Survival of Light and Hope Chapter 12: Roll of the Dice
A/N: I'm trying my best, here. This story is nearly at a end. Now we all know that their child is going to be something special due to the prophecy. I'm still debating if I should make another sequel to this making the child the main character and about their adventures in the Digital World or whatnot. I was also planning to start my own full-fledged non-Digimon novel, so I'm not sure if I'm going to have the time. I'm always open for suggestions and I'm always happy to hear positive and criticism reviews.
As TK and Kari entered the reception hall, they were greeted by the caterers. One by one, the guests piled into the hall. They all had a wonderful, yet costly dinner at the reception hall and then the dancing began.
TK and Kari took the floor for the first dance; their first dance as a married couple. The two romantically kissed as the song came to an end, and for the second song, Mr. Kamiya danced with his daughter. He whispered to her, "Kari, I love you and I respect you for making this decision. You couldn't have picked a better man." She smiled to her father and replied by saying, "Thanks dad, I love you too."
The night went on as Matt's band performed nice, gentle hits like Oasis' "Stop Crying Your Heart Out" and "Late Goodbye" by the Poets of the Fall. After a little while, Matt told TK that someone wanted to see him up on the stage. TK was elaborated to see that Chris Martin had decided to come to the wedding. He sang "Trouble", which was the same song TK and Kari had danced to at TK's birthday party. Later, Matt invited Mimi onstage, who had taken up singing recently, and the two sang a hit sung by Finley Quaye and Beth Orton, "Dice". Sora and Tai watched their lovers' onstage sing gracefully at their little siblings wedding.
"Nothing can compare to when you roll the dice and swear your love's for me..."
When Chris Martin took the mic again, it gave Matt and Mimi a break so they could dance with Tai and Sora. By this time, everyone was dancing, even Kari's parents. Yolie and Ken were dancing, along with Davis and Kristine. TK even took the microphone and sang the popular song "500 Miles" by the Proclaimers to Kari.
"And I would walk 500 Miles and I would walk 500, just to be the man who walked a thousand miles to fall down at your door..."
TK and Kari shared an intimate kiss after TK's performance. The night ended with Mimi singing Sarah Brightman's hit "Deliver Me".
"All of my life, I've been in hiding, wishing there was someone just like you...now that you're here, now that I've found you, I know that you're the one to pull through..."
TK and Kari couldn't exactly afford a honeymoon. TK was saving up all of his money for the child when it came. TK did however promise Kari that he would take her on the honeymoon of her dreams as soon as he could afford it. TK was always known for doing things for other and never asking for anything in return.
After the long day, the two returned to the Takaishi residence. TK and Kari still slept in separate beds, Nancy didn't want any funny business going on, even if the two were married. They did cuddle for a bit, then the long day came to an end.
The next morning, TK decided to tell his mother that he and Kari are moving into an apartment in September. At first, she was outraged. She didn't know if she could believe that TK was ready to raise a family on his own. She called over the Kamiyas and they spent most of the day talking about the topic. The parents questioned them what they are going to do about school. TK said that if he had to quit school to support the baby, that he didn't have another choice. Mrs. Takaishi objected to this and offered to watch the baby during the day while he and Kari are in school. Mr. and Mrs. Kamiya thought it was a good idea and also offered to take turns with Nancy to watch the baby. Their grandchild. TK and Kari were very grateful that their parents have decided to help them so much with the whole situation.
TK went with Kari for her ultrasound. The doctor asked them if they wanted to know if the baby was a boy or a girl, but they declined. They wanted to have the element of surprise there at birth. The doctor told them that the baby is coming along fine, healthy and all. The doctor did sense there was something different than this baby then the rest he has done check-ups on. The baby had a slight aura to it, a feeling that the doctor couldn't quite tell what it was.
It was a few days into the month of September, with Kari's due date coming closer and closer with every hour. TK remembered about the prophecy that Gennai told about Izzy, something about ninety-one before a thousand being a day of goodness...he wasn't quite sure what it was all about. He knew, however, that ninety-one before a thousand, 909, was a date, September 9th which was Kari's due date. TK tried to put the puzzle pieces together and figure out how their child has to do with some prophecy from the Digital World.
Tai and Matt were walking down Main Street the day after the wedding. "You know man," Tai said to his best friend, "TK's inspired me, and I think I'm going to ask Mimi to marry me." "Dude, I've been thinking about doing the same thing with Sora!" "Are you serious, man? We will all be married, that would be awesome!" "I know eh?" "So...are we gonna do it?" "Do what?" "Ask them to marry us?" "Yeah man!" "Ok, let's make a pact." Tai said, as he stuck out his hand. Matt shook it firmly. "We're gonna do it. We're gonna ask those girls to marry us!"
"TK, come here, you can really feel the baby!" Kari called over her husband, as she sat on the couch. Her due date was only a day away now. TK rushed over to the couch and put his hand on Kari's abdomen. The kicks the baby was sending were fairly strong, and TK didn't understand how women can put up with the pain. "Wow." TK said. "This kid is going to be one tough cookie." Kari giggled at TK's remark. "Hey, TK?" "Yea, Kari?" "Do you think we're lucky to have our parents help us out with this whole thing? Like, wouldn't normal parents like disown their children or something?" "Our parents are different Kari. They are loving and caring." "Why is that, though?" "I guess it was just a roll of the dice." "Do you think me and you were a roll of the dice?" Kari questioned him. TK looked deep into her eyes. He smiled at her. "No I don't Kari. I think me and you...I think we were meant to be." "Why, TK?" "Because I know that I wouldn't be able to live without you." "Aww, TK!" Kari cried, as she pulled him in for a kiss. "I love you so much." She whispered into his ear. The expression on her face drastically changed. "But right now, I think we need to go to the hospital..."
