Hey guys! I'm really sorry bout how long this has taken, honestly I am! I've just been so...distracted...and...uninspired...and...blocked, UGH! I hate it. So yeah, I'm deffinately up for any ideas and of course I'll credit those who I get them from. Heh. I've just got this major block goin on for some freak reason. Anyway, that'll explain why this chapter is also pretty short. Yeah. Anywho, the song at the end of this is called "If I could catch a rainbow" Or as my choir class called it- "The rainbow song". Haha. It's a really pretty song...and I just felt like adding it in, since it isa rather hopefilled song. If you wanna have the rest of the lyrics also, I'll add them in somewhere along the line. Heh. Anyways. Reviews are always helpfull and inspiring. SO review on! -Ichigo
I do not own digimon, no matter how much I would like to and will someday own the mangas of Digimon..sadly I don't. BUT I HAVE A GATOMON PLUSHIE!
"Here we are." Kari said with a small sigh. They'd wandered about an hour away from camp. There was a small clearing just past where Kari had stopped at and a little beyond that clearing was a lake with little digital fish floating and swimming along, totally oblivious to the horrors going on in the Light and Hope's mind.
"Ah…" TK acknowledged. He looked about the area; there was nothing to out of place. A few plants looked stepped on or disturbed but that could very well have happened over night. There was no sign of Gatomon or Patamon or anything.
"yeah…" Kari walked over to some random tree and leaned against it. "This is the last place I saw her…she told me to run and then I came looking for you. God, I'm such a coward." She grumbled and looked down at the ground, finding her feet suddenly interesting.
"You're not a coward, Kari." TK walked over to her and put his hands on her shoulders. "You're smart. Not a coward. You followed her directions and went looking for help. There was nothing else for you to do Kari, Angemon is a good foe, but lets not kid ourselves, we're just kids." TK tucked Kari's hair behind her ear. "We're just kids, Kari. Just teenagers. There's no way you or I would have been able to stand up to him."
"How do you know that?" Kari snapped "What if there was something I could have done?" She crossed her arms around her stomach and hugged herself. "What if I could have stopped him, all I needed to do was remind him that it was me, Kari. What if he just needed to be reminded that he had friends here…what if-"
TK sighed and pulled off his hat, running a hand though his hair and then putting it back on. "Kari, enough with the 'what if's. If you could have done it, it would have happened. The fact is that we can't go back and change that. You can't go back into the past and redo things. Believe me, if I could I would." He turned away from Kari for a moment and then gave her a longways-side glance. "Let's get going…knowing most evil Digimon, there's always a trail of destruction behind them. Plus Gatomon's probably made sure it'll be easy for us to find her."
Kari nodded and silently began to lead the direction in where she thought they might have gone to. TK watched her for a moment, saddened to see her in the depressed state she was and then followed after her.
"If I could catch a rainbow…before it fades away…" TK began to sing softly "I'd hold it's endless beauty, and share it every day…" Kari looked back at him for a moment and then smiled before returning her attention ahead of her and holding her hands behind her back. "If I could build a mountain or swim the ocean blue…if I could cross the desert, I'd do them all for you." TK blushed, letting the last note linger for a moment before falling silent. He was looking for a sign that Kari hadn't completely lost the will to smile, and when she looked back at him and the ends of her lips twitched up, he was reassured.
