Kari looked down at her watch again. Slowly taking in a deep breath she unplugged her heart monitor and closed her eyes. She felt a single tear run down her cheek as she quietly removed all the medical equipment that she had been hooked up to. She wiped her tears and looked down upon her silver locket that hung around her neck. She opened it and looked at the picture within. On the left side was a picture of TK and on the right was an inscription. Hope & Light Together Forever. "Together forever," Kari sighed, "if it's meant to be." She closed her locket and looked at her watch one last time. It read one minute. She closed her eyes and tried to relax for what was coming.
***TK***
He couldn't sleep at all. He turned on his radio and listened to the blastings of Blink-182's latest hit. (AN: Just for Laura and Jenna!) Suddenly a flash of light outside directed his attention to the window. He looked outside to see a beam of light coming out of the sky that shone down on the ground. Something inside him told him that something was wrong. Without a thought to what he looked like or what time it was he tore out of his house towards the light. The cold night air nipped at his skin as he dashed across a street almost running into a street light. Beads of sweat appeared on TK's brow, but he simply ignored it and carried on. Nothing could've stopped him.
Close to ten minutes of high speed running had passed before he reached what the beam of light was shinning on. The hospital was surrounded by the light creating an astounding glow that was truly breath taking. TK shook with fright as he watched in awe. Finally he left his dazed state and trudged closer to the light. He stopped only inches from the outer part of the beam. He reached his hand into the glorious light and slowly walked into the beam. His eyes were forced closed by the intense light. Using his other senses he tried to get into the hospital to find Kari.
***Kari***
Kari gripped her locket tightly in her hand as she slowly started to ascend into the air. The roof of the hospital blew open and her room filled even more with the light from the beam. She too was forced to close her eyes because of the intense light. She felt herself rising higher and higher into the sky but she felt no pain. She swallowed hard as she felt her heart stop beating.
***TK***
TK did not know where he was going but some how he got to Kari's room. But as soon as he opened her door the beam of light disappeared and he was free to open his eyes. His eyes darted to the hospital bed, but it was empty. He ran over to the bed and ripped it's sheets and covers apart hoping to discover her hiding beneath them. Then continuing this action he searched the entire room only to find nothing. He sat down on the bed and cried for what seemed like an eternity. He knew she was gone, but where and why? He reached for a kleenex on the bedside table but his hand bumped into something. It was a tape. He picked it up and examined it carefully, it was labeled Takeru. Wiping his tears away with his sleeve he pocketed the tape and continued to look around the room only to discover two more tapes labelled Taichi and Mom & Dad. He pocketed them aswell. After a few minutes of looking through the room he couldn't take it anymore. He broke down in tears again and eventually fell asleep curled up in a corner.
***Tai***
Tai headed for the hospital bright and early to get Kari released from the hospital. He was sitting in his car at a stop sign when something on the radio caught his attention. "Earlier today the Odablia Hospital was the subject of an unexplanable happening, the roof to the hospital was blown sky high and the resident, that was staying within the room that seems to be the main area effected, has disappeared." After that Tai flew down the streets paying no attention to the honking of car horns and the yelling of the drivers.
***TK***
"I keep telling you! I got here after!" TK yelled harshly at a police officer.
"We're sorry for this sir but we need to know all the facts." the officer told TK as he wrote down something on his note pad.
"Alright, what else?" TK asked with exhaustion.
"What relationship did you have with the victim?"
"She was... she was my... I loved her..." TK trailed off. The officer looked at him sympathetically and put a hand on his shoulder.
"Where the hell is my sister?!?" Tai yelled as he pushed his way through the sea of police investigators.
"Tai!" TK said as he ran to him.
"TK where is she?"
"I don't know Tai... I'm sorry."
"You shouldn't be sorry, the son of a-" he was cut off by TK.
"Tai I think you should see this." TK revealed the tape that was for Tai.
"What's this?"
"Just listen to it."
Oh is this any good? please R&R! ~Shibs~
