Ebacusta: Welcome back. I just wanted to let you know that the reason, it took me a bit longer than three weeks to update this was because I was updating one of my other fics.
Kari: We have a guest appearance by…
Spirit of Virtue: [walks in] Um…hi…Send for help…I've been kidnapped from my house by this mad women.
Ebacusta: Nonsense. We decided to pick a random reviewer to help with our customary babble. Isn't that right guys? [she looks at the DigiDestined]
DigiDestined: [all mumbling] Who is this "we" she's talking about? That was just her decision.
Ebacusta: Never mind them.
Spirit of Virtue: [looks unconvinced and creeped out. Slowly] Right…
Ebacusta: Anyway, all you have to do is read from this piece of paper and then you're done. [she hands Spirit of Virtue a piece of paper]
Spirit of Virtue: [looks at it] Okay, um, From the desk of ebacusta. I heart…
Ebacusta: [interrupts, blushing] You don't have to read that part. Start here. she points somewhere on the paper, rips off the top of the paper and eats it, before laughing nervously
Spirit of Virtue: stares at her for a second Um, right, ebacusta would like to thank:
Emma- Thank you for the compliment. Don't worry about my family affairs, they're fine. Thanks though. It was mainly meeting my new cousin and stuff, he's really cute. And oh, by the way, you don't have to worry. Davis is not the killer. I agree, Davis isn't a bad guy, and even though he hearts Kari, he would never betray TK or any of his other friends. This chapter will prove innocence.
Fox of Light- Here let me help you. [ebacusta boots Fox of Light's computer out the window (Spirit of Virtue pauses for a minute to stare at ebacusta before continuing)] Computers these days. And, I believe that if you write you feel, it makes your story more believable and realistic, because then the feelings conveyed that were felt at the time that the chapter was written makes them more realistic and thus the reader can relate. This tends to draw people into a story, if they can relate to what the character is feeling as well.
And just for the record. This isn't three months. smiles and giggles
Silent Ninja- Absolutely. If TK would just put his pride on the line for a minute and went up and asked Kari out, they would have gotten married and had two beautiful children. But you know, one of my reviewers came up with a theory that I like more. Here it is (Creator: Rain-witch-85):
"Kari and TK are married but Kari went to Tai's house and she was late leaving and so she just went with Tai and she met TK and the others there, but since he was taking a picture he wasn't in it standing next to her."
Isn't that a much better theory? And what is doujinshis?
Draechaeli- That is a mystery that remains to be solved (for you people at least). [ebacusta laughs manically. Mimi punches her into the ground.
Mimi: Shut up. (Spirit of Virtue recovers from this rather quickly and goes on)]
Mica the Cat Kid- Thank you, and actually, yes he will. In fact you'll see it soon.
Angewomanandme- Thank you. Was this soon enough after the 3 weeks?
Sweetkitty9691- Thank you. Ok course there's more, I'm not finished yet.
DragonTidalWaves- Here let me help. [ebacusta grabs a mallet and bashes Blaze into the ground] Was that hard enough? Or does he need to be hit harder? smiles I must torture my readers, how else will I turn them into my maniacal slaves? [laughs manically. Mimi smacks her into a building.
Mimi: I said shut up.
Ebacusta: You'll be the first to experience the wrath of my zombies.
Mimi: (throws a desk on ebacusta) Do I have to repeat myself?
Ebacusta: (growls)]
Spirit of Virtue- You are welcome, and you'll have to wait a bit longer to find out. And you're other side took over. Yes, I can, and I did. [smiles]
GatomonandKariFan- Thank you.
Alex- If I did that, I'd never be able to manipulate you and others into becoming my slaves. Obviously. [Mimi slams her in the street and a car runs over her.
Ebacusta: That hurt.
Mimi: It was suppose to.]
Thank you. Let's just hope that none of this ever happens to you family. [smiles]
Miaow227- Well, you'll hate the end of this chapter too, and the ends of the others because boy do I have cliffhangers for you. And you're welcome. Thank you for reviewing in the first place.
Gennai's Apprentice- Thank you. Well, that's the point. In chapter 6, Kari was rather confused and disoriented. And the fact that she knows not where she is adds to the fact that she didn't try to stop them from forcing her into servant hood. And really it was Mizuki who convinced his mom to let her stay. But you know, you way works too. Thank you for your comments.
Angelz- I try. Ask Spirit of Virtue. [Spirit of Virtue looks up with confused eyes, when suddenly ebacusta falls from the sky and forces headphones onto his head. His eyes widen before they turn into swirls.]
Ebacusta: Barney. Gets them every time.
Thank you.
Saturnangel- Really? Man, I can't believe I missed it. My friend said it was the best ever as well.
RogueSummersLover- I hope this was soon enough. What's TTYI?
…- Very observant, but hush hush okay?
Lynn-Minmay- Thank you. I hope you'll like this chapter as much as you liked the last. Well, here's your chance too. smiles
Ebacusta: That'll do Spirit. Next we'll call…EMMA!
Emma: [screams in terror and attempts to escape.]
Ebacusta: [puts her arm around her shoulder and brings her back] You're going to do the disclaimer. Read it off of this. hands her a piece of paper
Emma: Ebacusta does not own digimon…or your souls…yet…But she does own Tina, Kei, Satsuki, and those guys.
Ebacusta: Thank you, and now we'll call…Gennai's Apprentice! he comes up reluctantly Now you have to read this lovely announcement from this [she hands him a napkin]
Gennai's Apprentice: [mumbles] Oh, so I get the cheap stuff.
Ebacusta: Shut up and read. [Mimi punches her into the ground again]
Mimi: Treat your guests with more respect! [she turns to him] Sorry about that. Please read it.
Gennai's Apprentice: I am proud to announce that the ultimate Takari proof has been found and resides on my website. My homepage can be found by looking at my profile.
Ebacusta: [climbs out of the ground] Thank you. And now…Lynn-Minmay!
Lynn-Minmay: [She climbs the stairs.] What horrible feat do I have to do?
Ebacusta: Well, not that you mention it…
TK: Nothing bad. You're just going to help me. You know what I always say…
Lynn-Minmay and TK: FIC TIME!
All the other Reviewers: [breathe signs of relief]
Ebacusta: Don't worry, you'll be next!
All the other Reviewers: [gasp in horror]

Chapter 7
Mom and Dad, Together Again…As a Family
--------------------------------------------------
"Hmmm…" Kari thought as she walked through the streets. "He's here. And getting nearer." She crossed the street. "He's here. Somewhere."
She began to run. "I can feel his presence getting closer." She ran faster.
"Closer…closer…closer…cl-"
WHAM!
She had run into someone. "Oh, I'm so sorry. I wasn't paying attention." She looked up. The person was lying on the ground not moving.
"Uh, are you okay?" Kari asked. She started to panic when she received no answer. "Please answer me. Do you need medical attention?" She crawled over to the person. She looked. She looked closer.
"TK!"
--------------------------------------------------------
He looked at her. She saw his face was tear-stained and his eyes held tears in them. He looked at her fearfully.
"TK, what's wrong?"
"Hikari," he breathed. And then suddenly, by impulse, he pushed her off him and run off through the trees.
Kari yelled after him, "TK, what's wrong?" He didn't answer and disappeared in the trees. Kari's own eyes teared up. "TK, am I really that despicable to you?"
"Excuse me miss, are you okay?" a man asked. Kari looked at him. She hadn't noticed that a small crowd had gathered around her. Her vision blurred as she looked at their faces. What did they care? Except for looking good in the face of others or getting a thanks in return for their help.
-
Everything's so blurry
and everyone's so fake
and everybody's empty
and everything is so messed up
pre-occupied without you
I cannot live at all
My whole world surrounds you
I stumble then I crawl
-
"What? What did I do wrong?" she asked as the tears started to fall down her face.
"Oh…Oh no, what's wrong?" the man asked. He reached down for Kari, but she stood up and shoved her way through the ground, she took off running too.
-
You could be my someone
you could be my scene
you know that I'll protect you
from all of the obscene
I wonder what you're doing
imagine where you are
there's oceans in between us
but that's not very far
-
"I was hopeful, that he's made a mistake, but…but, I guess not," she thought. She would run, and she would run until she could run no longer, and then she'd rest. And then she'd run some more. She couldn't stand it any longer.
-
Can you take it all away
can you take it all away
well ya shoved it in my face
this pain you gave to me
Can you take it all away
can you take it all away
well ya shoved it my face
-
She couldn't take it. She couldn't take it anymore. She ran into someone. It was Tina.
"Mom, what's wrong?" she asked.
Kari looked at her with contempt in her eyes and yelled spitefully, "What's the point huh? What's the point of bringing me here so I can not die in the future, if we won't be together anyway?"
Tina looked at her with confusion written across her face, "But mom…"
Kari interrupted, "There is no family left. You have no family, and I have no friends!" Tina looked crestfallen, and it was clear that Kari had touched a wound deep down that she guarded with a cold facade. She didn't care. She was tired of these people feeding her these lies. Kari ran off before she could see the single tear that Tina had shed, before she scrubbed it away harshly.
-
Everyone is changing
there's no one left that's real
to make up your own ending
and let me know just how you feel
cause I am lost without you
I cannot live at all
my whole world surrounds you
I stumble then I crawl
-
Kari kept running. "He's different. He's changed. He's not the same person I thought he was. He isn't the same person her used to be!" Kari said.
Her mind faded back to her home. She was starting to tire as she had been sprinting her hardest for about 10 minutes. She looked at the people who looked at her as she passed.
"Nobody is the same," she thought bitterly. "I am alone, and I always will be. Tai… Tai only looked after me because he felt an obligation to, but deep down inside, I'm a nuisance just like any other little sister is."
She thought about what she had said to Tina. "Well," she said aloud. "It's not like TK and I are going to get together, so, when she's suppose to be born, she won't be, and then she'll cease to exist. She doesn't have a family. Not anymore."
-
You could be my someone
you could be my scene
you know that I will save you
from all of the unclean
I wonder what you're doing
I wonder where you are
There's oceans in between us
but that's not very far
-
TK leaned against the alley wall. The tears were cascading down his cheeks. "What? What is my problem? Why do I push her away, when I want her so much?" He lowered his head as he bit his lip hard. It began to bleed and he could taste it saltiness on his tongue.
"Please Kari, why don't you ever just hit me and be done with it?" he asked. "I love you so much it hurts, but why? Why won't you ever give me the pain that I deserve so much?"
-
Can you take it all away
can you take it all away
well ya shoved it in my face
this pain you gave to me
Can you take it all away
can you take it all away
well ya shoved it my face
-
Kari was approaching the other side of the park. She could barely see the street through her tears. She could see the oncoming traffic, but she could also see a huge hole where her heart should be. A gaping hole in her chest, as it had been wretched out of her, by someone she thought loved her back.
She ran into the street. Horns honked, and cars skidded to a stop. One car actually hit her and sent her flying a few feet onto the pavement. Kari lay motionless sobbing for a few moments, while the owner of the car, a woman, got out, and came to see if she was all right. She was apologizing furiously.
"I'm so sorry… you just ran right in front of me, and I didn't see you at first and- hey, are you all right?" she asked as she saw the tears that were wetting the ground. "Do you need medical attention?"
"No," Kari said quietly. She pushed off the ground and ran off again. She couldn't have it could she? This is what she got when she let herself free.
"Do you see why I hold you back?" she yelled at herself inwardly. "Do you see why I never let you voice your opinions? Look what happens?" She ran into an alleyway and then upon bursting onto the sidewalk, she ran towards the street again, and almost ran in front of a truck when someone grabbed her arm and pulled her back.
"Are you crazy?" the voice, a male, asked. "You could have killed yourself."
"I…don't….care," Kari sobbed. "It would…be…better that way." She collapsed on the ground in a heap of tears, silently wishing that god would strike her down. The boy crouched beside her.
"Are you okay?" he asked.
"Do you want to talk about it?" he asked. She looked up and was taken aback. He looked just like Davis.
"Davis?" she asked.
He laughed, "No, Davis is my dad." It was then that Kari noticed the boy's eyes were green instead of brown. "Hi, I'm Jake. Did you know dad?"
-
Nobody told me what you thought
nobody told me what to say
everyone showed you where to turn
told you when to runaway
nobody told you where to hide
nobody told you what to say
everyone showed you where to turn
showed you when to runaway
-
"He was a friend of mine when he was younger," she said.
"For real?" the boy asked. "You look about my age."
"Where's your father?" Kari asked.
Jake faltered for a minute, as if deciding if he wanted to disclose the information to a stranger, who claimed to know his dad. He spoke after a minute, "Dead. He was murdered a few years back."
Kari couldn't believe her ears. Davis was killed too? She grabbed his shoulders. "Did Tai and Sora die too?"
He nodded sadly, "They were protecting their niece and nephew, Tina and Kei. Poor girl. She really took the loss of her parents, and her aunt and uncle hard. She stopped eating for a while."
Kari's eyes widened. She thought back to what she'd said to her. "Oh no."
-
Can you take it all away
can you take it all away
well ya shoved it in my face
this pain you gave to me
Can you take it all away
can you take it all away
well ya shoved it my face
This pain you gave to me
-
"What's wrong?" Jake asked.
"Who else? Who else died?" Kari asked. "Concerning Tina and Kei."
Jake looked at her for a minute and then after deciding that she looked trustworthy began to speak, "Matt, Joe, Yolei, Ken, Izzy, Mimi, and Cody. Even dad's far-away friend, Willis died. They all took Tina and Kei in after the death of Tai, Sora, and her parents."
"Jake!" He turned as did Kari. There was a girl with reddish-brown hair, and beside her stood a boy with brown hair. "We're ready!" They approached and saw Kari on the ground.
"Who are you talking to?" the girl asked.
-
You take it all
You take it all away...
This pain you gave to me
You take it all away
This pain you gave to me
Take it all away
This pain you gave to me
-
"Um, what's your name?" Jake asked.
"Kari," Kari responded.
"Oh, well, Kari, this is Rachel and Martin," Jake said.
"Hi," Kari asked.
"Kari's interested in Tina and Kei. The death of their parents and the others who took them in," Jake told his friends.
"Oh," Rachel said. "Well, our parents died too."
"Who were your parents?" Kari interrupted.
"Mimi and Izzy," Martin spoke.
"Yeah," Rachel agreed. "Tina, took a hard fall when her parents died, but when her aunt and uncle died, she fell into the deepest state of depression I'd ever seen. Between the two, she took it the hardest by far."
"Yeah," Martin agreed.
"She felt responsible for the death of everyone after that, and when our parents died, she just stopped," Rachel said.
"What do you mean?" Kari asked.
"Her heart stopped," Martin said. "She had to be rushed to the hospital."
"Her heart stopped?" Kari asked.
Jake nodded, "The fall of her parents caused her to really stop paying attention to those around her. One day, she was paying attention to where she was going, and she ran into a teacher holding a pair of scissors. The wound is very close to her heart, and because of that, she had a weak heart from then on."
"Yeah, and the worst part about it was, that Kei thought he'd lost his sister too, and attempted to commit suicide," Martin said.
"Those two," Rachel said . "If I had one wish, I would wish for the rebirth of their parents."
"Me too," Jake agreed.
"Me too," Martin said nodding.
"Why not the rebirth of your own parents?" Kari asked.
"Because," Rachel said. "If you had seen her, when their parents died, it was like, Tina's soul died on that day. Tina was a very playful girl growing up. She always had this sparkle in her eye, a mischievous gleam. But when she found her mom dead in the kitchen, when she came home from school one day…"
"It was sad," Martin said.
"It was," Jake agreed. "The three of us were going to her house, to hang out, and when we got there, there was blood on the couch."
"But it was the seat of the couch, so we thought her mom's cycle had started and that she had run out of cleaning fluid and gone to go get some to remove the stain," Rachel added when Jake failed for words.
"Yeah. And we all went into the kitchen, and there she was. Her mother, tears running down her face, a knife in her midsection, and blood pouring from her chest," Martin said.
"And just standing there watching the smile slid off Tina's face, the sparkle fade from her eyes, and the blood drain from her face, was the worst thing in the world," Rachel said.
"Yeah," Jake said sadly. "Tina, got on her knees, crying, begging for her mother to stop playing around. She shook her mother until she was covered in blood. Her mom was barely alive, and was trying to tell Tina something, but she couldn't make a sound, and she wrote something with her blood on the floor."
"What did she write?" Kari asked.
"I love you," Martin said. "And then her eyes closed, and Tina froze. She stopped moving, her eyes didn't blink. In fact, I even think she stopped breathing. She did move again until Jake snapped her out of her trance. Rachel had called already gone and called an ambulance, but when they came, Tina, clawed at her mother, as they took her away."
Rachel continued, "She screamed profanities hoping her mother would get up to punish her. She hit things, threw things to the floor, hoping her mother would get up and smack her for misbehaving."
"But, she didn't," Jake said. "Her mother didn't move, and that was the day the Tina stopped living. She didn't smile, she didn't laugh. She was just there. For days and days, when she came to stay at my dad's place, I would hear her cry herself to sleep. She became sick, since she wouldn't eat. She became excessively thin. And then eventually, all emotion ceased from her face."
"Nothing. She ceased to care anymore. It just didn't matter. She had no more reason for living," Rachel said. "No smile, no tears, no hurt, no hate, nothing. It was like she wasn't human anymore." Kari stood up slowly. She saw a boy walked out of an alley nearby, and then he stopped, looking down, and then he bent to pick something up.
- - - -
TK: 2024
- - - -
TK left his alleyway. What was the point? He saw something on the sidewalk. A pocket knife. He bent down and pulled out the sharpest one he could find, and lowered it to his wrist.
- - - -
Kari: 2024
- - - -
Kari looked at the boy and then ran forward. "TK don't!" she yelled as she threw herself into him. The pocket knife went flying from his hand, cutting his wrist a little, and he and Kari fell hard onto the ground.
"Why? Why did you do that Kari? Why?" TK yelled. "Let me die in peace. I'm already dead here anyway, this world won't miss another mistake!" Jake, Rachel, and Martin all ran up and watched this.
"TK please," Kari said.
"All I've done is cause you pain! Why do you care?" he yelled at her spitefully.
"Because I love you!" Kari yelled back at him. And then everything was still as the public stopped to watch the scene. Kari had stopped talking amazed at what she'd just said. TK had stopped struggling, his tear stained face staring at hers. Jake, Rachel, and Martin stared.
Kari spoke again, her voice faltering, "You don't know, what it was like, when you told me no that night. I felt that I could have died. This pain in my heart doesn't go away. You mean the world to me, even if you don't love me in return, I just wanted to go on as your best friend, but… but the way you pushed me away in the park. It was clear to me that you don't want me around. And if that's what will make you happy, then fine. But please, don't deny me the pleasure of watching you from a distance. No matter what you say to me, you are still my best friend and you always will be." TK stared at her, unable to find words to express his feelings.
"I'll go now," Kari said pushing herself up.
TK would not let this chance get away from him. He grabbed her wrist as she went to stand, making her fall back on top of him, and then before she could protest, he put his lips on hers and felt the soft lips he had felt a few weeks ago. He could feel her heartbeat beating in sync with hers. And slowly she pulled away, searching his face for an explanation for what he had done.
"Kari, I'm sorry," TK said. "I made a mistake. I meant to say yes, I really did. But when I heard the words, I had been so afraid to ask come out of your mouth, my mind went blank. I said the first thing that came to my head and you ran too quickly to let me correct myself."
"You could have run after me," Kari said.
"If there is one thing I have learned from my brother," TK said. "It's that if you break a girl's heart on accident; give her some time before you go apologize. But I didn't get that chance. I saw you in the park the next morning really early. And we talked, and I realized that was you, and that maybe I still had a chance, but you had disappeared by the time school had started.
"And I realized that I had lost my chance, but then I felt this incredibly strong bond linking us together, and then I got sick, and I realized that it must have been because you got sick, where ever you were. But no matter how hard I looked, you were no where to be found. I grew depressed.
"But then I started seeing you places, and I wondered if that was really you trying to get to me. I wanted to apologize, but I didn't know how, and I didn't know if you'd hear me. And then you started begging for my help. Nightmares tortured me and forced me awake in the dark of night. Mimi came back to Japan for her visit. But your cries for help got worse, and one night, you wrote something on my wall, and I followed you and was brought here. And this is my chance that I have waited so long for."
Kari was at a lost for words. She stood slowly, and TK stood as well watching her face carefully, which was scrunched up a little as Kari thought hard about the subject, and then, a large smile spread across her face.
"I'm just glad your back," Kari said, jumping on him, and throwing her arms around his neck.
"I'm glad you're back, Hika-chan," TK said, rubbing his cheek on hers, affectionately. The crowd around them clapped, and then dispersed slowly as people went back to their daily activities. Jake, Martin, and Rachel hung around.
"There's something familiar about you," Jake said to TK. "Like I know you." All of them paused and appeared to be in deep thought, when Jake snapped his fingers.
"I know who you are!" he exclaimed. "You're those people from the modeling agency!"
"What?" Kari asked.
"Oh yeah!" Rachel and Martin exclaimed. Suddenly, Rachel's cell rang. She answered it, and after a minute of silence, she hung up. "Jake, Martin, come on, we have to go. Grandma's waiting. And by the way, here's my cell." She grabbed Kari's out of her pocket and added her number to Kari's directory. After her Martin, and then Jake took it, adding their numbers to her directory, and then they handed it back. With a wave the three ran off.
"Who were those kids?" TK asked.
"Jake, Rachel, and Martin," Kari told him. "Jake, is Davis's kid, and Rachel & Martin are Izzy and Mimi's kids. But unfortunately, they're all dead."
"What? Dead?" TK asked.
"Yes," Kari said. And on the way home, she told him everything Jake had told her. When she entered Mizuki's house, she took TK up the stairs to Mizuki's room and knocked on the door.
"Come in," Mizuki said.
Kari pushed open the door and entered with TK. "Um, excuse me sir," she said. He was sitting at his desk.
"Yes?"
"Well, you see, I found this poor, homeless kid on the street, and he and I quickly became friends, and I was wondering if you had space for one more hard-working servant?" Kari said.
Mizuki stared at her for a second. Kari began to beg, "Please, sir. Please."
"I'll have to talk to mom," Mizuki said, "but I'll see."
"Thank you, thank you," Kari said. Mizuki got up and passed by TK and Kari as he left his room. Kari and TK followed and Kari went down to her room ignoring the stares of the maids. Once in her room, TK spoke, "What was that about? What is this place?"
"This is where I work," Kari said. "I'm not quite sure how it happened; I was unconscious at the time. But, I realized before I even tried to leave that I had no where else to go. I saw the calendar over there." She pointed to the calendar beside her desk.
"Oh," TK said.
"As long as you're here, you're going to need a place to stay," Kari said. "And if you stay here, then we'll be close together, if suddenly something happens to take us home."
"I see," he said. There was a knock and Mizuki entered.
"Mom says he can stay and clean out the pool," he said. "The pool guy hasn't been showing up anyway."
"Thank you," Kari said.
"Let me show you to your room," Mizuki said, and with a wave TK left with him.
- - - -
2024: Kari
- - - -
The next day, upon arriving back at home, after a half day at school, Kari went up to her room and changed. She went and knocked on TK's door. There was no answer she knocked again.
"Yes?" asked a voice from beside her. She yelped and jumped.
"TK! You scared me!" she said clutching the area where her heart was beating wildly.
"Sorry," he said, smiling. "Why were you knocking on my door?"
"Well, Mizuki gave me the afternoon off today, so I thought we could do something together," Kari said.
"Okay," TK said. He and Kari left the house. TK had most afternoons off since he only had to clean the pool once every 3 days. They walked down the street, holding hands, and walking close to each other. Neither said anything, just walked silently, enjoying each other's company, happy with just the mere presence of the other.
They reached a bookstore, and decided to go in and catch up on their favorite manga. Once inside, TK freaked.
"Awesome!" he practically yelled. "They have the whole D.N. Angel series!"
"Who cares about D.N. Angel? They have both Pretear and Fruits Basket, in complete sets!" Kari countered in the same manner. They sat down with a stack of their favorite manga to read, when there came a voice.
"Kari?" it asked. Kari looked up and saw Tina standing there.
"Oh hey, Tina. I'm really sorry about yesterday. I lost my cool, and I didn't mean too," Kari said.
"It's okay," Tina said, some what quietly as if scared that Kari would lose her temper again. "Um, I was wondering…" she trailed off. Kei wondered around the corner.
Kari backed over to where TK was, and kicked him into a standing position as she said, "I have a someone, I'd like you to meet..." She stepped aside. TK was still reading his manga, but Tina and Kei's face lit up.
"DAD!" they yelled in unison. TK lowered the book instantly.
"Dad? Who's dad?" he asked as they jumped on him.
Tina grabbed Kari and pulled her into the hug. And when she pulled away, for the first time, Kari noticed a big smile and tears running down her face.
"Finally, I have a family, again."
--------------------------------
Hi. I hope you liked it. Now, let's see, I do believe I have a message for all readers:
"REVIEW! REVIEW! REVIEW!" Stayed up until 1 a.m. writing this and risked my neck since my chores aren't done and I'm dead tired. And chores must be finished before I can go to sleep.
And oh yeah the song in this chapter was Blurry by Puddle of Mudd. I don't own it either.
