Dear Wormmon,
I just had the most horrible nightmare. If I could still go to the Digital World, I'd be afraid that
it was real!
Remember, a long time ago ... When -when I hung Davis off the side of a cliff- with Veemon on
the otherside, bound and helpless?---- That was my dream, only I was hanging off of the cliff,
trying so hard to get to you on the other side.
And then I saw ... me ... the Digimon Kaiser. I was laughing as if it were the funniest thing in
the world. I could see myself so clear ... And yet I was still /me/.
I just started screaming- Ken me, not Kaiser me. I was yelling at the Kaiser, telling him to let
you go and let /me/ get on with my life. He just snickered and lifted his shades, you remember
those ... I will never forget that contemptuous face ...
It was Osamu's.
I know I was yelling louder then, but he just put back his head and laughed again. I wonder if I
looked that crazy in my evil glory. With spite he held up his dark digivice- no /my/ Dark
Digivice. I expected him to press the button and watch me fall into the abyss.
He pressed the button alright ... I didn't fall ... You did.
It was like when you tried to save me, save /me/ from the Kaiser, and you fell out of my grasy,
me helpless to save you because of my own plight of darkness. I couldn't reach you, Wormmon,
and I tried! My hands ... they were bound ... By my memories?
The last thing I remember was you disappearing, me screaming your name, and Osamu laughing
bodiless in pure darkness.
Then I woke up.
So I'm here writing this, trying to calm my nerves. It was so frightening ... Beyond belief. It
leaves me wondering if all in all Osamu really was that driving force behind the Kaiser ... I don't
know.
I'm sorry I couldn't save you, even though it was only a dream ... I failed you again.
Yours,
Ken
