little spice to the fic. Its going to have Rikato in it, and for giggles a bit

Kari/Takato (Karato).

Twisted Destiny

By Firehedgehog

Chapter Six- Visions of Destruction and meetings

      Takato sighed as he looked out his window, the sun was rising in he

horizon... why he was awake so early even he didn't know. Looking towards his

bed he smiled, the two digimon were sound asleep... thankfully not snoring so

Yamaki wouldn't notice them.

      'Its been two weeks since that day in the park' Takato thought, since

that day he had been voiding the tamers like they carried a deadly disease

(remember he doesn't think of himself as a tamer).

      Every time they saw him alone they would try to corner him, because of

this he was pretty much hiding between classes. He shivered remembering he had

seen some of their partners around the school, it had freaked him out when

they had tried to talk to him.

      'That fox digimon Renamon is freaky, I swear she tries to give me a

heart attack every time she appears like that' Takato thought, he rubbed his

arms trying to give himself comfort from the fear of those digimon.

      Yet he had to smile at the thought of two certain digimon, they didn't

scare him and they felt like best friends... they seemed like they had been put

into existence just to be his friend.

      Finally he realized he had to get dressed, Yamaki would be getting up

soon and he would probably like to have breakfast ready for him before he

headed out. Walking to his dresser and closet he pulled clothing different

from his usual out, but they were still dark colors.

      He wore the usual tight black jeans, a long sleeve black T-shirt, black

socks and Black sneakers. Last he wore dark red fingerless gloves each with

the hazard symbol on them, the last touch was a blue bandana around his

forehead with flame designs on it. The bandana was new to his clothing,

because of Veemon he wanted something to go with his smaller partner.

      "Nice," a voice said, Takato turned with a grin to look at his partners

who had finally woken up.

      "Thanks you two," he said, he then slipped out of the room to prepare

breakfast for his guardian and himself.

***

      Yamaki smiled as he entered the kitchen, Takato had once again woken up

before him and prepared breakfast. The red eyed youth was such a good kid, but

sometimes he wondered what Takato would have been like if those monsters

hadn't attacked and killed his parents years ago.

      "Here you go," Takato said with a smile, he placed a warm cup of coffee

in front of Yamaki as he sat down at the table. Soon both of them were eating

a healthy breakfast, but all too soon the food was gone.

      "Well, I have to head off to a meeting at work now," Yamaki said getting

up, Takato nodded.

      "Yuck... meetings, have fun. At least today I have no school, see you

later," Takato said making a face, Yamaki gave a laugh and messed the brown

haired boys hair with his hand.

      "Be good," he teased, Takato stuck his tongue out at the blond.

      "I will," he retorted with a smile, Yamaki nodded and slipped out of the

apartment. He wasn't worried about Takatos reactions to him, this was a joke

between them for the last several years.

***

      Guilmon smiled as he walked out of Takatos bedroom, the man known as

Yamaki had finally left. That meant the two digimon were free to range the

apartment, that is as long as they kept out of sight if anyone dropped by

suddenly.

      "Finally," Veemon said happily, both dragon digimon nodded and went to

the table to be fed breakfast.

      "Bread rolls or cereal?" Takato asked, they were about to answer when

the bread rolls Takato had been holding fell to the ground.

      "Takato?" Guilmon said, both gasped as the red eyed teen's eyes suddenly

rolled back and he fell limply to the ground.

      "Takato!" they both yelled running to their partner, quickly they got

him comfy and tried to wake him up. Yet nothing worked, the two could only

hope he was okay and would wake up soon.

      'Please be okay Takato, I don't want to loose another partner' Veemon

thought sadly, as it was he could only watch helplessly as his partner lay

unmoving and very pale.

***

      Kari shivered as she sat in her bed, her brown eyes looked around

nervously. For the last two weeks it had felt as if something had been hunting

her, the others thought she was just being paranoid because of Davis

vanishing... but she knew it was more.

      "If your awake, why don't you get me milk," a tired voice asked, Kari

smiled down at Gatomon who hadn't been sleeping well because Kari wasn't.

      "Might as well," Kari said with a sigh, she climbed out of bed after

putting a pair of slippers on.

      Quickly she slipped through though the halls of her families apartment,

since it was still early she could hear the sounds of her family sleeping...

most especially her brother snoring lightly.

      "Milk," Gatomon said cheerfully as they entered the kitchen, Kari

giggled... even though Gatomon was a digimon she was a cat and loved milk.

      "Here you go," Kari said pouring a glass of milk, she was just about to

pass it to Gatomon when she felt a strange shiver... and the world went black.

***

      ~Crash~

      Gatomon gasped when Kari's face went white and she fell to the ground

limp, she ignored the fallen broken glass and splattered milk.... Something was

wrong with Kari.

      "Kari," she cried shaking the child of light, but nothing could wake the

girl up. Soon the rest of the family arrived since the glass braking had woken

them, yet even they could get Kari to waken or even respond.

***

      'Where am I' Takato thought, he found himself in a deserted and much

destroyed place... a place that looked a hell of like the digital world in the

TV show.

      Suddenly light flashed across the sky, startled he looked up... and gasped

in amazement.

      In the sky was an amazing draconian creature with a human like stature,

it was beautiful... yet tugged at his memory. Then his eyes widened, he had seen

this creature once in his dreams. Yet he knew it was a digimon, yet none he

knew the name too... and he felt no fear towards it.

      "Crazy," he whispered, he shivered at what it was fighting... it looked

like a demon from hell... a demented fallen angel from hell was a more accurate

description.

      Suddenly he felt something strange, not knowing why he turned around...

and found himself facing a brown haired girl his age in a pair of pink pajamas

and slippers. Light seemed to shine inside her, she felt as if she was someone

he could trust.

***

      "No... the digital world," Kari cried sadly, it was dead... burned... turning

into spare data.

      Salty tears fell down her face, quickly she whipped them away knowing

she had to find out what was going on. The last thing she knew was that she

was home getting Gatomon milk, then she was in this place seeing a destroyed

digital world... something she feared.

      She gasped as light filled the air with a bright flash, startled she

looked up to see what it was. Flying in the air were two creatures, one was an

unknown digimon that she didn't recognize... and the other... felt like the thing

that she had felt hunting her.

      'I have to get out of here' she thought looking around, then she froze

as she saw someone standing a few feet away with there back to her. Why she

hadn't seen this person before she didn't know, but she hoped this person

would have answers for this weird dream.

      Suddenly the person spun around to face her, to her startelment she

found herself staring at a boy her age. He had short messy brown hair and a

pale heart shaped face, but what caught her attention were his eyes.

      They were crimson a strange color for sure... yet they held more sorrow

and knowledge then anyone should at his age. His eyes reflected things that

things no mortal should ever feel, it was as if he had faced demons on there

own turf and managed to escape sane.

      Then his dark clothing she studies, they fit him nicely for some reason

and gave her the feeling that he might me a loner type of person. She blinked

seeing a symbol on each of his fingerless gloves, they were triangular design

black in color... what they meant she didn't know. Then she studied his blue

bandana with the flame designs on it, the bandana reminded her of flamedramon.

      "Who are you?" the boy asked, his voice was laced with suspicion... yet

she felt hope far away in it.

      "My name is Kari, who are you?" she asked curious, he smiled slightly...

and she had a feeling he didn't smile often.

      "Takato," he said softly, it was then that Kari felt something appear in

her pocket and it began to glow softly.

      "..." She said softly, curious Takato walked closer till he was right in

front of her while she pulled it out.

      "What is it?" Takato asked, she blinked and looked at it.

      "Two bracelets," she told him, in her hand were two bracelets white in

color with two symbols on them. One symbol was her own... light, and the other

was the symbol on the boys glove.

      "The hazard symbol," Takato said in surprise, at least that explained

what the symbol was.

      "Here," she said passing one to him, he took it and placed it around his

left wrist which it fit perfectly. Not knowing what else to do she put the

other on her right wrist, it also fit perfectly.

      "Kari... this is no dream as far as I can see, and I have the feeling we

will meet again in person," Takato said suddenly, she nodded also having that

feeling... both gasped as the vision began to fade around them.

      "Not now," Takato said with a sigh, Kari frowned not wanting to say

goodbye yet... not knowing why she stepped forward and kissed him gently on the

cheek.

      "See you around," she said, he nodded his face as red as his crimson

eyes with her face was red also.

      'Why did I do that?' Kari thought as the world faded even more and

Takato vanished, but she smiled... he had been cute.

***

      Kari woke up to the concerned faces of her family and Gatomon, she found

herself in bed with the blanket arranged comfortably around her.

      "Are you okay Kari?" Gatomon said in concern, Kari nodded then winced

feeling a bruise on the back of her head.

      "Kari... sweety, I want you to stay home and rest. You lacked out for no

reason and I want you o rest, Gatomon will be here to look after you and to

call Tai if anything happens," her mother said, Kari nodded while everyone

left.

      It was half an hour later she was still in bed, Gatomon was sleeping

softly at her side.

      'What a weird dream' Kari thought, she blushed as she remembered kissing

the cute dream boy Takato.

      It was at that moment she felt something on her right wrist, lifting her

arm up she gasped... it was the bracelet... the bracelet she had gotten in the

dream.

      'What does this mean' she thought confused, and if the boy was real did

the vision of destruction in the digital world mean it would happen also.

***

      Takato woke with a groan, slowly his eyes fluttered open.

      "Ackkk!" he shouted, you would of shouted too if two digimon were two

inches when you woke up.

      "Are you alright Takato?" Veemon and Guilmon asked as one, he nodded...

and it was then that he felt something around his left wrist.

      "You two, I have a feeling things are about to become a lot more

complicated," he said, they blinked and he held up his wrist to show them the

bracelet. He had a lot of thinks to tell them, and he had a feeling Veemon

would be able to tell him more about Kari.

***

      "What's with the bracelet?" the cloaked man said, he sighed at the

voices answer, one day he would strangle the other for those answers.

      "That's no answer... yet again, what do you mean it's a type of link?" he

asked, the other laughed.

      "I give up (moans in defeat), your such a pain in the butt," he growled,

laughter filled the air.

      "How does Gennai deal with the sovereigns, this guy is just as powerful

but is twelve times more annoying then the southern sovereign," he growled, he

stomped out of sight to cool off.

TBC

Well that was an interesting chapter, as to the little kiss Rikato fans don't

kill me... before Takato heads to the destined dimension Rika will get her

moment (grins). I'm planning to get Takato to work with the other tamers, how

I don't know... oh yeah... down below is a maybe scene for the next chapter.

Ja ne

      Rika swore as she slammed into someone and fell to the ground, she

quickly stood up and after brushing herself off turned to glare at the person

she had run into.

      Red eyes so familiar to her once met her purple ones, a heart shaped

face framed by messy brown hair... all that was missing was the goggles.

      "Takato," she said softly, the once gogglehead winced as he recognized

her.

      "Oh great, one of the tamers," he growled, she winced... at this moment

she wanted the clumsy always smiling Takato she had loved in the original

timeline.

      "Takato... I'm sorry," she said, he glared at her and turned to walk away.

      "Wait," she called, quickly she reached forward and grabbed his left

hand not noticing the silver bracelet on it.

      "Huh," he said turning, his cheeks were red not with anger but with some

other emotion. Rika found herself blushing like him, what was wrong with her...

but why did it feel so right.
