A/N: Thanks for all the great reviews! This chapter is very Short...but I
promised an update and here it is....but I am going to respond to all of your
reviews now ^_^
Luna wolf aka Matt4ever: It's continued :)
LadyK Na No Da: Uhm. . .Down girl lol. And yes I am evil thanks for pointing it out *grins*.
TaitoFan: It's updated!
Rikki-the-fox:It's continued ( just for you. . .er. . .and the rest of you ^_^
YamatoFanGirl: Maybe he is, and maybe I killed the gogglehead! You don't know do you?!?!?!??! AH HAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA *cough*
Lil miss meiling: How could I? Like this *types* and I'm gonna kill him too! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!!!!! Lol
Ex-FAHgeek: You will find out in due time how they knew ;) it's all a plan. And this gang doesn't care as shown in the last chapter. They're a KNOWN gang so why bother hiding the body? It's better to make an example of him no? that's what I was thinking. You're not paying attention. Kari and T.K. have no idea what's going on. As shown through the phone conversation. And if you have a better name then go for it because I'm less than creative with names.
Evil Princess of Inglewood: I mean that I got TONS of reviews for chapter 4 and I got just as many if not more for chapter five so I'm stoked! Hence the short, but rapid update ( as opposed to the usual....three months in between *sweatdrop*
Dragi: *blush* Thank you : ) This chapter is for you ^_^
I don't own this show so don't sue me, I've got nothing...

"-for dinner tonight you guys?" Yamato asked the pair with him.
"I don't know Yama, what did you buy?" T.K. asked.
"How about chicken stir fry wi- uf!" Yamato was suggesting as he ran into Kari who had stopped in front of him.
"Kari, what-"Yamato asked before following her, paled face, and wide eyes. Yamato gasped. "Oh God," Yamato whispered. The door to his apartment stood ajar, the door knocked slightly off its hinges. Yamato's mouth dropped open, as did T.K.'s.
"TAICHI!" Kari yelled lunging forward. T.K. regained his senses quickly and grabbed her around the waist. T.K. pulled Kari back against him holding her tightly as she squirmed to get away.
"Don't Kari, who knows what might be in there," T.K. whispered. Kari craned her neck around and glared.
"I don't care! Let me Go! Tai!" Kari screamed.
Yamato stepped toward the door quickly. "Stay here," he barked back over his shoulder. T.K. nodded, pale faced as he tightened his hold on his best friend.
"It will be okay Kari," he soothed.
Yamato swallowed slowly and pushed the door open quietly. Yamato looked around the apartment breathing very quietly. Bullet holes sprayed the walls of the living room. So far there was no sign of life, but there was no sign of death either. Yamato tried to call for Taichi, but found his throat was too tight to produce any sound.
A sudden abrupt sound caught Yamato's attention from across the room. Yamato whirled around and swallowed again as he crossed the room to the closet. With shaking hands, Yamato reached out a hand to finger the bullet holes in the door. Taking a short breath, Yamato reached out and turned the door knob. As he pulled the door open, he was met with darkness before he was aware of a long, metallic object rushing towards his face.
Yamato managed to duck out of the way enough so the object only caught the side of his face, eliciting a loud yelp from the blonde. Yamato staggered before regaining his senses and diving into the darkness, fully prepared to take this intruder down.
Yamato's body connected with that of the intruder's. The intruder cried out causing Yamato to stop his assault as he recognized the voice. Yamato pulled the long cord for the light to the closet. AS the light flickered on, the cowering, shaky form of Taichi was the first thing the blonde saw. "Taichi," Yamato whispered in relief, jumping off the other boy, "are you alright?"
"Yeah. . .I'll be alright I'm jus-My God! Yama your face!" Taichi exclaimed guiltily, "I'm so sorry, I thought you were-" Taichi was rambling and Yamato smiled at him.
"It's okay Taichi, you know fully well that I've had worse," Yamato's smile faded, "what happened?"
"Well," Taichi began, "I was sitting, watching T.V. when I decided I wanted a shower. I got up, turned on the water and got in. AS I was relaxing, I heard the door open and shut. I thought it was too soon for you to be back so I panicked and shut off the water. I redressed quickly and listened at the door. At first I could hear only footsteps, and dove back into the tub. I cowered there just praying that I would get out of there alive.
That's when I heard gunfire and so I just covered my head and lay there in the tub in a fetal position. It felt like hours passed when finally the firing stopped. I heard low talking and loud laughter. Two walked by the door and I heard one of them say 'Well looks like we took care of that nuisance.' To which the other replied, 'yeah Slade will be pleased, I'm just glad we didn't have to do anything with the body.'
I stayed in the tub until I was certain they had left. I then fled to the closet out here and stayed there in hiding until you found me. . .I'm sorry about your head Yama, but since you didn't call for me I thought they had returned and I was scared they wanted to finish the job." Taichi ended and swallowed.
Yamato smiled and stood pulling Taichi with him. "it's alright buddy. I'll just tag you later."
Yamato and Taichi walked from the apartment outside. "TAICHI!" Kari cried jumping onto her brother. She began to sob. Taichi tightened the hold on his sister carefully running his hand through her hair and murmuring softly to her.
T.K. stood behind Kari rubbing her back before he looked closer at Yamato. "Oni-chan, what the hell happened to your face?"
"THAT would be my fault Takeru," Taichi explained looking sheepish, "I was attacked and-"he sighed, "it's a long story."
T.K. nodded and looked at Kari who nodded also. "I think it's time you clue us in." T.K. said.
"I agree, but I don't think we should be out in the open," Yamato replied, "come on." Yamato started towards the door with the other three in tow.
