Chapter 3: Tai's Late and Sora remembers?
Tai was late. It was simple, his sister had woken him up too early and he had fallen asleep again in his cereal. Now he was late picking up Sora for college and she was gonna kill him. Driving fast in his new red Audi A2 (he got it for his birthday from his parents) but trying not to speed he turned a sharp corner into Sora's apartment's car park where she always waited for him. And there she was, waiting there patiently for him to arrive, wearing a short black mini skirt and a cream angora sweater that showed off every curve.
"Taichi Yagami, you're late again"! She scolded shouting slightly.
"Sorry babe but I fell asleep again, Kari woke me up too early," Tai apologised and explained sheepishly.
She took pity on him knowing how hard it was for him to wake up anyway.
"Ok I forgive you Chi but I'm going to drive if you're that tried, so you can get some sleep". She said thoughtfully.
"You're the best girlfriend ever Sor I love you," Tai said sleepily getting into the passenger seat and closing his eyes.
"I love you too Tai" she whispered, kissed him on the forehead and started the car.
"They're late again, this the 5th time this in two weeks, Tai has got to start getting up earlier," complained Tai's best friend Yamato Ishida as he stood in the collage car park waiting for Tai and Sora.
"Matt, stop getting so worked up, you know Tai is trying his best. He just can't manage being Union President, Soccer Captain and having a life at the same time." A pink haired girl in fashionably Levi jeans and a low cut baby pink halter neck soothed.
"Meems it's almost nine, hon." called Joe from the entrance, punctual as always.
"Ohhh I got a cooking class got to go, meet you at lunch", and with that Mimi quickly walked inside the college, with Joe holding her hand.
"Well, they're the same as always," thought Matt to himself.
"Yo Matt!! Hello! Earth to Yamato! Come in please!" a red haired teenager waved his hands across Matt vacant face.
"Huh? What? WHO DIED?" said Matt slowly coming out of his trance.
"Nobody died Matt, you were off on another planet and everybody knows that's my job". Joked Izzy half-serious half trying not to laugh at his joke.
"Nobody thinks of you that way Izzy, anyway don't you have class"? Asked Matt curious at Izzy's sudden arrival.
Izzy sighed and got out his laptop and started to tap at the keys.
"Class was cancelled, lecturer's sick or having a baby or had a mental breakdown or something". Sighed Izzy again distracted. "Tai and Sora not here yet"?
Now it was Matt's turn to sigh.
"No not yet, lucky were in the same ICT class Izz cause we'd have been soooo late and probably kicked out of class, again." He stressed "again" showing he was annoyed.
Suddenly a red Audi roared passed at high speed making both Izzy and Matt jump and shout in surprise. The driver of the red blur looked as if she was enjoying herself but the passenger was passed out in the seat with a permanent look of dread and fear etched on his face. It screeched to a halt in front of the 2 boys' with a lurch and an energetic auburn haired girl jumped out of the car like she was having the time of her life.
"Woooooooooo yeah! That was sooooo much fun! I wish I got to drive more often!" The girl shouted at no one in particular.
"I don't think Tai agrees with you their Sor," Commented Izzy, while Matt was having a fit of laughter at Tai's expense.
"Yeah, you laugh now, but I've loaned the car to Sora for the day and she's dropping both of you home today, as I have a meeting. HA!" Exclaimed Tai triumphantly looking slightly sick, but something then dawned on him. "Wait, don't we have class? Aren't we late"?
"No, class was cancelled." stated Matt simply.
"Ok", said Tai not caring why.
A black convertible drove round the corner with 3 male teenagers sitting one driving the other two were in the back, all wearing black and shades and looking pretty relaxed. They parked next to Tai's car and got out one buy one.
The first was about the same age as Joe, so slightly older and taller than the group standing by the car. He had quite long blond/brown hair and little piggy eyes of a charcoal black, he seemed to have all of the others money clenched in his fist and looked pleased about it. The other two weren't looking so happy about it.
The second was more their age but could have been a year younger like Izzy, but you couldn't tell as he was covered in head to toe in, well, stuff really. He had over indulged in fashion and male jewellery and male accessories and well about everything else you could think of. He took off his shades, which looked more expensive than the others did and revealed his eyes were a kind of soft brown with hints of ... erm ... purple? His hair was hidden under a black bandanna, poking out at various points on his forehead and was a range of different colours from red to blue to a bright green and back again.
The third was obviously in charge of this little gathering, as he got out the car the other two waited for him, like they didn't know really what to do without him. His blood red hair glistened in the sunlight as he shook his head slightly and lifted his shades to the top of his head. His eyes were the same colour as his hair and were aflame with a passionate anger that could never be quenched.
As they walked towards the 4 older DDs the guy with the red hair's anger intensified upon seeing Tai, if that was possible. As they walked passed them he shoved his shoulder purposely into Tai's chest.
"Hey watch were your going"! Shouted Tai angrily at the boy.
"Why should I, spiky, you gonna do something about it?" he replied in a calmly arrogant voice.
"Why I ought to..." Tai started but was interrupted by Matt who held him back.
"Don't waste your time with this guy Chi you got better stuff to do," Matt pointed out trying to calm him down.
"Awww, the little baby's gonna get his boyfriend to beat me up! OHHHH I'm scared," said the boy in a mock-frightened voice. The other 2 boys laughed out loud when they saw the impression.
A fire lit behind Tai's eyes as the 3 boys mocked him and Matt's cold blue eyes grew colder and harder.
"I've seen those looks somewhere before but when and where...?" thought Sora as she observed the taunting.
A vague memory surfaced slowly like a crocodile from a lake.
Flashback
3 blurred figures stood laughing having fun with a toy of some sort. 2 of the figures where male and one was female but there features were blurred and impossible to make out. The ground stated to shake violently and a dust cloud formed a little way off. Other figures ran past them shouting random words like "stampede" or "run! Wild horses". The 3 figures looked up at the cloud as it veered off to the right heading towards a large plane when a large red energy ball scared the already spooked animals towards them. The female flew up into the air on newly formed wings and the 2 males stood facing the herd. She said something unclear to them and their expressions hardened. Suddenly their eyes glowed red and blue and ice and fire shot from their hands baring the way of the wild horses. One circled them with a ring of ice so they could not move and the other went forwards to try to calm down the wayward beasts.
The female flew toward the source of the energy ball but could not find any evidence so flew back to help the others with the horses.
End of Flashback
"Whoa! What was that?" thought Sora,"That daydream came out of nowhere. Daydream? It seemed more real..."
While Sora was lost in thought the 3 boys had gone on taunting Tai and Matt, who had lost interest and started to talk to Izzy about the ICT homework.
Upon seeing that their taunting wasn't having any affect, the red haired boy motioned to the others to follow him inside the building and they left.
"Finally they're gone. They where beginning to get on my nerves", a relieved Izzy commented.
"What the hell was their problem? Jerks!" An angry Matt half shouted half seethed.
Tai, on the other hand, had noticed Sora had not said anything for a while and was concerned.
"Sora, are you ok?" Tai asked worried, waving his hand in front of her face cautiously. This seemed to bring her back to earth suddenly.
"HUH? What? WHO DIED?" Sora shouted alarmed. This caught the attention of Izzy and Matt, who started to laugh hysterically, and this soon got the other two started and they were all laughing together. The 3 boys at the back of their mind but certainly not forgotten.
This was going to be one strange semester.
