Chapter seven- understanding the problem, continued confusions.
Staying with Yolie always tiered her out. She always had a ton of things planned out for them to do, one of which involved Kari turning off her phone. That annoyed Kari, she wanted to be able to answer in case Matt called, but her phone did ring constantly.
Yolie sat on her floor; she had decided to help Kari figure out what to name her baby. Some of the names Yolie wanted were strange. Like: count Murdock or sir shire. Kari would not name her baby count or sir anything. It was weird, since the child would have no royal lineage in his blood, therefore was un-deserving of those titles. Not to mention the fact that kids would beat him/her up on the playground.
Kari sprawled out on the floor, looking at a magazine. She didn't even know the title of said magazine; she was trying to waste time. Her mother kept assaulting her thoughts. Her funeral was coming up in a few days.
Kari still couldn't imagine what reason her mother had for killing herself. Kari knew her mother was pained by there fathers death but she wasn't that pained… was she?
Yolie waved her hand in front of Kari’s face. “Oh, yeah?” Yolie smiled at her.
“Thinking about Yamato?” She asked
“No, I was thinking about my mother”
“Really?”
Kari looked at her friend “I don’t know, something about it seems weird. Something is wrong Yolie, I can feel it. And I am NEVER wrong about these things” she said.
“Like what?”
“Im not sure yet, I will tell you when I know”
<Hr>
Matt was still angry. He had been so close…so damn close, and Yolie had to go and tear her away! He sat heavily on the couch.
He didn't know why, but he felt compelled to look at that book ‘the silver lining’ he knew, good and well he had never seen that book before. So he opened it to page one.
The silver lining: chapter one: year of the vampire
He stared at it. ‘What the…’ but he continued to read
When I was a little girl, I was attacked. I was walking home one night a little past dark and I was attacked by a vampire, he told me, that if he spared me then he would be reincarnated as my great-great-great grand-son.
I was little, and I did not want to die. So I told him that he could have my great-great-great grand-son.
I was stupid.
Now, almost three hundred years later he should be coming. I have spent my entire life trying to find a way to stop him.
And I have died in vain.
And that was all it said. Matt rolled his eyes “what a waste of a read.” He said, but before he could toss it back on the table, he noticed something.
Written by: Hikari Yagami-
There was a scribbled number beside the name. “What?” he asked himself. There had to be a mistake, Kari would never write this crap! But his heart was pounding in his chest. He breathed, trying to slow his pumping adrenalin. This was wrong, it had to be, but there it was in plain English. Her name.
He grabbed the book and left the house. Maybe he could find a copy in the library. Or at least some information.
<Hr>
T.k sat in his room. Davis should be on his way by now. His plan was going great. Davis thought T.k liked him, but he was just a pawn in T.k’s plan. He had to have Kari, she was a part of him and soras plan.
She was the main pawn, the queen if you must. And to win the game, all he had to do was kill the king. He smiled.
<Hr>
Kari felt her heart begin to beat loudly. She looked around. Why was she so edgy today? What was happening? She had felt this way, once before when she was in America with T.k and Willis needed her help. She had a feeling, though; it wasn't Willis who needed help this time.
The baby inside of her gave a nice kick. “OW..” she held her stomach.
Matt ran down the stairs of her apartment. He stopped when he saw Davis. “What do you want?” he asked.
Davis just stared at him “im here for Kari”
“Kari isn't her, go away, im kind of busy” he said, but Davis wouldn't let him off the stairs.
“No” he said. Matt's eye twitched
“What was that, punk?” Matt said through gritted teeth.
“Kari is mine, stay away from her or I will have to kill you” Matt stared at him, irridiculously
.
“Kill me?” what the hell was wrong with these people? Davis had NEVER been aggressive, well not as far as to kill someone. First T.k went insane, now Davis. Was there something Matt was not informed of? Some kind of disease, the disease of idiot’s maybe?
Matt shoved Davis out of the way “what is your problem daisuke!” he yelled. Davis just stared at him, before pulling out a gun. “Oh for the love of…” Matt stopped for a moment. Did Davis really have it in him to kill Matt? And why was matt so stupid as to not see this one coming.
<Hr>
Yolie’s doorbell rang, the ring echoed through the house and into Kari’s ears. “I will get it” she said, standing up and walking out of the room.
Yolie didn't move. But then she though about what Kari had said, about something being wrong. So she decided to follow her to the door.
Kari reached for the doorbell, her fingers just inches away before a giant shock ran through her entire body. She cried out, and pulled away from the door. Shaking her hand and trying to get the pain to go away.
“What’s wrong?” Yolie asked when she saw her friend wincing.
She again reached for the door, and was hit with another electric bolt. “Would you…get the door? I hit my hand on the handle pretty hard” she lied.
Yolie pulled the door open. To Kari’s surprise, Brittany stood there.
“Hello…?” Yolie said, wondering why the head cheerleader was at her house, or how Brittany even knew where she lived.
“Kari!” she hugged Kari.
“Um, something I can help you with?”
“Oh, I am so happy you are safe. I got here in time.” She looked around. “Mind if I come in, its not safe here”
“Not safe?” Yolie asked, also confused.
“I don’t have time to explain!” she said, somewhat frantically. “Have you seen T.k, or Davis, or sora anytime soon?” Kari stared at her.
“Is this some kind of joke?” she asked, tempted to laugh in Brittany’s face.
“No” now it was Brittany’s turn to be confused “why would it be?”
“Sora is dead” Brittany laughed.
“You wish.” Kari just stared at her. Brittany, in Karis mind had officially just gone insane.
“They must have targeted someone else today…but who.” She looked at Kari “who is closest to you?”
“My brother Tai.” Kari said to her.
“No, he is safe”
“Safe from what!” Yolie asked, but, like last time Brittany ignored her.
“Who else?”
Kari took a minute to think “it would have to be Matt” she was buying into Brittany’s insanity, maybe this was what she had been sensing all day.
“Matt” Brittany turned, and took off running.
Yolie looked at Kari. “Do you have any idea what just happened?”
Kari shook her head “I think…” she paced back and forth “now I know something is wrong Yolie!” she said, but before she could worry about Matt, she had to take care of Takeru.
“Sorry Yolie, I have to go!” she said, then, like Brittany took off running.
“There all insane…” Yolie said, to herself now that she was all alone again.
Kari grabbed her phone. It rang. ‘Impossible’ she thought, she had turned her phone off. She answered it.
“Where are you?” the dark voice on the other end said.
“I don’t know what kind of sick game you are trying to play with me but this has to stop.”
“Only you can stop me….that is why I must have you!”
“What makes me so special?” she asked.
“Oh…you don’t know?” the voice laughed. “Three hundred and twelve years ago, your ancestor met a vampire. She didn't know it at the time, but she met the king of vampires.”
“King of…what?”
“VAMPIRES! Keep up!” it said “but the king was injured and dying, he needed time to re-coupe and he needed a new host. So he decided to implant himself in her bloodline, waiting for the opportune moment to re-appear.”
Kari shook her head. She was dreaming, she had to be! This was insane, it wasn't true…someone was just trying to scare her. “Stop!” she said “so…what does this have to do with me?” she asked “am I a vampire?”
It laughed again, a sinister bone chilling laugh “no. the vampire is” but her phone went dead. She threw it on the grass beside her; she was almost to T.k’s house anyway.
<Hr>
Matt stared at the gun “Davis, you don’t want to do this. Kari will never love you if you kill me” he said, trying to reason with the shaking boy. Davis began to lower the gun.
“DAISUKE, WAIT!” Brittany yelled, and Davis hand slipped.
BANG
Matt fell to the ground in a heap.
