'Gah, my head hurts,'Kari thought as she sat up. She looked around at her surroundings and saw that she was in what looked use to be a meadow, but now that all that remained was darkness, not even the sun was shining. She jumped when she felt a hand on her shoulder.
"Easy now,Love," said a familiar british accented voice. She swatted his leg and stood up.
"Don't do that! You almost gave me a heart attack!" She scolded him.
He chuckled, "Sorry. You know where we are?"
She looked around some more and said, "I think that we're in the Digital World."
"Yeah, that'd be my guess. Bet that the others were sent here too," he picked up the bag that Kari had grabbed before they were brought to the Digital World.
"Bet so too," She looked at him, and he saw the fear in her russet eyes. "I have a bad feeling about this place," She shivered and wrapped her arms around herself.
"Hey," Spike threw his arms around her and started walking forward. "Don't worry, Pet, we've been up against apocolypse, people trying to take over the world, people trying to kill us, and we beaten them all,an' this isn't going to be no different."
She smiled at this, "I guess you're right. We are pretty good aren't we?"
"The best. Now let's go find the others and get this thing over with. 'Cause the faster we get this done, the faster I can get back to my stories." Kari rolled her eyes and shook her head.
"You think Kar and Spike were sent here too?" T.J. asked.
"It's a possibility," answered Josh. He looked around, "Did anyone think to grab a bag?"
"Yeah, I did," said Jason.
"Good. Hand it here, I'll see if I can call her."
"What are you talking about?" Davis asked as Jason handed Josh the bg. He looked through it and finally found a cell phone. "That can't work here."
Jamie laughed and pointed to the phone, "That can work anywhere, and any demension. With our lives, you never know when we are going to be taken and where. So Josh, being the genius of the family, he made each of us phones that can work anywhere, anytime. And then Kari had the idea, that we should have backpacks ready so that if we are taken we can grab it. It has a weapon, a blanket, and some Oatmeal bars and bottles of water, and the one that Jason got has Josh's laptop in it."
"Wow," said Izzy. He was amazed that someone actually had the idea to make a phone like that. "Can I see it after he gets done?"
"Sure,"Jamie shrugged his shoulders.
"Kar,"Josh said finally. "Where are you at?......Where at in the digiworld?......Check your phone, I put a map on the phones......Okay, we are ......." He removed the phone from his ear and looked through it. "We are close to Vending Machine Field ........Yeah, that's what I was thinking......We? Spike with you?.......Sorry, I didn't know......Yeah, yeah. I know......Okay, don't bite my head off....Bye." He hung up the phone.
"She get mad?" asked James chuckling.
"Yes! I thought she was going to come through the phone to strangle me."
"What did she get mad about this time?"
"She thought that I intensionally forgot that Spike was a Digidestined." They all just shook their head. They all knew how she felt about the blonde vampire. He was the one that she always turned to when she couldn't talk to them.
"So where are we gonna meet them?"
"Digitamamon's Diner."
"Good, cause I'm starving," said T.J.
"You are always starving."
"I'm a growing boy,"
"That worked when you were 10, not at 22." They continued their banter as they all started walking. Jason and Angel hung back with the Obidians, as the other vampires joined in T.J. and Josh's argument.
"Hey, Angel," said Tai walking beside the older vampire.
"Yeah?" He looked at the young man.
"How's she been doing?"
Angel sighed. "Good. She's had some bad times, but she got through them."
"What bad times?" By now the others were had missed Kari when she left. But some others were still mad about what happened 4 years ago.
~Flashback~
"Kari, how could you," asked T.K. "My brother?"
"I'm sorry T.K., I love him," Kari sobbed. She knew that this was hurting him. But she couldn't help her feelings. She had been in love with Matt for awhile now.
"But I love you."
"I love you too, but just not the same way you do about me."
~With Matt and Tai~
"She's my SISTER!!" Tai yelled as he swung his fist towards the blonde rockstar. Matt fell to the ground as the hit connected with his face.
"Look, Tai, I care about her, and she cares about me," he stood back up and dodged another punch from the furious brunette. "Now, I now that maybe we shouldn't have kept it a secret, but we knew that you would react this way."
"Damn straight!! I don't want you to ever see her again. And we are through. I don't want to ever see you again!!"
"Tai..."
"Get out of here!" And with that the young carrier of friendship walked away.
~a month later~
"You want me to do what?" Kari asked Angel. Him and her other brothers had come to Japan for her graduation. She had told them about what had happened, and now neither, T.K., Matt, or Tai would talk to her. And she couldn't take it any more. And Angel had just provided a way for her to get away.
"I want you to move to L.A. with us," he repeated. He wanted to help her, and also he had missed the first 15 years of her life and now he wanted to spend time with her.
"I-I don't know what to say."
"You don't have to decide anything yet, just think about it. We'll be leaving right after your graduation." She nodded. "I have to go. Who knows what your brothers are doing to the motel room." Kari smiled at this.
"I'll let you know something." Angel nodded and left her on the balcony of her apartment. Maybe this won't be so bad, she thought. Tai and TK will be able to forgive Matt, without me reminding them why they are mad at him in the first place.
~2 weeks later~
Kari stood at the terminal gate where she was meeting her dad. She was thinking of the people she was going to miss in America. But her leaving was for the best. She hoped that they would get their letters that she asked her mom to give to them. Hopefully they can patch things up with each other.
"Kari?" She turned around and saw that Angel and his sons were all waiting for her.
"I'm coming," she gave her ticket to the stewardess.
"Enjoy your flight miss," she said.
"Thanks," she boarded the plane. She found her seat beside T.J. She leaned her head back against the seat, ready for sleep.
"Ladies and gentelmen," the captain said over the intercom. "Please turn off all electronics, and fasten your seat belt, we are getting ready for take off." Kari fastened her buckle and a few minutes later she felt the plane move, then go up in the air. All the while she never noticed the two men, one blonde and the other brunette, banging on the windows of the airport trying to get her attention.
A new life awaits me,she thought as she put her headphones on and closed her eyes. Maybe I should get a makeover when we get there. And with that she was asleep.
~End of flashback~
Jason shook his head. "She went out with this guy for about a year, then she moved in with him. She thought that he was some knight in shining armor or something. Well, after about 6 months, Kari came by and she had these bruises on her arm, and when we asked about them, she got mad and told us to mind our own business."
"But if she's half-vampire then why did she let him do that to her?" Asked Yolie.
"This was before she found out. But anyway, we knew what was happening," he clenched his fist and his green eyes turned golden brown, and fangs were starting to show. "But we didn't do anything, and that bastard almost killed her."
Angel put a hand on his oldest shoulder to calm him. "But thanks to Spike, he didn't. And come to find out this guy was a evil and he knew what Kar was, and he wanted to destroy her before she became something powerful. But luckily he he didn't succeed. And we destroyed him."
"Who was this guy?" Mimi asked.
"His name was Michel Williams."
"C'mon Hik," Spike said as he pushed back some limbs and held them back for Kari
"I'm coming," she said walking past him. She bent over and put her hands on her knees panting. "I think I need a break."
"Another one? We just had one 5 minutes ago."
She sat down on a fallen tree trunk. "I know, but I just feel weak. And I hate it."
Spike put his hand on her forehead. "You are feeling a bit warm, Love."
"I am?"
"Yep," he lifted her up bridal style. "C'mon we need to get you somewhere where you can lay down."
"I can walk you know?" She said. She put her arms around his neck as he started running.
"Yeah, but this is faster." She smirked. "Plus I like carrying you." She rolled her eyes.
"Have you noticed that we haven't meet any digimon around here?"
"Maybe they are sleeping?"
"I doubt it. Spike look out!!" She yelled as an red laser beam shot towards them. Spike fell backwards protecting Kari from the fall.
"Impressive," said a dark voice chuckling. They turned to see Myotismon.
"Myotismon?" Kari whispered eyes wide. "I we got rid of you!"
He laughed at that. "Kari,dear, don't you remember that digimon don't really die."
"Well, then maybe we should delete you for good then."
"How are you going to do that? You aren't even in full health, and without your digimon." He laughed again. "You know why you are weak?" She just glared at him. "No? Well, let me tell you. It's because Native Forest makes holy creatures weak. And you being the carrier of Light, that makes you a holy creature. But I guess it won't work all the way, because of your other side. But enough of this. I'm just going to kill you know, so you won't be a bother Lighting," he moved his hand like he was welding a whip and a beam of red came at Kari and Spike.
"Dread Fire!"A line of dark fire deflected the attack.
"What!?" Myotismon yelled.
"Darkrizamon," Spike said as a dragon-like digimon with fire all round his body, came from the trees.
"Hey," he said. "Thought you might need a hand."
"Perfect timing."
"What's this?" said Myotismon. "You think you have a chance against me?" He laughed. "How pathetic."
"Lighting paw!!" There was a white flash as Myotismon was hit in the face. The ball of white back flipped and landed a few feet away from him and in front of the vampires. "Long time no see."
"Gotomon!!" Kari yelled.
"You incolent little cat. I'm going to get rid of you once and for all."
"Not if we can help it," said Kari getting to her feet. "Gotomon, you ready?"
"I was born ready." A light surrounded the cat digimon. "Gotomon digivolve to.....Angewomon." When the light faded an angel was in the place of Gotomon. She brought her hands together and a ray of light formed. "Heaven's light." The light hit Myotismon and knocked him back. "Come on guys we need to be gone when he gets back up."
"Right," said Spike. He picked Kari back up, but Angewomon took saying it would be faster if she took her partner. Which he agreed, then him and Darkrizamon started running as Angewomon flew over head.
"So where are we headed?" Angewomon asked Kari, when they were out of dangers way.
"Digitamamon's Diner. We are meeting the others there." Angewomon nodded and continued flying. "What's happened here? I thought Myotismon was destroyed."
"We did too, but a few weeks ago he appeared with human, and they began taking over making things dark. Luckily they haven't reached everywhere yet."
"Human? What human?"
"He calls himself Michel. Kari?" Kari's face turned pale as a white piece of paper when she heard the name. "What's wrong."
"We need to hurry. I have a really bad feeling." The angel nodded and flew faster.
