Digimon Fan Fic: Inside the Mind of an Emperor

Chapter 9

By Ken Ichijouji

"VEE HEAD BUTT!"
Veemon and the other digimon, launch a full-scale assault on Ken, but their attacks do no harm to ex-emperor.
"Our attacks just don't seem to have any effect! POISON IVY!" Palmon informs them.
"Maybe its time to digivolve! Gabumon digivolve!"
"GABUMON DIGIVOLVE TO GARURUMON!"
"You do the same guys!" Tai and the others yell.
All the older kids' digimon digivolve to their champion level. Now it's the new kids' turn.
"VEEMON DIGIVOVE TO EXVEEMON!"
They all digivolve into their champion levels ready to face Ken.
"If Wormmon was here, ExVeemon could DNA Digivolve into Paildramon! But Wormmon is no where to be found!" Davis says.
"And if Kari wasn't on the wrong side of the tracks, Aquilamon and Gatomon could digivolve into Silphymon!" Yolei tells them.
"Let's show him Cody!"
"Right T.K.!"
"Digivolve!" they yell together.
"ANKYLOMON, ANGEMON DNA DIGIVOLVE TO SHAKKOUMON!"
"CHAKITA BOMBS!" Shakkoumon fires his attack at Ken, but before they even make contact, Ken swats them away like flies.
Tai and Davis both realize that the digimon will have to digivolve to their strongest forms.
As Ken watches their futile attempts to beat him he looks to Kari is obviously saddened by what is going on in front of her.
'Ken can't we stop this?
'No Kari. I gave them a chance, but they didn't take it. Now they must pay the piper.'
Kari sighs and Ken reverts his attention back to the Digidestined.
"TERROR FORCE!"
"METAL WOLF CLAW!"
The powerful attacks lunge at Ken, but again he deflects them away carelessly.
"How are we suppose to beat him when we can't even touch him!?" Sora asks.
"Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God!" Joe frantically says while walking in circles with his hands on his head.
"I say we all attack him together all at once!" Zudomon requests.
"It's the only thing we haven't tried to lets do!" Izzy says ready for action.
"TERROR FORCE!"
"METAL WOLF CLAW!"
"VULCAN'S HAMMER!"
"FLOWER CANNON!"
"WING BLADE!"
"HORN BUSTER!"
"VEE LASER!"
"GRAND HORN!"
"CHAKITA BOMBS!"
All off the attack fly towards Ken with intent of high destruction.
'Kari, I'll let you handle this one.'
She sighs again then looks at her friends and sighs. Gatomon looks on from shadows not wanting to fight Kari or any of her friends. Finally, Kari does what she must. She creates a large shield in front of her and Ken. The attacks dematerialize and the shield disappears. She turns her back to the kids and faces Ken. He looks at her with a bewildered look.
'I can't do this Ken. They are my friends and yours too.' She says looking down.
'Kari please don't do this. I don't want to have to hurt you. Please reconsider or else I will have to destroy you.'
'Then you must do what you have to. I am joining my friends...our friends.' And with that, a single tear drops from he eyes as she lowers herself to the floor. Her gothic look dematerializes and she returns to her former look.
"I'm sorry Ken, but I must fight for what is right!"
'Hmph! Fine Kari. I really did care about you but I must not let this become an obstacle. Good-bye.'
Ken fires a single beam at Kari straight into her heart. The others are surprised by this and only look at her as she falls.
"Kari!" Tai yells as he runs to her.
Kari says nothing and the sign of the blood draining from her mouth tells him that she is dead.
Just then Ken falls to the floor and becomes his normal self.
"What happened? What have I done!?"
The digidestined look to where Ken once was, to see a swirling black cloud.
"What in the.." Matt silently says.
'Muhahahahahahahaha.....'
