We Love Like Vampires

Tk sat down on his bed, throwing a bag of chips at Willis who was sitting on the floor, "This is stupid!"

"What is?" Willis asked him.

"Girl talk, I mean really. What is it really? They end up telling us the same things anyway!" Tk exclaimed.

"They just think it is because it's just the two of them, a private conversation they can enjoy." Willis said in between taking bites out of the chips.

"How do you know this...?"

"Dude, I live with Kari." Willis said, as though it was obvious.

"I wish there was a way I could change everything from the beginning… the first time I saw Kari when she got back from America… maybe some things would be different." Tk said, lying down on his pillow.


"So dude, how are things between you and Autumn going?" Davis asked Tk (Autumn is Tk's current girlfriend).

"Pretty good, tonight we're going to hang out after supper. I'm taking her to the movies." Tk replied.

"Oh, well. Are we still all going to your house after school though?" Davis wondered.

"Of course, I've got everything ready. We're going to visit the Digital World, then head over to BYOA (Best Yogurt of All)." Tk said, "My treat."

"Class, today we have some new students. They're names are Kato Wallace and Yagami Hikari. Please introduce yourselves." Mrs. Ito said, opening the door to let the first one inside.

His smiled at the class warmly, speaking in perfect Japanese, "My name is Kato Wallace, but I prefer to be called Willis. I've lived in America my whole life, but I'm kind of a super genius."

"Oh god damn! It's Willis!" Davis yelled out, "Bro man! Come sit over here, it's an open seat."

Mrs. Ito went towards the doors and opened it again, "Come on dear, it's your turn… oh it's not that scary… you'll get along great with them… no it's fine… are you sure? Well at least say hello first, I have a nice desk at the front of the class you can grab once you get back from the nurse."

Slowly, a taller girl with long brown hair, her bangs clipped to the side by a red hair clip walked inside slowly. Tk and Davis sat up a bit straighter and Autumn watched her boyfriend in amazement. The girl smiled, "My name is Yagami Hikari… I like to be called Kari though. I used to live in Japan but because of… health issues in the family we moved to England… then to France… but later, because of deeper health issues we moved to America where I met Willis. We then decided to come to Japan and finish our years here. Umm… bye."

Davis turned towards Tk, "Dude… do you know who that is…?"

Autumn listened in as Tk answered, "It's her."

Willis broke the silence, "It's Kari. She missed you guys."

"I think we figured that much out." Davis said, glaring at Willis.

"Wait… Kari… THEE Kari… you said she was gone for good TK." Autumn frowned, she waited for a reply but nobody answered her. They all talked about KARI. AHH!

10 minutes later, Kari came into class. All the students looked up as she slowly entered, her face was pale, and it looked as though she had a cold sweat going on. Tk and Davis waved as her; she smiled and waved back before slumping into the designated seat up front.



"Hey, Davis!" Tk yelled, running up to his buddy, "Have you seen Autumn or Kari?"

"Well, I saw Autumn heading into the girl's bathroom." Davis said.

"SHIT!" Tk exclaimed, running down the hallway. He stood in front of the girl's bathroom for a second contemplating on what to do before charging in. He saw Kari lying on the ground in a pool of blood, Autumn was standing over top of her, and her face was pale, "What happened!"

"Tk! I don't know what happened! I came in here to go to the bathroom, I went into the stall. Kari was standing at the stall. I heard this big smack, thinking she just slammed the door I came out of the stall and I see on the floor surrounded in blood." Autumn explained, bawling her eyes out.

"Alright stop your crying and find a teacher. Tell them to phone an ambulance, but don't tell them that there is blood." Tk explained.

"But there is blood Tk!" Autumn cried.

"LISTEN TO WHAT I SAY!" Tk yelled, Autumn nodded and ran out of the bathroom crying.

Tk look down at Kari and shook his head, he was amazed. Her body was sucking up the blood somehow… the floor was still stained, but there was no trace of blood. Maybe he could say that she had a really bad nose bleed… would he have to mop up the blood stains himself before Autumn got back? But yet… to his amazement once more, tiny little creatures began appearing out of thin air and starting cleaning up the mess. Taking Kari's clothes and bleaching everything. Soon, Kari was completely clean. She looked like a quiet angel.



2 hours later the doctors appeared from Kari's room at the hospital and explained what had happened, "Apparently Ms Yagami was suffering from a loss of blood. Although she had the perfect amount of blood in her body, it seemed as though it had fixed itself in a matter of minutes. It's a miracle really. We actually found some other things on her body. Tiny scars that looked like bites on her skin, there were many around her body. It seemed like some had re-opened. Now are you sure that you kids don't know what happened?"

Tk and Autumn shook their heads, this was weird Autumn thought. This Kari, who was she and what was she doing here?

"Tk... The reason I left Japan was because my eating disorder got worse. But in England, it had gotten better, but it soon got worse. We moved to France and I was encountered by some type of creatures, they were not Digimon. They said they would help me stop if they house my body. The bleeding started happening so my parents moved us to America, those doctors couldn't figure out what was wrong. We decided to come back to Japan so I could live my life." Kari explained.

"You sold your soul?" Tk asked.

"Pretty much… and also… your girlfriend Autumn… knows what is going on with me as well. Somehow she knows about everything. She is much smarter than you think she is." Kari explained.



"I have to find Kari!" TK exclaimed, falling off the couch.

"Dude, it's 3 in the morning!" Davis exclaimed, groaning and rolling over.

"Dude, it's my house. I can leave when I want, just stay here." Tk said, grabbing his jacket from the closet and running out the door.


He arrived at Kari and Willis' house around 3:10… he stood outside the door. Pondering on what he was going to do. He was about to knock when the door opened and Kari appeared. She looked surprised. TK let out a small sigh; she seemed really pale, just like in his dream when she was lying on the floor, close to dead. But for some reason, when she saw him her face began to fill with colour. He smiled, "Kari your still okay."

"What are you talking about?" Kari wondered.

"Kari… is it true? You've stopped dealing with Anorexia?" Tk asked.

Kari nodded slowly, "What are you getting at?"

"So, is it true that the reason your cured is because you're under control of some type of evil demon spawn?" Tk asked.

Kari stood there stiff as a rod, "How—you—you don't know what you're talking about."

Tk frowned, "The Kari I know doesn't lie to me. If you tell people, we'll be able to help you."

She started to cry, "Tk, I don't know what to do!"

He brought her close to his chest, "It's fine, don't worry. We're here for you."
