Chapter 25
Chaos seemed suprisingly amused at the news.
"Rika has a Black card? My what a web we weeve"
"Aren't you worried, she may very well be tracking down the others now. If she get's too many she'll be unbeatable"said Raven.
"I understand your concern Raven, but we have nothing to worry about. You and I both know just one Black card can give any person a radical power beyond imagination. You see I am very matured and experienced so handiling Black cards is easy. However Rika is young with a mind not evolved enough to control the power of the Black card. The Black card has a life of it's very own Raven.
Only those with the proper strain like me can tame this power. The card will take her over, and eventualy destroy her"
"So you plan to wait until the card destroys her? Brilliant as always"said Raven.
"In the meantime we shall find the other Black cards"
"Right" *****************************************************
Kari slept peacefully in T.K's bed. His parents didn't like the idea at first, but saw what this meant to T.K.
"Honey, you think he could really be?"asked T.K's Dad.
"There's no denighing it dear, he's in love"said his mother.
T.K was sitting in a chair next to the bed, just staring.
"I thought the first Snave was bad. This Malik Snave must be a real animal to do what he did"thought T.K.
He didn't know why he didn't take her to a hospital, he guessed he just felt responsible for her. The loss of her arms meant she could never play Digimon again.
"A short career but at least she ended it undefeated"thought T.K trying to amuse himself, but this brought a sorrowful tear to his eye. It felt like Kari was dead, which she may have been if she suffered much more damage. All the times he had with Kari were flashing through his mind. If they were so great, why were they making him sad?
"Kari"said T.K barely above a whisper.
Kari didn't seem to be moving much except for her breathing. She looked so innocent and gentle sleeping, which she was. It was almost like watching a 5 year old in a peaceful sleep, it gave you that feeling of love.
He put his hand on her forehead, it didn't feel too warm.
"I'll always be there for you"
Kari continued to just sleep. *****************************************************
Rika decided to look for Kari, unaware of what happened to her. She had to tell her about the Black card she got.
She knocked on the door of the Kamiya apartment door. Tai awnsered(don't forget his parents are stll out on vacation)
"Hey Rika, here for Kari, right?"
Rika nodded.
"She's not here. She's out right now"
"Okay, thanks"
Rika was about to walk away, but Tai placed a firm grip on her shoulder.
"Rika, we need to talk, come inside"
"Huh?"
"Don't worry silly, I'm not going to hurt ya"
Rika slipped her shoes off and entered. *****************************************************
Tai brought in 2 glasses of ice water, and gave one to Rika. They were sitting at the dinning room table. Rika quickly sipped hers.
"Thanks"
"You're welcome. Now, something's been going on Rika, you guys have been out a lot lately, I want to know what's up"
"You wouldn't believe it"
"Rika"said Tai in a warning voice.
"Okay. You remember that Snave guy? Well he's after Kari, and some other kids. He says they're Digidestined. Then there's a guy named Raven who wants them too. I was taken to this place called the Dark ocean, and got this Black card"
Rika took it out.
"Let me see it"said Tai.
He reached his hand out to get it, but Rika's eyes glew Red, and Tai was blown back.
"What the heck? Did someone leave the window open?"
"Tai Kamiya"said Rika in a deep male voice(yikes!)
Tai couldn't get out any words, they caught in his throat.
"Fool, the Black card can't be taken by anyone, even just to look at. Rika is one of the few dark enough to own a Black card. She will srve us well, crushing imputent fools like Kari"
Tai got up.
"Leave my sister out of this Rika"
"Just try and stop us. Once Rika gathers the other 5 cards we will need her no longer her, and we shall dispose of her"
"Snave"
"Snave? You must be joking. No, I am Black card number 4. Rika is my owner, and she will get my other 5 brothers. Just try and stop us"
The glow leaft Rika, she collapsed and fell to the ground. She couldn't feel her body, it was like no nubeness she had ever experienced. Tai kneeled beside her.
"Rika, wake up"sia Tai shaling her.
Rika could feel the feeling come into her slowly. She opened her eyes, and slightly lifter her arm.
"OW"
"It is true, isn't it? Everything"gasped Tai barely above a whisper.
Rika barely nodded.
"Do you remember what just happened"asked Tai.
"No"awnsered Rika weakly.
Tai picked her up and layed her on the couch. He then covered her up with a blanket.
"I'm sure Kari won't mind when she get's back. Your safety means the world to her whether you know or not. That's the thing about Kari, no matter what kind of mistakes you make in the past, she's always ready to forgive you. You've been a great friend to her, and I thank you for that. Rest well"
Tai walked into his room. ***************************************************
Kari awoke slightly. Her vision was blurry at first, but it got better.
"AGH"she cried when she tried to sit up.
"Lay down"said T.K gently. Hey gently layed her down.
"T.K, my arms-
"I know Kari, you won't be able to duel ever again. Your arms are never gonna be useable again. I swear Kari, Malik Snave is going down for this" ***********************************************
Snave sat with great regret towards his dark side.
"Master, that was unecseary what you did to Kari. We just want to stop Chaos, she'll never be able to use her arms again with the damage you've done"
"No, YOU just want to stop Chaos. I want his 6 Black cards. You keep doing as I say Snave, or I'll make life a torturous snake for you"
Snave sighed and nodded. no other choice.
"I let this get out of control"he thought"and now there's nothing I can do to stop the madness I've caused. I never meant to cripple or injure, but I had no choice. As long as Malik Snave's around, all I can do is help bring upon an inevitable Armegeddon"
TBC **********************************************
Could Snave actualy be innocnet? Who's going to get the Black cards first? So many questions to awnser later on! Just read and Review please!
