*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Did you see that?!" Mimi shrieked.
Kari
nodded. "I know I did!"
The rest of the DD's nodded too. Kari and Mimi were the most frightened.
"It looks just like the thing I saw earlier!" Mimi said shakily.
"What?! You mean you saw it earlier too?" Kari asked, shocked.
Mimi nodded. "Wait, you did too?"
"Yes! But Tk said I was just seeing things," Kari said.
"Well, you weren't. I was looking out my window when I saw a pair of bright red eyes pass through in the darkness of the night. I blinked and they were gone! Now I know I didn't imagine it. Come on, Let's go outside and see if it's out there," Mimi said, rushing towards the door.
But Tai stopped her.
"Mimi! You can't just go out there in this storm!" Tai exclaimed.
"I can and I will! Kari, you coming?" Mimi asked.
Kari nodded and followed Mimi out the apartment door.
"Well, If Kari's going, so I am," Tk said, following them.
Matt groaned. "Man, I'm going to get wet. Wait up Tk! I'm coming too!" Matt said, running after the others.
Tai sighed. "If Matt is going, I'll go." He ran down and followed. Everyone else just stood there.
"Hey! Wait for me!" Ken said, going after Tai.
Everyone else turned and looked at Yolei.
"Ha! Don't look at me, I ain't going down there! Shoot, they can be the stupid ones that get wet, I'M staying dry," she said, sitting down on the couch and crossing her legs.
Davis nodded. "I 2nd that motion," he said, sitting down next to Yolei.
Sora rolled her eyes. "Well, I'm going down there. I mean, why miss out on all the action?" She turned and walked out the door, going after the others.
Yolei shook her head. "Foolish people. They'll never learn."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
*Outside*
Kari and Mimi were the first ones out. The wind was blowing furiously, as tree limbs and garbage cans rolled and whipped down the street. It was a disaster area! Telephone poles were lying across the wet dreary streets. Trees had fallen and smashed into cars and other trees. To make it worse, the debris from the storm had started clogging up the sewage drains. Since the water couldn't go down, it had started to rise. There were no lights on what so ever. It was pitch black except for the few oil lanterns that still stood.
"Oh my, this is terrible!" Mimi shrieked. She was getting tired of hearing the car alarms that were going off in the distance.
Suddenly, it seemed like the wind picked up more speed. Lucky for Mimi, she was holding on to the lamp post, but Kari wasn't. A powerful blow knocked Kari back. Luckily, two strong arms grabbed hold of her.
"Are you okay, Kari?" Tk asked, holding her.
Kari nodded. "Thanks for catching me."
"You're welcome," he said, looking down at her.
The others joined them at that moment.
"Wow! It looks like a disaster zone out here!" Matt exclaimed.
Tai nodded. "Yeah man, look!" he said pointing to a car that's windows had been busted out.
"Good thing that isn't my car, heh heh," Matt said.
Tai rolled his eyes. "If you forgot to put your car in the garage, then it could be!" he said laughing.
Matt stood there, eyes wide. "Oh shit!"
Tai laughed even harder. "You did!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Matt turned and looked at Tai and gave him the death glare. "That's it Kamiya, You're gonna wish you were dead when I'm through with you!"
"Uh-oh!" Tai exclaimed, running back to the apartment.
Matt chased after him, almost running dead into Ken.
Ken jumped out of the way as Matt ran past him.
"Man, that was close!" Ken exclaimed.
"Yeah, you're telling me!" Yolei said, coming up behind him.
"Yolei! I thought you weren't coming down?" Ken asked.
"I changed my mind. Anyway, where's Mimi?" Yolei asked, looking around. She saw Tk and Kari holding onto the stair railings, pointing at something in the distance, but she didn't see Mimi anywhere.
"I don't know. I just came out here," Ken said, shrugging.
"TK! KARI!" Yolei yelled over the roar of the wind.
They turned around. "What is it Yolei?" Kari asked.
"Where's Mimi?" Yolei yelled.
"She's……" Kari looked around. 'Wait a minute! Mimi was right there next to the lamp post a minute ago….wasn't she? Yes! Yes, she was. She wouldn't have gone somewhere. Not in this weather. Oh no, what if something has happened to her?' thought Kari.
"KARI! EARTH TO KARI! IS ANYONE THERE?!" Tk yelled waving his hand in her face.
Kari snapped out of her thoughts. "Sorry, I was just thinking."
"It looked like you were a million miles away! What were you thinking about?" he asked.
"Mimi. She was here, right over there!" said Kari, pointing at the lamp post. "But now, she's gone! It's like she disappeared!"
"MIMI!!! MIMI!!! WHERE ARE YOU!?!" Yolei yelled out into the darkness.
Soon all four of them were calling out for Mimi, but no one would reply.
Suddenly, they were engulfed in total darkness. The lamp lights that had been on, were now off.
Kari shrieked. She couldn't see a thing. Not even the hand in front of her face.
"Tk? Are you there?" she said, feeling out in the darkness.
A hand grasped her arm.
"AAAHHH!!!" Kari screamed.
"Kari, it's just me," came the familiar voice.
"Oh, Tk, it's you," she said, calming down.
"Kari? Tk? Where are you guys?" they heard Yolei's voice say.
"Over here! Follow the sound of my voice," Kari said in the direction of where the voice came from.
Yolei and Ken made their way through the darkness towards Kari's voice.
"Okay, we're here," Yolei said once she had gotten to Tk and Kari.
"Well, Well, Well, it seems like someone has turned out the light," a mysterious voice said, emphasizing the word 'light'.
The four DD's gasped. "Whose there?!" Tk yelled out into the darkness.
"All in good time, Hope, all in good time," it said, laughing maniacally.
When no one said anything, the voice continued to speak.
"Cat got your tongues? I thought so. You brats and your digimon, gah! It disgusts me. But don't worry, soon enough, there will be no such things as Digimon, or Digidestineds for that matter! MUWHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Tk was beginning to get angry. He clenched his fists in anger. Kari could tell when he was getting angry, and she knew that this was one of those times.
"Tk, don't let this person or whatever, get you riled up. That's what it's trying to do. Don't let it," she whispered in his ear. Tk nodded, and tried to calm down.
The thing laughed. "Tsk tsk tsk. I can't believe your listening to that pathetic little brat of Light. She's just trying to spoil my fun. It's a good thing she won't be around for much longer," the thing said, laughing.
Tk had had enough. "That's it! I won't allow you to talk about Kari like that! Are you that scared of us that you have to cloak yourself in darkness? Huh? I bet you are the one that made it this dark. Didn't you? You ARE scared! Admit it!" Tk yelled.
The thing growled. "If it's Light you want, Light you shall GET!"
"Flame of Hell!"
A massive flame erupted from the mysterious monster, and headed straight towards Tk.
"TTTKKKKK!!!!" Kari screamed.
TBC!
