There really isn't anything for me to say this time around; except for something I've forgotten the last couple of chapters.
Disclaimer-I don't own Digimon or any of the characters involved with it.
-Chapter Five-
Davis P.O.V.
"Who are you?" asked T.K., but before I could respond he looked over my shoulder and notice Kari was standing behind me. "Kari, it's you!" yelled T.K., as he ran forward and caught her up in a long passionate kiss. After they had gone on long enough in my opinion I noisily cleared my throat. Kari quickly broke off the kiss and gave me a sheepish look. T.K. just turned and looked at me with this angry look of 'who do you think you are to get in my way' in that moment I could tell that T.K.'s two sides, the kind and the angry, had finally come together during my time in the Digital World.
"Oh yeah T.K.," said Kari in order to break the building tension, "I should tell you where I was, well, I was sucked into the Digital World and captured by evil digimon. After six days in a dungeon this man rescued me. Do you recognize him?"
T.K studied me for a while, and then noticed Demiveemon on my shoulder. "Davis, is that you?"
"Ooh, go it on your first try, you're quick." I replied with a sarcastic tone of voice.
"Davis, it's been a long time."
"Not long enough."
What am I doing? I thought I had gotten over all this, but seeing them kiss like that brought all those old feelings of jealousy back.
"I'm sorry about that T.K., I guess old habits die hard."
"That they do, apology accepted old friend."
"Hey, why don't you two come in, Matt and I were just about to sit down for supper."
"That sounds great, I'm starving!"
"Same old Davis," said T.K. with a smile.
"Actually, you'd be surprised how much he has changed in these last seven years," said Kari with a thoughtful look.
After greeting Matt we sat down to eat. T.K. even had some cookies to give the digimon. After dinner we told Matt and T.K. the details of the last two weeks. Kari even explained some of the things that had happened while she was held prisoner in the dungeon, things she hadn't told me yet. When I heard the things she said, they made me wish I had taken more time to make sure I killed all of the guards there. After we told them everything we still couldn't come with anything new, so we decided to just leave it at that until we got some more information. Soon they were telling me stories of the last seven years and before long it was eleven o'clock.
"Uh Kari, I can see that you two would like to have some alone time, so I'm going to leave now," I said in a rush of breath.
"Oh no Davis, we can leave now."
"Nah, don't worry about it, when you want to find me I think you know where I'll be."
Since it was hard enough just to leave them to be together, I decided I wouldn't say anything more. I left right then and there. I wandered aimlessly through the dimly lit streets, but I was not lost. Before I left T.K.'s I knew where I was going to go. Before long I was there, even in seven years I had never forgotten where it was. I was at the soccer field where I had played as a young boy. I wandered around the field replaying the past in my mind. It was strange, I often tried to remember my past but there was always a piece missing. It was not a big piece, just one memory that always seemed dark, like someone had closed it so I couldn't see it. When I got to a tree on one side of the field I found an old soccer ball rolled up next to the trunk. I picked it up and carried it to the center of the field; I set it down and began to imagine myself at one of my soccer games. I began to weep when I thought of my family and friend sitting in the stands and playing on the field, but that was a time I could never go back to. Suddenly the huge spotlights came on, I looked around to see what had done it and quickly spotted Kari walking out of the shadows next to the bleachers. She walked up to me and said,
"I thought you would be here."
"See, I told you that you would be able to find me if you wanted to."
"Why are you crying?"
"I was just remembering something."
She gave me a mischievous smile and said, "How about one last game, you and me, one on one?"
I smiled back and responded, "You read my mind."
And so, there under the clear night sky and full moon, we played a game of soccer, a game that, although I didn't know it then, would be the last game of soccer I ever played. Towards the end of the game we were both going for the ball, which had somehow gotten away from us. As we reached the ball we sort of tripped over each other trying to get at it. I landed on my back with Kari sprawled on top of me, her face looking straight into mine. We lay there in stunned silence for a while. Then we stood up and brushed ourselves off. We just looked at each other for a little while, and then I broke the silence.
"What about T…?"
"Shhh, not tonight, let's just go home and get some rest."
That said, she looped her arm in mine and we walked home in silence.
To Be Continued…
I hope you liked that, I know it was kind of short, but when I typed it I redid the ending and I decided that that was a good place to put the ending to this particular chapter. Once again please read and reply, I really appreciate it.
