This is the next part/ chapter or whatever you want to call it. Daisuke's not treated too kindly in this one, so if you're a Daisuke fan, sorry (but it isn't really that bad I swear! I just don't want to step on anyone's toes you know?) I know the first was really short, so I was in a hurry to load up this one. I hope you didn't get bored with the first one and decided to forget about the rest of my fanfic... Well, if you're reading this, then you probably didn't so I should be really glad and grateful and.... I'll be quiet now. ^-^0
Hope you enjoy! Please R+R!

Part Two
The Mysterious Boy
Lunch time. Kari and her friend, Miyako sat together outside, as they always did, eating their lunches. Miyako was maybe a year older than she was. She had light brown eyes behind some glasses and long, straight lavender hair. She was a nice, very energetic person and fun to talk to. Her main conversation topic were usually boys. She especially talked about one boy with Kari.
"SOO, did you see him this morning?" she asked, anxious for her answer.
Kari bent over her lunch in her lap and turned a bright red. "Uh, yeah." she replied with a little hesitation.
"AW! Don't be so shy! I know you love him." Miyako reminded. "I can't blame you either, he's so cool! He's absolutely gorgeous, smart, mature, and talented, you have good taste!" Miyako complimented. "You're even more lucky that he's your older brother's best friend too, which means you can see and talk with him almost every day!"
"I suppose. But, I can barely say anything to him without blushing so much. He probably just sees me as Tai's dorky younger sister."
"Yeah right! There's a possibility he can like you too you know! Don't give up hope!" Miyako reminded. Enter bright sparkling background "Yeahhh...Maybe one day, he'll confess he loves you with all his heart and wants to be with you forever, but was too shy to admit it. Then, you confess your love to him. He smiles with the most beautiful of smiles, and kisses you with the most sweetest of kisses, then carries you off into the sunset...." Miyako sighed, pleasantly blushing into her romantic world. Kari couldn't help but get caught up in the vision as well. She was all smiley and giddy as Miyako was just imagining all that she described.
"KAAARRRIIII!!!!" a voice called, that interrupted their fantasy. They both turned to where they heard the voice came from, groaning from having to leave their bright little world.
"Oh great. It's Daisuke." Miyako said as if his name was a curse.
A boy that was the same age as Kari came running towards them. He had spikey brown hair and dark brown eyes. He reminded Kari a lot of her older brother, look-wise. But, she still didn't like him that much. He always stalked her around and bothered her by asking her out. She hastily rose up from her seat as he drew closer.
"Uh, I just remembered I have to go help the teacher with something!" she said and dashed away as quickly as she could. Leaving Miyako staring dumbfounded, (and a little jealous that she wasn't as quick) to her retreat.
Kari ran and turned to hide behind a red brick wall. She laid against it with a sigh of relief. "Urgh, when is Daisuke going to get the picture that I don't like him." she mumbled annoyed. "This is getting tiring..."
"KAARRIII! Hey where'd you go?!" she heard. She knew right away whose voice it was, and it was someone she did not want to deal with.
'He sounds close, I better keep moving!' Kari thought and turned to run off. But suddenly slammed into something and fell back. 'Urghhh.. what was that?' Holding her head from the unexpected collision, she looked up to see what it was that she had bumped into. Or rather, who. His form was blurry at first, probably still dizzy from when she bumped into him, but as her vision began to clear she saw a slowly recognized the form that stood before her. "Matt?" Kari could hardly believe it and blinked stunned. But, after sitting on the ground staring up at him for a minute, she saw his form fade away to another boy. He was the same age as she was and he had short blonde hair and the same blue eyes that Matt did. He stood in the same school uniform that the boys wore that went to her school, but Kari had never seen him around before. She was lost for words and could only blink with shock. He became the first one to break the silence between the them.
"You okay?" he asked in an even, almost unfeeling voice.
"Uh, um, ye-yeah. S-sorry for crashing into you like that." she said, slowly rising to her feet.
"It's okay. I wasn't hurt." he said in the same calm tone. It made her a little uncomfortable. "Were you hurt?" he asked.
"N-Nope! I'm fine!" she said with an uneasy smile.
"Okay then," Assured no harm was done, he silently turned away and walked off in the other direction.
"Wai-" but, he was out of sight before she could finish. She stood alone with an unsettling curiousity, staring towards the empty place where he once was. 'Who was that boy?'
"Hey Kari!" Kari nearly jumped up startled. She turned back behind her towards the friendly voice.
"Oh, Miyako," she sighed relieved.
"Yeah, Daisuke was challenged to another soccer game. You're safe for now girl!" Miyako said with a reassuring smile.
"Oh, good." Kari replied.
"Hm? What's wrong? Did something happen to you?" Miyako asked concerned at Kari's almost frightened expression.
"Uh, yeah. It was nothing!"
"You sure? You looked like you saw a ghost or something."
"I'm okay, really."
"Hmmm... Did you see a cute guy?!" Miyako asked with blazing curiousity.
"Hmph, uh, not really."
"Oh, come on, you're lying! Who was he?!" she asked with a very hyper impatience.
"I-I don't know."
"Huh?"
"I bumped into this guy I haven't seen before. Aw, it's proabably nothing! Let's go finish our lunches huh?" Kari suggested with her usual happy nothing's-the-matter way.
"Okay." Miyako got the message not to pry anymore. She gave in and regrettably decided to ignore the subject.
Kari couldn't wait to get home. Before leaving she waved goodbye to Miyako, then ran as fast as she could to meet with her brother and her beloved Matt. But something in the back of her mind couldn't let go of the boy she saw earlier. She kept wondering who he was and regretted not getting a name. There was something else that bothered her too. The boy seemed to have an odd air about him, like she should know him. 'It's probably because he looks so much like Matt.' she figured and tried to block the thought out of her head.
After running for a few blocks, she came into view of another figure that walked ahead of her. 'Matt!' she thought happily and began to speed up, but as she drew closer she saw their identity didn't match the one she had previously hoped for. 'That's the boy!' she realized. She began to slow down to a walking pace behind him. 'This is my chance to find out who he is! But, I wonder, should I? What if he just ignores me..?' she thought with much hesitation. Moments of intense doubt passed by, but they soon turned to an annoyed frustration at how cowardly she was acting. She clenched her fists and gathered up her courage. 'Hey! This might be my only chance! I could at least get his name,' she thought determined. With a new motivation, she sped up her pace and came to walk right beside him.
"Um, hi!" she greeted with a friendly smile. He just turned to her with an unmoving expression on his face. It made her more nervous than ever.
"Uh, do you remember me? I'm the girl that bumped into you." she reminded, trying to break the uneasy silence.
"I remember you." he replied in his usual tone of voice.
"Oh, uh, you know I didn't really catch your name before you walked off." she said, trying to act as casual as she could, but it was sure diffucult!
He blinked, probably a little surprised at her applying request, yet the expression barely lasted a moment., "I don't believe I caught yours' either." he reminded.
"Oh. Sorry. I'm Hikari Kamiya, but most people just call me Kari." she said. She then began to wait for his reply. He was a little hesitant and let quiet moments absent of his voice pass between them. Kari waited with a agonizing anxiousness for his answer. The few moments felt like a few unbearable years! She kept hoping to herself once he did she can finally leave and be free of the uncomfort she felt.
"My name is Takeru Takaishi." he said at last.
"Takeru?" she repeated making sure she got it right. An unknown force suddenly rushed into her mind and the world soon became lost around her. 'That name...it somehow feels so....familiar.'
"Are you all right?" She gasped startled, breaking away from the overwhelming feeling.
"Uh-uh, yeah. Well, I'll see you at school Takeru!" she said hasitly and continued to run on , hoping to catch up with Matt and Tai. (But, mostly to escape the strange boy's cold presence.)
'Whew, well, glad that's over with!' she thought relieved. She never realized how hot her face was until now. 'Sheesh, I was really nervous!' she chuckled amused. 'But, I wonder what was that feeling I got when he said his name. It was so weird. I wonder why I even wondered what his name was...' Her concentration began to fade towards that question and her mind couldn't help but echo his name. 'Takeru Takaishi,'
Hikari just kept running. But was suddenly stopped by something that stood right ahead of her. Kari gasped back into the real world.
"Huh?" a voice said ahead of her.
Kari blinked her eyes and came face to face with someone's back. She looked up slowly to see who it was she had crashed into.
"Matt?"
"Whoa, what's the hurry Kari?" he remarked.
"Uh-uh," she was lost for words when she unexpectantly came to look up into his mystical blue eyes. The hotness in her face quickly returned.
"Geez Kari, don't you know how to apologize?" another annoying voice replied, which she hated to recognize. She turned her head regrettably to see her spikey haired big brother there to ruin the moment as always.
"Sorry Matt," Kari said turning back to Matt.
"No problem."
They continued on their way to the Kamiya apartment. Tai and Matt always studied after school together at the Kamiya place. Kari was always so happy to have him over. Other than her usual joy though, there was a sense of wonder. She didn't know why, but when she looked up at him she couldn't help but see a strong resemblence to Takeru.
'He looks so much like him. Why am I wondering about him so much...? I'm here with Matt, why should I think about anything else!? But... I wonder if Matt has any brothers or cousins that look like him. Maybe that's why Takeru looks so much like him. '
"Matt, do you have any brothers?" she finally asked.
"Hm? No. If I do, my mom and dad never told me!" he remarked. "Why do you ask Kari?"
"Just wondering!" she said with a shy, cover-up smile.
"Why, you want to be set up Kari?!" Tai snickered with a cruel smile. Kari's face exploded into crimson.
"Y-YEAH RIGHT TAI!" Kari cried out to him totally embarassed. 'How can he say that in front of Matt like that?!' she thought horrified.
"Liar, liar, is there someone else instead?"
"SHUT-UP TAI!"
