Okay, here it goes!!!
You Never Know
Chapter 5
Kari rubbed her eyes from trying to sleep. TK is right; I must have been hallucinating yesterday. She thought.
She sighed as her teacher kept rambling about homework must be done. She was always the victim of these lectures, since she always did her homework. It was boring to hear something you don't need to hear everyday. And to top it off, having classes on Sunday.
The bell rang just then. Ah, saved by the bell.
Since math classes were in her day school, she could use her own locker. She unlocked her combination lock and took her bag out. After putting all her remaining books and accessories in her bag, she walked home.
"Mom! I'm home!" Kari called as she shut the door.
"KARI!! We have to go out!! Quick!" came Tai's voice.
"Why?"
"Mom! We're going out for a bit! Be back at dinner."
"But Tai, where are you going?" Their mother came out from her room.
"School. There's a...uh...tournament."
"Okay, be careful. And remember to look both ways when you cross the street."
"Hai. Bye mom." Kari said, even though she had no idea what was going on. It must be serious; Tai didn't even say 'I'm not a kid anymore.' What happened?
They raced out to the direction of Izzy's house. "What happened oniisan?" Kari asked while trying to catch up with her brother.
"TK. He's-"
"TK! No! Was there an accident? No, no...please..."
"Let me finish!" They stopped when the horizontal traffic light turned green. "He opened a portal to the digi world and went in. We don't know why he did that but it's dangerous. First of all, he should have told us."
"A portal? So, are we going after him?" Kari's eyes widened.
"We have to! There's school and he shouldn't be going there at all. And lately he was acting a bit strange...so we're extra worried." Tai stared into space. The traffic lights turned red and they started walking. Kari broke the silence when they reached the other side.
"We had strange dreams." She said quietly.
"Strange dreams?" Tai waited for further explanation.
"Gatomon and Patamon were being attacked. It was like everyone in the digi world was being attacked. It was so-" Kari closed her eyes, "horrible."
She opened her eyes again. Tai was silent. "My second dream wasn't as clear. I was under these dark shadows of the trees feeling angst like I don't want to live anymore. TK called me about it but I exploded at him."
"You said sorry right?"
"Hai."
Why did I have to ask that? Of course she will say sorry. Tai was angry for his stupidity.
"We're here." Kari said and rang the doorbell.
Izzy opened the door to see two panting Kamiyas. "Come in. Everyone is here already."
They proceed to Izzy's room to find three people around the computer, trying to figure out how to work the program.
Izzy sighed. "Guys, let me do it." He received three glares.
"Are you saying we can't do it?" Matt inquired.
"Yes." Tai answered for Izzy. Three pouts came.
"Alright! I give up! Here, Izzy. You do it." Joe said, handing the lab top over.
"That's what I said." Izzy took the computer and started typing.
A few minutes later a portal opened. "Come on! Let's go!" Tai said, eager to go back. "Eh? Where is Joe and Matt?"
"Seems like they went in already, since we're so crowded in this room." Sora said.
"Let's go then!!" Tai jumped in, followed by Sora, Izzy, and Kari.
They go through a swirling dimension...
"Urg, are we there?" asked Joe, standing up.
Matt looked around. Birds all around were chirping, but the sounds didn't seem so happy. They were in the middle of the forest. It was the exact place they where when they first came here. "I think we are the first ones..."
"I'm glad someone's with me..." Joe mumbled.
"Come on Joe! Let's go find the others!" Matt started to walk off in the direction of the clearing of the forest. Joe followed him until they reached the cliff. They both stared down.
"You know, I have this eerie feeling. It's so quiet! And it so empty too. Where are all the digimons?" Joe whispered, as if to match the atmosphere.
Matt sighed. "For once, I have to agree with your worrying."
"This isn't a time for jokes! We need to find TK!"
Matt snapped back to reality. Joe is right; this isn't a time for jokes. We need to find TK. And fast. If I don't...Matt sighed. I don't know what I'll do.
"The others should be here by now...I wonder where they went?" Joe commented.
"Let's find them." With that said, Matt started down the hill.
"Ahhh, my butt is so sore from that fall. Can't it be any gentler?!?" Tai exclaimed, but no one seemed to care.
Kari was the first to get up. "Where are we? It seems so...creepy here." Kari shuddered as a chill breeze went by, along with a few dead leaves. "Never mind that; we need to find TK."
The rest of the group got up and analyzed the area they were dropped in. They were in a thick forest, full of green life.
"This seems like a nice place. Do you recognize it?" Izzy asked. They all shook their heads.
"But it's not nice Izzy! Kari's right! It's eerie!"
"I meant physically!"
"Oh."
"We have to get going!" Kari said, not wanting to waste a second of their search.
"Wait a second," Sora realized, "why were there dead leaves if this forest is so green? And its summer too."
All of them filled with realization. "Oh yeaah..." Tai said.
"The leaves...came from that direction." Kari pointed to her left. Everyone started to run that way.
"Hmm...what's this?" Mimi asked herself while looking at the computer screen. It wasn't working properly all of a sudden. Palmon popped up on the screen.
"What?!? Palmon? Is that really you? What are you doing??"
"Come..." some sizzling, "to the digi world..." some more, "Quick!" Then the computer shut down.
"O my gosh." Mimi rushed to get there.
"When will they come??" Joe asked annoyingly.
"I think we're separated." Matt commented.
Joe sighed. "I sure hope they're all-" BOOM! "Did you hear that?"
"Yeah. What was that?"
"Let's go and see...I guess. It better not be one of those big digimons. You don't know what they will do, you know..."
"Joe! DUCK!!"
"What?" Joe turned around, confused. There he saw a big digimon, already swinging at him.
Sigh. I'm sooooooooooooo sorry it took so long for me to update this crap. I was typing it up the day I finished the other chapter, but then there was some interruptions. I got sick, and then I had a two week summer camp thing, which I had to help at 9 to 4 something. Geez, and then I had to go to camp, overnight one. Ans now I jus came back from camp, typing this. forgive me!!! And if this is crap, I understand. My muses just left me and I'm writing without inspiration. So please try to understand....
