Me "Alright, so for the last and first chapter I managed to get two flames. Interesting. First of all, for the person that flamed me about the Takari pairing, I warned you about as much as I could!! If you don't like it, then don't read it! That's pretty simple!"

Davis "Hehehehe, he/she wanted a Daikari pairing. I can't agree with him more!"

Me "Davis. That was a bad decision you decided to make." * fist grips so tightly, knuckles become white *

Davis "Eeps!" * runs off *

Me "Come back here you scrawny little." * runs after Davis *

Cody "Ken's sick today so I'm filling in!" * sweatdrops * "Is it always like this around here?" * readers nod * "Oh jeez. Oh well, Azn Angel Hikari does not own any part of digimon."

Me * halts chasing for a minute * "Hey Cody, you forgot the 'although she wishes she did' part!" * continues to chase *

Cody "Oh yeah! Oh well, you already know." * throws a script in the air and walks away *

Me * while sitting on Davis about to punch his head * "Yeah, so here is the next chapter in TK's POV!"

Chapter 8: Thursday-Time to Find Some Answers

~*~

I started running for my room, knowing Ken had brought his laptop with him on the trip.

"I think I'll stay here with Kari in case she wakes up!" Matt yelled after me.

Mimi must have stayed with Matt, because once I got to my room, Tai and Sora were only a few minutes behind me.

I turned on the computer praying Izzy was still online and using the chat system.

PiNEaPPlE_WiZ: Hey Ken!

Success I thought!

DaRk_EmpOrER: Hey! It's TK not Ken! I'm using his computer. Izzy I need some information from you, it's an emergency!

PiNEaPPlE_WiZ: Sure TK. What's up?! What's wrong?

DaRk_EmpOrER: It's Kari! One minute she was running away from me and then the next she was on the deck with her head in her arms.

PiNEaPPlE_WiZ: Okay. So what's the problem? That doesn't seem too abnormal to me.

DaRk_EmpOrER: She's not saying anything. We lifted her head up, and, it's like she's somewhere else! There's no shine in her eyes or anything!

PiNEaPPlE_WiZ: Strange. It must have something to do with the Dark Ocean. I can't find any other reasoning to it!

DaRk_EmpOrER: I need to know if you can track Kari's signal in the Dark Ocean? PiNEaPPlE_WiZ: I don't know TK. It would be hard to do. Ever since Black Wargreymon sealed up the links to the Dark Ocean, I've never gotten any area maps of that region.

DaRk_EmpOrER: Common Izzy! There has to be SOMETHING you can do!

PiNEaPPlE_WiZ: Calm down TK! I'm going to check in with Gennai. Maybe he can give me some more information on the Dark Ocean. All the information I have so far, is just that someone's tampering with the links to it.

DaRk_EmpOrER: Alright. I don't suppose I can get to the Dark Ocean by means of a computer right?

PiNEaPPlE_WiZ: TK. You know we can't do that. It's not any different from when we went there last. It could possibly be even worse now that the links to the Dark Ocean are sealed.

PiNEaPPlE_WiZ: Gennai told me there's nothing he knows of so far. He's going to do some more investigating. I don't know how we can get Kari out of this one TK. We can't even get in to the Dark Ocean, let alone rescue her.

DaRk_EmpOrER: I need to find SOMEWAY! There HAS to be someway. Listen, do me a favor and keep on researching about it. If you find anything, ANYTHING, e-mail me on the d-terminal! I'm going to try and find some ideas with the rest of the gang.

PiNEaPPlE_WiZ: Alright. But TK, promise me one thing.

DaRk_EmpOrER: What is it?

PiNEaPPlE_WiZ: Whatever you do, you have to be careful. The Dark Ocean is not a thing to be taken too lightly.

DaRk_EmpOrER: Yeah I know. I'll talk to you later.

PiNEaPPlE_WiZ: Bye!

I signed off, and faced Tai and Sora. They seemed to know that I didn't find out anything useful. Just as I was about to open the door, Mimi came rushing in.

"TK! You have to come and see this!!" Mimi said just before she ran back outside and toward where Kari was.

I dashed in the hallway after Mimi, and came to the clearing again. Matt was hunched over looking at Kari. Not much looked different.

"What's the problem?" I asked.

"Shh! Come here and listen." Matt said.

I walked over and bent down near Matt. Everyone was still and silent as I finally heard what was the matter.

Kari was talking, well more like muttering. There was one problem though. She kept on muttering the same sort of words over and over again. 'It's all my fault. He'll probably never speak to me again,' Was the sort of stuff she was saying. Sora gasped as I turned my head to look at her.

"What is it?" Tai asked.

Sora had a hand clamped over her mouth, "T-That's what happened to me! Matt as well! We were back in the digital world for the first time, when we were both sucked in to depression! Kari needs our help. She needs to be brought back to this world."

"I've tried Sora. It doesn't work. That's the problem. It seems there's something more then just what we had, that's come over her." Matt replied.

"Matt, Sora, Mimi we should go look for Ken, make sure he's alright too," Tai suggested, "TK, you should stay here with Kari."

I just nodded, as the rest of the gang went off in search of Ken.

I stared at Kari for awhile not being able to take it all in. Why? Why was the only question I could ask. Why did it have to happen to her? She was kind, caring, funny; heck she was like the sum of everything. What happened, and where was she?! I kept on thinking of what was happening to her at that moment. Was she safe or in danger?

"Kari. I need you here. It's not your fault it's mine. Wake up please!" I said on the verge of tears, "K-Kari wake up! PLEASE!!" I shook as I took her shoulders and shook them gently, while little tears escaped my eyes. Kari of course said nothing, I wasn't really expecting her to, but hey it's good to try right?

"HIKARI!" I said as I slammed my fist down on the deck sobbing.

I continued to cry there for who knows how long until I felt some sort of warmth touching my skin.

"TK." I heard a small voice say.

I looked up to find white and pink light shining above Kari's head, as a figure of her stood there.

"TK! Help me please!" The figure of Kari asked me.

"What the? I thought the portal to the Dark Ocean was sealed." I said out loud.

I don't really know why I did it, I guess it must have been on impulse, as I rose to meet the white and pink light. Hey if it worked one time, it might work another right? I jumped towards the light and vanished from the boat.

END OF CHAPTER 8

~*~

Me "Aww TK's going to rescue Kari. Ain't it purdy? Lol! :P A lot of you guys actually thought TK was going to go through the digiport in the computer to go to the Dark Ocean! Common, at least give me some credit! This was one of my favourite shows after all! I know the dark ocean was sealed by Black Wargreymon, so how did TK manage to get there? You'll have to find out in later chapters! ;) Please remember to R+R! Oh yeah and if you're wondering where Davis went. Well let's just say he won't be walking properly for awhile."
