When we last left the Digi-Destined, T.K. found out that Darrian wasn't what he

seemed. The Digi-Destined have been attempting to find a way to get to T.K., and

something has happened to Kari. Now without further prolonging of the next chapter of

the Paradox Saga here is the third part.

"I have to save my friends!" T.K. yelled

"T.K. That's easier said than done. First off, how did you get here?" Evan said in a

calming manner knowing T.K.'s distress at this news of his friends demise

"I'm sorry..."

"For what T.K.?"

"I shouldn't be mad at you, but I have to help them." And in a low voice

incoherent to Evan, "I have to save her."

Meanwhile in the computer room Darrian has been plotting his quick strategy for

remedying the unanticipated departure of T.K. through the vortex. Darrian had one thing

going for him in knowing that Kari was already feeling his scheme in action. Kari felt

unable to control her mind at times and other times were she began to slip into a state of

unconsciousness even though she never fell asleep.

"Come on already! Don't you have any ideas?"

"Matt I know you want to desperately find him, but we can't rush this. If my

calculations are off even the slightest we'll not only miss the location of T.K., but we

could also miss when he arrived by seconds or milleniums."

"I just can't sit back and do nothing Darrian. My brother is missing and I need to

get to him."

"Matt maybe you should take a walk." Tai said trying to help

"Yes, I think that might be a good idea for all of us." Izzy stated

"But what about T.K.? While we're out he'll still be in another time wondering if

we're looking for him." Matt said anxiously

"You're not thinking fourth dimensionally Matt." Darrian replied

"Huh?" Everyone said with the exception of Izzy, Yolei, and Ken

"Of course!" Izzy, Yolei, and Ken replied, "No matter when we figure it out we

can arrive at the same frame of time so that no time has passed. So let's all take a little

breather for an hour and meet back here."

At this point everyone left the room, within five minutes Darrian arrived at

Odaiba park. Darrian knew that Kari would follow him, but he had realized that Sora,

Mimi, and Yolei also followed him at a distance. They still seemed to have a crush on

him and he was prepared to take advantage of this. Even with the unexpected guests he

didn't hesitate to put his plan into action. "Ah decisions, decisions. Should I do this

separately or as a group. I think divide and conquer will be the best strategy right now.

Isn't history the greatest teacher there is, especially when you're plotting the demise of an

enemy." Darrian thought to himself.

Darrian made himself scarce in a hurry, which in turn gave the girls a decision to

make. "I wonder if he just wants to be alone?" Yolei said.

"Maybe, but come on we don't know the first thing about him..." Sora said.

"Yeah, like if he has a girlfriend." Mimi interjected.

"If we split up we'll have a better chance of finding him. Then, if we do happen to

come upon him (Sora smiled), we'll be able to ask him some questions."

"Like if he has a girlfriend!" Mimi exclaimed.

"Mimi!!!" Yolei and Sora replied.

"Oh come on. He's hot and you know it." Mimi, Sora, Yolei and Kari all nodded

on agreement and went their separate ways.

The first to find Darrian was Kari or actually he found her since he followed her.

"Ah my dear Kari how are you doing?" Darrian asked, but received no reply. "Well I

didn't expect a response to be honest with you. Well while you're getting acquainted to

your new evil persona. However, I must bid you goodbye for a bit while I stop some of

our enemies that would try to stop us. I trust you'll stay put until I return." Kari nodded

yes. "Good. I'll see you soon my Queen." And he left without another word just as

quickly as he appeared.

"Let's begin with an easy one." Darrian muttered to himself as he came upon

Mimi. Then he ran around the block and waited for her to notice him in an alley.

"This must be my lucky day. I found him first." Mimi said excitedly to herself.

Then she began to turn and walk into the alley where he was standing and looking at a

wall without making her aware that he knew she was there.

"What are you looking at?" Mimi asked him curiously just to get a conversation

going.

"Oh. Hi Mimi. Not much just this wall. It has some sentimental value to me

because it was the first place I..."

"You what? Come on you can tell me." Mimi asked not aware that he was pulling

out some sort of gun from his back pocket.

"It's the first place I began my life as I guess you would call it a time traveler

since this wall, in my time, was the first rift location I went through." Mimi was looking

closely at the wall and just then he took the gun and pulled the trigger and a stream of

liquid hit her in the back. When she turned around to look at him he fired again this time

hitting her in the front.

"What is this?" Mimi asked

"Oh just a little invention of mine." Darrian replied snidely.

"Why?"

"Oh you'll see." He smirked.

Mimi could feel the liquid had completely drenched her from her shirt to her pants

and had made them pretty easy to see through. She also noticed that her clothes were

tightening on her make it hard to breath and even harder to move. Darrian just looked on

with contempt as he watched his second phase of his plan work with delight. You could

now see every curve of her body from the muscles of her legs to her bellybutton. Also her

breasts seemed to become perfect bullets making the show quite delectable for Darrian.

"Well now that the potion has done it's main job of immobilizing you, I'll start

telling you what else you can expect. You see this is kinetic resistant and heat resistant,

which means that movement of you're body like breathing bigger than shallow breaths as

well as just your body heat will make this tighten against your body even more. I know

that you might think that's impossible, but it can and furthermore it could cause your

clothes to suffocate or worse crush you to death." Darrian laughed and then continued,

"Well now that I have you I'll go and get your other friends to join you in this torment

and don't worry because you'll all be together when I finish so you can suffer together."

Darrian then went and did this process over again with Sora and Yolei, after which he

took them and Mimi to and abandoned factory where he would lay them face up on their

backs in order to ensure that they would be able to breath as well as could be expected.

"Now that we're all one big happy family I'll finish telling you this little tidbit. I

can undo the effect with this little box, which emits a frequency that counters the resistant

effect, however if I should do this you must do what I say or I won't be lenient again and

you'll return to this state of motionless torment with just the flip of a switch which will

turn off the frequency. If you understand and agree just blink twice." He watched their

faces and saw that they agreed. He then flipped the switch and they quickly began

breathing heavily since they could now move. While they were panting to try to get air

back into their lungs he began to speak, "Now ladies, this is what we're going to do..."

"Alright, now that I know how you ended up here we have some problems to take

care of."

"Like what Evan?"

"Well T.K., as you know the vortex that got you here was opened by Darrian's

Digi-mechanism."

"Right the evil form of the Digi-vice."

"Well you should be able to open the same type of vortex back, but that might not

do you any good."

"How come Evan?"

"Darrian knows that you might come back to stop him now, and trust me T.K. he

would easily take you down. Hmm..."

"What is it Evan?

"Well he knows a form of martial arts much more advanced than any of your

time."

"I think I saw him use it on Krell."

"He probably did, knowing him he wouldn't hesitate to show off. Maybe we can

use that to our advantage. When he fights you'll have to defend yourself by forcing him to

fight himself."

"I don't follow you."

"Let me put it this way. If he fights and misses by hitting other things, such as

walls, will hurt him more than you might be able to."

"Alright let's save my friends. Digi-vortex open!!!" All of a sudden a new portal

opened in front of T.K. "Thanks Evan for your help and hopefully history will turn out

for the better. Good-bye!" T.K. jumped through the portal and it closed right behind him.

"Good luck my friend." Evan said
