Split Personalities

Chapter 8: Interview

"Where am I? Oh, no." The Digimon Emperor was tied up to a chair. He tried to get free, but it was tied in a knot he hadn't undone before. The digi- destined & the Digimon saw that the Digimon Emperor was awake & went over to him.

"Alright, Digimon Emperor. How are you able to control Ken?" Tai was glaring daggers at the Digimon Emperor. He narrowed his eyes.

"I don't know. The Shadow Empress told Ken how she would do it, not me. Why don't you ask Davis? Ken transfered his memories to him." Everyone stared at the Digimon Emperor & Davis. They couldn't believe what they just heard.

"How was Ken able to do that? He doesn't have any special powers." The Digimon Emperor stared at Tai.

"That's where you're wrong." At that moment, a black aura surrounded the Digimon Emperor. Everyone stood back. The aura disappeared again, letting everyone know that the Digimon Emperor wasn't lying about Ken's hidden powers. "Ken's powers are one of the reasons that the Shadow Empress wants Ken. Another is to separate him into his multiple personalities, and I don't mean into just himself & me. The last reason is for that Dark Spore in the back of his neck. I have no idea why." Izzy walked up to the Digimon Emperor.

"Okay, you mention a being known as the Shadow Empress. Who is she?" The Digimon Emperor smiled.

"She's the one who let me have control over Ken. She's from the Shadow Realm, which is the darkest realm of all. She's a human that wears a completely black Digimon Emperor outfit & has two vampire fangs. She is a shifter & can control anyone with her Shadow Ring, which act like my Dark Rings but can control humans as well. She has two pets. One of them is Emperor, who is 1/3 black lab, 1/3 Garurumon, & 1/3 human. Emperor can speak any language & is the master of the mind. He was able to control both me & Ken with his Psychic Control skill. The other one is Guilmon. He's half Greymon, half human. He's a fire-breathing Virus Dragon & has scales as hard as diamond. The human DNA comes from herself &, by stealth, Ken." Everyone looked at each other. They weren't expecting the last few lines. Davis walked up to the Digimon Emperor. Izzy walked up to the Digimon Emperor.

"Can you take us to her?" The Digimon Emperor raised an eyebrow. Then smiled.

"Certainly. Untie me first." Tai & Matt looked at each other, then at Wormmon. Wormmon nodded at the two, before they untied the Digimon Emperor. He sighed & looked toward the others. "Her base isn't in the Digital World, like my base was. It's in the real world, invisible to all except those who she wants the base seen by. And it's also in the air." The Digi-destined who don't have flying Digimon looked at each other & sighed. It looked like they were out of this little trip. Davis smiled. He punched the Digimon Emperor in the jaw & tackled him. "Davis, what are you doing?!"

"Taking off the item that allows you to control Ken, Digimon Emperor." He took the Crest of Darkness out of underneath Ken's shirt & took it off. The Digimon Emperor closed his eyes as he lost control. Everyone stared at Davis.

"Davis, why did you do that?" Veemon was looking at Davis & the crest in surprise. He smirked.

"This is what was allowing the Digimon Emperor to be in control & not Ken. If Wormmon digivolved with its help, he would also join the side of Darkness." At that moment, Ken started to wake up.

"If I become the Digimon Emperor once again, I will not hesitate in killing myself." Ken woke up quite surly. He got up and looked around. "How did I get here? What happened?" He realized that he had a bloody jaw. "And who punched me?" Everyone looked toward Davis. Ken saw the Crest of Darkness in his hands & sighed.

"Hey, Ken. What's the matter? Are you okay? I'm sorry I punched you in the jaw like that. I wouldn't have done that if I had a choice." Ken looked toward him in shock. He sighed & looked down. When he saw his shadow, he saw an image other than his own.

"Oh, no." Everyone looked toward Ken.

"Ken, are you alright?" He looked up toward Yolei, who had that worried look in her eyes.

"Yolei, if you look at my shadow & then look at me, then you'll know why I said 'Oh, no.'" Everyone did just that & gasped. The shadow wasn't a normal human shadow. As the matter of fact, it showed pitch black eyes.

Shadow: So, the DIgimon Emperor fails to bring the rest of the Digidestined to me. I knew you weren't going to be able to pull it off.

The shadow rose from the ground and became the Shadow Empress, Emperor & Guilmon. They smiled at the looks of fear on their faces.

Am I good or what? I'll bet that none of you expected the Shadow Empress to appear like that! Please, R&R.
