Chapter 8

The entire group excused itself from the restaurant, paid for their meal, and apologized for TK. Allura said it was time for her to be going home, and left. The rest decided to go to Yolei's to wait for any news from Kovin.

They were kind of out of breath, because Yolei lived on the fifth floor and the elevator was broken. The four of them went up the stairs.

"You guys want a drink or something?" Yolei said with her head inside the fridge. "My mom and dad are at the store doing inventory tonight, so they'll be late."

"Actually, Yolei, I think I'm going to go home too. I really don't want to be around three girls, and well I promised Wormmon some stuff." Ken said, backing away.

"What stuff?" Yolei asked.

"You know, the stuff with the thing at the place." Yolei would have questioned him further but he was already out the door and down the stairs. Yolei, Kari and Kelryn went to her living room. Kelryn sat in the love seat, and Kari went to sit with her.

"Not in my house young lady," Yolei said, stopping Kari.

"You going to make me sit somewhere else?" Kari said. Yolei responded by pushing Kari on to the adjacent couch.

"There will be no all-girl loving in this house." Yolei said.

"What about you and Mimi?" Kari asked, disappointed.

"That's different."

"How is that different?"

"We didn't cause someone the need to have his carpets cleaned," Yolei said through clenched teeth.

"Will you stop worrying about that," Kelryn said. "It was just..."

"Shut up right now! I don't want to hear it." Yolei screamed.

"But it was just..."

"NO!"

"Just..."

"NO!" Yolei held her hands over her ears and waited of Kelryn to stop. She moved her hands away slowly.

"Coffee!" Kelryn said quickly. "I made pot of strong coffee but Kari gagged on it and spilled it.

"Oh, I guess that isn't that bad." Yolei was letting her breath come back to her, satisfied with the coffee answer. "Now, I'd like to talk with you two for a second. I have a few items I'd like to discuss. First, Eww!" Yolei was not trying to hide her disgust at all. "Second, Kari. Do you know how much TK really loves you? Do you know how hurt he was? I've seen the way the two of you look at each other. He loves you more than life itself. How could you do this to him? Or to yourself?" Kari was having the guilt trip of her life.

"And you!" Yolei turned her guns on Kelryn. "What right do you have to breakup a perfect relationship? TK treats her better than any guy I know. What right do you have to mess with that? Just to satisfy some sick desire?" Kelryn was laughing at Yolei.

"You have no idea how this actually works do you?" Kelryn stood, and went for her jacket. On her way out, she went to give Kari as goodnight kiss, but she shied away. Kelryn looked hurt, but didn't say anything more and left.

"Oh, god Yolei, what have I done?" Kari was down on the couch crying her eyes out. Yolei went and opened the patio door that led to the apartment's balcony.

"Its stuffy in here. Now Kari, its ok..." Yolei was cut off by a ringing phone. She went and answered it. "Yeah, I just opened it. Why?" Yolei turned to the balcony door when she heard flapping wings, she saw a burst of light, and Kovin fall on her balcony while Ozlimon rolled in through the door. She ran over to Kovin, while Hawkmon went to help Ozlimon.

"Got a bit tired flying, did we?" Hawkmon said in his strange British accent.

"Yeah, we searched everywhere. We can't find TK at all. We were trying to land on Yolei's roof but I was too tired and started to revert." Ozlimon explained. Yolei had helped Kovin to his feet, who just confirmed everything Ozlimon said.

"We can't find him, Kari. I hope you're happy." Kari was instantly in tears again. She was crying so hard she couldn't breathe right and was coughing. Gatomon was running her paw along Kari's hair trying to cheer her up. "We'll go out again. But Ozlimon needs rest and food. Where is he?" Yolei looked around but couldn't see Ozlimon or Hawkmon anywhere. Then see saw the fridge door open. The two birds weren't tall enough to be seen over the counter, but the door was. Hawkmon was letting Ozlimon eat some leftover birthday cake.

"That's my sister's!" Yolei screamed. "She'll kill me!" Yolei tried to stop Ozlimon, but he had not only eaten the cake, but taken a bite of the plate. "Anyway, why don't you take Aquilamon with you? When Ozlimon is ready again, just switch to him and send Hawkmon back here." Hawkmon readily agreed to that, and he was at the balcony's edge ready to digivolve. Yolei pointed her digivice at him, as he said the magic words.

Hawkmon digivolve to ... Aquilamon

The large bird was a bit cramped trying to stand on the balcony. But in no time Ozlimon and Kovin were on his back, and out the door. Kari ran out after them.

"Please find him, Kovin! Bring him back to me! Tell him I'm sorry!" Her voice trailed off as they climbed higher in the sky.

After about thirty minutes of flying, they had covered one third of Tokyo, when Ozlimon spoke up. "I think I'm feeling ready to take over now, Aquilamon. Thanks for the help." Aquilamon nodded. Ozlimon made a cannonball dive off Aquilamon out into space.

Ozlimon digivolve to ... Feamon digivolve to ... Talomon

The giant owl, complete with the red streaks down his feathers appeared in the sky. "I think Talomon will be better for the search." He said. "Aeromon was too big, and Feamon was too weak."

"Good thinking friend." Kovin made a jump off Aquilamon down to Talomon. They both waved at Aquilamon as he turned back towards Yolei's apartment. Kovin and his digimon were back on the case.

Kovin was trying to think it through logically. Where would TK have gone? His heart was broken, and he was publicly humiliated, and he was a shy kid, so he'd want to be somewhere alone and quiet. Probably dark, too.

"TK!" They both turned when they heard the familiar little voice of Patamon. "TK!" Patamon looked extremely tired.

"Patamon!" Kovin screamed at the little digimon below him. Patamon looked up but started to stumble in the air. Talomon easily caught him, and Kovin picked him up and set him in his lap. "Looks like you need a rest little guy. We're looking for TK too, so why don't you come with us?"

Patamon could barely talk he was breathing so hard. "I've been flying since TK ran out looking for him."

"It's alright buddy. We'll find him together."
