Chapter 8:
After getting some pancakes before the Digimon ate them all, they went to the park to meet up with the others. They got there in record time so that Yolie didn't have a reason to yell at them again. They found Hikari and Davis watching their partners play hide-and –seek when they got there. Hikari was the first to notice them as Gatomon jumped into a tree making DemiVeemon confused. "Good morning you guys!" she exclaimed as she grabbed her bag and ran over. "Happy Birthday, TK!" she said as she pecked him on the cheek, causing the blond to blush. Hikari was also blushing when she realized what she had done. She covered it up by reaching into her bag and taking out a beautifully wrapped, small package. "This is from Tai, Agumon, Gatomon, and me to you. The catch, though, is you can't open it until you get home."
"As much as I don't appreciate the 'catch', thank you. I'll open it ASAP when I get home," Takeru said as he kissed his fingertips and placing them on Hikari's check.
During the whole thing, Ken had been smiling off to the side while his DNA partner was green with envy. To make matters worse, Yolie showed up and yelled, "Oh, how cute!" the keepers of Hope and Light instantly backed up at the sudden break of silence. They were both blushing madly. Ken wasn't all too pleased but was thankful that Davis had stopped his advance toward the couple. 'That would not have been a pretty sight,' he thought.
Yolie just smiled as she walked over toward Davis saying, "Oh, don't mind me. I'm just passing by," as she grabbed Davis by his ear and pulled him toward the grass where five of the Digimon were playing now.
"Oh my…What were we thinking, Takeru!?" Hope asked.
'If you don't know, I don't know either. Remember?'
"Oh ya. But did Yolie have to go and do that?"
'Yes she did because she is Yolie. Hay. Wait. How do you know Yolie?'
"I've been with you and seen, felt, and heard all that you have sense you first went to the Digital World. There for, I know all your friends and family and how you feel about them. For example, I know you've loved Kari sense fifth grade."
'Alright. I'm not used to you in my head just yet, but now you're starting to scare me.'
"That's my job."
Takeru just physically rolled his eyes as he followed his friends to a blanket set up by Cody and Upamon. Once there, Cody gave Takeru a Happy Birthday and a present. Yolie did too as she pulled a yelping Davis down to sit. "Thanks Cody, and, um, Yolie thanks but, you're about to pull his ear off."
"Huh? Oh! Oops. Sorry Davis. Any way, open mine TK. I hope you like it."
"You can open mine too, TK," Cody added.
"Alright," he said as he ripped the paper off of Yolie's present to reveal a game for his PS2. "Thanks, Yolie! I've been saving up to get this for months," he said with a genuine smile as he took out the box from the paper to see the front of it.
"No sweat. I saw the blond on the cover and I thought of you. I didn't know you liked Final Fantasy."
"A little modest aren't we, Yolie," Davis said sarcastically.
"Well, I don't see you giving him a 'Happy Birthday' greeting or present!"
"Um, well, I didn't know it was his Birthday, so…um…"
"It's alright." Everyone turned to look at who had made the calm comment, Takeru. "It's alright," he repeated, "because he gave it to me two days ago."
"He did?" everyone, including Digimon, asked confused.
"I did?"
"Yep. You called me 'TK'," he answered calmly with a smile.
"Oh! Well then, a Happy Birthday to ya!" Everyone just laughed at Davis' remark and Takeru's cool logic.
'Takeru always did know how to get people out of binds like that,' thought Ken. 'He's a lot smarter than people give him credit for.'
After their picnic consisting of fruit, sushi, chocolate covered rice balls, sodas, and cupcakes for desert, they all parted ways. Davis was still oblivious as to what Takeru had done for him as Hikari giggled when they went to their apartment complex.
Ken had briefly stopped to say another 'Happy birthday' before going to his apartment. He was half way to the crosswalk when Takeru had another vision. Ken was half through the cross walk when a red sports car come tearing out of no where with two police cars on his tail. Takeru saw Ken getting hit as one of the police cars came to a stop to help and checked Ken. All the officer did was shake his head when Takeru returned to reality. He saw Ken three yards away from the crosswalk. Some punked out guy with a loudspeaker was passing by Ken so Takeru wouldn't be able to get his attention. He shoved his things into Cody's arms sense Yolie's was full and ran full speed after Ken. Yolie and Cody just looked on in surprise.
Ken was halfway through the street when a red sport car come at him form no where. His legs wouldn't move and he found he couldn't breath. His eyes were wide with fear.
By this time, Takeru was two thirds away form the crosswalk when the car came. He saw Ken stop and stare. 'I'm not going to make it! I have to make it though! I can't let him die! I won't allow it!' he thought. Takeru suddenly felt a surge of energy as his Crest of Hope appeared on his forehead, unnoticed by the preoccupied teen as he ran faster than even Ken could.
The car was halfway towards ken when Takeru got to the crosswalk, but he was going too fast to stop. Instead, he grabbed onto the streetlight pole with his left hand and jumped, allowing his arm to act as a lever to change his direction. He landed on his feet but his momentum was too great as he ended up doing a summersault on the landing and ended it back on his feet. He proceeded to run towards the stock still Ken.
The car was only a yard in front of him when ken felt the ability in his legs come back as he turned around in time to see Takeru lug for him and push him out of the way.
The friends heavily landed with Takeru on top in a protective manner as the car nicked the very tip of Takeru's shoes. As the had predicted, one of the police cars came to a screeching halt while the other went after the red car.
Ken just lay there stunned as he faintly listened to Takeru's panting near his right ear. He didn't really know what to think as Takeru slowly sat up. He just looked into his blond friend's worried, blue eyes without saying a word. He felt his eyes widen when he saw Takeru's forehead as the Crest slowly faded. He then looked back into Takeru's eyes.
All Takeru did was look into Ken's eyes to find some kind of emotion as he continued to pant. Takeru closed his eyes and chuckled as he came to terms with what had just happened. He opened them again and panted, "I can't…believe…I made it."
"Neither can I," Ken timidly agreed.
Takeru rolled off of Ken and bounded to his feet, offering a hand to Ken asking, "Are you all right?"
Ken too the offered hand and allowed Takeru to pull him up. "Ya. I will be."
The officer had gotten to them and started checking them over for injuries. Both boys had small bruises and cuts with a twisted ankle for Takeru.
"Ken! TK!" yelled a tear stained Yolie with a worried Cody close by.
"Ken, are you alright?" asked Wormon who was still in Ken's arms.
"Don't worry about me. I'm more worried about you."
"I'm fine. Besides knowing how lunch meat feels that is."
Takeru overheard and whispered, "Sorry about that."
Yolie was talking to the officer about the incident. Cody was hugging Upamon tightly as he went over to Takeru and Ken and buried his face between their shoulders. Takeru put his hand on his DNA partner's back and lightly rubbed it. Yolie then came over and squished Cody as she grabbed the older boy's necks in her arms and cried, "Don't get run over by a car again Ken, and don't you dare jump out in front of one again either TK!" she wailed.
"You don't have to worry about it," they said together. Takeru gently pried Yolie's arm from his neck so that ken could comfort her and he could comfort Cody.
They all went to Takeru's place to rest. Yolie was still crying softly into Ken's shoulder when Miss Takashi came home. "Hey kids! Umm. What's wrong?"
Takeru told her everything. After wards, Miss Takashi's eyes rolled into the back of her head as she fell in a dead faint. "Mom!! Great." Patamon had fainted as well and now this.
"Calm down, TK," Hope said, trying to sound encouraging.
'I know, I know. I don't need you to tell me that,' thought Takeru as he went to help his mom.
