Chapter 9
Keroake Campout
I know that there are a few spelling errors in this, especially Keroeke, but my computer isn't telling me if I spelt it correctly. Oh well, enjoy. The next chapter will be out sooner than it took this one.
Insert standard disclaimer here.
The Digidestined had been listening to Shawn's story for the past hour or so, they were starting to get tired and just decided to stay where they were for the night. "I have an idea, Iz do you have your Laptop?" Shawn asked.
"Sure I do, why?"
"Because I think we should relax from our little battles for today." Shawn said holding up his pack of CD's "Just one question first, how long will your batteries last with music playing?"
"Actually, the batteries should last for at least two to three more hours, maybe more. Why do you ask?"
"I thought we could get a little singing going on, and since I have the music you have the speakers that we need. The only problem is all the songs are in English and you guys might not know them, not to mention the selection is limited." Shawn said as he explained his idea to the group.
"Well, we could all use a little R&R right about now." Tai said. He was wondering if it was a good idea to start singing out in the open. Strategically it wasn't the best idea, but on the other hand, it could do some good for their moral.
"So Tia, what do you think?" Matt asked. He knew just what was going on the old leader's head at that moment. The idea of being caught off guard was not appealing, but they could use a good laugh.
"I say… lets go for it, but we have to find a place to camp for the night first." Tai said to the group who were now jumping for joy.
"Anybody have any ideas?" Davis asked.
"How about that way towards the mountains. There should be some caves near by to provided good cover." Ken spoke up.
"I think this one will do for the night, what about you Matt?" Tai asked his friend.
"Looks good, why don't we get the fire set up first, eat and go through the CD's to see what there is." Matt added. They quickly got the camp set up and sat down to eat their dinner.
Mimi, who hadn't said anything in a while finally spoke up. "Why not after the singing, we play some games?"
"Like what?" Matt asked.
"Oh nothing to big, just a little truth or dare…"
"NO!!" All the boys chorused at once. None had any desire to be made fools of that night, or any night for that matter. Mimi started to pout.
"Well how about next time we do that?" Cody said trying to calm done the girl.
"Really, you mean that?" She exclaimed.
"Cody, you have no idea what you just got us into." Joe sighed.
"How's about we look at the music to see what we want to sing." TK said trying to relieve the tension in the group. Everyone then ran over to Shawn's CD's to see what they would sing first.
By luck of the draw, Davis was to go first. Using the Discman, he found a song on the first CD he listened to. It also happened to be a song he knew in English as well. While everyone was settling down, Davis set up for his song with Izzy's help of course.
Kari sat with TK and it was making Davis uneasy. 'This will show Kari that I'm better then TG' he thought.
"Yo Davis, you ready?" Tai asked.
"Ya. But first I would like to dedicate this song to a very special person. I won't say her name, because she already knows how I feel." He said looking at Kari. Who looked away from him.
"So then, lets get started, Iz start his music." Shawn said.
Izzy nodded and the music started to play. Shawn laughed a little at the song Davis chose. And only those who understood English soon found out why he was laughing.
"I'm in over my head…" Davis started. He was absolutely clueless about the song's actual meaning until after he was finished and it was explained to him.
"You mean you were laughing at the words and not my singing?" He exclaimed.
"Well not exactly, we were also laughing at your singing as well, but mainly the words to the song." Said Kari.
"Okay, fine then lets see what you got Kari." Davis said trying to be sarcastic.
"You'll see me sing, but I've decided to have back up, and I'll be going after Ken though." She said with a smirk. She then looked over at TK and gave him a wink.
Ken had found a song that he thought was just perfect. He figured if Davis started the trend of singing songs that match the personality, this one would work for him. "Alright, since Davis started this, I'm going to continue the trend of singing songs that will have a meaning to it." He explained. Shawn heard the drums go off when the music started and was both happy and upset at the same time.
'He took my song, oh well I have lots of others to choose from at least.' Shawn thought.
Ken started to sing the song. "This ain't a song for the broken hearted. A southern prayer for faith departed. I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd, gonna hear my voice when I shout out loud, IT'S MY LIFE, IT'S NOW OR NEVER, I AIN'T GONNA LIVE FOREVER I JUST WONNA LIVE WHILE I'M ALIVE CAUSE IT'S MY LIFE…" Ken continued the song with an energy only seen once before, except now it was being put to good use. After Ken had finished, Wormon explained the choice in the song.
"When Ken was feeling sorry for himself, nothing would cheer him up, and then this song came on the radio and started to play. For some reason, it seemed to help him take control of his life again." Wormon explained.
"You know something, that same song did the same for me. When I first heard it, I realized that I shouldn't be so shy of others." Informed Shawn.
"So Kari, ready to sing yet?" TK asked.
"You'll have to wait a minute, we have to do some things first. Maybe you should go next." Kari suggested. 'I hope TK likes this.' She thought.
"Sure, I or we have to find a song first." TK indicated to the group of guys.
"Hey, count me out of this one TK, I'm going solo" Shawn said.
"Me too. I have a song I'd like to sing but I can wait." Cody also said.
"Well then, I think we should take a small break from all this singing, since were going to be up all night probably." Tai commented.
After fifteen minutes, everyone gathered around the campfire once again to hear the next song. Kari and her 'band' got up in front of the others and got ready to start. All the guys noticed that all the clothes they were wearing were tied up in bunches exposing their midsections. All the boy's jaws dropped at this site. Davis wiped some blood from his nose and some droll from his mouth as he stared at all the girls, especially Kari with a glazed look on his face. They didn't announce the title of their song they were singing, but as soon as Katie started to speak, Shawn looked at his sister in complete shock.
"Lady's and Gentlemen, welcome to the Moulin Rouge." Katie announced.
Sora began to sing, "Hey sister, soul sister…" She walked around the cave dancing and singing in a way that no one expected her to. She walked up to Tai, and was putting her arms around him in the most interesting ways. Mimi started to sing next, and also around the cave singing and dancing to the music. She moved towards Matt and started to do the same things as Sora had done. Ken nearly passed out when Yuolie started to sing next and moved towards him. She finished and now it was Kari's turn to sing. Tai and Shawn were both looking at Kari with those priceless expressions of theirs. Shawn was impressed that Kari was keeping up with energy of Christina Auglara's voice on the CD. Then it came down to the course, and Shawn, Matt and TK were the only ones who could speak French for the guys.
"Voulez vocus shais avec mois, ser sois." (A/N Sorry for the spelling, it's been forever since I've had to write out French, so I know that it isn't the way to spell most of the words.) Kari looked to TK and gave him a wink the same as Mimi did for Matt. Shawn, Matt and TK all looked at the girls in complete shock as they finished the song, it then took a few minutes for the three to recover from the way the girls were acting.
"Um, does someone want to explain why you three look like fools?" Asked Tai. He didn't remember a word of the French that he had been taught by his brother.
Shawn answered Tai's question. "Basically it translates into 'Will you sleep with me tonight.'"
"What! Kari, did you just ask TK-…" Tai was cut off by the ice cold glare that she was giving him.
Davis couldn't take it any more of the situation. He stormed off into the nearby forest. Yolie started to run after him.
"I think we should leave him by himself right now." Ken said as he grabbed her arm.
"Right, Cody I believe you are next." Piped up Izzy.
"Yes, thank you Izzy. I picked my song from Queen.
The music began as Cody stood there ready to sing. "Here we are, born to be Kings, we're the princes of the Universe. I am immortal, I have inside me blood Kings, I have no rival, no man can be my equal, send me to the future…" Cody sang on. The others were surprised that Cody was singing a song with emotion in it. It was certainly the biggest surprise of the evening. Cody bowed and thanked everyone for the round of applause he received.
"TK, you're up next with your group." Izzy informed him.
T.K. looked at Tai and then Matt as they started to get. He went over to them and spoke to them quietly. "Guys, I have a song that I just thought of, but it's kinda solo."
"Fine, but nothing like what Kari just sang to us got it." Tai stated with an ice cold glare.
"Sure, no problem Tai. I just thought up a song for my angel of light, that's all." TK walked over to Izzy and told him of the change. Izzy just looked at him for a second and a wide smile grew on his face. TK then stepped into the centre of the group just as Davis returned to the outer rim of the clearing.
"Stupid TE. I'm not gonna let him stand between me and my Kari (A/N : Davis is becoming a little too possessive for my taste, but this is his character, that is the only reason why I don't like Davis at times). Just as he was about to tackle TK, he heard the music start.
"Girl you're my angel you're my darling angel, just lift your wings baby…" (a/n: Sorry if I don't get all the words correct in the songs).
Just as TK finished his song, Davis jumped out from where he was hiding and tried to tackle him. Davis' crest could have really been useful right about now, because he was going to need his Persistence in begging to avoid being beaten not only by Matt, but Kari as well.
"LET ME GO!! LET ME GOOOOOO!!!!!!!" Davis shouted. He was struggling against Matt's grip. However, Matt wasn't the one he had to be worried about, because Kari came up and slapped some sense into Davis leaving a red mark on his face. Davis slowly brought his hand up to his face and held his check while looking at Kari.
"That does it Davis, I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times, I don't belong to you! The next time you try something like this, I will no longer be your friend." Kari screamed as stomped away from Davis who was shaking visibly. The minute she turned around and glared at him, Davis took off running.
Shawn got up and started in the direction of Davis, but was stopped by TK. "Let me talk to him, I might be able to calm him down a bit." TK took off after Davis and was running at full speed. When he caught up to Davis, he was shocked to find him crying behind the stump of a dead tree. TK got a little closer and stopped as Davis finished a final deep sob and turned. When TK saw Davis look right at him he never expected Davis' right fist to meet him in the chest or the next one that hit his face. As TK got up, he was dazed and coughing, and wasn't too sure about what he saw. There was Davis in front of him, on his knees bowing and apologizing to him. TK saw the tears and walked up slowly to Davis.
"I never meant to hurt her like that, and I never meant to hurt you." Davis spoke softly. "You know TK, everyone there is right, you to can't exist without each other, I would need a miracle to even get that close to Kari." He sighed. "TK, do you think that she could ever fore give me?" As Davis spoke his crest began to change.
"Don't worry Davis, Kari's just a little upset right now. I'm sure she can forgive you, it's in her nature just like Mimi." TK insisted. "I tell you what lets head back to the camp sight and start from the beginning." TK smiled as he brought Davis to his feet.
"I guess your right, and TK," Davis stood to his full height.
"What is it Davis?"
"If you ever hurt Kari, I swear that no one will know how much I will make you suffer." Davis said with an evil glint in his eye.
"Davis, I wouldn't have it any other way." TK and Davis laughed as they headed back towards the camp.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
TK and Davis came back in lifted spirits as they got back into the camp. When they got there, Davis went over to Kari and whispered something into her ear. She slowly turned to him and smiled and gave him a quick hug. Tai and Shawn relaxed and turned to see Matt talking to TK who had a large bruise forming on his cheek.
"What happened TK?" Asked Matt who was on the verge of blowing up.
"Don't bro, Davis and I just had to set some things straight. And while we were at it, I think his crest changed." TK said quietly to his brother.
Shawn went to the centre of the group and looked at all of them and then looked up. "It's getting late, I think we should go to sleep, we have a big day tomorrow." And turned to go to sleep.
"Now just a minute Shawn," Kari said. "You still have to do your song."
Shawn sweat dropped and put his hand behind his head. "Oh ya, he, he, he. I forgot."
"Don't worry Shawn, you can sing just fine, go on." Kate encouraged.
"Alright, you convinced me, this is a little song I like to call Life, by Our Lady Peace."
As the fire died out in digiworld, an evil was laughing was heard in a small hut on the side of a mountain. There, inside was one the worst evils ever faced by any destined anywhere. There he was, the devil."
