"Here we go, how about i go as a rock star?"
"Matt," Kari said politely, "let me remind you that you ARE a rock star!" Matt, Tai, and Kari were shopping at a costume shop downtown. "Oh yea. Well, here's one. . .how about a waffle?"
Kari rolled her eyes. Turning to her brother who was intentedly searching through rack upon rack for his legendary princess costume, she asked, "Well? Did you find it yet?"
Tai took only another moment before excitedly pulling something out from the rack. "Here, Kari, go try it on," With that, he shoved it in her arms and shoed her off to the dressing room.
Five minutes later, Kari returned wearing a long blue satin gown with ruffles and lace everywhere. On the back was a long train and the ends of the sleeves hung down to her knees. With a twirl and a smile from ear to ear, it was apparent that she had made up her mind.
"Uhh, wow! Gee, Kari, you look fantastic," Matt said, astonished that his best friend's little sister could very easily be mistaken for a beautiful princess.
"See, what did i tell you, Kar, it's perfect," he said. Yea, perfect to match TK's outfit. "How much does it cost?" he said looking at the tag.
"Tai, why are your eyes hanging out of your head like that?" Kari said looking down at the tag as Tai fell to the floor, eyes still hanging out of his head. She then looked at the tag herself. "Oh my!" Kari said as she began to fall, squashing Tai.
"Guys, this isn't funny, come on, put your eyeball back in your heads. Guys?" Matt stood there and looked down at his two friends, who were out cold. He had no idea what to do about them. Just as he was about to call for help there was a loud shout behind him.
"MATT!!" It was Jun. The poor guy turned around slowly to face her. "Matt! I'm so glad that you're here. Are you going to Sora's party?"
"Uhh, of course i am, she's my girlfriend." Matt scratched his back nervously.
"Oh, you are a silly one, Matt! Well, i am going as a cheerleader. So, that means you have to go as a football player!" She pulled a costume out from behind her back and handed it to him.
"Uhhh, sure, Jun, a football player. I was actually planning on. ."
"Well, see you there! Don't forget to bring your football! Bye Matt!" Jun turned and left, waving back every other step she took. When she was out of sight, Matt quickly put the football player costume down.
"Well, if Jun is going, that means I'll have to be very well disguised." He walked to a random rack. "Here we go, perfect! Grim Reaper. Comes with long black robe and a scythe!" Matt paused only a short moment before running to the cash register and buying it. He was out of the store and half way down the block before he realized he had left Kari and Tai in the store.
"Thank you for selling your blood for my costume, Tai!" Kari said with an innocent smile as she walked happily carrying her brand new princess outfit. She looked at Tai for a response. His face was pure white. "You, silly brother, need a nap! You always wear your self out!"
Tai looked down at his sister who was walking contentedly beside him and got only another smile. This is good, he thought. Now, they can match. Too bad I'm going to die from loss of blood. Gee, i didn't even know i had 28 gallons of blood in me.
"You are going as a what??!?!?" Sora sounded angry.
"The grim reaper. If I'm going escape the infamous Jun. She won't even know it's me!"
"But I'm going as Tinkerbell! And you WERE supposed to be Peter Pan! What is wrong with you? You're turning into Davis!" Sora hung up the phone.
Girls! I'm glad she's not as bad a Jun. Oh i hope that Jun doesn't recognize me. I want to dance with Sora. But that would mean going as Peter Pan which would expose me to Jun, thus defeating the purpose of pursuing Sora. Girls!
"Meow!"
"Hello? Who is this?" Ken was a little frightened.
"Meow!" the voice repeated somewhat louder and more cat like. "Meow, meow, meow, meow! It's you're girlfriend silly!"
"Oh Gina, hi!"
"GINA?!?! WHO'S GINA?!?!" Miyako almost jumped through the phone.
"Miyako, calm down. I was just kidding. You're the only one i love and you know that."
"Oh, umm, i knew that!" Miyako was glad Ken couldn't see the embarrassed look on her face at the moment.
"So, i take it you're going as a kitty cat this Friday. Kute idea. You DON'T want to know what i am going to be." Ken laughed.
"It is a dog?"
"Nope, not even close."
"Well, it's certainly not a waffle. That's too silly. I've got it! You're going as a giraffe! Wow, great costume idea!"
"Umm, yea. Well, i guess it will have to be a surprise." Ken replied.
"Well, the real reason i was calling was to see if you would like to go out to dinner tonight."
"You know that I'd love to. What did you have in mind?"
"Well," she started sweetly, "There is this new fancy restaurant opening up tonight, and i kinda made reservations."
"You mean McDonalds? Sure, I'll take you there!"
"Ken! Don't be a big stupid. I mean the one with the world famous chef, Angelina Poniatowsina from Italy."
". . ."
"Ken?"
". . ."
"Hello? Ken? Are you there?"
". . ."
"Okay, well I'll see you at eight! I love you! Bye!" Miyako hung up and looked at herself in the mirror. She definitely liked her outfit. She wondered if she'd match Ken, whatever he was wearing. It had better not be a waffle, she though as she skipped off to get ready for dinner.
"A prince? You think I'd look good as a prince?"
"Yep!" replied Matt. He chuckled as he remembered a time when he had said that to his dad to leave Jun behind.
TK was looking deeply at a prince costume lying on Matt's bed.
"Well, are you going to try it on? You didn't come all the way over here to just look at it did you?"
"Oh, right," TK put the costume on and walked to the mirror.
"Wow, ya know, you look almost as good in it as i did when i wore it. Although your looks won't ever entirely surpass mine. . ."
"Umm, Matt?"
Matt snapped out of his thought and looked again noting how good Kari was going to look with TK.
"Matt? What are you thinking? You have that look on your face. I know you're up to something.
Just then, Tai walked in.
"Hey, Tai. You sure are looking better than you did yesterday. What do you think?" Matt put both hands out presentingly.
Tai gazed at TK for only a moment. "It's absolutely perfect!"
"I know," Matt agreed. "I was just thinking that."
TK looked from Tai to Matt.
"This is going to be great. I'm glad we thought of this."
TK looked back to Tai. "What are you guys talking about, may i ask?"
"Oh nothing!" Tai and Matt replied in unison.
"We were just thinking about this new girl we were going to set you up with. She's really cute!" Matt lied.
"A new girl?" TK asked, crestfallen. That must mean that Kari doesn't like me.
"Yes, and she's perfect for you. She's uhh, she's one of our friend's little sister." Tai continued.
"Oh, thanks guys, but i umm, i already like someone." TK turned his gaze to the picture of the digidestined from a long time ago hanging on Matt's mirror. He and Kari stood there, young and resilient. Kari looked very cute. Kari. Why can't i tell you how much i like you? I'm sure that if you only knew, you'd forget all about Davis. Why do you have to like him? I've liked you so much longer.
"Hey, TK. So are you going to wear that or not?"
"I guess. It does look good. And it IS better than going as a waffle." TK hoped that this costume would be better than Davis's. Hey, maybe Davis will go as a waffle. Kari would definitely hate him after that. Hey, maybe, just maybe, she'll be a. . .
"Alright. So it's settled."
Tai and Matt smiled a private smile to each other. TK wondered what it was all about.
"You, guys. I'll find out what's up."
"Yes, you will, TK. But not yet. You just wait."
TK took one more look in the mirror before taking the costume off. He hoped that Kari would like it.
"Matt," Kari said politely, "let me remind you that you ARE a rock star!" Matt, Tai, and Kari were shopping at a costume shop downtown. "Oh yea. Well, here's one. . .how about a waffle?"
