Chapter Six: Dreams and Other Late Night Activities
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In T.K. and Kari's tent ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
T.K. was roused from his sleep by Kari's arm smacking him in the stomach.
Kari was having a bad dream. In it, she saw Myotismon's face stretching down from a pale-blue popcorn pattern ceiling. She was tossing and turning, trying to get away, but she couldn't move she just stayed there as the face laughed at her. But then, she heard T.K.'s voice, faint, in the background, calling her name. It got louder and louder, and then a shining arrow pierced the face, causing it to shatter. She woke with a start.
"Kari, are you okay?" T.K. had been shaking her arm as she tossed and turned, growing pale.
"Oh, T.K." The girl grabbed her friend around the middle, sobbing into his shirt.
"It's okay, it was just a dream. It's all right." He patted her back.
"I…-sob- saw…saw…Myotismon. He was leering down at me. I couldn't move. He kept laughing until I heard your voice and his face shattered. It was so scary."
"It's all right. It was just a nightmare. Those stories weren't real. They were just stories. They were supposed to scare you. Darn Matt, he always knows just what to do to make someone unhappy. Though he can come in handy sometimes."
"Thanks, T.K. You always know how to make me feel better." She gave T.K. a soft kiss on the lips.
"Any…anytime." T.K. fell onto the ground where he slumbered. Kari slipped back to dreamland, were thoughts of her brother, Gatomon and mainly T.K. dominated.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In Tai and Sora's tent ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sora wasn't having any better dreams than Kari had been. She was kneeling on the ground, sobbing as she saw Tai's limp body hanging above the car. She turned to run, but saw the murderer, his sky-blue eyes flashed under the hood, as he raised the wicked blade.
Tai was awakened by Sora's sobs, and a faint murmuring of `Tai, no, please, not Tai….' It went on and soon Tai was trying to wake his sleeping girlfriend. "Sora, Sora wake up. Please Sora."
Her scarlet eyes fluttered open and tears filled her eyes as she saw Tai. "Oh Tai!" She flung herself upon him, crying into his shirt. "You…you were de…de…dead."
"It's okay, Sora. I'm alive and well. Let me guess, it was like my story. I knew I shouldn't have told that one. It always scared Kari. I was just trying to retain my image of bravest. I'm sorry."
"It's okay, Tai. You didn't mean to. It's all Matt's fault. He was the one who suggested scary stories. You should be mad at him not you're self. I could never be mad at you. You're such a could Teddy Bear."
"Just call me your Tai Bear. Hey, I've got an idea." Tai immediately zipped his and Sora's sleeping bags open and zipped them back together. "There, a double bed." Tai chuckled.
"And the point is?"
"If you get cold or scared, just crawl up next to me. Unless you don't like me anymore." Tai pouted and sniffled a little.
"I still like you. I just wanted to know why you did that."
"Well, know you do."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 20 minutes later ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I'll be right back." Tai unzipped the flap of his tent, climbed up the cliff, and yelled out, "I AM THE LUCKIEST MAN ALIVE!" His words echoed along the canyon.
"I could debate that." Matt had walked towards Tai.
"So could I." Izzy came from the other direction.
"You mean, you both…? With Mimi? …" Tai pointed at Izzy. "…And Jenn?" Tai pointed to Matt. The two other boys nodded. "Just now?" They nodded again. "Jeeze, well, at least I'm not the only one."
"All I can say is…wow. Mimi is one fine creature." Tai and Matt nodded in agreement. "So was that your first time Matt?"
"Well, um…yeah."
"I know it wasn't yours, Tai."
"What are you talking about Izzy?" The three had started walking down the cliff.
"Did you ever wonder what was on the tape?"
"I just knew it was embarrassing, I didn't know what?"
"Well, you at least got Sora's shirt off. I saw that. But you were both pretty drunk. You both drank four between you. And you had three Matt. I was the only one who didn't."
"Even Kari." Tai's eye started to twitch.
"Blame Matt, he was the one who brought the beer."
"Matt! Why I…." Tai never got to finish.
Just then, three seducing voices rang out. "Tai Bear!", "Mattie!", "Kou- kun!"
Tai jabbed Matt in the chest. "I'll deal with you later." Tai sprinted off towards the tents.
"Why'd you have to tell him it was me?" Matt raced off to the tents.
"This has been one of the best nights ever." Izzy ran off too.
Tai sat down by the camp fire where most of the others, excluding those who did more than sleep *ahem*. "Man! That was the best night of my life!"
Sora walked from the tent and sat down on Tai's lap. "Hey, Tai-Bear." Some of the others exchanged confused glances.
"Hey, Beautiful." Tai wrapped his arms around Sora's waist and kissed her.
"Um, are we missing something?" Ken arched an eyebrow.
"Well, maybe."
"Oh, were you the one who yelled `I'm the luckiest man in the world'?" Yolei questioned.
"Actually, he said `I'm the luckiest man alive', not `in the world'."
"Hello, Izzy. Or should I say `Kou-kun'?" Tai snickered after his own comment.
"Eh, heh, heh." Izzy put his arm around the back of his head.
"Actually, that name is reserved for me only." Mimi wrapped her arm around Izzy's shoulders.
"Okay, I'm certain we're missing something."
"--Sigh--, you're right, T.K. Um, male members of the Digidestined, follow me." Sora removed herself from Tai's lap as he stood up. "Izzy, you too. You can make-out with Mimi later." Izzy turned red at Tai's comment. The `men' walked into the woods.
"Tai, what about Matt?"
"He can find out himself."
"What are you two talking about?"
"-Sigh-- all right, Ken, and the rest of you, Matt, Izzy, and me, well, we did a little more than sleep last night."
"You mean…."
"That's right, Cody. Izzy scored with Mimi, Matt scored with Jenn and I scored with Sora, twice. Very nice night."
"You scored twice?!"
"Yeah, right after I got back to the tent."
"You guys weren't the only ones." Everyone stared at Davis. "Well, I didn't score, but I got Kelly's shirt and bra off."
"Eh, it's a start."
"YOU GUYS COMIN' BACK?" Sora and Mimi called out to the woods.
"WE'LL BE BACK IN A MINUTE!" Tai and Izzy called out to the campsite.
"So, anybody else do something?"
"Well, I declared my love for Mari." Joe started to blush.
"I meant physical things. Like getting the shirt off, for example."
"No." All but Davis, Tai and Izzy said.
"Okay, oh, and I'll have to thank Matt for suggesting scary stories. That's what got it goin' on!"
