Chapter 1: ¡Surprise!

"Tell me why are we here again?" Tai complained as he sat in one of the chairs that were provided for the people at the end of the Gate 13 at the airport. He was really bored and wanted so bad to go and spend the time with Lauren, but nooo, his sister had to drag him all the way to the airport and with out telling him why. In fact, no one that was there really knew why they were there. Only Kari, but she just remained quiet in her sit with a grin across her face.

"I don't know, dude, why don't you ask your sister?" Matt that was sitting coolly next to Tai said.

"Kari-" Tai tried but was cut of by Kari screaming.

"Wow she's here." Kari shouted and got up from her seat to great whom ever was coming out of the gate.

"Huh?" Everyone asked.

Mimi who was fixing her nails looked up to see Kari and a bunch of people surrounding a girl. "Who is she?" she asked while she looked at the figure.

"I have no idea." Joe said while closing his book.

"We should go there and greet her." Izzy offered as he closed his laptop and stood up.

Joe, Mimi, Tai, Izzy, TK, and Matt stood from there seats and went to where Kari was greeting some stranger. They couldn't see who she was, because Kari was in front of her and was blocking her face from everyone.

"Oh, there you are guys, I want you to meet, no I mean, I want you to greet some one that left six years ago. You all know her really well, especially you big brother." Kari said while she smiled stepped out of the way so everyone could see who she was talking about.

The girl looked up and smiled at her old friends. She was gorgeous, her red crimson eyes sparkle with the light that was coming from the windows, her red hair had grown a little and now rested on her shoulders, it had little strands of black all around and was held back by a black band that was put on her forehead and prevent some hair from falling on her face, she had one piercing on her upper ear, her face was a more mature one, and her body was really thin, Soccer had really helped her getting that figure. She was wearing a black mini skirt, and a white tank top that had a V-neck and said 'Chill' in gothic letters, she wore black boots that went up to her knees.

All the guys stop to look at her, from feet to head. Then most of them started to drool. Mimi saw this and step forward, knowing that the guys wouldn't be in conditions to talk at the moment.

"Umm I'm sorry, but have we met before?" she asked in the most gentle, trying not to sound disrespectful toward the new visitor.

"My, my, my, I can't believe that you have forgotten me Mimi. I was one of your best friends after all." The girl said while stepping forward. "You haven't changed that much Mimi. You died you hair pink, well that's not a surprise, you've always love the color pink. The hair cut its great, I love it, the hair in your shoulders really suits you. You have grown taller, but nothing much, you are still the same Mimi I've known all my life." She said while surrounding her and checking her out.

"Huh?" she replied.

The red head just smile and hug her friend. "I'm Sora you, dummy." Mimi was about to say something but she stop her. "Let me have some fun." She smirked motioning with her head to the still drooling guys. Mimi smirked and nodded.

Sora looked at the five drooling guys in front of her. She smiled. "Well, let's see. Umm…" She put a finger on her cheek. "Let's start with Izzy. You have gotten taller I see, you are more muscular too." She said, while squeezing his arm. "Your hair is shorter. You are much taller but still not as tall as me." She looked at Izzy's arm and saw his old computer. "I see that you still like computers thought, and you still have your old computer. Well you haven't changed much since I last saw you. "She winked and stepped forward to hug him. He hugged her back and let go of her after a while. Then he stepped aside beside Mimi, and gave her a blank expression. She just smile and looked at Sora.

"Joe." She said. "Well I see that your hair is longer now, you let it grow. You've changed your glasses; I think they look better now. For the look in your face, I can tell that you are still the really good student I met six years ago. You've grown taller than me, but that's kind of obvious." She stepped forward and hugged him. He hugged her back and then stepped next to Izzy and gave him and Mimi a blank expression. Izzy just shrugged his shoulders while Mimi and Kari continue to smile.

"TK, little TK." She said while stepping near the young blond. "You've grown up a lot, in fact. You are more handsome now, and you don't have the innocent face anymore. You look more mature now. I bet girls are all over you now. You've changed your hat too, I loved it, but you are still little TK too me. You are really good looking and wow nice body." She said while hugging him and then letting go. TK followed Joe's and Izzy's procedure; but still nether of the girls said a thing.

"Matt." She said while looking at the older blond. "Sup? Doing well? I really do think so. I heard your band's new song and I think its great song. You are really famous in America. Your hair has grown and I see that you comb it with gel, nice. I bet you take longer to get ready than Mimi does." She laughed. "Well, you are more mature now, I can see that, I also can see that you have grown taller, I think that you are taller than me now. It's really nice to see you again." She said while hugging him. Matt followed everyone's procedure. The girls started to giggle.

Sora smirked seeing Tai's face. "Taichi." She said while approaching him. "Ha, you always got mad when some one called you that." She laughed. "Well let's see, your hair is still a mess, but it has grown. You are taller than me now. Your eyes haven't changed at all; they are still gentle and captivating. I can tell that you are still the soccer obsessed that I've know all my life. I see that you are not wearing your goggles, which is strange, but in my opinion you look better now. Umm." She stopped and put her index finger in her cheek. "I can tell that you still get detention all the time, and that your average is about seventy percent. Yep, you haven't changed much at all." She said and hugged him. But he didn't return it.

"Who the hell are you?" he asked, with a blank expression on his face, after she let go.

"Huh?" Sora smirked. "So you all forgot me? Aww that's so sad."

All of them except Kari and Mimi nodded their heads. Sora stepped forward and looked at them.

"Well for any reason, do you guys remember a red head about this tall…" Sora said while making something with her hand to show them how tall. "…she had crimson eyes, loved soccer and went to the digi-world with you?"

Every body nodded their head, but most of them didn't really see the point here.

"Who the hell are you, and how the hell do you know about the digi-world?" Tai said still not getting it.

Sora, Mimi, and Kari fall back anime style.

Just then Izzy realized what the pretty girl in front of him wanted to state. He step forward and looked into her eyes, the he asked:

"Sora?" Sora nodded.

Everyone just stood there amazed. This girl in front of them was Sora. She had really grown up a lot.

'Wow, she's hot…' Both Matt and Tai thought at the same time.

Everyone came closer to her and gave her a big hug. The very last persons that gave her a hug where Matt and Tai. Matt came closer and gave her a hug, it lasted a fair amount of time, but that only made Tai jealous.

"Ok, ok, it's my turn." He said to Matt.

Sora looked at him and smile opening her arms. "Hey buddy." She said, while Tai warped his arms around her body. She rubbed his back affectingly. "It's good to see you again."

"Yeah it is." Tai whisper in her ear. "I really miss you, thought."

"Yeah, me too." Sora whispered back. "Oh, by the way, your birth day is tomorrow. I have a surprise for you." She grinned at him after a while.

"Oh really?" Tai grinned back. "I wonder what it is."

"Ha, well you are not going to see it until tomorrow…" Sora said as she let go of him. She walked to where the cart that had her bags, and picked it. "So…you guys came here by bus or is anyone going to give me a ride?"

"Oh no, my brother can give you a ride, we are heading back to our place. By some reason my mom wanted organized a party for you." Kari said while she helped Sora with her bags.

"Kari, wait a minute you knew about this all along?" Tai asked disbelieved.

"Yes, Sora e-mailed me about three weeks ago, telling me that she was moving back. So I told my mom and because she always thought about Sora like a daughter, she organized a party." Kari said while picking one of the bags. Instantly all of the guys helped Sora with her bags and started to walk to Tai's car.

"And you didn't tell me this because…?" Tai insested.

"Wow, nice car." Sora said while looking at Tai's car. It was a red Mercedes Benz. "How did you get it Tai? Did you steal it?" Sora joked.

"Ha…ha…ha…very funny." Tai replied sarcastically. "Actually, dad gave it to me, for my 18th birthday. He said that I was responsible enough to have a nice car."

"But your birth day isn't until tomorrow."

"Yes, but Tai persuade dad to give him the car earlier." Kari said.

"Oh." Sora said. "Well any ways, like I said earlier, nice car."

Tai came up to his car and cleaned the top of it with his hand, then he leaned against it coolly. "Well what can I say?"

"Yeah, yeah. Let's get going." Sora said as she opened the passenger seat and entered the car. Kari did the same but sat in the back seat. Tai shrugged and opened the pilot seat, starting the engine and driving off. Matt, TK, and Mimi entered Matt's black Toyota Nerf Bars. Mimi sat in the passenger seat, while TK sat in the back seat. Matt opened the pilot seat and drove off, followed by Joe's white Citroen C3 Pluriel, with Izzy in the passenger seat.

"So Sora…did your dad stayed in the States or is he coming to?" Kari asked in the back of the car, trying to make a conversation. They had just leaved the airport.

"Well actually no, dad is coming tomorrow. I need to go to the apartment and unpack everything before dad gets here. He couldn't make it today because he got some things to finished packing, and he needed to be there to finish selling the house." Sora said in a cheerful voice, looking back at Kari in the back seat.

"Oh, really good." Kari said. "So which school are you going to attend now that you are back here?"

"Well dad was planning to send me to Odaiba's Takoro School but…" Sora couldn't finished as she saw both Tai's and Kari's faces. "What?"

"You were going to Takoro School?" Tai asked disbelieved.

"Yeah…why?" Sora asked still not getting it.

"Sora, Takoro's school is one of the most expensive schools in all Japan, not to mention the great academic level, and let me tell your have you ever seen the girls in that school? I mean the uniform?" Tai said while making an image of Sora wearing the Takoro's uniform. He started to drool.

Sora hit the back of his head. "Well that's one of the reasons why I didn't accept the invitation, but the mayor reason was because I wanted to be in school with you guys. I mean we haven't talk to each other since dad decided that we were moving. It was only fair that dad let me go to school with you guys." Sora said.

"Oh, that's so cool. We are going to be in the same high school. And I heard that they were going to change the uniforms." Kari cheerfully said. "Oh Tai by the way, are you still regretful for not going on that date with Lauren?" Kari teased her brother.

"No, because I have a mayor hottie right by my side." Tai said as he winked at Sora. She just rolled her eyes. "Right honey?"

"Yeah, yeah. Oh and who's Lauren?" Sora asked.

"Oh she is a girl that has, like every girl in school, a crush on my brother." Kari started. "So being the play boy he is, he asked her out, just to dump her after a month or so and then start with another one."

"Oh." Sora said. "So Tai, have you ever been in a serious relation ship?"

"Yeah, off cores. But we broke up after she left to Kyoto." Tai said while taking soft glances at Sora. "How about you?"

"Well I've been dating and all, but the only serious relation ship that I've ever had in my life ended after one year. He dumped me because he was changing schools, we tried still dating but it was too complicated, so he dumped me." Sora said remembering her ex boyfriend.

The kept chatting all the way until they arrived to Tai's and Kari's apartment. They got out of the car, and went up the elevator, just to find all of the digidestines already there.

"How did you guys got here first? We drove off at the same time." Tai asked.

"Well there was a short cut, but you guys were too busy that didn't notice it." Matt said, sitting on the couch.

"Hi, I'm Tai's mom. Is nice to meet my son's new girlfriend." Mrs. Kamiya said.

Sora sweat dropped, while Tai blushed and the others fall back anime style. "Umm Mrs. K, it's me Sora."

"Sora? Oh my god Sora, look how much you've grown up. You grown into a beautiful young lady." Mrs. Kamiya said while hugging her.

"Thanks Mrs. K. Umm is it alright that I still call you that?" Sora asked.

"Off cores honey." She answered.

"I'm sorry we are late but the traffic is a mess." Mr. Kamiya said while opening the door. He entered and kissed his wife, then he approached Sora. "Well hello, I've guess we haven't met before. You are one of Tai's new girlfriend?"

They all fall back anime style. "Why is everyone asking me this?" Sora murmured. "No, Mr. K. Its Sora."

"Oh Sora, I'm sorry." He said and hugged her.

"Hey I'm sorry but-" Mr. Takenouchi was cut off by the sight of his daughter. "Sora?"

"Dad?" Sora asked surprised. "What are you doing here? I thought you were staying to finish packing?"

"Well yes, but I decided to come earlier so I could give you a surprise, but I guess I just ruined it." Mr. Takenouchi smiled.

Sora went to hug he dad as she and him came into the apartment and sat on the couch talking with the others.

Later that same night, Sora was in the balcony looking at the landscape. She was lost in thought until someone stood beside her. She looked up to see who it was.

"Hey." Tai said.

"Hey." Sora said. "Are you exited for your surprise tomorrow?"

"Off cores, oh by the way." Tai said as he took off his elbows from the wall that protected any one from falling of the balcony. "Here."

Sora took the small velvet box from his hands and opened it, looking inside. When she looked inside she found a beautiful necklace, it had a soccer ball in the middle. "Oh Tai is beautiful."

"Thanks, I hope that you can forgive me for what I said before you left." Tai said looking into her eyes.

"Off cores buddy, you are my best friend." Sora smiled and kisses his cheek.

Tai hugged her closed and whisper into her ear. "I'm glad that you're back."

"I'm glad that I'm back too, that way I can prevent from some stupid cheerleader to steal away from me the most precious thing that I have in the world." Sora said breaking the hug and winking at him before coming in the apartment again.

"Huh? Sora what do u mean by-" but he was cut of by the door closing. He just smiled and looked and the horizon watching the sunset. "I see that your feelings haven't changed, I'm glad, because mine haven't either."
