Demon: Hehe, well I finall got around to uploading it, it's been ready for...a while.

"I'm sure she has the hots for you." A dark haired boy said to his blonde friend. "Everyone but you can see it. Why else would she be so nice to you?"
"So girls can't be just friends?" Came the reply. They were referring to the brown haired girl sitting by the window chatting casually with her friends. "Besides she is totally out of our league. What do you think, Kouichi?"
"Kaira is just one of those people you can get to know easier than most." Kouichi replied after snapping out of his daydream. It'd been awhile since he'd come back from the digital world, which brought the discovery of his brother Kouji. "And I don't think she likes you that way. She seems to be one of those people who..."
He was cut off by one of the other boys. "I think your just saying that because you want her all to yourself."
"Who are you talking about?" A female said making them all jump, which made her laugh a bit. "Anyone I know?"
"Um," The other boys said not really knowing what to say. "I don't think so." Kouichi covered seeing the other boys weren't going to say anything anytime soon. "Is there something you want Kaira? Or are you just being friendly."
"Just interested. And I'm meant to give you this." She handed him a note. "It's from Nikki. I think she likes you. Anyways, I've got to go. So I'll talk to you later." She walked back over to friends who started giggling.
"I see now. You and Nikki." The dark haired boy smirked. "So you going to read it? Or will I have to take it from you?"
Kouichi sighed and opened the note with his name on it. It was one of those letters that you don't know whether to believe or not. Finally it got to the point of the whole letter. 'There's a party this weekend, and I was wondering if you'd go with me.' So I don't look like a total loser standing there watching all my friends party with someone. This was the most likely reason Nikki was asking. She was almost an exact copy of Zoë, not wanting to be a loner but constantly thinking she was better than everyone else.
Deciding that he didn't really want to go he pulled out a red pen and wrote a large 'NO' over the page before calling Kaira back over. "Why didn't Nikki ask face to face?" He asked handing over the paper which taken out of Kaira's hand by another boy.
"Don't tell me your going to go with HIM." He said to Kaira. "Cause babe you can do so much better."
"So are you asking me out or something?" She growled snatching the paper back. "Cause going out with you would be a major downgrade. No offence Kouichi." She walked off leaving the other boy shocked.
"Okay class." Their teacher said walking into the class. "Time to spilt you up into pairs for your science project..."
Later that Day
Kouichi met up with Kouji at a park while they waited for the others to arrive. "...I don't know what to do. And now I'm working on this project with..."
"Does she like you?" Kouji asked lying back and looking at the sky. "Cause if she does you'll stop going on about her."
"I don't know but her best friend apparently does." Kouichi sighed. "But I turned her down."
"Who did you turn down?" JP asked sitting down next to them. "Was she hot?"
"I guess. She asked me out a party we're having later on this week." Kouichi explained once again.
"But he wants to go with this one girl he think he can't have." Kouji said as Kouichi blushed. "And now he's working with her on this project thing."
"Ask her out then." Takoya said as he and Tommy walked up behind them. "Its all you have to do. What's her name anyway?"
"Kaira." Kouji said. "He's been obsessing over her for the last fifteen minutes."
"And I can just imagine mom when she finds out I have a crush on our neighbours daughter." Kouichi said sighing. "'I always knew you two would get together.' And then there will be the fact that our mom and her mom are like the best of friends, Kaira would find out in a matter of minutes."
The other boys started laughing. Kouichi had fallen, and fallen hard. Kouichi simply glared at the others. This what you get if you act sensitive. "I want to meet her." Kouji said smirking. "I don't know why you haven't introduced us yet."
Because everyone says you're the cute brother and she'd probably fall for you. "Because she's usually out when you come to visit." The older twin explained simply, hoping the fact he was lying would go unnoticed.
The longer haired brother raised an eyebrow in question "Really? Must just be unlucky..." he mused, choosing to ignore his twins sigh of relief.
"Unlucky? Hardly, I mean you're cute, smart and have a great ass." A female voice smiled, dropping onto the grass next to Kouji. Tommy went wide-eyed at that comment, as did Takoya, JP and Kouichi. Kouji was too busy trying to avoid the irritating blond to care what she'd said. "What female wouldn't want to meet you?"
"A lesbian." The largest of the group answered, earning a smirk from the helmet-wearing brunette. "No JP, I think he has that base covered too, I mean, look at the hair." Takoya laughed, "and honestly, he has a pretty girlish figure." The comment made all but Zoë and the aforementioned male laugh.
"Takoya, have you been checking me out?" the younger twin asked, freezing in the process of climbing one of the tall surrounding trees. All laughter stopped at this point as attention turned to Takoya, who looked like he was thinking of a reason for his comment. "Ah…it's just…I've seen several guys from our school checking you out when your back was turned." He lied quickly, hoping he wouldn't be caught out.
Kouichi looked at the other suspiciously before realising the truth, wow, I never noticed he swung that way. Though it does explain a few incidents… He shook his head, hoping to rid it of those horrid thoughts of his poor baby brother being cornered by the other male.
"Tommy! There you are! I've told you not to wander off like that!" a slightly annoyed voice called, running over to the group. Tommy turned and grinned sheepishly, "Sorry Yutaka, I just wanted to meet up with my friends. I guess I should have told you first."
His older brother sighed, "Well we have to get home, say goodbye to your friends then hurry up, we were meant to be home twenty minutes ago." Tommy laughed, "Later guys!" He called, running after his brothers retreating from.
"Later Tommy." The five replied, although Zoë couldn't figure out where Kouji had disappeared. "Kouji, where are you?" blond asked, glancing around quickly. She received no reply and sighed in defeat, "Ah well, since he's gone there's no reason for me to stay here. Bye Kouichi, bye Takoya." She smiled, winking at the two before walking off.
"Bye Zoë, see you tomorrow!" JP called, hoping to get some kind of acknowledgement from the blonde. She seemed oblivious to the fact he'd said anything as she disappeared around a corner.
"Is it safe to come down now?" a voice asked cautiously from somewhere above their heads. "Yea, she's gone, you can come down." The older twin sighed. Two minutes of rustling ensued, and finally Kouji dropped out of a tree.
Takoya laughed, "How you got up there in less than three minutes I'll never understand. What do you find so bad about her anyway?" A scowl formed on the longhaired teens' face, "Apart from the fact she's the worst thing since the combination of blue vein cheese, cabbage, brussel sprouts and silver beet?"
"You don't like your vegetables, do you little brother?" he emphasised the words 'little brother', purposely irritating the other further. What he didn't expect was to be tackled to the ground in a playful manner, where the two began to fight. Takoya grinned evilly and pounced on the older twin, soon beginning a three-way war.
JP debated joining in, and decided Takoya was interrupting a 'brotherly fight', and so grabbed the other brunette and pinned him to the ground by sitting on him. Soon the dust around the duo cleared, with Kouji clearly pinning his older half with a triumphant smile.
"You do realise what that looks like from this angle, don't you?" Takoya sniggered, several...wrong thoughts entering his mind. The twins' eyes widened in realisation and sprang apart, both landing roughly on their backsides. "Now that that's settled, GET OFF ME, JP!" the brunette yelled, struggling under the large boy.
Their 'manly silence' was broken when a rather annoying and childish tune began to play from Kouichi's pocket. His eyes widened as he pulled out his cell phone, which was currently blasting out the main Barney song (you know the one - 'I love you, you love me, we're a happy family with a great big hug and a kiss from me to you, won't you say you love me too'.)
Kouji began to laugh, "Big man aren't you, big brother." Kouichi merely glared at his brother. "I didn't choose it. Kaira must have done it last night." he said before answering the phone.
"Hello?"
"Kouichi I was wondering if you came home early tonight. Kaira coming over for the week. Her parent's are going away for the week so I told Tammy that she could stay with us."
Kouichi went pale. "Mom, why can't she go to Nikki's or something?" He half whined. "I beat she would rather stay with her."
"Kaira said you have a project to do with her and she agreed that it was a good idea. Invite your brother, he'd love to meet her."
"Kouji said he had a lot homework to do." Kouji blinked at the mention of his name.
"No I don't." He said loud enough for their mother to hear.
"Well that settles it." His mother said smugly from the other end of the phone. "I'll see you and Kouji in an hour. All right good-bye."
Kouichi sighed and hung up. His luck had gone from good to bad. So far his life kinda sucked. "Thanks Kouji." He growled changing the tone on his cell phone to one he preferred. "Now all three of us are staying at my house."
Everyone blinked. "All three of you?" JP asked. "Do you mean Kouji, yourself and your mom or Kouji, yourself and Kaira?" Kouji didn't need an answer. He already knew his brother was dreading the encounter more than ever, which puzzled him. Why doesn't he want me to meet her? Does he think I'll take her away from him or something?" All these questions were left hanging, when JP and Takoya started to talk about famous girls they thought were hot. Kouichi and Kouji started getting bored with the current conversation and decided to leave before it got out of hand.
"Why don't you want me to meet her?" Kouji asked stopping his older brother, once they were out of view and hearing distance from the others. "And don't say nothing, I know what your feeling at the moment and it's dread so spit it out." Kouichi blinked. He forgot about the whole 'Light and Darkness' thing (A/N why is darkness longer than light? Why couldn't be Lightness? On second thought...it doesn't sound right). But he still didn't want to tell him. Knowing that if he wanted Kouji off his back he would have to tell him...or lie.
"I just don't want you and Kaira to hate each other." He concluded. Kouji raised an eyebrow at him, not buying it in the least. "Do you think she'll like me more than you?" He asked and telling by Kouichi reaction he knew he'd guessed right. He started walking again as Kouichi fell into a steady pace next to him. "I'm not going to take her away from you. No matter how hot she is."
Kouichi blinked at his little brother. He seemed to acting like the older, over-protective brother now. "It's not that." Kouichi said, he was going to have to tell the truth now. "I don't want her to like you more than me."
The rest of the journey was very much silent between the two, until they came to a familiar house. It seemed a small group of people were there along with their mom. As the boys entered the house (apartment or whatever he lives in) their mother grabbed Koujis' arm as Kouichi smirked at what his little brother had been pulled into. I did warn him. He thought.
"Kouji, this is Tammy and Zeke Yomati and their daughter Kaira." She introduced. "And this is my youngest son Kouji." Kouji bowed politely. "Why don't you three go and watch TV or something, so we can talk." The three of them obeyed.
Kouichi sat down on a couch as Kouji sat next to him while Kaira sat in a chair across from them. "So what took you so long? I had to wait a whole..." She looked at her watch before looking back at them. "30 seconds for you." "Poor you." Kouichi smirked. "So, how's Nikki taking rejection?"
Kouji blinked. He felt like a stranger looking in from the outside (A/N Is that how it's said? 0.o Oh well). "Not so bad. She has already found someone else to go out with." Kouichi could tell Kouji was really confused so decided to change the subject. "Are you going to go to that party on Friday?" Kouichi asked the other male, who shock his head. Maybe I shouldn't have come here.
"We're going." Kaira's parents said from the door. "I expect you to be on your best behaviour and don't let the boys gang up on you, Okay? We'll see you in a week." Kaira hugged her parents before they left after brief good-byes. Moments later it looked to be the twins mom's turn. "I'm sorry but I was called into work. I hope I can trust you all to be on your best behaviour." She walked to the door as the teens followed. "I left money on the counter for pizza or something. Be good. I'll be back later on tonight." She soon left after her instructions had been given.
Next Day
Kouji had decided to go home after releasing that the other two were just going to do homework instead of having (as Kouji had put it) fun. But he had a strange feeling more happened when he wasn't around, like he was stopping them do other things. Things he was going to find out about.
It was a sunny Saturday morning and, as usual, he had nothing to do. He walked past an empty ally, which, for some reason, made his cell phone emit a lot of static. Shrugging it off as just his phone playing up he continued on. All of their phones had started to play up after going to the digital world. Didn't Kouichi say something about a party? His phone started to buzz as static reappeared on the screen. He pulled out his again and looked at the screen, only to see an image flash across the screen.
He suddenly felt himself being pulled into the ally he was standing in front of, by a large object. The air in his lungs being squeezed out of him slowly. The object pulled him into a large portal, much like the one leading to the digital world, as he struggled to get out of the creatures grip, but to no avail.
Later that day
The rest of the group were waiting at the park for the twins to arrive. "What do think that girl looks like?" JP asked, thinking back to the events of the afternoon before. "Kouichi seemed to be really...hooked on her." Zoë snorted and looked away. "She sounds like a stuck up slut who gets what she wants and the snap of her fingers." They all looked at her, confused.
"Kouichi doesn't seem to be a person who would be attracted to someone like that." Takoya reasoned. "Although I have heard people have fallen for the wrong type of person." Tommy blinked. "Shouldn't it be about how two people feel toward each other? No matter who they are?" No one knew what to say to the younger boy. It was true but at the same time, it didn't seem right. They were pleased to hear a weight drop down beside them, to distract them from the conversation.
"Sorry I'm late." Kouichi apologised before sighing. "Kaira made me help her with her homework." Zoë shot the group an 'I told you so' look, that confused Kouichi. "What did I miss?" he asked, blinking. Tommy got up and walked as far from Zoë as possible. "Zoë thinks your girl friend is a slut who gets what she wants when she wants it." Zoë glared at him, while Kouichi raised an eyebrow at the both of them. "I had to do it because I owed her a favour. And she's not my girlfriend."
"But you want her to be, right?" JP asked smirking at the other, who just looked away to hid the blush covering his face. "Have any of you seen Kouji?" He asked changing the subject. Takoya shook his head. "No. I thought he at your place."
"He got bored so went home." Kouichi said, blinking. Last night both Kaira and himself wanted to get that boring project done so they didn't have to do it at last minute. It was at this point Kouji declared that he was bored and went home leaving the two to continue with their work. "But he's usually the first to arrive out of us all." Zoë reminded them all. "And he doesn't like to be late, he's yelled at us for that too many times."
They were all snapped out of thought by someone dropping down next to Kouichi, making them all look up thinking it was Kouji. Instead they were all shocked to see a brown haired female. "What happened to you, Kouichi?" She demanded looking at him impatiently. "You said your would be home half an hour ago." They all looked at her. Confused by what she was saying.
"You know her?" Takoya whispered to the dark haired boy, who nodded slightly. "What are you doing here, Kaira?" He asked irritably. "That's her." Zoë laughed, as they all turned her gaze to her. "What about me?" Kaira growled. Zoë looked at the new girl, who was showing no signs she was confused. "Do you have something you'd like to explain to me, or are you a complete moron and laugh at people even though you know they could kick your ass?"
Zoë's glared at the new girl, looking ready to kill her. A trait the boys rarely saw in the girl. "Do you think you could really beat me in a fair fight? Cause if you do your sorely mistaken." Zoë stood up, followed shortly by Kaira as the boys started to back off. "I have no time for sluts such as yourself." She said turning to walk away. "I suggest you find yourself a new girl to hang out with. This one's too sluttly for your own good. See ya round boys." She added before walking off.
"The nerve." Zoë growled sitting back down. "Who does she think she is? I can't believe you'd want to date someone like her." Kouichi sighed, why did he always seem to end up things like this happening to him. Caught up between his friends and the girl he liked. "I like her." JP said suddenly. They all looked at him. "What? She seems the type who can look after herself, not to mention, she's hot."
Tommy being the youngest, couldn't understand it. "It was just a girl," he said looking around the group. "You'll understand soon enough." Takoya said lying back in the grass. "Damn. Kouji's taking way too long to get here." "Maybe he forgot." JP said, thinking though the possibilities. "Or has something important to do." they all looked at each other, before shrugging. Both could have been true.
"I'd better go before...ahh!" Kouichi feel onto his side as something felt like it was driving its way into his chest to his heart, as all their phones began to buzz with static. This was ignored, as everyone crowded around the boy. Not knowing what to do. "Call someone!" Zoë yelled at the boys. "Who!" Takoya snapped back.
While everyone was yelling at each other about what to do, a man stopped to see what we going on between the group, before noticing the boy on the ground. He pulled out his cell phone and called for an ambulance, which made its way to the site in a matter of minutes, now their being a small crowd trying to calm the boy. As soon as the got him into the ambulance, he passed out due to the pure pain that was surging though his body.
Hours later he awoke to white walls, white sheets, and white... well, everything. Well, they finally found a reason to though me in the loony bin. Kouichi thought forgetting about the events leading up to this. All he knew was that he was sore all over and feeling oddly sick. A tall dark male entered the room holding a clipboard, looking though the paper that it was holding.
"Ah, your awake." He said smiling. Kouichi resisted the urge to snap something back at him. "How are you feeling?" He asked continuing to smile at him. "Why am I here?" Kouichi asked knowing that 'how are you feeling was already answered on the paper in front of the man in the white coat. He simply blinked. "Don't you remember the pain your friends said you went though?"
It all started to come back to him. Well, the hospital was my second choice. "Kinda. My head hurts." He muttered as the doctor began to go over his vitals. "That should subside, but I'd like to keep you in for awhile so we can determine what the cause your pain was." He marked down something on his sheet of paper. "And your mother is on her way, there's also a young girl out in the hall, if you feel like seeing her."
Great. Zoë's here. He sighed but nodded as the man opened the door and left as the new female entered. But it wasn't Zoë. "Kaira. I thought you'd be with your friends or something." Kouichi was kinda shocked to see her here to say the least. Kaira hated hospitals ever since they were little. But this didn't seem like Kaira, she was acting different. She wouldn't look at him directly, but remand looking at her feet.
"Um, there's something I wanted to tell you..." She began. She was nervous and Kouichi knew it. "I just don't know how to say it..." "Just say it." Kouichi suggested watching her closely. "Your good at that." He gave her a reassuring smile when she looked up at him. "Promise you won't laugh." She half begged. He nodded, now more impatient than anything. "Okay, well the before this happened, when you were with that girl, I kinda felt something, and it hurt." Kouichi blinked. He had no clue what she was getting at. Sighing, she put it into terms he could understand. "I like you Kouichi, more than friends. That's why I feel jealous every time I see you with other girls."
Kouichi was shocked more than anything, but managed to keep it together enough. "I feel the same way," he said grabbing her hand, though it hurt...a lot. She sat down next to him, before pulled her into a soft kiss that seemed to last a blissful eternity. "What's going on here?" That is, until a female voice asked smugly, breaking the two apart.
Meanwhile Kouji POV
I was in so much pain. A mere hour ago they pushed something black into me. I could feel it directly piecing my heart. Though I couldn't do anything to stop them, there was too many of them, though I had put up a fight. I had no idea who they were, but they were big. I was starting to feel really cold, though I was sitting in the sun coming in from a bared, window. Maybe it had something to do with that spike they used on me.
I couldn't help but begin to think if anyone had noticed I was missing yet. Though I had a feeling something had happened to my other half. When they were doing that to me, I felt a strange sadness or guilt, as if I had pushed some of the pain I was going though onto him.
I sighed. I hoped I hadn't. I don't know what I'd do if I'd seriously hurt him. I leaned against the wall in the stone cell/dungeon I was in. A tingly pain (kinda like pins-and-needles) swept up my right arm, before covering the rest of my body. I closed my eyes, slowly falling into a light slumber. I needed rest. Though I wasn't sure why.
Back with the others
Kouichi's mom had arrived at the hospital to see her oldest son kissing her best friends daughter. Not really knowing what to say or do, she decided to leave it be and try and find out if her son was able to leave the hospital. But brought the subject up when she finally managed to get his doctor to release him an hour later. "So what are you going to do if it doesn't work out?" She asked as they sat in the car on the way back to their house. "Are you just not going to talk to each other or go back to being friends?" Kouichi looked at his new girlfriend. "What if we are meant to be together? Isn't it worth a try?" He asked.
He hadn't really been the sentimental type, but this was important. It was something he had wanted after meeting his younger brother. "Your 14. You have your whole life to discover that. If it's, as you say, fate, then you'll get another chance to be together." His mother was being deadly serious, making him wonder if something like this happened between their parents. Though they both knew she was right. "But I promised myself I wouldn't interfere with your love life, so I'll let it happen for now. Just don't do anything you'll regret later, all right."
She pulled her car up the drive, before she got out. Kouichi and Kaira remained sitting in the car in silence, not knowing to say to each other. "Is this really a good idea? I mean, it mightn't even work." She said as Kouichi watched her. "I don't know." He concluded. They got out of the car. He grabbed her as she walked pass him and pulled her into a tight hold. "But there's no harm in trying, right?" Kaira shook her head, before leaning into his chest.
They stayed like that for a couple of minutes, before she pulled away from him. "I promised Nikki I'd be at this party that's on tonight." Kouichi raised an eyebrow at her. "Which means I'll have to go home and find something to wear. Which brings up a new question, are you coming too?" Kouichi shrugged. There wasn't really any point in him going but it might be fun.
She shook her head. It was exactly like him to be indecisive. "Hurry up and make a decision. I don't really care if you come or not." She said as she started to walk away. "I'm not really the one to dance at parties, anyway." He shook his head and proceeded into his house. His mum was talking to someone on the phone when he entered. "Ask him yourself." She snapped down the phone before handing over to him. "Hello?" He said confused.
"Kouichi. Have you seen you brother?" A male voice asked desperately.
"Not today, no." He answered. He didn't really recognise the voice, though it did seem familiar. "Why?"
"He took off today and hasn't come back, if you're hiding him..."
Immediately it clicked. "Look, if I wanted to hide him I wouldn't be talking to you." He guessed it was their father. Where would he be? He wouldn't leave without telling me, would he?
Their father sighed. "Give me back to your mother, then." Kouichi did as he was told.
Before she had a chance to respond to the male on the other end of the phone, Kouichi ran to the door. "Where are you going?" She asked. "I'll be back soon mom. I promise." She looked about to protest when his father began to yell at her for not paying any attention to what he was saying (A/N kinda like my family).
He ran past Kaira as she came out of her house. "Kouichi, where are you going?" she yelled as he ran past. He stopped and looked at her. "I so sorry, but I have other things to do." He took off again. Sighing, she walked back into her house and threw the clothes in her arms onto the floor, before following Kouichi.
While on the run, he sent a text Takoya, telling him to get the others together and to meet him at the park. Takoya got the message half way though a fight he was having with his little brother. He checked the message while he had his brother locked in his room, their parents long given up on separating the two. He sighed and let go of the door as his brother fell out into the hall.
He walked to the door, just about to open it. "Where are you going?" his mother asked. "A friend wants me to meet him." Takoya explained. "He said it's important. I'll be back soon." He opened the door and ran out before anyone could protest. He text everyone else about meeting Kouichi at the park as he made his way to his destination.
15 minutes later
They all assembled at the park. "Why isn't Kouji here?" Zoë asked looking around. "That's why you're here," Kouichi explained to the group. "He's gone missing. And I'm thinking that the static on our phones is the digital world trying to get though to us." The rest of the group blinked. All of them thinking that he'd well and truly lost it. Noticing their confusion he continued on. "The pain I went though today couldn't be explained. But I have a theory. Kouji is back into the digital world and something put him into a lot of pain. And due to the fact we can feel each others pain..."
The group didn't know what to say. "Did you hit your head when you fell?" JP asked looking at the dark haired boy, who glared at him. "He's right. This all seems a bit far fetched." Zoë added. "Though I love you and all, its just not possible."
"I believe him." Takoya said after thinking for a moment. "Since when has Kouichi ever lied about anything? I don't know how Kouji got to the digital world...but we'll find a way to get there." Everyone looked at him. "Yeah. We'll find him." Tommy added nodding. "And we'll save the digital world again."
Zoë and JP looked as though they had been struck by lighting as Kouichi smiled at the other two. "Thanks, that means a lot." He said. The group looked at the remaining two. They seemed to be thinking about it for a moment. "You'll need someone to look after you all." JP smiled, showing that he was joking. Zoë sighed and nodded. "I guess I should go too."
"Seeing as we're going to find your brother in the digital world, how do we get there?" JP asked looking at Kouichi. "Unless twins have tracking devices on each other, we have no clue how to get there."
"Remember how I said about the static on our phone?" Kouichi asked. "What if we followed the signal until we reach its strongest point. Which should be the gate way to the digital world." Everyone blinked. It made sense...kinda. But there was nothing else they could do.
"Lets go." Takoya said pulling out his phone and following the signal as the others followed his example. They followed their phones as the static grew to new heights. Still not releasing the dark haired female following them. They arrived at the ally Kouji was at when he was pulled into the digital world (though they wouldn't know that), after a long search that Kouichi pushed them onward.
"This is it?" Zoë asked looking around the dirty ally, which was littered with rubbish. "Last time it was a train station. This a major down grade." The boys looked at her before shaking their heads. This was very typical of her to be like this. Nothing was good enough for her.
A crash of a trashcan told them they weren't alone as they all turned ready to attack. Before realising who it was. "What are you doing here? I thought you were going to that party with Nikki." Kouichi asked. "Considering you brothers missing, I thought I could be of some help." She said shrugging. "Plus Nikki would have her tongue stuck down 'new guys' throat most of the night, all the while imagining that its you."
"Kaira, you could help by waiting at home." Kouichi said putting his hands on her shoulders so they were facing each other directly. JP and Takoya exchanged looks of knowing, Tommy blinked, wondering why she wasn't allowed to help look for Kouji, and Zoë...well...was gaping like a goldfish. She wanted to have both twins and Takoya wanting to be with her. And by the way it was looking, Kouji was gone and so far no one had any idea where he was, Kouichi was interested in this 'slut' and Takoya was acting more than a little gay toward Kouji.
"But I want to." She complained. "I like your brother. He seemed nice." "You meet him yesterday, and talked to him for about an hour. I don't think you know him that well to say if he's nice or not." Kouichi sighed. He didn't want her to get caught up in the digital worlds affairs. It was too confusing, even to himself. "He can't be any worse than you." She muttered. At this comment, Zoë's temper snapped.
"You're a SLUT who thinks they can have everything they want when they want it. Stop being such a bitch to everyone and get a life. Kouichi doesn't like you." She snapped as everyone looked at her. "Your a vampire slut who sucks the life out of all the boys that take fancy to you. But it won't work here. We're too smart for your tricks."
"What? There is something very wrong with you. And by the sounds of it, you're jealous." Kaira said calmly. She put her arms around Kouichi's neck and looked into his eyes, as put his arms around her waist. "I love him. More than anything I've ever known."
Zoë's' eyes widened in anger. "You're lying. You act all sweet and innocent, but you going to use him then throw him away like yesterdays news. You probably won't even talk to him again."
"That's going to be hard." Kouichi said still holding onto his girl friend. "My mom and her mom are like best friends, we live next door to each other, we go to the same school and have the same classes." Kaira looked at him, confused. "How many times have you used that line?" She asked, as he shrugged.
"How long have you love birds been together?" JP asked. They had now gotten off track from the mission Kouichi had set the group. "We're meant to be trying to find Kouji." He snapped. He turned back to Kaira. "You stay here please. It'd be too dangerous."
She studied him for a couple of moments. "Promise you'll come back." She said as he nodded. She sighed and pecked him on the lips. "I'll wait for you. No matter how long it takes." Kouichi let go of her so she could go home. "I'll make up an excuse for you all if you want?" She suggested, as the others nodded. She smiled before starting to walk back home.
"Let's go." Tommy declared. A large portal appeared suddenly, making them all jump. They stood looking into it for a second before summing up the courage to go though it. Hold on Kouji. We'll bring you back. Kouichi thought, hoping his little brother could hear his thoughts. No matter what it takes.
