**Oye, LOL, anyway, here's chapter 9. The most you'll see know is a
'damnit' here and there. Sorry kids, anyone below 13 should leave, this is
marked PG-13 after all. Also, sorry sorry for swearing peoples.**
Chapter 9: The Past and The Present
Two fingers slowly traced her jaw as she hung up in the air by the dark vines, "Now, now my little pet, didn't you miss me?" the form behind her asked with a sneer. "As much as a horse loves the flies that bug it all day," Kari responded with a light chuckle. A few seconds after, she felt a sharp stinging in her cheek, along with a growl from the figure, "You'd best keep your mouth shut, unless you want your friends to die." "You rotten piece of scum.Oww!" another sharp stinging joined the other as she was slapped in the face again. "Don't you know it's not nice to slap a lady?" Ken laughed from the ground as a blue aura surrounded his body; his hair looking as if being lifted by a upward draft; his eyes were glowing faintly; as he slowly rose up from the ground and near the figure. "Don't you ever learn, Travis?" The digidestined were left on the ground, staring up in shock and awe. Izzy looked more fascinated then anything, "Whoa. now THAT is prodigious." Ken grinned as he put something in Kari's hand, then smirked at Travis. "Bye, have a nice trip, see you next fall." Travis laughed as he sent another vine up, which grabbed Ken by the throat. Travis grinned slyly, "vines of darkness I order you plummet him into the ground, then shock him until all his life his gone." Kari's eyes widened "no. No!" she screamed as he was being dragged down to the ground. Ken closed his eyes, bracing for the pain, but the pain never came. "Wha.?" Ken looked around wide-eyed. "Vines of Darkness! Release my brother and my sister!" T.K. looked were Kaira was standing, and saw her surrounded in a black aura. "Travis! You will not use my own techniques against me!" Then she looked to T.K., "Get ready to catch Kari.but stay away from Travis." T.K. nodded his approval, and got ready to run. "Vines! I said Release!" At that, the vines quickly released them and retreated back into the ground. Ken only fell from a few feet, so he got up without a problem. T.K. slid across the ground, like a baseball player trying to get to a base, as he caught Kari. "Hehehe.peek-a-boo T.K., look above you." T.K. looked up only to be face to face with Travis, but before he could react, Kari put a finger on Travis's forehead, "Lightning Teleport!" At that, Travis just completely disappeared. Completely out of shock, T.K. passed out right then and there.

"C'mon T.K.! we're gonna be late!"
A 2 year old T.K. looked up at his older brother, Matt. "But Matt, why do I have to go? They won't like me!"
"Yes they will T.K., trust me." T.K. sighs as he's walked out the door and down the hall. Matt looked down at his brother with a groan, "Besides, mom says we have to, it's one of her old friends from school or something like that." Their mom spoke up with a laugh, "In fact, I was best friends with her in school, she has two children now. Matt, you may like her son, he likes soccer and a bunch of other sports. T.K., her little girl is your age, but don't get too rough with her, okay?" T.K. nodded with a smile, "Okay mommy." They stopped in front of a door not far from their own apartment, and Mrs.Ishida rang the door bell. T.K. pulled on his mom's shirt, "Mommy, is Kamiya their last name?" Matt answered instead, "Yep shrimp, people put their last names by or on their door so everyone knows who they are." T.K. blinked a few times, "Oh." A little boys voice rang out from inside the apartment, "Coming!" The door opened, but from Mrs.Ishida's view, it looked like it opened by itself. Then she felt a tug at the bottom of her shirt. As she looked down, the first thing she saw was a large amount of brown hair. "Umm, are you my moms friend?" Lifting up his head, Mrs.Ishida saw it was a little boy. The little boy looked at Matt, "Hi, I guess you're Matt, my name's Tai." Then he looked downward and smiles at T.K., "And you must be T.K." Mrs.Ishida laughed lightly, "I guess your mom already told you all about us." A woman with her hair tied back into a ponytail stepped into the doorway, "I see you've already met Tai." T.K. blinked, "Mommy, is that Mrs.Kamiya?" Mrs.Ishida smiled, "Yes T.K., it is." Mrs.Ishida smiled once again, "Now, where is that little angel of yours?" Tai grinned lightly, "There are no angels in the house, but Kari's here." Mrs.Kamiya looked down at her son, "Tai, be nice." T.K. smiled up at Mrs.Kamiya, "Where is.umm.Kari?" She smiled down at him, "In the living room laying down on the couch. Why?" T.K. smiled widely as he ran inside the apartment, almost knocking Tai over. Tai looked up at his mom, "Shouldn't you have mentioned that Kari's a little sick?" Mrs.Ishida looked at Mrs.Kamiya with concern, "She's sick?" Mrs.Kamiya nodded, "She gets sick a lot." then she whispered in her friends ear, "Tai, played soccer with her about a week ago and we had to bring her to the hospital. we don't know what's wrong." Matt and Tai ran in with the two mothers following along. Matt looked over to the couch where his brother was sitting; he had to rub his eyes a few times, because he swore he saw a pale-faced doll by his brother on the couch, but it was really a little girl. Mrs.Kamiya went over to the couch and picked the little girl up, "Hello sweetie, are you feeling better yet?" The little girl looked down at T.K., then nodded a little, "Yes mommy, I feel a little better." her voice sounded small and weak when she spoke. T.K. smiled up at him mom, "Mommy, I really like my new friend, can he come here everyday?" Mrs.Ishida laughed, "Only if you ask Mrs.Kamiya very nicely." T.K. turned to Mrs.Kamiya, but before he could say anything, little Kari looked to her mom, "Mommy. I don't feel so good again." Mrs.Kamiya looked worriedly at her daughter, "I think. we're going to go to the hospital again." T.K. looked at Mrs.Kamiya with a sad face, "Can I come with you?" Matt looked over at his brother, "Huh?" T.K. ignored him and looked at Mrs.Kamiya again, "Can I please come with you?" Mrs.Kamiya looked at her best friend, then gave a quick nod, "Yes. T.K., you can come with us." T.K. smiled as they left with Kari to bring her to the hospital.
~End Flashback~
T.K. woke back up in a pure white room in what felt like a hospital bed, and wearing an air mask. Hmm. must've just been a dream. He thought as he closed his eyes again. "If you think I was a dream, you must be crazy." He opened his eyes back up quickly, only to meet with a familiar pair of reddish-brown eyes. Standing up straight again, Kari smiled down at him, "I see you're feeling better. I'm not surprised you passed out, I don't blame you." "Wait. a minute. how did you know what I was thinking?" T.K. said, dumbfounded, at his friend. Kari giggled with a smile, "Don't worry about it."
**Oye, finally done with chapter 9. my fingers hurt. ;____; Anyway, R&R. FINE! FLAME ME ALL YOU WANT!! =P Nyah! Nyah! Neener, neener, neener!**
