A Meeting Like No Other

Chapter Six: Just Another Manic Monday.

A woman with brown hair that reached just passed her shoulder sat at the kitchen table drinking coffee. She had a frown on her face and didn't look too happy. She was obviously in some sort of distress.

"You okay, honey?" her husband asked her as he walked out of their bedroom. She just sighed and said, "No. I'm worried about them. It's been two days and we have no idea where they are."

Her husband sat down next to her and took her hand in his. "I know." He said. "But we can't lose hope. Either we'll find them or they'll find a way back here. I promise." The woman smiled and said, "I always believe you when you make a promise, TK. You've never broken one yet."

He returned her smile. "Well, I don't plan on breaking any of my promises, Kari, especially this one. We'll get our kids back."

*TK's P.O.V *

Just great. I'm going to be late for school! My alarm clock just had to be broken didn't it? Well, actually, I kind of broke it when I threw it against the wall because I wanted the alarm to shut up. Oh well, I guess I'll have to buy a new one.

When I arrived at the school, I only had four minutes to get to my locker and then to class before the bell rang, so I had to run like my life depended on it. It's times like these when hate the fact that my locker is on the complete opposite side of the school from my class. Fortunately for me I'm on the basketball team so I'm pretty good at running, although, at this point I wish I was on the track team instead.

I got into my history class just as the bell rang and I quickly got into my seat right next to Kari. "You're lucky. You just barely made it on time." Kari whispered to me. "Yeah I know. I really didn't want to have to get a detention for being late." I replied.

Our history teacher, Mr. Fink, stood at the front of the room and said, "Alright students, please turn in your homework." "Homework?!" Kari and I exclaimed at the same time. With all the craziness that happened over the weekend, Kari and I forgot all about the one page essay that we had to write. "Looks like we're both getting zeros for that assignment." I said. "That's not funny. My mom will kill me if she finds out." Kari said.

Great. This day has already started off badly. Hopefully it won't get any worse. Yet, for some reason, I have a feeling that it will get worse.

Mr. Fink started to blabber on about something but I wasn't really paying attention so I don't really know what it was about. I think it was something about The Renaissance, but I don't really know.

I started to think about our trip to the Digiworld later today. I wonder if Gennai will know how to get our four kids back to the future. I hope he'll know. I don't think those kids would want to be stuck in the past forever.

I looked over at Kari and noticed that she looked very spaced out. I don't think she was listening to what Mr. Fink was saying either. The thing that Kari and I agree on most is that we both thing history is boring!

After a long, dreadful class, the bell finally rang. Kari and I grabbed our things and left the room and went to our next class. "See you at lunch, TK." Kari said as she walked off to her algebra class and I headed to my physics class.

*Kayla's P.O.V *

This is so boring. There's nothing to do. It's obvious from the look on my sister and brothers' faces that they feel the same way that I do. So I, being the oldest of course, could not stand for this, so I decided to come up with a plan.

"It won't hurt anyone if we just left here and went somewhere interesting." I said. "We're supposed to stay here until our young 'mother and father' return from school." Amy said. A mischievous smiled crawled on Shane's face. "Since when did we start listening to our parents." I must say that Shane is right. Doing what we were told was never something we did very often.

"Well, Kayla, where do you plan on going?" asked Ryan. Hmm, I hadn't thought about that. We've already been to the park and beach. Hey! I got the best idea. It'll probably be the most foolish thing we've ever done. It's perfect! "We could go pay a little visit to our 'parents' in school!" I told them.

The expressions on my siblings' faces were priceless. "Kayla are you insane!" Amy exclaimed. "We can't go there. No one is supposed to know about us." "C'mon, Amy, quit being such a wuss. It's not like were gonna go and tell every student that we're TK and Kari's kids from the future. Besides, it'll be funny seeing our parents in school." I said.

The three of took a minute to think about it. Then Ryan said, "It would actually be fun. It's better than staying in this apartment all day with nothing to do." I could always count on Ryan to back me up. "Count me in." Shane said. We all stared at Amy for her response. "Fine! I'll go too." "Great! Off we go!" said Shane.

*Kari's P.O.V *

The bell had finally rung and at last it was lunchtime. I walked over to my locker to put my books away and then walked cafeteria to buy my lunch.

When I got to the lunch area outside, TK, Davis, and Cody were already there. "Hey guys." I greeted them as I sat down across form TK. "Hey." They all replied. "What were you guys talking about?" I asked. "Davis was just telling us how much he wants to drop out of school." Cody explained. That was nothing new. Davis always wants to drop out of school. But then again, who doesn't? "I feel the same way." I said. "Why? You're an A student." TK said. "That's true but it doesn't mean that I like doing school work." I said. "There's just no point in being in school." Davis whined.

"Davis, if you don't stay in school then you'll be nothing more than a worthless bum." Yolie said from behind us. She and Ken were just approaching our table. "It's nice to see you too, Yolie." Davis said sarcastically.

"Are you guys ready for our trip to the Digiworld later today?" asked Ken. "Yeah. Do you think Gennai will actually be able to figure how the Takaishi kids got here and how to get them back to their time?" Cody asked. "I'm sure he'll know something." TK said.

"I'll actually miss them when they leave." I said. It's true, I really would miss them. "I will too, Kar, but they can't stay here forever." TK said. "I know, but I'll still miss them."

"Aww…we'll miss you, too." Said an all too familiar voice. "Kayla?!" TK and I said in unison. Then we the others there with here. "What are you guys doing here?" TK exclaimed. "We got bored being in Matt and Sora's place all day." Ryan explained.

"You guys can't be here. This is our school. You have to leave." I said. I started to panic. We can't let anyone see them. "Oh c'mon. What's the worst that could happen?" Kayla said. Obviously this kids weren't kidding when they said they had a reputation for being mischievous.

Unfortunately we got caught. One of the schoolteachers walked over to us. "Mr. Takaishi, Miss Kamiya, who are these kids. You know you aren't allowed to bring any guests to school so I suggest they leave immediately." I didn't know what to say so I looked to TK, hoping he would have a decent excuse.

"Uh…sorry about that Mrs. Jennings but…uh…these are my cousins, who are visiting me and my mom for a while and they just, uh, wanted to tell me that…uh…t-that they were going to visit my brother so they won't be home when I returned home from school." TK said. TK never was such a great liar.

Mrs. Jennings eyed him suspiciously. "Well they could have just left you note at home or something. They should not have come here. Now, like I said before, they must leave immediately. In fact, I'll escort them out." "There's no need for that, Mrs. Jennings. TK and I will escort them out." I said. "Fine. Just make sure they leave." She said and then walked away. TK and I let out a sigh of relief.

We walked the four of them to the front of the school. "What were you guys thinking by coming here?" TK asked. "We were thinking it would be fun." Amy said very calmly. "You know, this school didn't change much. This is the school that Kayla and I go to." Ryan said. "Could you guys just go back to Matt and Sora's? School will be over in a couple hours and then we'll all go to the Digiworld." TK said. Kayla raised her hands to surrender. "Fine. We'll go back. Don't have a cow."

With that, the four of them turned are walked away. For the first time in my life I knew what it was like to feel like a parent who just wants to punish their kids.

The joys or parenting. Oh brother!
