Thanks to you who reviewed, it was much appreciated and welcome. What I
was trying to get across was that though she was fully awake, she was still
dreaming, if that makes any sense. Well, after all this chatter, I suppose
you think I own digimon, but alas alak, I don't. After all of this, on to
the story.

"Kari?"
'That voice, I know it from somewhere.'
"Hey, Kari, are you getting up?"
'Get up, for school! Oh!' "Tai!"
"Yes?" came the confused and muffled voice through the door to the room. Her room.
"Huh? Oh, never mind." 'Why did I call his name? Oh well, better get ready fast or he'll probably have finished his breakfast and be waiting.'
Completely forgetting her earlier puzzlement, Kari was about to leave her room when her computer beep at her. Mentally berating herself for forgetting to turn it off last night, she started to read the very short email that had popped up.
Kari, something strange has finally come up in the digital
world. Could you please contact all the rest of the gang and
tell them to meet in the computer lab after school? Thanks, I'm
going to do more research, see you there. Izzy
ps. bring your D3. -I
Wondering what could possibly be the matter after several years of peace, Kari absentmindedly typed a reply and left her room. Running back into her room to get her D3, she stopped as she had suddenly remembered that she had had a dream.
'Cool! A dream!' she thought to herself, but the only thing she remembered was white. 'Well, it probably wasn't important anyway. I would like to remember it if it was another about, Kari, get a hold of your self, go eat.' Sighing and smiling slightly, Kari left the room.
As expected Tai had already finished breakfast and was waiting impatiently by the door. Kari vaguely heard him mumbling something about how girls always took so long. As she looked around the kitchen for something to eat on the go, she decided that she would tell him on the way in. Thus forestalling all conversations about the bad habits of vanity. Besides, if the rumor was true the dance would be announced today, and if she wanted to get invited by a certain somebody, she should look at least half way decent. Laughing at her brother's impatient antics, Kari walked out the door, breakfast in hand.
Bee- wham!
TK was in no mood for such noises. Also, he was already awake, and had been for some time. He had woken up after a very disturbing dream, and he was still pondering what it could have meant.
Lately he had been having pleasant dreams. Dreams that he was sure his brother would understand, but ones he wouldn't want to talk about. Most had been about the person he loved, nothing bad, mind, just nice images, like picnics or dinners, and the like. Nice, clean, happy dreams that he had hoped he would some day be able to actually imitate in real life. But last nights dream had been different.
Last night, his dreams had started as usual, but halfway through each and every scene, she had disappeared. It seemed she had disappeared from his very thoughts,
'No, not my thoughts exactly, but from the very earth. As if the only thing I had left of her was my thoughts, the very images them selves.' he corrected himself. 'And I clearly remember one dream in which I was looking for her, but keep on coming up against a blank wall.'
What had really woken him up however was the thought of losing her, again. He had always kept a close eye on Kari, especially after the dark ocean incident.
'I will not lose her again,' he told himself for the thousandth time. Even if it had happened years ago, he still blamed himself, as his occasional nightmares showed to any physiatrists. And for the thousandth time, he berated himself to tell her how he felt.
'After all,' he reminded himself, 'the worst thing she could do is laugh, and that's a nice sound to hear, not a deadly one.' It was this fear, and the thought of possibly ruining the close friendship they shared, that had stilled his tongue many times before.
'Next time, next time' he repeated to himself as he got ready for school. 'The next chance I get, I'll tell her.'
Well, yes, that's it for now. It is a slightly boring start, but you might just see glimmers of the future if you look hard enough. It may be a little while before the next chapter, as I am starting school again, but fear not! (any who actually read this that is..) This WILL be continued, and I promise, the end will be worth waiting for. I have it all planned out. Well, later!
