Summary: Ken turns Kari down.

Note: I would like to say that I couldn't have wrote this fic without reading the "Harry Potter" books by J.K.
Rowling. If you ever get a chance to read them then please do.

Disclaimer: I do not own Digimon or any of the characters. I am just using them for this fic, otherwise, why would
I be writing this?

Kari waited in her bed for her parents and her brother, Tai to fall asleep. It was easy to tell when her
family was asleep because her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Kamiya were sleeping on top of each other with the door
closed. Her brother, Tai however, couldn't be able to awake because of his heavy snoring.

Kari had held her D-3 with her for what she was about to do. Gatomon was laid next to her, wide awake.
Hikari had given a plan yesterday. She didn' want to just be something that someone could own or brag about.
Davis, for a long time had been claiming her in front of everybody which made her feel sick.
Takeru, however, wasn't different at all. His friends would congratulate him for finally finding a girl and that also
made her feel sick. He would usually defend her from Davis and they would fight over her. She was tired over being
claimed. She also remembered that she was going to the Digital World tonight when no one knew she would have
gone at this hour.

"Gatomon?" she asked to her partner. "Are you awake?"

"As always," she said. "Kari, can I ask you a question?"

"Sure," she replied. "What is it?"

"Why are you going to do this?"

"Because... Because...." she stuttered.

"Kari?"

"Because I love him," she shouted.

"THE DIGIMON EMPORER?" she was shocked.

"Your not angry at me, are you Gatomon?"

"No, I am not," she said while nuzzeling her partner. "Whatever you will do I will be with you."

"Thank you Gatomon." she said while exclaimeing her soft fur. "Shall we be going now?"

"Yes, we shall."

Kari gently picked up her Digimon and got off the bed slowly. She crept upon the lower bunk where
her brother, Tai was sleeping. She gave him a peck on the cheek to remember her. "Goodbye, dear brother," she
said. She went to the computer and turned it on. The Digi-port appeared on the moniter and Kari put up her
D-3. "Digi-port open," she shouted as she started to travel inside the computer.

The Digital World was as it always was. It was just like the human world except the fact that there were
Digital Monsters called Digimon roaming around the area. "Gatomon digivolve" she odered while taking out her
digiegg.

"Gatomon armor digivolve to.......... Nefertimon! The angel of light!"

Nefertimon was her Digimon. She was like an Eygptian Queen to everyone (Nefertiti was an eygptian
queen married to a pharoh). She wasn't really a runner, but a really fast flyer. She usually worked with Pegausmon,
TK's Digimon to create the "Golden Noose."

Kari slowly mounted her Digimon and it flew in the hair. The wind was blowing across her face, making
her eyes shine like diamonds. As many people (boys) would say that she was a demon. She showed compassion
for one making the other jealous to fight over her and she, not really worring about either of the two.

They soon made it to the Digimon Emporer's base. It was in the sky, floating. It was completly covered
in darkness, like he wanted it to. There was a small hole on the side of the floating fortress that Kari and Nefertimon
entered through. She made it through all the levels and soon entered the room (where Takeru was when he fought
Ken) when she was detected by Ken's computer.

"Looks like we have some company," said Ken's dark voice. "I'll go and see who it is."

"Shall I go too master?" said his Digimon, Wormmon.

"No, stay here and be on guard," he odered. "If the enemy comes here you will take care of them."

"Yes, master."

Nefertimon sensed that Ken was approaching them and alerted Kari. "Kari, Ken is coming," she told
her friend.

"Okay, Nefertimon, let him come."

Soon, Kari saw the dark figure approach and shouted out, "Ken, I know you are there so don't hide." Ken
was startled when she heard her voice.

Ken was wearing his regular Digimon Emporer clothes (as usual). When he had heard Kari's voice
he was startled because he did not think that she was going to come to him, all alone. "What are you doing here?
Why are you all alone?" he asked as he slowly stepped into the light.

"About time you showed yourself," she said in a mocking tone which just made him more angry. "I came
here to talk to you."

"Do you finally agree to give up," he asked to one of his worst enemies.

"No, I haven't. I came here to tell you that I love you."

"You can't be serious."

"But I am," she said while taking a step closer.

"I would enjoy your feelings for me Kari Kamiya but I will have to reject them."

"What! Why?"

"You are a goody two shoes DigiDestined, while I am the mighty Digimon Emporer. Therefore, it isn't
possible for us to be together. Now leave here before I change my mind and I turn you into my slave."

"Fine!" she shouted. "I never cared about you anyway."

She got on her Digimon and left his flying fortress. For some reason, Ken sensed a surprising glow of
evil inside of Kari. Being a master of evil, he would know.

"Don't you think that you were a bit to harsh on her master?" asked Wormmon.

"Being harsh is what would turn you into the dark side."

"What do you mean?" it asked.

"She will be back," he replied. "She wouldn't have come to me unless she had lost all control of her body
in the real world and isn't willing to go back there. She has a lot of evil in her heart so when she realeses this evil, we
will see what she can do." he said with a laugh.

Meanwhile, Kari was kneeling on the shore crying while Gatomon was next to her trying to calm her
down. Kari couldn' believe that Ken had rejected her. All the boys in the world and fallen for her beauty (come on
people Hong Kong). She was like Cleopatra (an eygptian queen who seduced men to do anything for her) and
yet, Ken just turned her down like she was nothing.

"Kari, will you be alright?" asked her Digimon, who was next to her.

"What will I do Gatomon?" she said between sobs. "I still love him."

"Forget him," Gatomon said trying to stop Kari from crying.

Then something mystical happened. A dark mist surrounded Kari. Kari welcomed it, like it was the
inside of her heart. A figure appeared out of it, she was like Kari in every way, except, that she had an angelic look.
"Kari," said the voice. "I am your conscience."

"You are?"

"Yes, I am," it said. "Kari, you are light, but it can be easily changed into darkness."

"What do you mean?"

"The reason Ken rejected you," it started. "is because you and him are very different. To love someone you should
appearciate who he is and what he does. To enjoy true happyness with Ken, you would have to side with darkness
itself. Would you accept it?"

"Yes, I will."

"Therefore, I will give you a new crest," she said while handing Kari a crest with the symbol of a snake on it. "This
crest would digivolve Gatomon to a dark form. As I said before, to be with someone you have to be with them and
agree in what they do. So, you will no longer be called Kari Kamiya, but rather, The Digimon Empress."

The figure once again pointed at Kari and she was lifted. A dark glow surrounded her and put on her new clothes.
She had dark glasses and the same clothes as Ken. Her beautiful smile changed into to a smile of greed and
destruction. Kari liked the new feeling that she was getting and let the darkness enter her.

"It is done. You have now recieved what you desire, a life to be with the Digimon Emporer. I shall go now." she
said while leaving the same place where she entered.

Major cliffhanger huh? Anyways I will try to have the next chapter up as soon as possible. Maybe Saturday? Back
