T.K's watch stuck 4:00 am. He got out of his sleeping bag, still fully clothed, and walked towards the forest.

He had to take special care when going past the group of digimon who were all awake talking quietly amongst themselves in a circle. He saw Patamon comforting Gatomon and telling her that Kari would be all right.

He slowly made his way towards the forest, luckily not snapping any twigs or rustling any leaves. As soon as he was out of earshot, he turned on a little torch that Kari had given him for his tenth birthday. He started walking faster and faster until her broke out into a run.

"Kari?" He whispered after a few minutes of running. Apparently, Kari had been here before as there was a path marked out that you would only noticed if you were looking really hard.

He followed the path until he found a clearing. The moon reflected off the water as it lapped the shore gently. The full moon shone a brilliant light into the world highlighting a boulder near the shore.

T.K gasped. The boulder moved. Slowly, it stretched itself out to reveal the shape of a human girl. He ran down to the figure and saw who it was.

"Kari…" He placed a hand on her shoulder and she jumped. She turned her head sharply to see his ocean blue eyes staring at her and calmed down.

"Oh, it's only you. I thought you were Tai or someone." She replied then turned her head to watch the white foam gently lap the shore.

T.K sat down beside her.

"Why is it our brothers who have to argue when we feel like this?" She asked the blonde next to her who sighed.

"I don't know Kari." He replied, "But we'll get through this together, no matter what happens." He turned to look at the girl next to him

Her eyes were now puffy and sparkling with tears, which slipped from her crimson pools and slowly wound there way down her cheeks to her chin and then, feeling the force of gravity, leapt to the ground, joining the remains of many others that had fallen before them.

He placed an arm around Kari's waist and pulled her close. She eventually gave into her emotions and started crying into T.K's shoulder.

For a moment, he was to astonished to move. But then, after regaining his composure placed one hand on her back and rubbed it gently. The obvious effect was that it soothed Kari. Her crying eased off a little and turned from pouring out her heart to gentle sobs.

After a while, she stopped crying. She looked at T.K with her puffy eyes and tear-covered eyelashes. He wiped the tears and spoke some words of comfort into her ear. She smiled at him then stood up and walked to the water's edge. She placed her hands gently into the water and raised them to her face, the cool substance clearing up her vision as the sun gently started to rise above the horizon.

"Kari. Look." T.K whispered. She raised her head, dried her face and looked at the sunrise. It was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen. The way the sky merged from the black of night to a reddish colour and then into the baby blue of morning, outlining the yellow circle in the middle. All of this was reflected on the still ocean surface.

"It's beautiful." She whispered back.

"Yeah. But not as beautiful as you." He replied. He lifted her head to face his and pulled her into a kiss.

At first, he had expected her to pull away, but she did the opposite. Taking his lead from her, he turned the kiss into a deeper, more passionate thing, which carried on until the two were almost out of breath.

"T.K!"

"KARI!"

"WHERE ARE YOU?"

"We'd better get back." Said T.K when he heard his older brother calling him.

"Yeah." She nodded and they headed back towards camp. She slipped her hand into his and he took a step closer. Eventually, they walked back into camp with T.K's arm around Kari's shoulders with her arm around his waist. Needless to say, the two older siblings were furious.

"KARI! WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH HIM?" Tai demanded.

"Why it would seem that she is walking with me." T.K replied, earning the sniggers of a few of their friends.

"YOU LEAVE HER ALONE T.K!"

"TAI! TOUCH HIM AND YOU'RE DEAD!" Everyone looked at Matt who looked back with a confused expression on his face.

"I didn't say it! No matter how much I wanted to." He said shocked. So everyone looked at the two brunettes, and it became apparent who had said what.

"He's poisoned your mind Kari! Can't you see?"

"No Tai, you're the one who has tried to poison it!"

"T.K is an enemy!"

"No Tai! His brother is YOUR enemy! And you're my enemy. You've said it yourself before, 'the friend of the enemy of the enemy is my friend also'." She finished with a smirk on her face.

"I've never said that in my life!"

"Yes you have you just can't remember it because your brain isn't a brain at all, IT'S A HAIRBALL!"

"Don't you dare speak like that to me!"

"I'll speak to you any way I want!"

"Kari!"

"WHAT? What Tai? Are you going to tell me that I'm not allowed to have a boyfriend now? You gonna tell me that it's illegal for me to love someone? Huh? Well guess what Tai. You can tell me whatever you want. Because, unless you're telling me that you've apologised to Matt, I'm just gonna ignore you!"

"Kari…" His voice was getting smaller now.

"What? Are you going to apologise?"

"No. Not until he apologises first!"

"YOU STARTED IT!" She yelled, her temper growing short now.

"NO HE DID!"

"OH SURE HE DID! OH YES. LET'S ALL BELEIVE TAI BECAUSE HE'S OT HAIR FOR BRAINS AND-" He hit her. The group gasped.

"You've done it now Tai." T.K muttered under his breath. He stood up and walked towards Tai.

"What do you want?" He snarled.

"Tai, what's gotten into you?"

"Nothing. I'm just normal me. But you, you poisoned my sister's mind. And you're gonna have to pay for that…"

"Then you'll have to pay the consequences of hitting your own sister."

"It wasn't that hard."

"ONLY HARD ENOUGH TO KNOCK HER OUT TAI!" Sora yelled from where she was tending to an unconscious Kari.

"SHUT UP SORA!" He snapped as Joe rushed over.

"NO ONE YELLS AT MY GIRLFREND AND GETS AWAY WITH IT!" Matt yelled, now getting angry. Taichi had now shouted at his girlfriend and had yelled at his brother. This was no longer a row between siblings; this was an all out personal war!
