I'm sorry I couldnt get any chapters up at the beginning of April like I said. I went to visit some family over Spring Break. Turns out they dont have Internet in the middle of no where. But i still wrote the chapters and im uploading them now. Hope you enjoy
The cool sea breeze blew through the Odaiba Harbor where the carnival was being held. The Digidestined could see the lights and music playing even thought they were still a block away. When they arrived, the Digimon were more excited because carnivals were new to them and didn't know exactly what it was.
"So guys, what do you want to ride first?" Ken asked everyone after he and Davis had paid their way in.
"I wanna ride the cotton candy first!" Demiveemon said excitedly
"Demiveemon, I've already told you that cotton candy isn't a ride, its junk food," Davis replied.
"Can we get eat cotton candy first? It sounds good." Wormmon added
"We can get some later," Ken told the Digimon.
"Yeah, I wanna ride some rides first." Yolei said.
And so they did. They rode on every ride that the carnival had. The only one they hadn't tried yet was the Ferris wheel, which they were saving for last. They started playing some of the carnival games. Ken had won Yolei a stuffed bear by winning at some mind game that Davis failed miserably at. Davis didn't even know they had mind games at carnivals. Demiveemon and Wormmon had overloaded on cotton candy, which they seemed to have a new obsession for it. The group had decided to split up; Ken and Yolei went to get ice cream while Kari and Davis kept walking around. Davis was trying to hide the annoyance he was getting because he couldn't seem to win any carnival games.
"These games are all rigged," Davis told her as he had lost yet another game.
"Then why do you keep playing them?" Kari asked, slightly amused.
"I am giving them good business, besides I want to win you something," Davis replied, causing Kari to blush.
"Hey you, yes you with the goggles. Step right up and play," called out a carnival man, jumping in front of them. He sounded quite excited, but Davis figured it was just part of his job to sound like that.
"What do I have to do?" Davis asked.
"Just take this hammer and try to ring the bell. You ring the bell, you win! You can win something for your lovely girlfriend here. You look like a tough lad, I'm sure you can do It." the carnival man continued, the same excited tone in his voice.
"Well I am pretty strong," Davis said as he paid the man and took the hammer from him.
"Ladies and Gentleman, gather round. We have a challenger. This young hero shall try to prove his strength and win his fair lady's heart," the man called out, grabbing the attention of several passer-bys.
'Great," Davis thought. 'Just what I wanted, everyone watching me. I hope I can win this, otherwise I will look really stupid.'
Davis weighed the hammer in his hands, and then slowly stepped up to the circle the small crowd had made to watch. Davis walked over to where the tower was and looked at it for a minute.
'That is a tall tower. I hope that little metal thing (A/N: I have no idea what it is called) is feeling extra jumpy, that bell is pretty high up and isn't going to ring itself,' Davis thought to himself.
Davis pulled the hammer over his head, holding it with both hands. With all his might he swung it over his head and slammed it down onto the rubber target. The little piece of metal shot up the tower and flew right into the bell. The bell made a ringing sound and everyone broke out into applause. One man even came up patted Davis on the back.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, our young hero has proven his strength. Pick out your prize young man," called out the man working the game.
Kari gave Davis a tight hug when he told her she can pick which one she wanted. She decided on a giant stuffed frog.
"Young man, may I ask how old you are?" the man who worked there asked Davis.
"I'm 14, why?" Davis replied.
"You have a right strong boyfriend," said the worker to Kari.
"What do you mean, it's just a game," Kari said.
"I will tell you this; this is the one game at this carnival that is not rigged. I have been working this game at this traveling carnival for many years. No one under the age of 17 has been able to win until now." He whispered to the two Digidestined.
They walked away from him as he stepped away and started booming out, asking for more challengers.
"Davis, did you cheat?" Demiveemon asked him.
"No, I didn't cheat, what gives you that idea?" Davis replied
"That man said no one under 17 has won before, and you're clearly under 17," Gatomon said.
"Thanks for the faith in me guys. I guess I am just a beast," Davis said, putting his hand behind his head.
"I knew you could do it Davis," Kari said, causing Davis to look away, attempting to hide his reddening face.
"So what do you want to do now?" Davis asked her.
"Umm, do you wanna ride the Ferris wheel now?" She asked in return.
"The lady wishes to ride the Ferris wheel, to the Ferris wheel we shall go," Davis said, trying to sound proper.
"I realize that man called you a hero and all, but I think this is a little overboard," Kari replied in a joking manner.
"Hero? I thought he sounded more like a butler," Gatomon said.
"Perhaps I should change my name to something like Jenkins or Wadsworth," Davis said, trying to look as serious as possible.
They all started laughing as they got to the Ferris wheel and got in line. The line went rather quickly and they were soon seated and began ridding to the top. The ride started and stopped a few times to let more people on. Davis and Kari were coming down when they spotted Ken and Yolei waiting for them at the bottom.
"Hey Kari, you still over there?" Davis asked.
The stuffed frog was sitting between them and was large enough to hide each other.
"Yeah, I love this frog, but not at the moment. It's way too big."
"I got an idea. KEN HEADS UP!" Davis yelled, throwing the frog off the Ferris wheel and down to his friend.
Unfortunately, Davis's aim was off. Ken had his arms outstretched to catch it, but Davis's aim was pretty bad unless he was kicking a soccer ball. Ken looked to his right to see an 8 year old boy standing there when suddenly a stuffed frog landed on the boys head, causing him to fall to the ground. Ken looked shocked for a second before quickly grabbing the stuffed frog off the poor kid. The boy stood up, looking slightly dazed for a minute. Ken apologized and handed the boy 5 dollars, telling him to go get some cotton candy. Meanwhile, Davis and Kari were now at the very top of the Ferris wheel. They were overlooking the bay and the setting sun over the ocean horizon.
"It's beautiful up here," Kari said amazed
"Yeah, it is pretty sweet isn't it?" Davis said.
They looked into each other's eyes for a moment, before both slowly leaning in for a kiss. Their lips were only a few inches apart when something blue appeared between them. Demiveemon had jumped up while Gatomon laid on the floor of the Ferris wheel carriage.
"More cotton candy! More cotton candy!" Demiveemon was yelling.
Gatomon looked at Kari and said, "I couldn't hold him down any longer."
Kari couldn't help but laugh at the scene that played out before her. Gatomon looked very sorry, while Davis was shaking Demiveemon violently. Davis finally let Demiveemon go and looked to Kari.
"Sorry about Demiveemon ruining the moment," Davis said, looking apologetically.
"It's ok. We can try again," Kari replied.
They both leaned again, this time without having to worry about Demiveemon.
"Sorry guys, ride is over," said the guy working the Ferris wheel just before they kissed.
"This cannot be happening, give us one more ride around." Davis said through gritted teeth.
"Sorry Romeo, other people want to ride," he said simply.
They got off the ride and walked over to meet Yolei and Ken. Yolei handed Kari the stuffed frog Davis had thrown overboard.
"Why is there some dirt on this?" Kari asked them.
"Davis's aim was off, about gave some poor kid a concussion or something," Yolei replied
They all broke out into laughter. They decided to walk around the harbor before they went home. Ken and Yolei were sitting at a table, watching Hawkmon and Wormmon trying to play rock, paper, and scissors. Needless to say it wasn't going very well. Veemon and Gatomon were sitting on the roof of a bait shop for fishermen, talking about Gatomon relationship with Patamon. Gatomon told Veemon that they liked each other and that there was a Digimon out there for Veemon. Davis and Kari were walking down the pier.
"You know, I didn't think you wanted to come tonight at first. I thought you would have wanted to go with TK," Davis said truthfully.
"Why would you think that?" Kari asked.
"Well since I joined the Digidestined, I've always heard things about you and TK; everyone thinks you guys are perfect for each other."
"Don't worry about it, TK and I have already talked about it and we decided it's what everyone else wants and not what we want. We are just really good friends. Besides, I kinda like this one soccer player guy, he is kind of a goggle head," she replied, grabbing his hand.
Davis held it in his hand, as they kept walking. They reached the end of the pier and stopped.
"Third time's the charm?" Davis said.
For the third time that night, the two Digidestined leaned in have their first kiss with each other. It would be Kari's first kiss, but not Davis. He had kissed this one girl in Shinjuku, but only because his cousin Kazu dared him, so Davis didn't really count that. They were so close that Davis could smell her minty breath. They were only an inch apart when water exploded behind them. Kari pulled away before they could kiss to see what had happened.
"I hate my life," Davis muttered under his breath.
Davis turned at the explosion to see a fog forming where the explosion had just happened.
A Digimon was bio-emerging.
Poor Davis, still didn't get his kiss after 3 tries, I'm sure it's bound to happen eventually though. Now I know this is a Daikari, but for the Digimon, i will be making this a PataGato for my friend Lord Pata. Dont worry,Veemon will get his own Digimon girl later on.
