Part 18: The Dark Orb!
Sora: Last time, we all came up with a plan to go to Ichijouji's base and destroy whatever it is that's controlling Iori's "transparent dark rings," but to our surprise, Iori had returned to the base to not only destroy us, but to get rid of Ken as well due to him overhearing him talking with Wormmon about how "expendable" he was. Taichi and I sent the others an email warning them of Iori's arrival and almost got ourselves caught in the process. Luckily, we got away from Iori and went back to our hideout to let Miyako and Koushirou in on what's going on, but when we got there, we found the place totally trashed and those two were nowhere to be found along with Hawkmon and Tentomon and the only things we found were Izzy's Laptop and Iori's Digivice. Taichi and me, along with our Digimon, are now searching for them. Man, what else could possibly go wrong!
Insert 02 Intro here...preferably the original one used for the first half of 02 since it's a heck of a lot better than the one they use here. How can you not enjoy the scene where Iori is riding in Submarimon and Daisuke riding on Lighdramon and Shurimon devolving to Hawkmon and then armor evolving to Holsmon with the song Target~Akai Shougeki~ playing in the background.>
Daisuke & V-mon/Hikari & Tailmon/Mimi & Palmon Title: The Dark Orb!
Takeru walked along, ahead of Jyou and Matt, incomprehensibly muttering to himself.
"What's wrong with you now?" Yamato asked.
"Nothing!"
"This is why I split us up this way since Takeru-kun seemed a bit edgy, and since you're his brother, that maybe you can figure him out."
Yamato shrugged. "He hated splitting up, that's about it."
"Patamon, you're his best friend, any idea why he's so upset and edgy," Jyou asked the flying mammal beside him.
"I don't know. He just hates being split up from Hikari."
After hearing what the small, mammal-like Digimon had said, Takeru abruptly stopped and turned to his partner, who gulped nervously.
"Patamon, stop telling lies!"
Yamato put his hand on his younger brother's shoulder and gave him a smile. "Takeru, if you have a crush on Hikari, just admit it and stop acting all crabby about it."
"I-I-I don't like her like that!"
"That didn't sound too convincing," Yamato smirked, giving him a knowing look.
"It's true!" Takeru retorted. "I don't like her that way!"
"You're blushing," Yamato teased.
"I am not!!" the boy retorted, his face as red as can be over the accusation.
"You know, Takeru, you should try asking her out before it's too late."
"Um, what's that up ahead," Takeru pointed, trying to get the attention off of himself and his possibly having a romantic interest for his childhood friend. "It looks like a room."
"Let's go check it out," Jyou suggested.
The three boys went towards the room. When they opened the door, they saw it had a bunch of gadgets and computers in it.
"What is all this stuff?" Yamato asked.
"A bunch of stuff we probably shouldn't mess with," Gabumon cautioned.
"We have to get rid of whatever it is that's powering those rings that Iori-kun has on his wrists," Takeru said. "That's the first part of this so-called 'prophecy,' pretty much. Destroy the source, and we'll be halfway there of getting him back to normal."
"I know, but what if this isn't the source that we are looking for," Gabumon asked.
"Then we run as fast as we can after we crash every single computer in this room, literally!"
"Yeah!" both Takeru and Patamon said in agreement with Gomamon.
"I don't know you guys, what if this isn't the source that we're looking for, like Gabumon said. We could set off some kind of an alarm and not only get us in trouble, but the others in Mimi's group as well!" Jyou said.
"We take our chances, Jyou-san!" Takeru said.
"I'm with them, Jyou," Yamato said.
"It seems like we're outvoted, Jyou."
"Seems like it, Gabumon."
"C'mon, it's time to trash this place!" Patamon said with a dark smile.
"Yeah!" Gomamon and Takeru cheered.
"Wait," Jyou protested, "let's at least check these computers out."
"Do you know anything about computers?" Yamato asked, giving the older boy a quizzical look.
"Nah, he may be smart when it comes to school, but he's a moron when it comes to computers."
Jyou started to choke and shake Gomamon like he did when he and Gomamon were separted from the others, due to Devimon, and Jyou started to shake Gomamon after he had eaten all of their food. "What'd you say about me!"
"You sure are strong when you're being insulted."
"Calm down, Jyou," Yamato sweat dropped.
Jyou put the water Digimon down, and they all decided to check out the computers. All of the computers had lots of files on them that none of them could really figure out.
"I can't figure this stuff out, can you?" Takeru asked.
Yamato, Gomamon, and Patamon shook their heads. "Nope."
"Too bad all of this stuff is password protected," Jyou muttered. "We need a hacker. Too bad Koushirou isn't here."
"Let's destroy it!" Takeru cracked his knuckles.
"Yeah, let's destroy it!" everyone else agreed, minus Gabumon and Jyou whom of which were sweat dropping at the scene of their friends who seemed anxiously destructive.
"I still have this strange feeling that we're going to regret this," Jyou trailed off.
"Boom Bubble, Pah!"
"Marching Fishes!"
"Don't just stand there, Gabumon, help them out!"
"Okay, Yamato, okay. Bluuuuuuuuue Blaster, hah!"
After the many attacks from the Digimon, they managed to destroy all of the computers in the room.
"I still have this odd feeling that there was something on those computers that could've been beneficial to us," Jyou muttered.
"You worry to much, Jyou-san."
"No I don't!" Jyou retorted to Takeru. "I'm just cautious."
"We should e-mail the others."
"Right, niisan," Takeru nodded, taking out his D-Terminal. "I'll e-mail Hikari-chan right now."
The boy tried e-mailing the other group, but it wouldn't work.
"What's wrong, Takeru?" Patamon asked, noticing Takeru's look of perplexity.
"The email won't go through. It won't let me send it!"
"Oh no!" Yamato smacked his forehead. "Gennai told us when we were back in our world that we couldn't e-mail you because of all of this stuff the Digimon Kaiser was doing, so of course we wouldn't be able to send out an email if we're right here in his base!"
"We better go and find the others quickly!"
The others agreed with Gabumon's suggestion and left the room, leaving TK behind who was deep in thought.
'I knew something would go wrong if we split up!' the boy inwardly scolded. "I just knew it!"
Patamon, noticing their group was a human short, flew back to Takeru. "C'mon Takeru!"
"Takeru, stop standing there! Let's go!"
Yamato ran back and pulled his brother, who started to run along with
them, muttering, "It's my fault."
****
In another part of the base…
"This is place is even bigger than what it seemed to be earlier!" Daisuke exclaimed. "It seems like we've been walking down this path for a long time."
"Yeah, it does."
"Don't worry, Mimi, we'll find that room," Palmon responded in her same, perky fashion.
They walked a bit further.
"I hope we get Iori back to normal soon."
"So do I, Daisuke-kun," Hikari said with a sad look upon her face. "I hate the fact that he's like this."
"I promise you, Hikari-chan, I promise everyone, that I'll get him back to normal even if it means sacrificing myself and going along in his place to do it!"
Kari stared at the goggle wearing boy admiringly, and smiled. 'He sure is caring and he's determined to get Iori-kun back to normal. More than me even, but he's always been that way. He always put others before himself. Sure he may rush right into things, but he always means well.'
"Hey guys, look up there!" Mimi pointed.
The group came to a room filled with different monitors.
"Look, each monitor shows a different area of the Digital World!" Tailmon announced.
"I wonder why this room is so dark," Mimi thought out aloud.
"At least we're getting a little bit of light from the monitors."
"Yeah, I guess, Palmon," Mimi commented.
"Let's look around and see if we can find anything," Daisuke recommended.
"Yeah, like a light switch," V-mon muttered.
Everyone nodded in agreement and went off in separate directions and searched the strange room.
Over in one area with a strange looking computer, stood Mimi and Palmon...
"Do you think this could be what we're looking for, Palmon?"
"I don't know, Mimi. A computer's just a computer, isn't it?"
Mimi laughed a bit. "Don't let Koushirou hear you say something like that."
"I wonder what all of these different buttons are for."
"It's just a typical, transparent keyboard." She then shook her head. "Strange, since when are computer keyboards transparent…"
Both shrugged. They then heard a familiar, yet monotone voice...
****
"Hey, Daisuke, look!" V-mon pointed.
"It's a mini Dark Tower!"
"Agumon and the others said that Wormmon had one!" V-mon went over to the small object, nearly passing out in the process.
"V-mon!"
"I'm fine," V-mon said while stepping back, still feeling slightly woozy. "I just feel a bit weak since I went near it, just like with Iori's D-3."
"I wonder if this has anything to do with what's going on with Iori."
The cute, blue colored Digimon shrugged.
Daisuke picked up the mini Dark Tower. "Well, I'm going to make sure that this thing doesn't cause any more trouble!" With that, the boy broke the small object in half and tossed it aside. "There!"
"Wow, I feel much better since you did that!" He gave Daisuke the victory sign.
"Glad to help," he smiled.
"Do you think that was the source we were looking for, Daisuke?"
"I have this strange feeling that it wasn't."
V-mon and Daisuke then heard a familiar, yet monotone voice, which was
coming from Hikari's direction…
****
"Are you sure it's not right here?" a monotone voice responded.
….
"Okay, I understand."
....
"So where do I go if it's not where I am searching?"
....
"But she would've seen it since she was there."
....
"I guess. It must be very well hidden if they missed the key."
"Hikari, who are you talking to?" Tailmon asked, looking up at her human partner.
The girl shook her head, and spoke normally.
"You mean you don't hear the voice?" she asked in surprise.
"What voice?"
Mimi and Daisuke came up and asked what was going on, but they didn't get the chance to since Kari started to talk to nobody again.
"It will take all of our Digimon here to get rid of the source?" the girl asked, looking up into the air, speaking in the same monotone voice that she had earlier.
….
"But Palmon can't evolve here…"
….
"Daisuke-kun is the key to her evolution? I don't understand."
"Hikari-chan, um, who are you talking to?" the goggle boy asked.
"That's what I'm trying to figure out," Tailmon said, just as confused as everyone else to Hikari's behavior.
"So that's the voice we were hearing, Hikari's," V-mon said.
"I remember when this happened before," Mimi recalled, thinking back. "She became possessed and told all of us about how and why we were chosen. The only thing missing is her infamous glow."
The girl then started to glow and started to act as if she were in a trance.
"There she glows!"
:A nightclub scene appears with Gomamon on the drums where he does the rim shot thing for the bad joke Mimi had just delivered: ^^':
"I know where to go, follow me," Hikari instructed in a robotic-like manner.
The girl walked over to a familiar area, the one Mimi had just come from.
"Palmon and I were just here, and we didn't see anything."
Hikari put her hand on the transparent keyboard, her glow brightening, and pushed a key that both Mimi and Palmon had overlooked since the key was pretty much invisible. Due to Hikari's bright light, the key really stood out.
After she pushed the key, a strange looking black orb emerged from a trap door behind them. Hikari then walked over towards the orb, still in her trance, and glowing that same pinkish glimmer of hers. She took out her D-3, and still spoke as if she wasn't herself currently.
"Digimental Up!"
"Tailmon, armor shinka…Hohoemi no Hikari, Nefertimon!"
*****
RP: That translates to, "Tailmon, armor evolve...Nefertimon, the light
of smiles!"
*****
"Hikari's light is rejuvenating me, even though that strange looking
orb is filled with dark, negative energy; the same that the Dark Towers
seem to be formed from!"
"Does this mean what I think it means Palmon!"
"Yes it does, Mimi! It means that I can evolve!!"
"Kakoii!" Mimi squealed.
"Palmon, shinka...Togemon!"
"It's a good thing this room is big!" Daisuke noted, staring up at the cactus that stood before him.
"Yeah, we'd all be squished right now if it wasn't," Mimi nodded.
Hikari, who still seemed to be sleepwalking, turned to face Daisuke.
"Daisuke-kun, we could use more of your help. You already helped Palmon to evolve, but we can use V-mon's help now to destroy that Dark Orb that is the source of the Dark Rings' power that Iori-kun is wearing."
"Um, okay," Daisuke scratched his head in confusion. "How about it, V-mon? We could use some of Fladramon's powers right now."
"I'm ready, Daisuke!"
"Okay…Digimental Up!"
The Digimon tried armor evolving to Fladramon, but it didn't work.
"Hey, why can't I evolve!"
"What's wrong, V-mon? You've never had trouble armor evolving before."
"I don't know."
'I wonder if it's because I don't have my D-Terminal with me...'
"What do we do?" Mimi asked.
"I don't know! We need Fladramon!" Daisuke slightly panicked.
The boy got frustrated and ran to the orb and tried to pick it up, but it shocked him badly. Hikari just stood there; remaining in her trance like state while Mimi helped him up.
"That was a foolish thing to do, young one," Hikari stated, no feeling in her voice.
"We have to get Iori back! We have to destroy that thing, and the only way to do that is by breaking it! V-mon can't evolve, and I'd do anything to get Iori back to normal!"
"Without some sort of energy, he can't evolve!"
Daisuke, who was still sitting, started to pound his fist against the floor in frustration.
"I'd give up mine to help him evolve so that we can help Iori!"
Right at that moment, Daisuke's D-3 started to glow in a bluish color. Daisuke held up his D-3 again.
"V-mon, try armor evolving again!"
The Digi nodded and obeyed and tried armor evolving to Fladramon, but it just wouldn't work.
"Why can't I evolve!" the Digimon shouted out.
"This is strange," Togemon said.
"Do you feel sick, V-mon?" Daisuke asked.
"No. I feel fine, and energized."
The bluish glow from the Digivice started to dim a bit since V-mon started arguing.
"No, we're going to get you to evolve!" He then muttered, "If I could only give you some of my energy…"
The D-3's bluish glow started to grow bright again.
"You and V-mon have a strong bond," Hikari stated somberly. "You two are true friends to the end."
"You know, that bluish color looks like the same bluish color from the Digimental of Friendship," Mimi noted.
"That's it!" Daisuke turned to V-mon, his D-3 up. "Try evolving again, only this time, try to evolve to Lighdramon!"
V-mon nodded and did so. To his surprise, it worked.
"V-mon, armor shinka...Todoroku yuujou, Lighdramon!"
*****
RP: That translates to, "Lighdramon, rumbling with Friendship!"
*****
"Now, all three of you attack together," Hikari instructed.
"Curse of the Queen!" Nefertimon called as the beams from her crown hit the sphere.
"I think it's time for a bit of my Needle Spray, hoooh!!" Togemon's voice echoed, her prickly needles shooting at the orb.
"Blue Thunder!" Lighdramon called as a wave of blue electricity came from his horn.
Due to all of the attacks, the black orb was successfully destroyed.
It shattered into thousands of small pieces and then disintegrated into
dust…
****
Time the orb was destroyed Iori fell down, holding his head in pain.
"Iori, what's wrong!" Digmon asked in alarm.
Iori shook his head and looked up at the bug-like Digimon. "Digmon, what is going on? Where are we?" he asked, his once harsh voice, back to its normal, gentle one.
"We are in the Digimon Kaiser's base," Digmon reminded him. "We are plotting against the others, and plan on killing the Kaiser."
Iori gave the Digimon a look of confusion, trying to make sense of what he was telling him.
"Kill? Digimon Kaiser's base? Why would I do that, and why am I here in the Digimon Kaiser's base? Where are Miyako-san and the others?"
Before Digmon could answer, the boy held his head again in pain and his eyes glowed red. He then shouted at Digmon.
"Why on earth did you stop! We have to find his room so that I can use it to find those annoying brats for myself! His room has monitors showing every inch of the Digital World!"
The insectoid type Digi shrugged as they continued towards the room
that Hikari and the others were in...
****
The three Digimon devolved back to V-mon, Tailmon, and Palmon.
"Good job you three!" Mimi cheered.
"What about Hikari-chan?" Daisuke asked in concern.
The girl was still staring out into space, glowing.
"Hikari-chan, why did you say that Daisuke-kun was the key to my Palmon being able to evolve?"
"He destroyed the Dark Tower that was in this room, which allowed Palmon to evolve," Hikari responded, still in her trance-like voice. "My light also helped to rejuvenate Palmon as well."
"Okay, but how come V-mon wasn't able to evolve to Fladramon, but he could evolve to Lighdramon?"
"Because, Daisuke-kun, you showed that you have a strong friendship with Iori. Your friendship trait is a lot stronger than your courage, it always has been. Because of this, you were able to help V-mon armor evolve to Lighdramon."
"Huh?" Daisuke and Mimi asked in confusion.
"Now, we must hurry and leave. Danger is near."
"Danger?"
She nodded. "Yes, we must leave and meet up with Jyou-san and the others."
The others didn't object and followed the glowing Kari. There were two paths that led to the room they were just in. Instead of going the way they came, Hikari went the other way.
"Hurry..." she instructed.
****
"I think we're lost."
"Don't say that Patamon!" Takeru said as if Patamon had said a bad word. "We have to find the others before something happens to them!"
"Hey, what's that weird light up ahead?" Gomamon pointed.
"I don't know," Yamato squinted to see.
"I know this is going to sound strange of me, but I think we should go towards it."
"I feel that we should too, Jyou," Gabumon nodded. "Very strange…"
****
"Wait, I thought I heard voices!" Tailmon announced, getting alert.
"Don't stop," Hikari told them.
The girl continued on. They bumped right into Yamato, Jyou, Takeru and their Digimon.
"Hikari-chan?" Takeru stared.
"The glow was coming from her!" Yamato realized.
"Everyone, quiet," Hikari warned, holding up her hand. "Danger is near. We must leave here immediately."
"But we don't know where we are, or which way to go," Patamon pointed out.
"Quiet," Hikari instructed again. "Do not let the one that can take our lives hear you."
The group kept quiet and hid and saw what Kari was referring to.
"It's Iori-kun!" Takeru whispered.
"Let us leave while he is occupied."
"Sounds good to me!" Jyou said, agreeing wholeheartedly to Hikari's suggestion. "Let's go!"
The group left, following Kari, right out of the base. After they got outside, Kari collapsed to the ground. Takeru and Yamato helped her up.
"What happened?" the girl asked while rubbing her head. "Why are we outside? Did we ever find the source?"
"We sure did, thanks to you!" Daisuke smiled at her.
"Yeah! If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have ever found it!" Mimi added.
"Really?"
"Yep," Tailmon nodded, a proud smile on her face.
"Sure did!" V-mon and Palmon smiled.
"But Hikari-chan, who were you talking to?" Daisuke asked.
"Talking to?" Takeru queried.
"She was talking to someone that we couldn't hear," Mimi explained.
"I was talking to the same person who told me that everything would be all right before. Remember when the Digimon Kaiser caught me, and he tied me up? That same voice, and the one we heard in the pyramid."
"C'mon, let's get out of here and try to figure out the second half of this plan," Yamato suggested.
"Hmm…"
"Daisuke, what's wrong?" V-mon asked, noticing Daisuke's looking around, as if searching for someone.
"I don't see Taichi-senpai, or Sora anyplace. She has my D-Terminal."
"I don't see Agumon or Piyomon either," Gabumon said.
"What's with these kids and them having short attention spans!" Jyou complained. "Knowing Taichi, he probably got bored and ran off."
"You don't think they would really leave without us, do you?"
"No, I don't, Patamon." Yamato then started to panic some. 'Something must have happened to Taichi! He wouldn't leave me here! We're like best buddies, and he wouldn't just leave Hikari!"
"Calm down, niisan."
"Huh, what? What do you mean, 'calm down'?"
"Well, you have that look on your face like you're really panicked over a situation ever since Taichi-san was mentioned. You always get that way when you're really concerned about someone."
"Um, maybe I'm worried about Sora! She was with him!"
Takeru shrugged and decided to get off of the subject.
"Maybe you guys can track them on your Digivices."
"Good idea, Gomamon," Mimi said, taking out her Digivice as fast possible, anxious to find Taichi and Sora.
Just like with Mimi, all of the kids took out their Digivices and looked on them. They saw Tai and Sora, but couldn't figure out where they were.
"Where are they going?" Yamato muttered.
"I say we go talk to Miyako-kun and Koushirou about this," Jyou recommended.
"It's too late for you to talk with them!" they heard an evil voice laugh. "They're probably dying or in the process of dying as we speak!"
The group turned around and gasped.
"Iori!"
"Oh no, it's Digmon too!!"
Everyone turned to see who had said that. "Tentomon?"
****
RP: What are you doing here Tentomon? You've disappeared remember?
Tentomon: I'm sorry, I just couldn't resist. I always do the "Oh
no, it's insert evil Digimon>" line. It's in my contract! (Takes
out a contract, puts on specially made
Tento sized glasses) See, it states here that I must say it at least
once per episode or in this case, "fic" even if I'm not in that particular
episode or part.
RP: -_-
Tentomon: (Noticing the look RP had/takes off the glasses) I know, I know, I'm leaving, I'm leaving...
The flying bug leaves.
RP: Thank you, now maybe things can get back to normal.
Readers: Yeah right! :-p
****
"What have you done with Koushirou and Miyako-chan!" Mimi demanded
of the younger boy.
"I haven't done a thing with them, but I'm sure my partner has," Iori smirked, his arms crossed.
"Ichijouji!" Takeru growled in anger.
"Bingo, as that goofy, glasses-wearing freak, Miyako would say."
"How could you be so cold and heartless!" Mimi argued with Iori. "Miyako-chan is your friend! She has always been your friend, and she cares about you a lot!"
Iori held his head and started to shake it vigorously.
"No! Stop telling such lies! None of you care about me!" The boy let go of his head and glared evilly at Mimi for all she had said. "Digmon, attack them!"
"Here we go again," Daisuke groaned.
"RUN!" Takeru called out.
The group started to run and ended up a good ways ahead of Iori, but Matt stopped running.
"Niisan, what's wrong? Why did you stop running?"
"I'm not running anymore!"
Everyone gave Matt a look.
"Are you crazy! We'll get killed here! Let's just get back to our hideout!"
"No, Jyou! Iori is the reason Taichi ran away and left me," he then added on quickly, "and the rest of us! Taichi must've seen him coming and got Sora and Pyocomon to safety!"
"I guess, but---"
"I'm with Yamato," V-mon interrupted before Takeru could say any more. "We will stand our ground and defend ourselves!"
"But Iori's unusually strong, and Digmon is very strong too!" Gomamon pointed out.
"Yes, for some odd reason, he's been able to remain in that form pretty much indefinitely," Gabumon added wisely. "Nothing seems to weaken Digmon, and it seems as if Iori's hatred and abhorrence towards us is the energy being provided for Digmon so that he can remain as Digmon!"
"So unless we get Iori back to his senses Digmon's never going to run out of energy? Is that what you mean?" Palmon asked.
Gabumon nodded.
"I say we go find Taichi! We're picking up a reading on our Digivices."
"I'm with my brother. I see a few places, but they're scattered. There are two over here, and the other two in another part."
"But what about Miyako-chan and Koushirou?" Mimi asked.
"That's right! We have to find them now too, apparently," Daisuke said. "With the way Iori's talking, we can only hope that we aren't too late!"
"Definitely!" Takeru nodded. "They're the ones that are obviously in danger!"
"But who's going to look for Koushirou-san and who is going to go look for oniichan?"
"Good question." Jyou started to get a pondering look. "The only thing we can do is split up again. Hikari should go in search of Taichi since he is her brother, and I guess you should take Yamato along with you since he's so concerned about both Taichi and Sora. And I guess Takeru should go along as well. The rest of us will go check up on Miyako-kun and Koushirou. My group will go back to the hideout and see what's up there."
"Right!"
"Let's get out of here before Iori finds us!" Daisuke said.
"Just follow the signals on your Digivices everyone!" Jyou instructed.
The group scattered and went off on their assigned tasks...
****
"Damn, we lost them!" He then muttered, "Stupid trees…"
"Do you want me to keep looking for them, Iori?"
"No, I have something else in mind. Forget all of them! It's time to take over Ichijouji's base as well as the entire Digital World! Let's go! We have some more plotting to do to get rid of my so-called master!"
"Yes Iori."
The two gave up their search and headed back to the base...
*****
Meanwhile...
"They just wouldn't stay out of my way," an eerie voice uttered.
"You're absolutely right, sir," a second, more unenthusiastic voice replied.
"Of course I'm right! Now if they want these two back, they'll have to get through me!"
The person laughed and looked at the two people he had shackled to a wall.
"Are you sure you weren't too hard on them, sir?"
The owner of the voice grew angered. "Are you questioning my motives, Wormmon!"
"No, Ken-chan!" the small worm gulped. "I'm just saying that---"
"I don't care what you think or say! I know what I'm doing! I am going to get rid of the rest of the Chosen Children once and for all, and rule the entire Digital World, and prove that I can be good at something! That I'll be able to achieve something that Osamu-niisan never has and never will be able to obtain! I will surpass him every way possible!" Ken then gave out a laugh.
Why do things have to be this way?' Wormmon asked in thought dismally. 'The old Ken would never do this. He would never challenge his brother the way that he's doing now. In his eyes, his brother is still alive. Maybe one day, Ken-chan will come back to his senses.
'Why can't he just become friends with the other children instead? I hate hurting my fellow Digimon. Poor Hawkmon and Tentomon. They didn't stand a chance against me…'
"I'm sure that the rest of those snoops will show up sooner or later in search of their two, unconscious friends over here, and when they do, I'll be ready for them!!"
