"Who are you?" asks a deep voice, it can only be heard by Taichi, who was strapped to a chair in a pitch black room. The only source of light was the spotlight positioned right on top of him. A mechanical apparatus was being attached to his head. Two halves of one metal circle attached itself around his cranium as Taichi muttered, "Admiral Taichi Yagami of the Coalition,"

And the deep voice responded, "Wrong," then a whizzing sound could be heard, then Taichi felt as if his head was on fire, and screamed in agony, the deep voice continued, "You are part of the Dark, You are us,"

"Now who are you?" the deep voice asked again, but Taichi refused to be waver, "I am Admiral Yagami of the Coalition!"

"Wrong!" the deep voice yelled, followed by a whizzing sound and more screams of pain. The deep voice continued, "You part of the Dark, You are us,"

"Who are you?" the deep voice asked, this time Taichi asked, "Why don't you possess me like the rest of your victims?"

The deep voice answered, "You are not them, You are us,"

Taichi, confused by the response, asked another question, "And just what is 'us'?"

The deep voice answered, "We are who we are, we created the Digital World, we will destroy the Digital World, and create a new one in its place,"

Taichi corrected the deep voice, "You didn't create the Digital World, a computer did-" before he could finish, the whizzing sound came again, and this time his entire body felt like it was on fire. Taichi tried to withstand it this time, but ended up shrieking in anguish.

"We created the Digital World! And we will destroy it!" the deep voice shouted, and then demanded an answer, "Who are you?"

Taichi breathed heavily as he told the deep voice, "Go to hell,"

The whizzing sound intensified, as well as the pain that Taichi experienced. The pain was prolonged for 5 minutes, when it stopped Taichi said, "The Digidestined destroyed you once, we can destroy you again,"

The deep voice started to laugh as it said, "You never destroyed us! We were always alive, we always existed, and you cannot destroy the Dark! Because you are the Dark!"

Taichi yelled back, "I'm not part of the Dark!"

As the torture resumed the deep voice yelled, "Yes you are! You represent the Dark! You are destined to be with us!"

While in excruciating pain, Taichi managed to say, "Never!"

The whizzing sound, became more high-pitched, as the deep voice shouted, "You are the Dark, Taichi! You will lead us to victory!"

"What?" screamed Taichi, while bearing the agonizing pain.

"You are the Dark! You are the Dark!"

"No… not possible," Taichi started to trail off into a trans, and nearly fainted from the torture.

"Lead us, Taichi, our Lord. Lead us to victory! Lead the Dark to victory!"

"Lord? What?" All he could hear was the deep voice, he couldn't hear anything else, he couldn't think of anything else except what the deep voice yelled.

"Lord Yagami, our Lord! We shall defeat our enemies! Lead the Dark to victory!"

"How can I? It doesn't make sense!"

"You are what you are! You are our Lord! It needs not sense! So long as we are victorious!"

"No, it-it cannot be possible!"

"Lead us! Lead us, Our Lord!"

Taichi mustered up the rest of his strength, to yell out before he fainted, "NOOO!"

After a while, Taichi found himself in the same room, with the same spotlight glaring from above, and still attached to the same torture device. Except, he felt different then from before. He heard the whizzing sound, and yet, it did not inflict pain, in fact it felt good. As if, it was meant to feel good. The deep voice again soothing this time asked, "Do you see, Our Lord! Do you see? We do not want to harm you, Our Lord! We want to help you!"

Taichi blinked for awhile, and swallowed every word the deep voice said. He understood now, he could feel the Dark's presence, in fact, he could almost… feel his presence. His and the Dark's presence intermingled with each other, but that cannot describe the feeling Taichi experienced. But it was wonderful. And the deep voice politely inquired Taichi, "Who are you?"

And Taichi took in a deep breath and said calmly, "I am the Dark. Your Lord, Your Master,"

"Yes," the deep voice agreed, "Lead us, my Lord! Lead us, to victory! We will be triumphant!"
