This has nothing to do with your usual activities, the voice in his head whispers and Seth blinks as his face is soaked in fresh spray from the ocean Seadramon is quickly traveling. This is all for me.

Seth wants to say something, command Seadramon to turn back around, but he can't- this silver creature has taken over, and he can't even lift an arm without its approval. "Please," he says- the only thing he can do, sometimes, is speak, and every time he realizes he can, he devolves back into begging and pleading. "Please let me go. I- I can't..." His thoughts are all over the place, making it hard to formulate proper sentences.

The creature within ignores him, as always, and Seth struggles just to keep track of where they're at. "Close," the voice whispers to him, taunting and eager. "So close, I can taste it. Where are you, you smug bastard? I know you tried to take control after my defeat. As if this place is yours to take..."

Seth tries to speak again, but his control has lapsed once more, and he waits and watches the actions through his own eyes, feeling so strange and disconnected as his body does things he'd never, ever authorize. Like ordering Seadramon to swim as quickly as it can towards the Dark Sea in order to defeat a digimon there or else. Like threatening to disembowl Seth if his partner didn't do as demanded of it.

So Seth isn't having a very good time with all of this, no. Neither is Seadramon, if the look in his wild blue eye is any indication. The only one who seems content, almost deliriously thrilled, with all of this, is the silver creature within him. Seth is pretty sure it's the Kyubimon they defeated not that long ago, but he can't get a straight answer from the creature within him now. Please, he pleads, unsure if the creature can hear his thoughts as well. Please let me go, stop hurting people. I don't want to do this-"

And then a turtle like creature appears in the distance and Seth exhales sharply as pleasure floods his system, the digimon spurring Seadramon on towards the spot. "ATTACK!" he yells, and immediately Archelomon lunges forward, flippers ready and sharp for them. Not only does it leave them in danger, mid-ocean battles never that great to begin with, but it also takes away Seadramon's options as he drops back, avoiding the attack that wends through the water with enough force to part it for what feels like a full minute before the water fills back in, hides the scar bit into the sea floor. Seth's fear grows as Seadramon lunges forward, sweeping ice out over the water, along the side of Archelomon's body.

Archelomon screams out in pain, tries to attack once more, but then the force within Seth once more comes to the forefront, silver fading through Seth's vision- and then Seadramon digivolves, MegaSeadramon hovering over the water before crashing into it. His eyes are vicious, a strange mix of silver and blue, and Archelomon hesitates, just long enough for MegaSeadramon to fall upon him, wrapping his body around him and squeezing tightly. Archelomon's mouth falls open in a silent wail of agony as MegaSeadramon slams forward, his horn slipping beneath his shell and shredding through the turtle type creature's body, data raining down upon them as Archelomon shatters into pieces faster than Seth thinks he's ever seen.

As laughter pours from Seth's lips, drawn by the manic pleasure of the digimon within, Seth struggles desperately. Please let me out! Don't do this!

But the laughter continues, despite the few tears leaking down Seth's face, as the silver creature ignores everything but his own delight at having one less creature daring to question his strength and authority in this world.
