Chapter One
The Child of Light
"And don't forget people, there's a test next time so don't forget to study, dismissed."
Kari had been hard at work all class and hadn't realized the time she rushed to pack her things so she wouldn't miss the bus. She ran down the steps and out the door only to see the bus pull away.
"Man, T.K.'s gonna be so mad at me!"
"What am I gonna be so mad at you for?"
"T.K., I thought you were on the bus."
"What are you talking about, it's Thursday, we have the truck today."
"Oh man, I've been so bogged down lately I've started forgetting what day it is"
"Kari, I have an idea, I think you need a weekend off to unwind, so how about this weekend after all your tests are over we go to. I don't someplace that's not here."
This is one of the reasons that made Kari love him. He always seemed to know what to say and what to do to make a person feel like they mattered. He always said that he kept it all to use for her but he knew that if he ever saw anyone in need of a feeling that they were cared about.
"Sure, but you know I have to say you seem to have this awfully planned out
All of the sudden he had that sheepish grin that meant that he had been scheming something for weeks. She loved that smile.
"So maybe I did think a little in advance, but can you blame me, you've been a mess for months."
"I love you so much", she said kissing him hard on the mouth.
"I love you too", he tried to say around her kiss.
All she thought about the next day was their weekend away. That night he took her out for Italian food and then they drove home.
"T.K. I though you said we were going away for the weekend?" she asked creasing her brow.
"Well I decided it would be more fun if we stayed home and everyone else went away for the weekend, because personally I think they could all use a break too."
(which was absolutely right)
That night they expressed their love for each other very thoroughly. The next morning they awoke to a sunshiny one o'clock in the afternoon. They took a long hot shower and had breakfast an hour later. They went to the movies with full bellies and saw one of the dullest movies ever made and, to the opportunity that they were the only ones in the theater, made out the whole time. They left the movies asking each other if the other knew what the movie had been about. After dinner at McDonalds they repeated the process over again. T.K. brought her breakfast in bed the next morning and they just laid their for hours in each other's sweet embrace. When they got up there was a message coming in from Jennai.
"Yay, Gatomon", she said, it had been three months since they had heard from their digimon. They settled in for the transmission knowing that it would probably be a long one since this was the only time they got to see their friends.
"Well, good afternoon. I've been trying to get a hold of you for days", Jennai said.
"It's good to see you Jennai, why haven't you been calling us", Kari asked sipping on some freshly brewed coffee.
"Sorry, I've been researching an old prophecy I found in my basement."
"Where are all the digimon?", Kari asked.
"I sent them in search of something for me", he replied.
"All of them?", T.K. asked.
"Well, I didn't need all of them to go but I think they were itchin for some action", he said smiling widely.
T.K. and Kari chuckled.
"So what's up, Jennai?", they asked.
"Well it's about this prophecy I found, it mentions several times a 'Child of the Light', and it made me think of Kari. And I was wondering if you , Kari, were doing anything that might contribute to this reference."
The both of them blushed so bad they looked like a pair of maraschino cherries.
"Uh-huh, I think I'll leave the silence to its own. Just know that I wish you would be careful about it. Oh and please tell me if any, mhmph, extra variables arise."
"Sure.", they said sweating fiercely under the blanket they were sharing.
"Thank you, and if it comforts you, my lips are sealed.", he said with one of those old man grins that gives you undoubted comfort.
"Thanks Jennai, will be more careful until you figure out what this means", T.K. said.
"Okay I'll keep in touch, bye", he said and then the screen cut to blue.
They sat their for about an hour contemplating what Jennai had said.
"So much for a relaxed weekend", Kari said, as she took on a sullen look.
She went into a slump for the rest of the day knowing that if they had a child and it was responsible for something horrible. She knew she wouldn't be able to live with that. Around five o'clock she was sitting in the living room staring into nothing. T.K. was going insane so he went over and knelt in front of her. "Kari, I know that your scared that we could be responsible for something extremely bad and your right but isn't that true in any situation. And while we may be the cause of who knows what but it could be something really good. We should wait until Jennai finishes his research to be rash about this. But I won't force anything on you I swear. Just know that I love you now and forever."
"I know T.K. but it terrifies me", she said beginning to cry.
"We'll get through this together, okay?", he said taking hold of her hands.
The next few months went by rather slow for the most part, they kept Jennai's prophecy from everyone else. Sora was pregnant again, Matt and Mimi had finally set a date for their wedding. When the others started noticing the change in their behavior they began to ask questions that were never answered. and a few months later they finally called everyone over to talk about it.
"So, what's the big emergency", Matt said, seeming to not really care because no one had told him anything about it.
"Well," Yolie began, thinking of how to put it into words, "for the past few months T.K. and Kari have been really distant, and not only from us, they seem to be avoiding each other a lot. It started the week after we went on the weekend trip to give them some time alone. Neither of them were talking are much, and Kari is constantly gazing at nothing."
"Have you asked them about it?", Tai asked yawning.
"Of course we have, but they disregard it like we weren't even there", Cody said.
"Well obviously we can't help if we don't know what's wrong, so you need to figure it out and confront them about it" Sora said, she was genuinely worried but most of them put it off as the hormones talking.
"We knew that", said Davis pompously, he was still upset that she had picked T.L. or whatever his name was over him.
"Oh, shut up Davis, like you could appreciate the emotion involved in this, with that rock for a brain", Yolie snapped at him, slapping him in the face.
"Hey, what the hell did you hit me for", he said rubbing his face.
"Your, such a dumb ass sometimes, you know", Matt said focusing now.
A few minutes of yelling was followed by Kari walking in the door. She didn't even notice the room full of her closest friends and family. Like for the past months the only thing on her mind was T.K., she was thinking back to her brother's wedding. At the reception they had been dancing for a while when he asked her if some day she would marry him.
* * * "Of course, silly. Then we'll be together for the rest of our lives.", she said looking deeply into him to find out why he was asking a question for which he already knew the answer.
That night was the first night they made love.
* * *
She snapped back into reality just to see a wall before she was on the ground. She went to tears, when they asked her what was wrong she said nothing but ran to her room. They stood out of her room for hours trying to convince her to come out, but to no avail she only told them to go away. A short while later T.K. came in the front door, when he got to the landing outside his room Tai nearly tackled him back down the stairs.
"What the hell did you do to my sister you bastard!", he yelled.
Just as his face was about to make contact with T.K.'s face Ken and Cody took him down.
"Calm down, Tai.", Ken said, forcedly trying to keep him from lunging at T.K.
T.K. was opening his mouth to explain when Kari opened the door, eyes red and puffy from crying. They all went downstairs and sat in the kitchen although they were all nervous that if anything upsetting was said Tai shouldn't be near so many knives.
"When you went away for the weekend me and Kari got a message from Jennai. He said he'd been researching a prophecy with the name 'The Child of Light' and he said that we should be careful of certain things. And we've just been really nervous about it ever since", T.K. explained.
Kari who had been trying to seem small and insignificant suddenly felt like the universe was staring right at her saying 'what have you been doing'. She snapped, and it seemed like there was a river coming out of her tear ducts .
"Kari, what is it? what's got you so scared?", T.K. said putting his arm around her.
Tai tensed like a cat about to pounce. Sora gave him a glare that made him feel like a mouse. Through her sobs, they could barely make out the words everyone had been dreading.
"I'm pregnant."
Davis passed out. Mimi was jumping with joy, not yet realizing the weight of the situation. Matt and Soras' jaws dropped. Tai screamed himself hoarse. Joe seemed to become comatose in place, Izzy too. T.K. didn't react the way Kari thought he would. He was very calm, he stood up he leaned over and whispered something in her ear. Kari looked up at him, beaming. She jumped into his arms. Yolie and Ken cried softly with joy.
* * *
What T.K. had said was, 'no matter what, I will always be there for you. Know that I love you. Please marry me.
* * *
A month later and she was Mrs. Kari Takaishi. They received a letter from Jennai that he had deciphered most of the prophecy, but he wanted the whole group to be there when he told them.
"You'll need all the support you can muster.", he said warily.
Davis was still in a severe state of shock and was in his room a lot. They couldn't get him to come out when Jennai was back and waiting for them all to gather around.
"Davis, we're a team, and as part of that team it's your responsibility to be supportive, not just as a teammate but as a friend. So get your butt out here.", Tai was screaming.
Silence was all they heard for about two minutes. Then they hear a loud thunk and Davis cursed loudly. Patience giving out, Matt and Tai rammed the door down, only to find him lying on the floor with his head in his hands and a sheet around his neck that was connected to the fan sitting next to him.
"Davis, what the hell are you doing.", Tai said unwrapping the sheet from his neck.
"Get the hell away from me Tai, you don't understand and you never will. You got who you wanted." he said slapping his hand away.
"Man get over it, there'll be someone else." Matt said picking him up off the ground.
"There will never be another Kari, and I don't get to be with her.", he screamed.
"You're right Davis, there will never be another Kari for you. But that's not to say there won't be someone for you who isn't with someone else.", Tai said.
"I won't believe there's anyone out there for me but Kari.", he said through clenched teeth.
"Then you will be alone for the rest of your life.", Matt said to him.
They dragged him downstairs and sat him in a chair next to Joe.
"Well, now that your all here. I have deciphered the rest of the prophecy of the child of the light.
In the new age, a child will be born of the light, It will be responsible for the revolution. It will require the help of the elements to survive the night. Once it joins them together, their destinies will be set in motion. They will gather great forces to withhold against the ritten, But first they need find the calm. Resting in a place unforeseen, The calm will be found indicated in psalms. There was silence among the dig destined for a long while, as they all tried to figure out what it meant. When they noticed Jennai had fallen asleep they gave it up and asked him what he thought.
"Well, I don't know heads or tails of it, but we need to be cautious. I've some bad news to tell you all. When the digimon returned from their outing they spoke of tribes of humans who were frightened of them. They were able to retrieve what I sent them for but we discovered that when the worlds were once again sealed the flow of time was returned to when the first of you came."
They gasped as a group.
"What about all those people that were there when it happened?", Sora asked going to tears. "Well, that's the really bad part. They were forced to adapt, and through generations after generations they forgot about your world all together. Now they are slaves to a nameless evil digimon."
Mimi broke down on Matt's shoulder.
"We have to do something for them Jennai.", Tai said as he slammed his fist down on the table.
"Yes, Tai, I know but we can't. At least not until we can get something on this prophecy. We can't risk a revolution he the digital world isn't ready for it.", Jennai stated firmly.
Kari's eyes were glazed over.
"Jennai, is our child in trouble?", she said, she looked as if she was on the brink of breaking down completely.
"I'm not sure, but for now we must assume that whatever happens, this child is key for the future of the digital world."
T.K. put his arm over her shoulder and whispered something in her ear. She put on a brave smile that said she was devastated but wanted to be supportive.
"Hold on one second," he said as he looked to his left, "is someone there."
He walked away from the screen. They heard a sound like wrestling.
"What are you doing, no get away from that", he said as something knocked the monitor over.
"Jennai, no!", Gatomon said running in front of the downed screen.
A second later she was thrown away from the screen.
"Gatomon!", Kari said grabbing her monitor.
The screen went dead. That pushed her over the edge.
"What have we done T.K., look what we've done. We have to find a way to go back.", she said falling into his arms.
"We will Kari, we will.", he said holding her head in his hands.
"Izzy, can you bring up a digi-port?", Tai said.
"I can try", he said rebooting the computer. When it was back up, he went to work. It took him about and hour to find it.
"Man, the thing looks pretty old", Tai said. The gate was old an weathered.
"That's because the gate is part of the digital world, and it ages with it. No one has been here in a long time, so it has been left to sort of digitally rust over.", Izzy said.
"Well, lets give it a try", Tai said pulling his goggles from his neck to its trademark position on his forehead.
"Digi-port open!", he said holding his digivice up to the computer.
There was a weak beep and as it tried to light up, it broke down.
"What the hell.", Davis said.
As he raised a hand to hit it, Izzy tackled him to the ground.
"Davis, what's wrong with you, if you break the computer and I can't fix it, we lose our only portal to the digital world.", he said pulling Davis off of his ass. "Sorry, but you didn't have to knock me down.", he said dusting himself off.
Izzy started plucking away at the keyboard again. While the others sat in extreme boredom, TK and Kari went to the kitchen to talk. Kari was still worried about the baby, but was a little more calm about it. TK wrapped his arms around her, holding her tightly to his chest.
"Don't worry Kari, no matter what happens, know that I won't leave you alone, ever.", he said kissing her forehead.
She looked up and he saw tears in her eyes. He asked her what was wrong, and she sobbed through her tears, "I'm just scared that all this is going to get someone hurt or worse. I don't think I could live with one of my best friends death on my head."
"Kari, no one's going to die.", he said rubbing her back.
"But what if someone does, I-"
"I guarantee no one will be hurt.", he said in that voice that always made her believe that whatever he said was true, without a doubt.
An hour later Izzy had brought up the program for the gate.
"So, what's wrong with it Izzy?", Sora asked with concern on her face.
"Oh no, its programming has been destroyed by a virus.", he said with a very blank stare.
"What does that mean exactly?", Davis asked with a very confused frown.
"It means we're screwed", Matt said. Mimi took his hand on the verge of tears.
"We've lost our contact with the digital world. We can't go back", Izzy said with disdain in his voice.
After that they all just sat there in contemplation of how to help all of their friends in the digital world.
This is currently PG13 for language but should change in the near future, and the mushy stuff is just the main setting.
The Child of Light
"And don't forget people, there's a test next time so don't forget to study, dismissed."
Kari had been hard at work all class and hadn't realized the time she rushed to pack her things so she wouldn't miss the bus. She ran down the steps and out the door only to see the bus pull away.
"Man, T.K.'s gonna be so mad at me!"
"What am I gonna be so mad at you for?"

"What are you talking about, it's Thursday, we have the truck today."
"Oh man, I've been so bogged down lately I've started forgetting what day it is"
"Kari, I have an idea, I think you need a weekend off to unwind, so how about this weekend after all your tests are over we go to. I don't someplace that's not here."

Izzy started plucking away at the keyboard again. While the others sat in extreme boredom, TK and Kari went to the kitchen to talk. Kari was still worried about the baby, but was a little more calm about it. TK wrapped his arms around her, holding her tightly to his chest.
"Don't worry Kari, no matter what happens, know that I won't leave you alone, ever.", he said kissing her forehead.
She looked up and he saw tears in her eyes. He asked her what was wrong, and she sobbed through her tears, "I'm just scared that all this is going to get someone hurt or worse. I don't think I could live with one of my best friends death on my head."
"Kari, no one's going to die.", he said rubbing her back.
"But what if someone does, I-"
"I guarantee no one will be hurt.", he said in that voice that always made her believe that whatever he said was true, without a doubt.
An hour later Izzy had brought up the program for the gate.
"So, what's wrong with it Izzy?", Sora asked with concern on her face.
"Oh no, its programming has been destroyed by a virus.", he said with a very blank stare.
"What does that mean exactly?", Davis asked with a very confused frown.
"It means we're screwed", Matt said. Mimi took his hand on the verge of tears.
"We've lost our contact with the digital world. We can't go back", Izzy said with disdain in his voice.
After that they all just sat there in contemplation of how to help all of their friends in the digital world.
This is currently PG13 for language but should change in the near future, and the mushy stuff is just the main setting.
