Hey y'all! I'm back with another chapter. It's taken me so long because I had a bit of trouble with everyone's parts besides Kari and Tai's. (Which I had chosen pretty much since the beginning of this story, and decided I couldn't wait for them till the end.) : ) I'm estimating this chapter to be this stories finest hour.

Disclaimer: I do not own Digimon.

This chapter is dedicated to: luvisgood for spreading the word about my story. You are awesome.

.--.BEGIN CHAPTER.--.

"Tai, truth, dare, double dare, promise to repeat, black ship, red flames?" Tai looked up at Tk.

"Okay squirt, promise to repeat. I mean, how bad can that be?" Tk sat back and thought. Kari smiled.

"Tai, you didn't forget Kari could help him did you?"

"So? What can she do? It's repeating."

"You can't break a promise Tai." Tk smiled and looked at Kari.

"Alright. Tai, repeat after me: I, Tai Kamiya…"

"I Tai Kamiya…"

"…will allow Kari to tell the story about the object in the purse without objecting." Tai's eyes grew wide and Mimi mouthed the words repeat to him. With no emotion in his voice, he repeated.

"…will allow Kari to tell the story about the object in the purse without objecting." He crossed his arms. "Fine, go ahead." His face grew deep crimson and Kari smiled.

"Finally! This is awesome!" Kari turned to the others and took a deep breath. "Tai asked me if he could borrow twenty bucks. I told him there was no way I was loaning him money, cause he never paid back. So after a bit of arguing, he grabbed my purse from me and dug through it.

"He was examining everything very closely. He asked me what one thing was and I told him it was a pen."

"He couldn't tell it was a pen?"

"Hey!" Tai interjected. "It was one of those novelty 'pull-my-finger' pens. They don't look like pens at all." Matt nodded.

"Yeah, he's right." Kari glared at the boys and they shut up.

"Then he grabbed one of these." Kari pulled a small white tube from her pocket. Matt just looked at it as Mimi and Sora started laughing. Tai turned a bright red and Tk bit his bottom lip, trying not to get himself beat up. "He asked what it was and I told him it was my favorite candy." Tk burst out laughing.

"Watch it Blondie."

"Don't you dare threaten him Tai!" Kari shot Tai 'that' look again. "You are still on my list of people to murder at this juncture in time." He bit his bottom lip.

"So what did he do?"

"Oh no… he didn't…" Sora's eyes pleaded with Kari.

"Yep, he opened it, took a few bites, than swallowed it whole." Everyone but Tai and Kari burst out laughing. "That's not even the worst part."

"It isn't?" There were tears in Mimi's eyes.

"Yes it is. That's it… I just ate it." Kari smiled.

"It made him sick. He couldn't digest it, so we had to take him to the hospital and he had to explain to the doctor and several nurses how he managed to swallow a tampon." Tai dove across the room and tackled Kari. Tk quickly pulled him off and smacked him across the face.

"Snap out of it Tai." Tai blushed again.

"Sorry about that… come to think of it… it's actually really funny…" Everyone burst out laughing and Tai sat down.

"Mimi?" Tai sighed. "Do we have to say it?" They all looked at each other.

"No, I think it'll be fine if we don't. We all know the options."

"Ok. So Meems?" Mimi sighed. She was tired, and about to do something she never thought she'd ever do.

"Truth." Sora and Kari gasped. Tai thought for a bit.

"Mimi, who was you out with that night Matt and you, got in that big fight?" Mimi looked at the floor and then murmured the answer.

"What was there Meems?" She bit her lip and then looked up a bit.

"I was out with Jake okay?" Kari gasped and Matt looked away as fast as he could. "Matt…"

"Did you kiss him?"

"What?"

"Did you kiss him?" Mimi smiled.

"No. I didn't kiss him. I did however smack him." Matt turned to Mimi with interest in his eyes.

"You hit him?"

"Yeah."

"Why?"

"Sorry… I already answered more then the required amount of questions." Matt chuckled a bit. Everyone sighed, just barely avoiding a huge fight.

"Mimi?" She turned to face Matt.

"Yeah?"

"I have to pee." They all started laughing again. "Guys! It's not funny! I have to pee! Badly!" They all calmed down.

"Sora?" Sora turned to Mimi.

"Red flames."

"Okay, um… I'll be easy."

"Wow… thanks."

"What celebrity would you go gay for?" Sora stopped and thought for a bit.

"Evangeline Lilly."

"Who's that?" Sora looked at Tai.

"The girl who plays Kate on Lost." Kari smiled and leaned back a bit.

"I really like that show." Mimi laughed.

"Me too Kari… me too." Matt looked at Mimi strangely.

"Why would you laugh?" Sora smiled.

"They're talking about the fact that they both think the druggie on the show is a total hunk."

"Dominic Monahagan ." Mimi and Kari sighed and looked at the ceiling.

"Okay Tk, get us out of this conversation."

"Black ship." Sora popped up and grabbed her bag. She disappeared into the kitchen and came out exactly 13 minutes later. She handed Tk a sandwich and smiled.

"Eat up." Tk began to lift it to his nose but Kari grabbed his arm.

"Don't smell it. It just makes it that much worse." Tk nodded and gulped down the sandwich. He gagged a bit to keep it down and then just closed his eyes for a bit.

"Alright Kari, Tk already went so it's your turn."

"Matt?"

"Double dare." Kari leaned back in her chair. She once again flashed her sickly innocent smile.

"Sing 'I'm Too Sexy' while stripping down to your boxers right in front of Sora. Of course, you have to take her to that corner so we can see what's going on, but only she really gets the whole show." Mimi growled at Kari and Tai shot daggers before she glared back. "Torture and revenge."

"Mimi?"

"Just do it babe." Matt grabbed the arm of a reluctant Sora and pulled her to the corner. He started the shirt and stripped. As they watched they noticed he was very good at it. Too good. When they walked back to the group and sat in their respective places, with Sora hiding her face in Tai's chest, Kari just sat there, looking at Matt.

"Matt… ever strip professionally?" Matt blushed.

"I choose double dare, not truth." After that, everyone got real quiet for a bit. Matt's voice broke through the silence. "Well, there's only one person that hasn't gone yet so…" He turned to Kari. "Alright Miss Fear, choose your poison."

"Double dare." Kari narrowed her eyes and enunciated every syllable. She needed him to know she wasn't afraid. His smile covered his entire face.

"Glad you made the right choice. I have just the thing for you."

"Bring it on." Matt chuckled. He leaned over and whispered something in Mimi's ear. Mimi scrunched up her face and gave him a confused look, but got up and jogged to her room.

"What'd you tell her to do Matt?"

"You'll see. Chill lil' bro. Man… you'd think this was your dare." Mimi walked back out of her room with a yellow mini-skirt and a pink tube-top. She threw them at Matt and just shrugged at the questioning glances from the others. "These are from your Salvation Army pile right?" Mimi nodded.

"It's what you asked for." Matt smiled.

"Thanks babes." He turned back to Kari and threw the clothes at her. "First, put these on."

"She can't do that Matt; it'll go against Sora's…"

"She won't be wearin' it long."

"Ok… what's going on here Matt?" He ignored Tai's question and turned back to his victim.

"You know Kristabea's?"

"The clothing store?" Matt nodded. "Yeah, ritzy place."

"Yeah that one. Go there wearing these. Then get in the display window and take off the mannequin's clothes. After the clothes are off, remove your outfit and put it on the mannequin." Kari's face dropped. "Then come back here in nothing but what you are wearing currently." He motioned to her bra and boxers. Mimi threw her arms around Matt and started laughing.

"Now that is a dare!" Kari sighed. Tk kissed her forehead.

"You can do this babe." Kari sighed.

"Take the camera so we know you really did it." Kari nodded. She grabbed her small purse and put her camera in it.

"Alright, I better get this over with." She stood up and put on the clothes. Mimi switched on the TV and changed it to MTV.

"We'll be waiting right here." Kari smiled sarcastically at Matt and took a deep breath as she opened the door.

"Guys… is this a good idea?" Mimi turned to Tai.

"Don't be such a worry-wart. She'll be fine."

.--.FIVE MINUTES LATER AT KRISTABEA'S.--.

Kari sighed and opened the door of the fancy establishment. A woman in an expensive-looking blue dress was at the counter and took a long hard look at Kari. Kari knew she didn't look like she belonged. There was only one other person in the store at the time, and he was turned towards Kari and dropped the Tai he had been examining. She smiled and strutted towards him.

He watched the yellow mini-skirt sway back and forth as she made her way towards him. Her smile looked playful and innocent. He knew her type. She wanted something. And with looks like hers, and that look on her face, he'd go to work without a tie for her if she asked.

"Hi. What is you name?" He just kept starring at her. He smiled at her accent. It was Spanish.

"I'm Landon Cablyn. Can I ask yours?" Kari smiled at him.

"I'm Esperanza Fuentes." She held out her hand and he took it and kissed it. "You are very… how you say… charming." She smiled as he blushed. "I feel so very lost in here. I can tell that lady believes I do not…" She paused and looked at the ceiling. "… belong." She motioned towards the worker. Landon looked over at her.

"She is just stuck up. You have nothing to worry about." He paused. "So what did you want? Surely you do not just walk up and make friends with strangers all the time. Kari smiled and laughed a bit.

"You looked like a kind soul. I wanted…" She paused and sighed. "Never mind. Just forget I came over. It does not… matter." She turned away, but he grabbed her arm.

"What is it?"

"No. Sr. Cablyn, it is loco. I am loco for bothering you with these… stupid idea of mine." Her accent did not waver.

"Try me." She reluctantly smiled.

"I need to get my wallet in that window over there, but the girl… she… how you say, will not let me get in there to get it."

"How'd it get in there?"

"Some stupid American tourist took it as a joke and threw it in there. I've tried to get it since this morning, but she no allow me to be going in." (AN: Sorry if I'm making the grammar problems a bit much. I have only taken one year of Spanish, so I'm just throwing in grammar problems whenever.)

"How can I help?" She bit her bottom lip and looked at the floor.

"Could you distract her for me? I mean, I need her to pay attention to you and not me." He looked hesitant. "I swear to you, I am not speaking the lies. I swear on the grave of my grandmamma." Kari worked hard to keep a straight face. She hated her father's mother. Besides, both her grandmother's were alive. He seemed to think about it.

"Depends."

"On what?"

"Will you give me a kiss?" Kari smiled. Of course, what else could a guy like this ask for from her? (AN: No, she's not conceited. She is just more aware of her looks.)

"So if I give you a kiss… you'll help me?" He nodded. "Alright." She smiled. "What could it hurt?" She leaned over and kissed him on the lips. It was short and sweet, and when she pulled away she waved sweetly and walked across the store.

Landon walked over to the coffee machine and poured himself a cup. He walked back over to the area he was just in and looked in 'Esperanza's' direction. He smiled goofily and tripped over a rise in the carpet. His coffee spilled all over a bunch of white shirts.

"Shoot!" The girl at the counter's mouth gaped open and she ran to him.

"What did you think you were doing?" She gave him a big shove.

"I was just looking at the beautiful Spanish flower over…" He paused. She had already disappeared.

"That doesn't excuse…" She growled and pushed Landon to the table. "Go get some napkins." He pulled out some napkins, shaking his head. He knew the girl wasn't there for her wallet. You can't trust foreign girls; he'd learned that from his previous girlfriend. He just was glad to get a kiss.

Kari quickly pulled the clothes off herself just as she had done to the mannequin. She pulled the shirt over the mannequin's head and then picked it up and forced the skirt on. As she had the skirt half-way on she heard a man's voice.

"Hey! You there! In the window!" She looked up and gasped.

"Shoot! Who ordered the rent-a-cop?" She rolled her eyes and finished pulling up the skirt. She pulled out a digital camera from her small purse she had brought and snapped a picture, before quickly replacing it. The door to the window slid open and she felt herself being tugged out.

"What did you think you were doing?" She gritted her teeth. Time to turn it up a notch.

"Sir I was… it was just a bit of harmless fun." Her Spanish accent once again came out flawless.

"What is your name missy?"

"Esperanza Fuentes."

"Where are your parents?"

"My dad, he is on a trip of business in the America's. I am staying with my… step mom." She paused. "She is how you say… his trophy wife?" He eyed her questioningly. "She is going to be a wonderful model."

"What is her name?"

"Regina Gangerly." He grabbed her by the arm.

"I'm going to give you a warning, but I'm driving you home so I can see… uh, speak to your step-mom." Kari nodded.

"Of course sir."

.--.THREE MINUTES LATER AT MIMI'S.--.

Mimi heard a car pull up and she looked out the window.

"Rent-a-cop!"

"Great! Nice going Matt!"

"Shut up Tai!" Sora stood up.

"I'll answer it. Guys, let Mimi and I do the talking you hear? You come nowhere near us. You are not our boyfriends ok? You're just our friends unless told otherwise while he's here." Tai and Matt nodded. Tk just sat back. There was a knock on the door and Sora answered it. "Hello?"

"Hi. Are you a miss… Regina Gangerly?" Sora shook her head.

"Oh no. I'm a friend of Regina's hold on." She turned and Mimi opened the door for them to come in.

"I'm Regina Gangerly." She paused. "Esperanza Fuentes! Where have you been? You've had me worried sick! If your dad was in town…" The rent-a-cop looked Mimi over.

"Can I see some ID please?"

"Yeah, hold on." Mimi left for her room and emerged again a couple minutes later with a laminated card. "Here." He took it from her.

"Regina… you are… 21?" Mimi nodded. She turned to Kari.

"What do you have to say or yourself?"

"I'm sorry. Look, it won't happen again." Mimi let out her breath slowly.

"I'm sorry about her officer. She's kind of a wild one. I can't control her ya know… being so close in ages… I would never have agreed to marry her father but… he's so sweet ya know." She smiled. "Thanks for bringing her home."

"No problem. Just keep her under control." He turned to Kari. "And no more foolishness got it?" Kari nodded. Mimi waved as the cop drove off. Kari and Mimi turned towards each other and high-five.

"You get the picture?" Kari nodded.

"Just before he opened the door and dragged me out." She paused. "He had no problem with me just being in my underclothes on the way back though." Tai gagged a bit.

"Let me see the picture." Kari pulled out the camera and Mimi grabbed it and looked at the picture. She smiled. "The clothes aren't really all that bad I guess."

"I ain't going back to get them for you." She turned to see all the guys looking very confused. "Y'all ok?"

"A fake ID?" Sora smiled at Tk's surprise.

"You guys were too good at that. Mimi already knew Kari's story."

"Have you ever done that before?" Kari nodded. Sora turned and smiled.

"Six times."

.--.END CHAPTER.--.

So what did you think of it?

Please RnR!

I'm pretty sure this is the longest chapter I've ever written.
