Me-Wazzup, y'all! JC7 hollerin' at ya! Welcome to chapter 3, yes 3, numero tres, of TUDP, that's, The Untitled Digimon Project-

Davis- Dude, they know that.

Me- Well, so-rry, Mr I Know Everything.

TK- Um, that's not entirely accurate. He doesn't know everything. He doesn't know anything.

Me- Sarcasm is a foreign language to you, isn't it?

TK- Shut up.

Me- Oh no you did NOT just tell ME to shut up.

Kari- Alright, since it doesn't look like JC7 will do this anytime soon, JUST READ YOUR LINES, PEOPLE!

Me- Nice one, Kar!

Kari- Thanks. Okay, JC7 doesn't own Digimon. Short, sweet, and to the point.

TK- She also doesn't own anything digimon related. No tapes, games, cards, toys-

Davis- What kinda Digimon Fangirl are you?

Me- Shut up. As they were saying, I am trying to keep from taking up more room in my commentary than I do in the actual story-

Davis- Which is working like nothing even happened.

Me- Are you just asking to get your butt whooped?

Davis- I can take you.

Me- You silly fool. I have been trained the Digital way by Gennai!

Kari- Did you just steal that from Star Wars Episode III?

Me- Yeah , but young Gennai looks just like Young Obi-Wan Kenobi. It was a no brainer.

Davis- Hey, I thought you were fighting me!

Kari- Can TK and I take this one?

TK- Yeah, please?

Me- Oh, alright. Go get 'im.

TK and Kari proceed to beating up Davis painfully

Me- In the meantime, Chapter 3 of TUDP!

The Untitled Digimon Project

Chapter 3- All I Really Wanna Do is to Fall Into the Emptyness That is the Space in Between Us

TK was laying on his bed, staring at the ceiling. How did I let Kari get mad at me? I've tried so hard to keep on her good side, then one tiny screwup and she's probably not even talking to me, he thought. Really, he was blowing it WAY out of proportion. She mentioned him in that one sentence, that just happened to be angry with Davis, Yolei and TK. Mostly Davis.

He sighed and threw his hat across the room. It hit Patamon in the face.

"Hey!" Patamon said.

"Sorry 'bout that, Patamon."

"Yeah, whatever," Patamon said, roling over on his makeshift bed in TK's closet. He had been taking a very nice nap when the hat hit him. As revenge, he slept right on top of the hat.

TK glared at Patamon before going back to his own bed. Two things were making him depressed. One was that he thought Kari was extrememly mad at him. The other was that Patamon was sleeping on his hat.

Maybe I'm blowing this whole thing out of proportion, TK thought. Maybe if I just call her, she'll be happy, as if nothing ever happened. Or maybe she'll just hang up on me. He sighed. Only one way to find out.

TK picked up the extension in his room and started to dial her number. But then it rang. He checked the caller ID. It was Kari. He grinned hopefully and answered.

"Takaishi residence, this is TK."

"You know who it is, you have caller ID. But in case you've bumped your head since 3 hours ago when I last saw you, Hi TK, it's Kari."

"Hey, Kar. No, I haven't bumped my head, I just momentarily forgot that I had caller ID."

"Ha. Anyway, I'm calling to apologize for yelling at you earlier. I was cranky cuz Yolei was really irritating me, after Tai had already made me mad enough. Forgive me?"

"Of course I forgive you. I was fixing to call and apologize myself."

"But I wasn't mad at you, much. I was mad at Davis and Yolei. Mostly Davis."

"Yeah, he does have the tendency to be a bit of a blockhead. Hey, just out of curiosity, what did Tai do to you anyway?"

"Trust me, you don't want to know. To change the subject, you're still coming to dinner Saturday, right?"

"Yeah. To get it back to the previous subject, what did Tai do to you?"

"Something you don't need to know. To get back to the better subject, can you bring something to eat? I don't want to just eat Mom's cooking, and it wouldn't impress Dad's boss."

"Like what?"

"Anything. If you want, you can cheat and just buy something from Yolei's parent's store. Just no dessert. I'm making that. And trust me, it's good. But a suprise, too, so don't ask."

"'Kay. Is it formal dress?"

"Pretty much. Mom wants me to wear some kind of weird frilly, lacy dress thing. I'm trying to convince her that I can pick out something way better. So far, the score's Mom- 2 and Kari- 1."

"Heh. I don't hafta wear a suit, right?"

"Heck no! Don't wear a suit at all. Just don't wear sweats and a T-shirt."

"Good, cuz I don't own a suit and I don't wanta borrow one from Matt."

"I need to know, how can I sneak this egg around without people seeing it? He requires constant care and I can't give it to him if he's in my backpack all the time."

"Sorry, no ideas. Did ya try Izzy or Tai?"

"Izzy had no clue and Tai's no help."

"Hey! My idea to pretend it was a soccer ball was a good idea!"

TK heard Tai over the phone line.

"Tai, get off the phone!" Kari said.

"Make me."

"Excuse me TK. I'll be back in a sec."

Kari put the phone down and left her room. TK heard Kari enter Tai's room through the phone, and heard him yell as she whacked him on the back of the head. Then he heard a click as Tai's phone was hung up. She walked back to her own room and picked her extension back up.

"Sorry, TK. I had to take care of something."

"Um, okay?" He scratched his head. What goes on at her house, he thought.

"I can't go to the Digital World tomorrow. Tai's having a soccer game and I promised to go to it. It's the semi-finals."

"No prob, I can't go either. Basketball practice."

"Then how's everyone else gonna get to the DigiWorld tomorrow?"

"Ken, remember?"

"He's playing after Tai."

"Oh. Well, we need the break. We've been destroying control spires and cleaning up MaloMyotismon's mess for almost 3 years. We deserve the break."

"True. Oh, TK? I have to go. Mom wants my help with dinner."

"Good luck and don't eat anything discolored, fuzzy, or strangely named."

"Trust me, I don't do that anyway. See ya tomorrow!"

"Same to you."

TK hung up his phone and grinned. He fell onto his bed and layed there for a while. He loved the phone conversations he had with Kari. They always helped to lift his spirits. He rolled over and pulled a picture out of his pillowcase. If you don't know who this picture is of, then I pity you. It was, you guessed it, Kari. He grinned as he studied the picture of the girl who he loved. Maybe I should tell her. But what if she doesn't feel the same way? If I say something and she doesn't feel the same, then it'll completely ruin our friendship.

He groaned. Love was just way too complicated.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Me- Aww. It's just so beautiful the Takari beauty of this chapter ending.

Davis- Aww, I know. Isn't it? gags

Kari- That was a short chapter. Explanation?

Me- When I was writing this story, I realized that chapter 2 was way too long and I couldn't begin chapter 4 with this. It wouldn't have worked. Not with how I'm trying to write this. Anyway, you get the idea.

Davis- This ending still stinks.

Terriermon- Mo-nen-tai, Davis, mo-nen-tai.

Me- You're in the wrong story, pal. This is a Zero Two fic, if you couldn't tell by now.

Terriermon- Oops, sorry. But still, mo-nen-tai.

Me- And still see-ya-bye.

TK- Oo, good one.

Me- I know, isn't it? There's one more thing I don't own. The chapter title. It's actually the beginning of the Chorus to one of my favorite songs. The song's called The Space in Between Us by Building 429. It's an awesome song by an awesome Christian rock band. I highly reccomend it.

Davis- Now that the reccomendations are done, can we go home now?

TK- Wow Davis. I'm suprised that you know a 5-syllable word and used it correctly in a sentence.

Davis- Save the learning junk, we're not at school.

TK- Dude, that was sarcasm.

Davis- Oh. I really didn't know.

Kari- Alrighty then. Well, till next weekend-

Me- I'll take it from here. Till next weekend, Read-and-Review, people. Later!
