Chapter 13: The fighter of the wind.

"Omegadramon, isn't it a bit awkward and impossible right now for Kari to find her own Ether-egg?" Reika asked.

"No." Omegadramon answered heaving a sigh.

"It's not?" Freeda asked a sparkle of hope ion her voice mingled with surprise, "But how can we find Kari's Ether-egg?"

" 'We' cannot, only she can find and use it when she is ready." Omegadramon replied.

"When I'm ready?" Kari managed to ask as she saw T.K fly back from a heavy blow by Kenya.

"Yes." Omegadramon answered, "T.K found it easy to get his digi-spirit and use it because he found something worth fighting for."

"Huh? Something worth fighting for?" Gatomon asked.

"Yes. He had already realized and found the truth during that time when he was in grave danger." Omegadramon explained, "That's why he managed to transform himself in a brief moment.

Back at the bout.

Both Kenya and T.K are at the brink of completely loosing their energy, both are tired, angry and exasperated.

"Why don't you believe me anymore, T.K?" Kenya asked in between his breath.

"I have never believe you nor have I met you!" Kenya replied casually.

Then T.K positioned his shield like before, aimed toward Kenya. Kari and the others except Omegadramon were shocked.

"T.K! stop it! This is wrong!!" Kari shouted.

T.K heard her completely and while still facing Kenya and charging for the final attack, T.K replied, "How do you know wether what I am doing IS right or wrong, Kari?"

"Fighting and specially trying to kill your friend certainly isn't my idea of right!" Kari answered back.

"I don't believe, "T.K began, "that even you, Kari, won't do this when you know what I know and see what I can see."

Then T.K closed his eyes, and while he did, Kenya became paralysed by T.K's intense 'chi', at the same time Omegadramon began to talk once again.

"Kari, " he said, "have you began to doubt T.K after all that you two have been through together?"

Kari was surprised at what Omegadramon asked then replied as audible as a whisper, "Yeah..b-but.this is different Omegadramon."

The shield that T.K aimed at Kenya still continued to gather energy while T.K was still shut-eyed, Omegadramon then asked, "What is so different about it Kari?"

Kari remained silent with his head bowed as well as the others.

"Are you starting to trust this guy whom you just met several days ago, or are you going to trust this person whom you've grown up with again? Maybe, you trust Kenya because he saved your life as well as the others." Omegadramon continue to speak.

While he did, silence still filled the air that only T.K's charging shield could be heard as well as Omegadramon's deep, loud breathing.

"Kari, I do not blame you, nor the others around here. I know that with a kind and loving heart as yours you have a feeling of fear and sadness inside yourself to see a friend die.but this I only ask of you." Omegadramon slowly opened his eyes slowly and so did T.K.

Kari then looked up at Omegadramon as he continued and concluded, "Please have faith in both T.K and me once more."

Kari looked as if she remembered something very important and when she looked at T.K who was smiling weakly at her, she understood what it is.

But Kenya wouldn't allow himself to be defeated this time, "Do you really think that that petty speech of yours will work?" He asked T.K instead of Omegadramon. But T.K just looked at him with a smile of contempt.

"What are you smiling at?" Kenya asked, "are you mocking me?!"

The he heard Kari's voice echoing from the distance, "That's right, it was because I was afraid to know the truth.I forgot how important trust is."

Just then, a blinding white-blue light began to shine from the top of Kari's head.

"Well done Kari!" T.K shouted over his shoulder.

Kenya was stunned and could only mutter, "no way." as Kari reached for her own Ether-egg.

"Good going girl!" Reika and Freeda both cheered as Gatomon and Kari began to transform themselves.

When the light faded, Kari looked more mature just like T.K and her armour too had changed. Gatomon however, looked stronger just like Omegadramon. She had managed to transform to NeonSilphymon!

"At last!" Omegadramon bellowed, "Kari had achieved the Digi-Spirit of the wind! Well done, Hikari Kamiya!! You managed to utilize the ether-egg of the fighter of the wind, Kazemon!!!"

"I see what you mean, T.K and Omegadramon! I'm sorry to have doubted both of you!" Kari admitted.

"I know you could, Kari!" T.K replied with a broad grin at his face.

To be continued.

A/N:

Sorry 'bout that, I hope that I'm not confusing anyone with how the story is going. As you may see, I have updated these three chapters all at once. It's because, once again I'll be very busy since my college entrance exam is going to be this coming Sunday, October 05, 2003. But I do hope you'll continue reading my fiction and that I would hear from all of you real soon! Until then take care, minna-san!!

Next Chapter. Chapter 14: The Ultimate Combination. Good thing Kari has managed to call upon her own Ether-egg cuz' T.K's going to be in a tight fight! Kenya's got a lot of explaining to do, and he manages to transform himself, not with a Ether-egg of course, and this fight might not even go as well as T.K planned it cuz' Kenya might very well end up in danger!
