Kari lay in here bed, large tears still falling from her eyes onto the soft
pillow. Tai hadn't even given her a chance to explain. Now she would never
see him again. It seemed just when things were working out, then everything
went wrong again. What was worse was she had heard her dad talking on the
phone earlier that night.
Her dad had called to complain but found out there had been a big fire and
no one was found, everyone was gone, including the ringmaster. No body's,
just empty cages. Kari was heart broken. She knew she would never see him
again, and what was worse, she knew in her heart, she had met him somewhere
before. She couldn't put her figure on it, but she knew.
Sadly she had to tell herself, it didn't matter. She rolled around in her
sleep, looking out at the lights of the city. She could feel her eyes
growing heavy and the lights blurry as she drifted off into sleep.
*THUMP*
Kari jumped awake at the sound. She rolled around in her bed, looking at
her alarm clock. 2:30am. She had only been a sleep for a few hours, what
had waken her?
"Miko.?" She called out. No cat. She looked around to see the sliding door
of the balcony swung open, the certain blowing in the wind.
"I thought I close that." She said thinking out load. "It must have blown
open.." She jumped out of bed and walked over to the door. As she did she
felt something move behind her. Kari spun around in shock, but there was
nothing there.
"Stupid Tai." She thought. "TAI! This isn't funny!" She yelled. As she did,
she heard the glass door close behind her. Kari jumped, and as she tried to
turn around, she fell over backwards. Kari felt her moth run dry, as she
saw a tall shadowed figure standing in front of the door. She felt a chill
go down he spine, she recognized the shape of this person, but couldn't put
a face on it. However somewhere inside something was clicking in telling
her to run.
Before Kari could jump up to get away, a long silver object, shoot out,
blocking her escape. She just stared at the object, in the figures hand. It
sparkled in the dime light of the city. "A sword.." She though looking at
it, and then it all hit, like I wave. She recognized the tall slender
figure, in the strange costume, she remember the swords, in her mind she
was crying out the name, screaming it hoping someone could hear. All that
came out of her was a whisper.
"Piedmon...?" It was so low she could barely hear it, but she could tell by
the reaction, he recognized his own name.
"It can't be.you we deleted.right?" She whispered. In all here mind there
was no logical reason for him to be alive, standing in her room. She
couldn't move paralyzed with fear, the sword still inches away from her.
The figure shook his head no, then whispered.
"I'm very much alive.." The voice was calm, yet sent off chills all over
her body.
Then without warning he stepped out of the shadows, and reached down for her. Kari squealed and covered herself over protectively. She waited to feel his cold hands, ripping her apart. Waited.waited...waited..nothing. Kari carefully opened her eyes. The large gloved hand was still next to her, wide open. As she released just a little and looked closer, something sparkled, in his palm. She leaned in and almost fell over recognizing the object she had lost that night.
"My..necklace..but.." She said thinking. "You?!" Piedmons face lit up for a minute. "You started that fire, you killed him!!!" Kari jumped up accusing. Piedmons smile fade, he reached in, to put the necklace around her neck, but she moved away. Piedmon smiled and put the sword back in its slot.
"Don't be afraid my child.I did start the fire, but your clown is safe I promise you that." He said picking her up, before she could run away.
"He is? What did you do to him? Where is he!" Kari said both angry and hopeful. Piedmons smile grew.
"You really want to see him? What if he's not what you expected." Piedmon said smugly.
"I want to see him, no matter what." Kari said softly. Piedmon lend in close to her, Kari felt goose bumps, feeling his breath on her neck.
"I'm right here Kari..." Was all she heard him whisper into her ear. He then laid the shocked girl down in her bed, and covered her over sitting next to her. "Its always been me, its heard to explain everything now, and its a lot for us both to understand, but I needed to show you the real me. Don't be afraid.."
"It's not true your lying!" Kari whispered. Piedmon just smiled.
"Its true little one, I saved you when you fell of the latter, you visited me every day, and I got confused and angry why you were being so nice to me, so I reacted badly and tore up the beautiful picture you gave me. However when I saw the errors of my ways I tried to tell you, I couldn't talk..Kari believe me. I am who I say.."
"But how?" She asked still very much afraid.
"The gate of destiny, as punishment for what I did, I was changed, and sent to leave in that horrible place for ever, but you helped save me.." Piedmon leaned in closer. "I know its a lot to take in, but Kari....I need you..." He couldn't say the words not yet.
"What's going to happen now?" Kari asked, as she finally began o relax, and give into the truth she had known all along. "What are you going do to me?"
"Do? Nothing my child. Tonight am will leave you, and my being her well seem just like a dream. Its time I retook me world, and I have much to do. However I wish to stay with you for just a little while...it will be a long time till we see each other again.." He whispered now she had realized his one arm was wrapped around her tightly. His lips gently brushed her forehead.
Kari could feel herself turning red. He was so warm, and strong. She actually felt safe as he held her. She couldn't believe that one of the most frightening and evil digimon ever, was in her room, telling her such things.
"You should sleep now.." Piedmon said pulling away. "And I must leave you, but before I do, I want to show you something. I want you to trust me, and so I will show you something know one has ever seen before. Piedmon reached up to his face, and gently removed the black and white mask. He ran his other hand through his heir, as it fell down, in long curls, around his handsome face. Kari was in total shock. As he sat the quietly in the dime lights waiting for her to react, Kari realize, he was the most beautiful, digimon or even human she had ever seen. She had no idea that he looked like that. He had always had suck a sick and evil look to him, and strange, but now she could see the real him.
"My dear child of light, are you blushing?" Piedmon said smiling that sneaky smile, she had come to recognize on his face. Kari couldn't talk. "Good.." Was all she head Piedmon whisper before he leaned in and kissed her, deeply.
Kari instantly felt her eyes growing heavy, and she collapsed into his arms. He moved away and smiled at the small girl. "It will seem like a dream.." He whispered. "You will forget me in time, but I will return, as soon as I can. This time you won't be afraid, for when I return, you will remember, all of this, and know how I feel.you'll be old enough to understand then." He said laying her down gently, and covering her over.
He watched her for a little, before he put his mask back on, and flew out into the night. Kari rolled over in her sleep, a large smile on her red cheeks.
