Author's Note: Sorry for the long wait once again. Homework's been kind of big in the last few weeks.
Alien War Chapter 7Kari's Nightmare
'Get away from her you bitch!' Sigourney Weaver in 'Aliens'.
"Kari." TK said during English class.
"What is it, TK?" Kari replied moving her eyes away from her notebook and staring into the eyes of the blond boy.
"Hey, listen, do you want to maybe come out with me to the movies after school?" TK took out two small from his back pocket of his pants, waving them lightly in his fingers. Kari smiled and nodded.
"What film is it for?"
"A Beautiful Mind." Davis heard voices from his back and happened to take a slight glance round to see TK talking to Kari. It looked like he was about to lose his temper.
"What time?" Asked Kari.
"At around seven. We can grab some food there while we watch." Smiled TK.
"Sure! That'll be great, TK!" The two of them chuckled quietly while the spike headed Digidestined was the only person taking notice of the couple talking to each other. They soon began whispering to each other about film jokes that made Davis even more annoyed at what was happening. Things were really getting on his nerve.
"I'd buy that for a dollar!" Kari said to TK before they burst out in giggles. Davis was just about the shout before…..
"TK…..Kari….is everything all right down there?" The teacher asked kindly after having heard the two disrupt the lesson.
"I'm fine, Miss Lee." Said TK trying not to laugh anymore.
"And what about you, Kari……Kari…..?"
Kari's laughs vanished quicker than TK's. In fact, she stopped laughing in just a split second. Her mood suddenly turned to the worried look she always gave when she knew or felt something was not right. Kari put her hands onto her stomach and let out a loud groan.
"Kari, are you okay?" Asked Ms. Lee.
Kari's second groan sounded louder than the first. The pain inside her belly and chest grew rapidly as she suddenly fell from her chair and tumbled underneath her desk. Her arms wrapped tighter round her body. TK and Davis got out of their chairs while the others stared shockingly at the girl. Ms. Lee rushed to Kari immediately. She was followed by Davis and TK.
"Kari, are you okay?" Said Ms. Lee.
"My stomach…..*cough*…..my stomach hurts……*cough*….." Kari's body ached all over. She felt extremely sick inside. She felt like her body was changing. Kari opened her eyes and heard a voice calling to her. A voice that echoed through the room that Kari to kill them all.
"Kill them……." It said. The girl rushed out of the room trying to ignore the pain inside herself. Through the empty halls of the school she ran as fast as she could to the Girl's Bathroom. The excruciating agony increased and she let out a cry. The ache had already gone worse by the time she reached the door.
Pushing it open, she stepped to the sinks and leaned heavily onto the basin. Her heart began to beat as if it was trying to get out of its skeletal prison from all those years. Kari's hair looked wetter ever from her sweat as if she had just come out from a heavy rainstorm. And she breathed in and out trying to take in as much oxygen for energy. Her hands pressed onto the basin while Kari slowly raised her head to the mirror in front of her.
It was then that she suddenly gave a frightful gasp of endless terror. Parts of the skin of her face were beginning to turn black. The pain had now become unbearable. Her suddenly eyelids shut tight and she could no longer see anything that surrounded her. No matter how much she tried to open them it was no use. They were now stuck closed.
"AAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Kari screamed as she felt herself fall to the floor.
"AAAAA!!!!!!!! TK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Kari continued to shriek.
"KARI!" TK shouted when he heard the cry of Tai's sister. Immediately he rushed out of the classroom and was already running down the long dark corridor that only gave more screams of Ms. Kari Kamiya. The cries began to rise louder and TK speed up his pace, running past all of the other students and teachers opening the doors and watching TK run past them like the speed of light.
Kari's skin and body slowly transformed into black exoskeleton. The nails on her hands turned into sharp black claws that extended outwards from her fingers. It wasn't long until the nails on her feet began to rip out of her boots and also formed into claws. Her hair became a head crest and turned into a long smooth head that forwards and backwards, while her tongue began to from another mouth jaw. Her clothes were then torn off during the rest of her grotesque transformation. Furthermore, her high-pitched scream soon changed into low growling roar. And then……silence.
"Kari?" TK said walking slowly by the Boy's and Girl's bathrooms. Nobody answered his call. And there was not a single soul around. Things seemed a little quiet…….maybe too quiet……..
"Kari, where are…….YAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!" TK screamed as an alien xenomorph leaped out of the Girl's Bathroom and lunged onto TK, taking him to the ground. Its sharp claws penetrated through TK's shoulders and leaked out dark red blood. TK began to scream for help, but nobody came to his rescue. It was like the school had now become deserted. Holding him tight, the black creature then raised its head at TK, who was shaking with all his strength to get out of the monster's painful grip. It slowly opened its mouth, revealing yet another mouth jaw inside as numerous drops of saliva began to drip down from its outer jaw.
"No……..NO!!!!! KARIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
The jaw blasted out of its mouth, striking TK right into his brain, killing him instantly as blood splattered all over the floor and parts of TK's brain began to fall out of the giant hole in his head.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Kari screamed as she jumped up from her bed and moving her arms aimlessly while her legs shook like mad. Gatomon was the first one to wake up Patamon and TK to alert the sudden shouts from the Digidestined of Light.
"Kari! Calm down! Everything's okay!" TK dived onto the bed of his girlfriend and tried to grab her arms in order to settle things down.
"Don't touch me! Get away!" Kari continued to scream.
"Kari! It's us! We're not going to hurt you!" Said Gatomon trying to comfort her friend.
""Kari!" TK finally managed to grab Kari's head and shout directly into her face. Kari then opened her and stopped her screaming. "Kari…..it's okay……it was all a dream……it was a bad dream……you're safe here……."
"…..TK…..?" Kari said in a broken voice.
"Gennai, myself and a few others managed to rescue you from that hive……they're now getting our other Digimon friends to help……..please…..Kari…..you're safe here……I'll look after you……….." Kari looked around the room and saw that she was in TK's room. It had already turned dark and the only light in the room was the light of the moon shining through the windows nearby.
"TK…….I was so scared…….those things I saw in that cave……..they were so horrible………" Kari began to cry silently into TK's shoulder, while the Digidestined of Hope took her into his arms and rocked her gently sideways, like a mother would to her weeping baby. "TK……you should have seen them……they did terrible things to me……..I tried to scream…..but I couldn't……"
"Shhh……don't cry……..everything's going to fine……because I'm here……and I'll always be here……for you……"
Elsewhere……..
The park was silent that night. Surprisingly reason there didn't seem to be anyone about around where Tai and Sora were walking along.
"Thanks for taking me home, Tai." Said Sora.
"Oh, it's nothing. Guess it's a little chilly tonight. Wonder where everyone is." Said Tai looking round the deserted park.
"Yeah, where did everybody go? It's not like it's THAT cold to take a walk round the park."
Sora suddenly heard a rustle in the trees.
"Did you hear that?" Said Sora putting her hands onto Tai.
"Hear what?"
Nothing.
"Say, Tai. Have you seen anything strange happening round Odaiba lately?"
"Well, no, not really. Just those bizarre murder cases running round the world. Pretty creepy stuff if you ask me." Replied Tai.
"Do you ever get that feeling as if we're being followed?"
"I don't see anybody here."
"I just feel strange walking down this area of the park." Said Sora. "You know, a few days ago after my tennis match I kind of heard something following me."
"Don't worry, Sora. I'm here, aren't I?" Said Tai.
"Well, what happens if you aren't? I mean, Tai, there's just something suspicious going on. It may have something to do with all those killings. Hearts torn out. Head and spinal columns removed, people getting skinned and hanged upside down." Sora let go of Tai and walked forward ahead of him. "….*Sigh*…..are you scared, Tai?"
"Um…." Tai began to hesitate at Sora's face, "Well, I guess we all are, aren't we?" Tai then began to think something for Sora's surprise. "Like….you'd be scared if I do…….this……..!"
"TAI! STOP IT!" Sora laughed as Tai ran up tom him and lifted her from the ground when he grabbed her waist. "PUT ME DOWN!"
"KOOCHIE KOOCHIE KOO!!!!!!!!" Tai began to tickle her waists.
"STOOOP!!!! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! TAI! STOOP IT!!!!!!!"
The creature that had watched the couple since the afternoon continued its study on its worthy prey. On the branches of the tress it stood. Silent and invisible it was. It growled softly, opening its wrist blade and heating it up with the lasers of its shoulder cannon. Perhaps it was time to make a move.
"Champion." It said.
Elsewhere……
New York……
"Gosh, it's hot in here!" Said Bob the school janitor.
"You can say that again!" Said Gary the school plumber.
The two men had been asked to check the ventilation school shafts in the basement downstairs ever since the worm creature that burst out of Dr. Thurman had escaped. Nothing unusual had been found yet, though every now and then the two hear strange hissing sounds in every direction. They did everything they could to ignore their 'imaginary' hearings.
"You find anything?" Asked Bob.
"Nope. Everything's okay round here, Bob." Said Gary looking through one of the giant pipes on the ceiling. "Wait a second."
"What is it?"
"Bob, give me your flashlight, there's something moving down here." The janitor handed his flashlight to the plumber.
A loud hissing sound was heard.
"Did you hear that?" Asked Bob.
"It sounds like we got ourselves some sort of snake or something." Said Gary. "I'll find out soon enough." At the instant Gary turned his flashlight onto the xenomorph resting in the pipe, the black creature shrieked in high pitch and in just a split second crawled up to the curious plumber and pulled him into the pipe. "AAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Gary!" Bob cried as he saw his friend get hurled into the tube.
"NOOOOO!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Blood bursted out of the pipe and some of it landed onto Bob's pale face. And everything broke back to tranquility.
"Gary……?………..Gary…..what's going on up there?" Bob began to climb up to the pipe despite the worst fears he could think of about his friend. "Gary……are you……"
Bob went silent as a giant sharp tail cut into his head and through his brain. His eyes crossed each other staring into emptiness as Bob choked out blood from his mouth. His body shaking due to the nerves within his body, before he was finally released from the xenomorph's tail. The creature came out from the pipe, looking down upon the human of which it had just killed. And it couldn't help but growl in delight. It then heard something from the floor above. It looked like something big was going upstairs. Maybe it would be a good idea to check it out.
"Go Matt, go!" Cried Jun in Odaiba watching play his concert in New York.
"Are you ready to rock?" said Matt among the screaming crowd of girls. "I said, are you ready to rock?"
"Are you ready to rock?" The invisible creature mumbled to itself on top of the ceiling from high above.
"Gosh, I wonder where Mimi is…." Said Matt to himself. Nevertheless, there was a large crowd cheering for him. He had to perform with without her. "Let's go, guys."
The music was played to the max. Screams began to grow among the audience. Light began to glitter everywhere. Yet the creature avoided everything at all costs. It continued its watch on the singing Digidestined, ready to strike him any second from where it stood.
"Oh, God! I have to warn him!" Cried Mimi rushing through into the concert.
"Mimi, where are you going?" Said Michael.
"Backstage! I hope that thing doesn't get Matt!"
"Mimi, calm down. Someone's already sorting that 'thing' downstairs. I'm sure they've the problem."
"I know…." Said Mimi clutching her fists together, "….but I just feel something bad is going to happen any minute. I just can't get this feeling out of my head! What was that thing? What if that thing that came out of Dr. Thurman's chest had grown or something? I have to tell Matt!" Before Michael could answer back Mimi had already vanished into the ocean of girls in the concert.
Mimi made her way through the long pathway of shouting girls to Matt. The hunter caught sight of the purple haired girl approaching the front of the stage. It was the same it had seen in the past few days. It closed its sight on the female Digidestined. And it decided to play her voice of which it had recorded not long ago.
"This is disturbing…….this is disturbing……this is disturbing……."
"MATT!!!!!!!" Mimi waved her arms at Matt, who at first didn't notice her anxious warnings she was trying to give. "MATT!!!! OVER HERE!!!!!!!!!" After minutes of trying to get the blond singer's attention, Matt finally set eyes upon Mimi and looked at her in surprise.
"Mimi……" Matt said to himself.
"MATT!!!!!" Matt's first song ended and the crowd grew with shouts of joy. Matt was able to hear Mimi a little more clearly.
"Mimi!" Matt smiled happily. He walked towards the edge of the stage as Mimi rushed forwards. Matt bent down to Mimi and set his ears on his girlfriend. "Mimi, glad you could make it!"
"Matt, I have to tell you something!" Said Mimi in a worried tone.
"What is it?" Asked Matt.
"Listen, something really freaky happened here recently!"
"Wh….what happened?"
"Well, my biology teacher died because of this…..thing that burst out of his chest!" Matt did nothing but gave a frowning look.
"Mimi, are you feeling okay?"
"Matt, I'm not lying! That thing could be here at very minute!" Cried Mimi.
"Aw, come on, Mimi. Nothing's happened so far, what do you think….." Matt was interrupted when a drop of liquid suddenly dripped down from the ceiling. Matt and Mimi looked down at the black spot made onto the floor. It seemed volatile as it burned fiercely through the ground, evaporating in just seconds. It burned…..like some kind of acid…….
"AAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" A girl screamed as she pointed up to the ceiling at the black xenomorph that hung on top of the stage bars.
"MATT!!!!!!! LOOOOOOK!!!!!!!" Mimi pointed out.
"JESUS CHRIST!!!!!!!!" Matt exclaimed before he turned around to see his band fleeing for their lives not even thinking a spec about their lead singer. "Mimi, stay back!"
Girls fled for the emergency exits and cries of joy turned into shouts of fear. Jun on the other hand in Odaiba gasped in terror upon the creature that the camera man had set it's screen upon.
"What in the name…..?" Jun said to herself, before the camera suddenly blurred out completely. "No! Put it back on you bastards!" Jun began shaking the TV vigorously to and fro.
"Come on down, you." Said Matt angrily gripping his guitar firmly in his hand, "Nobody messes Matt's concerts!" More saliva of the creature dripped down onto the floor while Mimi watched helplessly. It finally came to its senses and let go of the bars, landing successfully on its two feet. "You're on disgusting son of a bitch, aren't you?" Said Matt circling the creature.
"Matt, be careful!" Cried Mimi. By this time the area was completely empty. All that remained were the creature, Matt and Mimi.
"Okay, mister," Said Matt trying not to lose his courage over the slimy monster, "give me your best shot!" Matt was about to swing his guitar onto his enemy, but then the creature at the same time swung its black spiny tail upon its prey which managed to cut Matt in his left arm through his jacket and shirt. "GAH!!!!" Matt shouted as he dropped his guitar and clutched for his bleeding arm. The xenomorph made its move by jumping onto Matt and slamming him onto the floor.
"NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!" Cried Mimi.
"GET OFFFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Shouted Matt struggling with the creature that was already opening its mouth, revealing it's second jaw inside. Fortunately Matt managed to swing his right fist into the creature's head, causing it to lose slight concentration upon its victim. But then the xenomorph fought back by wrapping it tail round Matt's neck. "Aggggggghhhhhhhhh…………." Slowly it strangled him, and it once again began to open its hellish mouth.
"Leave him alone!" Cried Mimi. Suddenly the doors bursted from behind in the distance. And in came the blue mechanical cyborg making his way into the stadium, armed with a black MagSec 4 gun. The xenomorph detected the new visitor's presence and turned around to his direction, still gripping Matt with its tail.
"Your move, creep! Let him go!" Robocop pointed his gun at the ruthless insect.
"Who are you?" Mimi asked.
"Let the boy go now!" The xenomorph's only answer was a faint hiss of threat.
"Let…..him…….go………." The creature growled loudly at the cyborg and revealed its second jaw within its mouth that opened screaming in terror, threatening him to watch his step. At that moment Robocop pulled the trigger of his gunner that sent several bullets fly directly into the creature's inner jaw's mouth. The bullets then shot through the xenomorphs brain and out through the back of its head, killing it instantly. It fell backwards, letting go of Matt, who also lost his balance. When the two landed on the floor Matt moved away from the creature as he green liquid squirt out of its head slowly and watched in amazement when the green liquid burned through the floor of the stage within a very short period of time.
Mimi was shocked by everything that she saw. She couldn't quite control herself by now. Her fears rose again when she heard a gun cock and she looked up to discover yet another unknown creature setting three target dots onto her forehead. Mimi stood there absent mindedly, only looking more into the growling creature that was about to kill her.
"This is disturbing." She heard a recording of her own voice.
Robocop sensed something on top of the ceiling. He quickly turned his head up and set his targets on the visible creature's shoulder cannon looking down upon Mimi herself.
"Get down!" Robocop pushed Mimi away from the creature's sight and shot directly into the barrel of the shoulder cannon, causing the weapon to explode in flames. A loud bang was heard from above and not long after did a dead body of none other than the creature itself fall right next to Mimi. She jumped in fright when looking down upon the dead alien. It was covered in green shiny blood and its mask was completely blown apart.
"Murphy!" said Matt smiling at his rescuer. Robocop swung his MagSec 4 gun with his finger like some cowboy like he always did and inserted it back into his right leg container.
***
"Stay away from it." Said Robocop to the policemen as they examined the dead body of the xenomorph. "It's blood is made up of strong acid."
The police had arrived and all seemed back to normal, for now. News reporters had gathered to this scene but nobody managed to get hold of the two witnesses that saw everything that happened.
"Come with me. That wound must be treated with great care." Said Robocop as he escorted Matt into the ambulance, with Mimi following beside him, trying to comfort her boyfriend from the terrible shock.
"Thanks, Murphy." Said Mimi smiling at him as the two got into the ambulance. Murphy just nodded his head lightly as he closed the ambulance doors. It wasn't long before it drove off to hospital.
Robocop ignored all of the reporters that surrounded him as he made his way back to his vehicle. He drove off from the scene, not noticing the brown haired man watching him from the distance in a black Bronco van. The T-800 zoomed in on Robocop before he left his sight. Next to him sat 'Mimi', who said nothing and only stared to what was in front of her.
"They've destroyed the organism." Said T-800. "Perhaps it is time that we 'correct' them from what they've done."
"Let us go to the hospital." Said 'Mimi' turning her head slowly to her companion.
"Let's." Said the T-800 putting on his sunglasses and stepping on the peddle of the vehicle.
Elsewhere……
"You ready to go back home now, Kari?" said TK.
"Sure." Said Kari giving a slightly forced smile on TK.
"Don't worry, Kari. I'll take back to Tai's place. You'll be okay there. I promise." TK took Kari's hands and looked at her passionately. "We'll sort this out tomorrow, okay? Right now we all need take a rest and try to calm down from what's happened, all right?"
"Okay." Said Kari.
"Besides, you've Gatomon to protect you. So you shouldn't worry. Please?" Patamon suddenly entered TK's room.
"TK. Someone's at the door."
"I'll be there in a second, Patamon." Patamon left the two alone. "I'll be right back, Kari. Don't move." Kari smiled again and nodded her head.
"Hello?"
"TK, it's me."
"Oh, hi, mum." Said TK opening the door to let his mother into the apartment. "You're home early from work."
"Sorry for the surprise…..say, TK………..can I just talk to you for a few minutes in my room?" She asked. TK looked at her mother for a few silent seconds.
"Sure."
Mrs. Ishida let TK lead the way into her bedroom. Little did TK notice the slight she had on her face as he entered the bedroom. Mrs. Ishida stood beside the door leading into the room TK was now in. All of a sudden, a laugh was heard TK's mother.
"Huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh."
"Mom……….?" TK said not having turned to look at his mother yet.
"Stay right here……" The female voice soon changed into masculine voice while TK turned around to see his mother covered completely in silver liquid metal. To TK's shock, she soon changed into him, TK himself. It was like looking into a mirror that didn't in fact copy everything you did. "….Digidestined."
"What the………"
TK had already slammed the door shut, locking the door with his finger that turned into a key.
"HEEEY! LET ME OUT!!!!!!!!!! LET ME OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!" Shouted TK slamming his fists constantly on the door.
"TK, is everything okay?" Asked Gatomon to TK when she saw him enter the corridor from the bedroom.
"Yeah, everything's fine." TK nodded gladfully.
"TK?" Kari said looking back as the door creaked slowly open. In came TK, secretly locking the door from inside.
"Kari, it's me."
"TK, are you ready to leave now?" She said still sitting on TK's bed.
"Yeah……here let me get you up from there." Said TK raising his arm to Kari.
"Thanks, TK." Said Kari, not knowing of the trap she was about to fall into……
"MMMMMMPPPPPPHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!" TK suddenly took her arm tightly and twisted it. He then turned round and took a cloth filled with chloroform and stuffed it in Kari's face. Kari kicked and jumped to struggle from TK's firm grip as she breathed in the scent that would soon put her in deep sleep. This chloroform seemed stronger than any ordinary one. Kari tried to release herself from the strong grip. She moved fiercely and cried in tears just before she passed out completely.
TK let her go and lay her gently onto the floor. It was then TK was covered silver liquid again, changing form, into the familiar policeman with a white helmet and black sunglasses.
***
The policeman quietly sneaked out of the window of the apartment, carrying the unconscious Digidestined with her. Down the building he went. He did all he could not to make any noise in case anybody would see him kidnapping the young girl. With success, he made to the bottom, with Kari in his arms.
Three other figures appeared in the shadows that approached the young policeman. They marched together and halted when facing directly at the cop. He looked upon the Terminators: 'Tai', 'Sora' and 'Matt'.
"Make sure they don't interfere with this." Said the T-1000. "I'm bringing her to Cyberdyne HQ in Kyoto."
"Is it inside of the girl?" Asked 'Tai'?
"Yes. It is." Said 'Sora' walking up to Kari and clearing the threads of hair covering her face. 'Matt' put his ear into the young girl's belly.
"It's a Queen." He said.
"Make sure they don't find us. You understand?" The T-1000 ordered. The three Terminators nodded before they departed peacefully from the cop.
"You're one lucky girl……." The T-1000 whispered into Kari's ear.
Author's Note: Well, that's all for now. When can I get the next part up? Well, you're going to have to wait? How long? UNKNOWN!!!!!!! Sorry……. -_-
Does anyone know a good place where I can find the names of the other Digidestined from around the world?
