Chapter 1: Intro
"Yagami!" Mr. Tekeshi yelled, "this is a class room not your bed! Now that I was so rudely interrupted what was I talking about. Oh yes that's it the psychology of a neglected child."
'This sucks,' Tai thought to himself, 'how did I get stuck in this class.' The former goggle headed boy mused to himself.
The collage class drug on, and on for roughly an hour more. After class had finished living Tai walked out onto the soccer field for daily peractes.
After a grueling practus game in which Tai managed to beat his right winger and 2nd captain, by one late score by one of the back-ups on the team, Tai didn't even know the guys name.
"You did really good out there Tai," said his red headed girlfriend. "Did any one else score besides the last goal that is?"
"It was a team win Sora," Tai said holding up his index finger.
"Was it also a team loss then?" Sora winked.
Scratching the back of his thinking of some to say, "well maybe." Sora laughed, 'she's so cute when she laughs.' Noticing Tai stares she starts to blush.
"Get showered and lets get to Joe's house," Sora said starting to turn red.
"Why are we going to Joe's?" Tai asked.
"Don't know, he didn't say but Mimi told us to be there when I talked to her at lunch," Sora said.
--------------------------------------------------------------
After Tai had taken a shower he slowly walked out to Sora's silver Lexus. "Did you shower?" Asked Sora plugging her nose.
"Yes!" Tai shouted blushing and franticly sniffing his armpits.
"Just kidding, goggle head," Sora said poking fun.
"Hay I don't have those goggles any more Davis does," Tai said a little flustered until Sora gave him a little kiss on the lips.
Then they drove toward Joe's house in almost complete silence, which was awkward for the couple who was usually very talkative, or at least Tai was with Sora listening.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Soon they arrived at Joe's and Mimi's place, navigating their car around the other's for almost an hour.
"God, she could have warned us that they where having a party," Tai muttered getting angry as they moved toward the door.
"Chi, you know as well as I do Mimi isn't having a party," Sora said patting Tai on the back. "There would be a lot more music and people, you remember her last party."
"Not really I, kinda passed out after my third keg stand," Tai said looking at the ground.
"Don't remind me you, barfed in my car," Sora said poking her boyfriend.
As they were greeted at the door by Mimi high-pitch screams of joy for them coming to the gathering of digidestined.
They were greeted by Davis, the by Ken and Yolie, Kari then gave them both hugs telling them how much she missed them, Izzy shook their hands, Joe simple waved to them and said hi.
"Joe this is great, but why did you call us here?" Kari asked.
"I'll tell you when Cody gets here," Joe said as he began to talk to Izzy.
Ten minutes latter the door bell ring and Mimi then shrieked with more joy as she met Cody at the door. Mimi after she moved back to Japan for collage helped set Cody up on a blind date with one of Kari's friends sister from cheerleading's little sister. Mimi loved to double date with Cody and his young girl friend, all paid for by Joe of course.
"Ok, Cody's here can we please get the announcement?" Tai begged.
"Lets order dinner first," Joe said obviously trying to avoid the subject.
"Good food," Tai and Davis said at the same time.
"Boys," Sora and Kari said together, then shared in a laugh.
After they finished the pizzas, or more accurately Tai and Davis finished the pizzas with an eating contest, leaving them both ready to throw up, luckily they didn't.
"Joe are you finally going to tell us," Ken asked getting a bit annoyed at Joe for delay after delay.
"Come on honey, just tell them," Mimi whispered into Joe's ear.
"Ok, well here it is," Joe started to say looking down at his feet. "Um, some of you could think of this bad or good but its kind of a big deal you see, um." The group was starting to grow restless.
"Will you just tell us already!" Tai demanded.
"Ok. Ok. Here we go," Joe said still stumbling over his words. "Matt gets out of rehab next week."
With that the group was reeling. "Any questions?" Joe asked
------------------------------Flash back------------------------------------
Tai was in the middle of soccer practes when he saw his younger sister running toward him. 'What is she doing here she never comes to peractus,' Tai thought to himself.
The closer she ran to him he noticed the red of her tears falling freely.
"What's wrong Kar?" Tai said as he in gulped her in a bear hug. Which to his surprise she was fighting off.
"No, we have to go to the hospital." She said still being hugged by her older brother.
"What? Why?" Tai yelled in fear of the place and in fear of what he might fin there.
"NO TIME, LETS GO," Kari shouted braking free of Tai's hug. Tai still dumbfounded stood there not knowing what to do when Kari turned to him and screamed as loudly as she could "NOW!"
Before Tai knew it he started running after her to find his mother sitting in their car looking like she was going to tare out her hair. Which Tai immediately thought, 'oh no dad.'
The ride which would normally take forty-five minutes took less then twenty, though nobody in the car at that point minded much, even though Tai had no clue what was happening.
When they arrived they found only Izzy and his family, and Joe and his family. The look on all their faces was the look of complete horror and concern.
There were some doctors and nurses leaving muttering poor kid, Tai not knowing what to make of this ask one of them "what's going on."
The nurse looked to Tai and said simply "some thing horrible." With the look of pity on her face he decided not to ask any more but to go and see. Tai then moved quickly through the door.
To find a site that haunted his nights for years to come. He found Matt crying over a bloody little body. Mangled with his leg bent in-between the calf and knee with the bone sticking out chest collapsed and face unrecognizable, bruised and torn. Eyes lifeless and empty with a body to match it.
Tai then walked over and put his hand on to his crying friends back in order to comfort. "Their all dead Tai, all of them," Matt cried out. Tai couldn't help but cry to knowing that he will also no longer be able to see TK again. And partly because he knew that meant that his best friends family was dead, and after their parents had gotten remarried, which brought Matt to cry then to but for a deferent reason.
"Why?" Was the only words that Matt was able to get out through his cries.
------------------------------End Flashback----------------------------------
"That means, that one of us has to bring him in at least until he is able mentally to live on his own with out hurting himself," Joe said. "Money shouldn't be a problem remember he did make a lot with his band, he probably has more than the rest of us."
There was an awkward silence once again. "The place that he went to was top of the line. They helped him dramatically psychologically." Joe added hoping that some one would step up.
"I would like for him to live with me," Izzy said softly looking at his shoes. "It would be nice to have a room mate especially one that can cook."
