Author's note: Surprised to see that I ended up adding Willis to the story? Like I said before, the story's gonna liven up. And to those
who haven't seen Digimon the movie, Willis was an addition character the whole gang met with when they visited America. He is also
a genius, like Ken is. Enough with the background info now, time for chapter 4.
Forgiveness-Chapter 4
Everyone was very surprised to find Willis at Davis's door, but one question still stood.............
Who's house was he going to stay with? Davis wanted Willis to stay at his place since he was already there, but his parents were too
busy to let him stay with them. Despite this, TK volunteered to let Willis stay at his place since his mother had to attend a business trip
that weekend.
Later that night.
"Man, am I exhausted." Willis said tiring .
That day, they decided to show their friend a tour of Tokyo. There were many attractions to see and places to see, that before Willis knew
it, he was already tired and exhausted. Anyway it was already 9 o'clock by the time they finished showing him the city. Before they left,
they contacted Tai, Matt, Mimi, Sora, Izzy, and Joe about they message they received from Geni and they all eagerly decided to go. Since
Mimi was still living in New York, she said that she would go through a different portal from there and meet up with the others in the
digital world.
"Yeah, even a few of the sites we saw where places I never visited before." TK responded.
"How bout you Terriermon, did you have a good time?" Willis asked his little companion.
"I never new there could be such a big city with pretty lights in an island like this. I had a lot of fun."
"Yeah me too. Hey thanks TK for you and the others to show me around the city."
TK just smiled a bit "No need to thank me. When you're with friends like us, fun is always around the corner."
"Well we better hit the sacks. Terriermon is getting sleepy and I'm sure Patamon is as well. We got a busy day tomorrow if we're going
to find those digieggs and crests." said Willis.
TK started to crawl underneath his bed covers while Willis laid on his sleeping bag. Their two digimon decided to sleep on the living
room couch so they could have a comfy slumber.
"Yeah, I could use the sleep too. Oh and one more thing. If I start to snore, just whack me with your pillow and I'll stop." With that Willis
started laugh a bit.
"Oh I'm sure I could remember that."
"K, well good night Willis."
"Good night TK."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After about an hour, TK tried and tried to go to sleep, but he couldn't. Still his heart kept thinking about Kari. Was I wrong to say what I
did to her that night? Maybe I was a bit harsh on her. Damn now I'm really starting to feel bad TK then heard some shuffling from his
friends sleeping bag. Hoping he was awake he asked silently "Hey Willis, are you still up?"
"Yeah, I guess I'm just a bit excited about tomorrow. So how have you and Kari been doing?"
He had to ask that question. Well maybe Willis could help me with my problem. But should I really tell him the whole story?
"We're doing fine, I guess" TK lied.
"You guess? TK is there something wrong with you and Kari? I know for a fact that you used to have feelings for her, and I would think
you still do. Are you mad at me because I gave her a little kiss the last time we met at New York after we defeated Cocomon?"
TK was surprised "No, not at all. I know you just did to make Davis jealous and all, but that's not the point. How did you know I had
feelings for Kari?"
"Come on TK. You can't fool me. I've got eyes, don't I? Anyway you could say I have a sixth sense by telling people's emotions through
physical reactions. You two would always be together, talk with each other, laugh all the time, and basically just having a good time. At first
I thought that you two were just learning to become closer friends and when I came back, I thought by now you told Kari your true feelings.
I guess I was wrong, wasn't I?"
Slowly accepting the truth, TK barely responded "Yes"
Well there's no turning back now, I'd better tell him the story
"So TK, why don't you spit it out and tell me what happened between you two."
"Alright, this is what happened................" And TK explained what happened last night and how they got through a big argument when he
was planning on telling her his feelings for her.
"So that's what happened. I remember hearing about the Darkwargreymon crisis at one time, and I would think what she was getting at.
And this is all over about the purity of your hearts." Willis commented.
TK started to grow a bit angry from remembering that night. "She had no right to get so upset with me nor say anything she said that night!"
"Actually TK, I would say that it's also your fault. You were the one who actually started it, based on what I just heard. It was you who gave
a sarcastic reply after she gave you a complement of you having a good heart. Don't you think?"
What?!! It was me who started this horrible argument? No it can't be! I refuse to believe it. I won't believe it
"What are you talking about? So you're saying it was my fault that this started?" TK responded.
"No, I'm not saying that. All I'm saying that this isn't all just one person's fault. Can't you get it through your head? It's both, you and Kari's,
fault. You sort of started it and she pursued the argument. Can't you see that?"
Never! I can't. How can I admit I was wrong?
"Willis, I'm really starting to get sleepy and it's already 2:30 in the morning. I say we should get back to bed and get as much sleep as we can."
TK replied, trying to avoid the subject.
Willis knew that it was late and they really needed the sleep, but that was just an excuse to get off his back. Anyway he gave in to TK's bidding.
"Alright TK, your right. But before you go to bed, I want to make this clear to you. You still have time to apologize to her. I'm sure she will
welcome you back with open arms. You can't lie to yourself for long. If you do, pretty soon it will be too late for forgiveness and she will be gone
before you know it. And then you'll see all hope of getting back together lost. Remember that. Good night TK." And with that Willis was fast asleep.
This made TK fall in deep thoughts until he too feel in a deep slumber.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also during that night
Kari went to her room after an exhausting walk through the city with the gang and Willis. They decided to show him while they were there since he
wouldn't be able to see the city and they were going to be busy tomorrow. She was well beyond tiredness and just wanted to go to sleep. However
a part of her still mourns over what happened last night and she knew that sleep wouldn't come so easily.
As she entered, she saw Gatomon just laying in her basket, still awake and waiting for Kari. She had a worried look on her face when Kari spotted her.
"Kari we've got to talk" Gatomon started.
(oh no, I hope she doesn't suspect what I think she does) "About what?" Kari said in a neutral tone, pretending not to know where her friend was
trying to go.
"About what's going on between you and TK. I could tell something was wrong after that little fight today you had with him. And don't play stupid
with me cause after so long I would know when you're lying or not." Gotomon was right. For years, her companion has always been on her side,
protecting Kari from any danger. They had a great relationship and told each other almost everything. Almost.
"What are you talking about? There's nothing going on between me and ......him" she said.
(TK, why is it that you won't stop haunting my soul. I wonder if TK is having the same affect with himself. No, he can't. He didn't love me. He wasn't
crazy about me. But I was. I loved everything about him. Now everything about him is being turned against me. He's probably at home, laughing with
Willis about the situation we had last night. Maybe at least I can shed some of this pain with Gatomon, and maybe that'll help)
"I can't fool you can I?" Gatomon shook her head in response. "Well, if you really want to know, this is what's wrong......
So Kari went on, explaining the whole argument with her companion.
"Clearly, to tell you the truth, I don't know where you guys went wrong." Gatomon said after hearing her friends story.
(Oh I know where it went wrong. It was only that one question. "Isn't there things in your life you never regret?". I hoped with all I had he would say
my name. Say that he loved me as much as I did for him. But now he doesn't seem the same person I fell in love with 7 years ago. He's.......a monster!
How can I love a monster?)
"I'll tell you where it went wrong....it was when he accused me of calling him a person without a heart after I said he had a true, kind heart. Oh, that TK is
so ignorant!" Kari slammed her fist down in her table, shaking it a bit. Then she notice drops of water appearing of the table and found out they were her
tears.
"Kari, please don't cry. Please? I don't where you got an idea like that, but you need to snap out of it. You and TK have been friends for such a long time.
You two have faced danger countless times, while me and Patamon have been there to protect you guys. But we didn't protect you all the time. No, it
was TK who did. Always easing your pain whenever you had a bad day. Or protecting you from Piedmon when we faced him that dark day. We may protect
you from physical harm, but he protects you from letting your heart being broken. And this isn't the TK, that we know. Just give him some time and in no
time, he'll be back to normal. He has done so much for you. Never forget that as long as you live." With that, Kari was speechless to think what to say next.
(Gatomon, I know you are so right, but if you were me you would see love is more complicated than just a human emotion. But you were right about the fact
that he has done so much for me. Maybe I should apologize to him. No, not yet. Possibly another time, but not now. We got the world to worry about now.
Then, perhaps afterwards, I'll spare him some forgiveness. )
"I'll leave you thinking about that, but now I'm going to get a good cat's sleep" Gatomon said as she started to lay down in her basket.
"Gatomon, thanks for everything" were the only words Kari said to express her thankfulness for her close friend. But Gatomon was already fast asleep.
"Well, I'd better hit the bed as well. I have a long day tomorrow."
And with that, she turned off the lights, and for the first time that night she smiled as she surrendered herself to the darkness.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sunday Morning - 9:40 at Izzy's house
"Prodigious, we really are going to be able to go to the digital world once again?" Izzy asked Cody.
"Yeah, that's right. Well that's what that guy Geni said to us." Cody answered
"Oh, then I think I can take your word for it then. Geni has been a great help to us in the past and it seems he will be helping us again."
Tai, back in his leadership ego again, said "Well guys, what are we waiting for? Lets contact Geni and go for it!"
Joe, Sora, and Matt were also there with the rest of the gang. Everyone seemed to be ready. Of course, Yolei brought a bunch of food from her family's store,
incase they had to stay longer than they were supposed to. Willis was probably the most excited member out of the 12 of them. He never went to the digital
world and this would be his first time. Though he has heard many stories about their adventures in the digiworld, he wanted to experience this for himself.
Also Terriermon was excited to see his real home, from where he was born from, and see what it was like.
Then all twelve of them reached for their digivice and contacted Geni. He appeared to them through Izzy's computer.
"Before I open the portal, I must warn you. The digital world has recently been plaqued with an unknown force of evil and darkness. It seems the prophecy
will affect this world before yours. But be ready for any danger you might come upon, since a few docile digimon have recently turned to have such a hostile manner.
Also, for some reason, the time that is spent in the digital world in now doubled when compared to your time. Like if you spend half a day in the digital world, a day
will pass in your world. So you guys better find those tags and digieggs as soon as possible if you want to make it back to Tuesday. When you guys find the tags
and digieggs, send a signal to me and I'll automatically trace signal so I can form the portal at your position at the time. Got it?"
"Got it!" Everyone yelled.
"Well all I can say is good luck and may you find that way back to send your world out of danger, as well as the digital world. Good bye" And with that the computer
opened up a dark blue portal.
"Here we go!" they said as they all stepped through the portal.
End of chapter 4
What new dangers await the digidestined at the digital world. Will it be the same place they once knew? Are TK and Kari thinking of apologizing to one
another? Will their friends words help them step back into their relationship? All of this and more coming up in chapter 5.................
who haven't seen Digimon the movie, Willis was an addition character the whole gang met with when they visited America. He is also
