"Let's go get Agumon and Gabumon. We'll need them to rescue Kari," Tai said as they walked down the stairs of the base.

"We don't know where they are," Matt responded.

"I do," Kiara whispered.

"How do you know?" Ken asked his daughter.

"I could see everything, I just couldn't do anything about it," she responded.

"What is she talking about?" Tai asked.

Ken attempted to explain what he had known, "She was taken over Dragomon, the one from the dark ocean who wanted Kari as his queen. He didn't have enough power to get to the digital world but through her, he was brought here. Kari gave him his own body to let Kiara free. However, Kari gave herself up as prisoner."

"Is she a digidestined?" Matt asked.

The group started walking in the direction Kiara pointed to.

"Apparently she has the powers of darkness, which isn't evil, just the opposite of light," Ken said.

Kiara remembered the necklace and digivice that were in her pocket. She grabbed them and looked at them. Gatomon saw and pulled attention to Kiara, "she's a digidestined alright. Who is your digimon?"

Kiara shrugged in response.

"Maybe her digimon has the power to save Kari," Wormmon suggested.

"Well, let's go get our digimon and we'll attack. Where did they even go?" Tai asked.

"They disappeared. Probably the dark ocean, until he finds a new hiding place, now that we know about the base," Ken told the group.

"I was hoping to never see that place again," Wormmon whispered.

"I know buddy, we'll destroy it again, for good this time," Ken answered.

After a moment of silence Kiara asked, "dad?"

"Yes Kiara? Are you doing ok? Do you want to rest?" He stopped and looked at her worried.

"I'm fine, we should find mom. I just was wondering something, if it's ok to ask," she replied.

"Go ahead."

"Who is the Digimon Kaiser and why did Dragomon keep calling you that?"

"Whoa, let's stop for rest, and we'll give them a minute," Matt pulled Tai, Gatomon, and Wormmon away as Ken got down on his knees to be eye level with Kiara.

After a minute of trying to come up with the words, Ken started his story; "A long time ago, when I was a very young boy, I had a brother. He passed away and I was very angry with the world. A digivice had come through the computer and I ended up going to the dark ocean. I was hit by a dark spore. The spore took my anger and made it even bigger. It clouded my mind and made me a bad person."

He was having trouble explaining it, but Kiara kept up with his story.

"That spore made me the Digimon Kaiser. I hurt a lot of digimon in a quest to take over the digital world. I thought it was a game for me to conquer," Ken put his head down in shame, and to try to hide the tears that were welling up in his eyes. He had come a long way since then, but there were times the past still haunted him.

After a moment Kiara responded, "Everyone forgave you. You shouldn't blame yourself. You don't blame me for what Dragomon did in my body, so why would you blame yourself for what the spore did to you?"

"Sometimes the young are wiser than people give credit for," Wormmon said as he crawled up to Ken.

After a minute Ken got up, "Thanks. Let's go get your mom back."

The group then headed off to find Agumon and Gabumon.
