You seem very supportive considering that you are going to kiss me the whole time I write it. K: oh, all right.... *Kiss kiss kiss.... *

Chapter 5:

It was the day of the date. I wondered how Ken was feeling. Me? I was a nervous wreck!

By six o'clock I kept wondering if he would like my dress and everything but my mom assured me that guys don't give two hoots about what you wear.

Ken picked me up wearing a snazzy but not too fancy tux, carrying flowers.

We were both were at a loss for words except one,

"Wow."

He walked me to a restaurant called "Morealli's". When we got there I saw Matt and June there. I waved and Matt gave me a look that said, "Get me out of here!!!"

We ordered and not soon after Ken had to use the little boy's room. So he did. Only, he came back after 15 seconds.

"Are you okay?" I asked. He looked a little pale and a lot scared.

"Bethany," he said shakily. "I have something to tell you."

"Oh no," I replied. He had probably seen his other girlfriend on the way there and now he has to tell me he's two timing me. "Another girl?"

"No, no," he reassured me. "Um, I have something called dark spore. You're not going to believe any of this, I know, but it makes me smarter and better at sports. And that's great; only, it puts me in extreme danger."

"Ken what's wrong?" I was getting a little panicky by now.

"Well, there's this guy named Oikawa and he's after my dark spore. He already tried to take it once. Whenever he gets near me my neck burns like the devil and he's right,"

Ken was cut off because a man with a grey, clammy complexion, long, black hair and a purple trench coat jumped out of the bathrooms.

", there." He finished before doubling over on the floor crying out in pain. I could see his neck; it was burning a bright red. Now I was concerned.

"Ken!!" I yelled.

Before anyone in the restaurant could notice what was going on, Oikawa pulled out what appeared to be a harmless super ball. He held it up and mystic multi-colored beams came out of it. Stopping time and everyone who was not a digi- destined.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!" Ken screamed in pain before passing out.

Oikawa dashed over and grabbed Ken by the hair. He clutched a piece of cloth and bound Ken's arms together behind his back.

"I gotta' help Ken." I murmured.

I watched, helpless under the table as the frightening man dragged Ken away. One thought lingered in my mind, why hadn't I been frozen in time with everyone else?
