Lies Tear the World Apart

That's right, I've finally succumbed to writing in chapters. This is Takari and may have Taiora, Mimato, Kouyako, or possibly Jyoun in future chapters. That's your warning. No flaming. Davis is somewhat out of character, I mean I know he wouldn't be this insane.

* Chapter 7: The End * Kari awoke to someone tapping her lightly on the shoulder. She glanced at the clock, which read 11:06 PM. 
"Sorry I was gone so long, hun." Mrs. Watanabe said as Kari stretched and slipped her feet into her shoes.

"Oh, that's ok. They were angels." She smiled warmly. Mrs. Watanabe reached into her wallet and pulled out a twenty-dollar bill.

"Thanks again, Hikari. You're such a great girl." Kari nodded thanks and walked towards the door. When she opened it she was greeted with one scared looking boy and one angry looking boy. Closing the door behind her, she cleared her throat.

"What are you two doing here?" She said, clearly upset.

"Kari!" TK cried. "I didn't do it!" Kari rolled her eyes.

"He really didn't, Kari." Ken said from next to him.

"What?" Kari asked when a snowflake touched her nose. She bent over the banister of the apartment complex and looked up, sure enough it was snowing. "Let's go into my apartment." She said, gesturing towards the door that said "Kamiya" on a gold plate. When all were inside and sitting at the table Ken began.

"First I will tell you something about myself and then I will tell you why TK didn't do anything." He started. "A year ago when I was on summer vacation I started doing drugs because I was unhappy with myself. I know that it was a stupid way to handle the situation but that's what I did. I was an addict, and my parents had to send me to a rehabilitation center." Kari's mouth dropped from across from him. "Now, Davis approached me the other day very upset because he'd heard that you two were starting to go out. I tried to comfort him but he refused it, saying that he wouldn't give you up and he wouldn't let you be together. Now he'd somehow found out about my drug problem and used it against me, forcing me to help his plan work. He taped TK in the locker room, but he made me construe the tape so that it would seem like TK was saying bad things about you when he was really defending you." Ken stated.

"So it was all just some elaborate scheme to keep TK and I apart?" Kari asked incredulously. Ken nodded and they all sat in silence for a moment.

"Do you have the real tape?" Kari asked. Ken nodded and handed it to her.

"You guys stay here, I'm going to go listen to it." Kari got up from the table and was gone for several minutes before emerging from her room with tears flowing down her cheeks.

"Oh, TK. I'm sorry I doubted you!" She ran and embraced him. He returned the hug, loving the feeling of having her in his arms again.

"I'd never hurt you." He said. "I really do love you." He whispered. Kari nodded in joy and leaned up to kiss him.

"Davis can I talk to you?" Kari asked at lunch the next day. He nodded with a smirk and followed her to a table, sitting on top of it.

"I just wanted to thank you for telling me all about TK, he's such a rat! You must really like me." Kari said, batting her eyelashes.

"Well, of course." Davis replied, pleased with himself. Kari started to lean in to kiss him and Davis leaned in too but before their lips touched Kari smacked him, catching him totally of guard. She pushed him off the table. A stunned Davis lay in the grass with his hand on his cheek.

"I know it was a lie. I know everything, Ken told us. I never thought you'd stoop so low, Davis! I know all about Ken too, so don't try that. That poor boy, you blackmailed him and he put his name on the line so that TK and I could be together."

"Kari you can't be with TK! I won't let you! You belong with me!" He reached out to grab her arm but another hand caught him.

"YOU stay away from Kari, Davis." TK said firmly, with his hand clenched around Davis' arm. He let it go and walked away with Kari's hand in his.

The end! Sorry it took so long!
