Disclaimer: I don't own Digimon, but I think that's a given.
(A/N: Thanks for reviewing people. I have decided to focus on 'Revenge' right now and come back to 'Doppelgangland' because not only have I planned the entire ending for this story but have already thought of a sequel.
Thanks for pointing that out Emu, I do know the differences between the two when I did some research on the subject last year (when my friends were worried that I might have Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD)/Split Personality). For those of you who don't know the difference between Schizophrenia and MPD I will explain.
Schizophrenia basically is a server mental disorder in which a person suffers unpredictable disturbances in thinking, mood, awareness and behavior. The person may show inappropriate emotions (laugh at a sad story). They also suffer from delusions. That is just a dash of info on it.
MPD is a mental disorder where a person becomes one or more different people. They suffer from blackouts or gaps in their memory (this is when another personality is in control). The person has no control over their other personalities' actions. That's basically it (I would add more, but it will take too much time. The reason I made Davis say Schizophrenia is because well we all love Davis lets face it, he's not too bright and I doubt he would know what MPD is as Schizophrenia is more well known. As Ken is the genius (or was), he will be the one to bring this up.
Also, MYSTICALBLACKFAIRY, I live in South Africa and you don't get my channel sorry.)
"Revenge"
'Questions and Answers'
"Answers to what?" Wormmon asked hesitantly. Even though Ken had changed drastically since his Digimon Emperor days, he still didn't like to test his temper, and it seemed like he had a short fuse right now.
Ken sighed very heavily, like he was trying to breathe a large burden out of him. He looked down at Wormmon, "There are things that have happened and I can't explain any of them. Yolei and Cody were attacked."
"By Digimon? Are they alright?"
"No, not by Digimon, and Cody will be fine, but…Yolei looks…it's bad…and…." Ken's eyes trailed to the horizon, as they became glossy with tears he tried to keep at bay.
"I'm sorry Ken." Wormmon nuzzled Ken's chest gently, "What happened?"
"Someone attacked them, and I think it was me."
Wormmon snapped his head up at his human friend, "But Ken, you aren't the Emperor anymore."
"I know that Wormmon, but there are blanks in my memory and Cody saw that it was me, and Yolei mumbled something when she first woke up…Wormmon, do you know what Multiple Personality Disorder is? I guess not, how would you know that?"
"I'm sorry Ken."
"For what?"
"For being stupid and not knowing."
Ken's heart broke at the blue eyes staring up at him. He knew that as the Emperor he had called Wormmon stupid numerous times, and even now the small Digimon thought it was true.
"You aren't stupid Wormmon! Don't ever think that! I'm sorry for…"
"I know." He crawled onto Ken's shoulder, "What is Multiple Person, something?"
"Multiple Personality Disorder, or MPD. It's a mental disorder of the mind. Basically it means that a person has more than one personality instead of just the one. I think I have that and the other personality is the Emperor."
"Is that possible?"
"It very well could be." He scooped Wormmon up into his arms and stood up, "That's why I'm going to the computer room. That's where all this started and there might be something there that could help me figure out what's going on."
"Well, MBD or not, I'll stand by you the whole way, Ken-chan."
As they found themselves in the heart of the desert, the violet-eyed boy smiled down at his Digimon, "Thanks Wormmon. I'm so glad I have you, but when I enter the real world, I think you should stay here, just encase I have to get away or I change or something. Okay, you understand?"
The little green worm nodded sadly.
~~~~****~~~~
"What do you have in mind Kari?" TK asked on the way to Cody's room.
"There is something I have to ask him, it won't take long, then we can research Davis' theory of Schizophrenia."
Davis pushed open Cody's door and the three of them entered the white, clinical room. The small boy in the stark white bed sat up and smiled at them.
"What are you guys doing here? It's so good to see you. I was so bored with no one to speak to. I really miss Armadillomon."
"We can't stay long Cody, sorry. But there is something important we need to ask you." Kari sat on a chair next to his bed.
"Sure, what is it?"
"Last night, when Ken stabbed you," she paused, hesitant to go on by the expression on his face, but this was important so she carried on regardless, "what did his eyes look like?"
"Pardon?"
"His eyes. Was there something different about them. Were they small and cold?"
Cody sat in thought for a moment as the scene of last night played through his mind, then he slowly nodded, "Yeah just like when he was the Emperor."
"Was there anything else that you can remember about them?"
"Not that I recall Kari, it's kinda blurry now."
"Thanks Cody. Don't worry about it, you just get some rest and get better soon."
"How's Yolei doing?"
"Um, dude, she slipped into a coma last night, I thought the doctors told you." Davis rubbed his head and looked down.
"I swear when I recover and get out of here, I'm gonna make him pay." Cody growled.
After a few minutes the three left the hospital and headed towards the library. Kari stopped them.
"There is something I have to check out at the school. I'll meet you at the library as soon as I can okay?"
TK frowned, "What are you gonna do Kari?"
Kari shrugged, "I have a hunch about something, don't worry TK I'll be right there when I am finished."
The blond sighed, "Alright, but if you think someone is following you or you feel you are in danger…"
"TK! Relax, I'll be fine, you go on."
"You sure Kari, you don't want us to go with you?" Davis asked.
"I'm sure, besides this way we kill two birds with one stone. Now go!"
"Okay, we'll see you soon." Davis yelled as he and TK ran off.
Kari turned heel and headed for the school.
As she walked the familiar path, she pondered on how so much stuff could happen in the course of a few hours. How Ken's life could take such a drastic and horrible turn for the worst. How two innocent people could be hurt and the other could leave them forever. Kari gasped involuntarily as she realized her best friend could die at any given time. She didn't want that to happen. She would not let that happen, but in reality she was helpless to stop it and it made her angry.
"Kari! Hey Kari!"
Kari spun around to see who was calling her name. It was a girl about her height, with shoulder length, auburn red hair, wearing black bell-bottom jeans and an emerald green top that brought out her magnificent green eyes.
"Mae." Kari smiled at the girl, "What are you still doing at school?"
Mae caught up and stopped in front of the brunette, panting slightly, "I had a few things to fetch that I left in my locker. What are you doing here?"
"Um, same thing." Kari lied.
"Yeah, well I gotta go, got a stack of homework. Bye, see you tomorrow."
"Bye Mae!"
Kari looked around her and headed towards the computer room. When she saw something at he end of the passage, she changed her mind and went back down the stares to a room close to the cafeteria (A/N: anyone got a map of the school? ^-~)
She peered inside it and noticed that it was empty. She checked outside before stepping inside the room. She went to the shelf with all the videotapes on it and scanned them with her hand. When she found the date of the one she wanted and pulled it off the self, she pushed it into the nearby video recorder on the desk and turned the television on, putting the volume down low. She frowned at what she saw and gasped when Yolei was struck over the head. She watched a few minutes more before pushing eject and rushing back up the flight of stares, tape in hand to the computer room. When she entered the room, she found Ken standing by the computer.
"Ken!" she gasped though short breathes.
He narrowed his eyes at her and glanced at the videotape, "What's that you go there?"
Kari shifted the tape behind her, trying to hide it. "I know who you are!"
"I thought you might catch on, pity, now I will have to take care of you too." A sadistic smile crossed Ken's lips, as he grabbed his old whip and with a snap wrapped it around her neck. Yanking it backwards caused Kari to jerk forward into Ken's arms, where he hit her over the head with a blunt object. A rock possibly, she didn't know, all she knew was that her world was going black and she would not be able to tell the world what she had found.
~~~~****~~~~
"Well this makes as much sense as French being taught in German." Davis exclaimed as he shut another window on the computer.
"Still nothing?" TK asked as he too shut a window.
"No, just all the same thing. It's clear he hasn't got Schizophrenia, he doesn't start walking funny, lifting his legs too high." (A/N: That's one of the strange things they do, look it up.)
"So it's more Split Personality right?" TK asked.
"Yeah, but I just wish we could find more information on the net about it."
TK glanced at his watch.
"What do you think is keeping Kari?" Davis asked when he noticed the worried look in TK's eyes.
"I don't know. Maybe we should head towards the school, to check it out." TK urged.
"Yeah, okay. Lets go."
~~~~****~~~~
Ken looked down at Kari's limp form and gasped, "What have I done?" he ran over to her and felt his foot crunch under something plastic. He looked down, videotape. He ignored it and focused on Kari. He checked her; she had a pulse, thank goodness.
Voices outside caused Ken to snap his head up and ran to the door, peering out left and right.
When he heard "Hey that's that Ichijouji kid! That's that boy who's wanted!"
He bolted for the stares. He ran as fast as his legs could allow.
One of the men had checked the room and found Kari lying on the floor out cold and called the police, while the other thought he still had a chance of catching 'The Rocket'.
"A port." He thought to himself as he feet hit the ground in rhythmic beats, "I need a port. I need to get back to the computer room, I'll never make it to my apartment."
He ran in circles trying to get the other two men, teachers probably as far away from the room as possible.
~~~~****~~~~
"Dude! TK that police car was heading for the school."
"How do you know that?"
Davis pointed to one of the police cars outside the school, "Uh, that's how."
TK's eyes widened, "Kari!"
~~~~****~~~~
Ken successfully made it back to the computer room and opened the port just in time. Just before going though he whispered to Kari, "I'm so sorry." And was sucked into the Digital world where he was confronted with a large group of Digimon and a familiar figure. Ken gasped.
"YOU! But how…?"
----~~~~-----
Ken: Err…?
Kaiser: I'm lost.
Osamu: *reading Nic's notes again* I know what's going on.
Nic: Well just as long as you shut up about it. Look, I promise you that every small detail in this story is important, and it will tie up soon. I'm sorry for this lame chapter what with all the MPD talk, but it was important. *Shakes head*
Kaiser: Sure she says that now.
Nic: *Smacks the Kaiser* You know I love you, but you don't have to make fun of me. I'm too tired to be sitting here talking to you minions, I mean muses.
Ken: Did you say minions?
Wormmon: That's what I heard.
Osamu: Yeah me too!
Kaiser: I am no one's minion!
Nic: Sorry it was a slip. I didn't mean it! Honest.
Ken: Okay I forgive you.
Wormmon: Me too.
Nic: Aww thanks guys. *Yawns* I'm soo sleeppppyyyzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz *head falls on the desk as she falls asleep*
Ken: pulls a blanket over her.
