"You will listen to me, or I will have to control you by force," Dragomon told Kari.
"As long as you don't hurt my family, fine," Kari responded coldly.
"If they get in my way, I will."
"What do you want?"
"Full control of the digital world. All digimon listening to me, fearing me."
"How do you expect to get that? Control spires and dark rings?"
"While those are good, I like the traditional route of fear. I will send them to the dark ocean unless they obey my every command," he paused for a minute., "Your power will help me connect to the dark ocean, to send them. You know the strength of your power; though you are light, you can brainwash, you can manipulate their minds, you can show them their greatest fears, and so much more, simply because you have such great power. Light or darkness can be used for good or evil. They are not always connected."
Kari stood there silent.
"And, I know you will comply, because you do not wish to harm your family."
Kari knew she was in trouble. How would she protect her family and save the digital world from Dragomon? She could attack him, but did she really have enough power to stop him?
She looked around her, she was in a dessert area, nothing she could hide behind, if she had to run. Nowhere to go, just miles of dessert. She had been so preoccupied by everything else that she just now took in her surroundings.
She couldn't attack him here. Even if she could defeat him, she would be lost in the dessert with no way out.
She finally addressed Dragomon's wishes, "where do you want to start?" Kari asked.
"How about we start easy, well, easy for fear, maybe not easy on your conscience," Dragomon laughed easily.
"What do you mean?" Kari questioned in fear.
"The primary village. It's best to start young. Gives the evil and fear more time to brew," Dragomon continued to laugh.
"That's so cruel," Kari cried.
"It's them or your family, your choice."
Kari choose to protect her family, and hoping that she'd come up with an idea on the way to the primary village.
'Maybe I can use my power to help them digivolve,' Kari thought to herself. That seemed like the best idea, but some of the eggs hadn't even hatched yet. Could she hatch them? If she got them to digivolve, would they all be able to defeat him?
She was lost in her thoughts when she arrived. Dragomon instantly started scaring the baby digimon. There was one, a poyomon, that didn't look scared. It looked at Kari, and she felt like she was connected to it somehow. Maybe she had met it before?
"I won't help you and you don't scare me," the Poyomon shouted at Dragomon.
"We can scare you. Kari?" Dragomon said, pushing Kari to use her powers to scare him.
She focused on the Poyomon, trying to get into its mind. She had been to the dark ocean enough times that she was sure she could instill fear into the poor poyomon. She hated to have to do it, but she knew they could be saved soon.
After a minute of focus, she started glowing and reached forward to touch the poyomon's head. In a matter of seconds, she saw Wizardmon, saving her and Gatomon. She also felt a sense of trust in the little digimon. She decided to put her plan into action and at least digivolve this one. She used her power and soon enough, the little digimon started digivolving, and digivolving, finally landing on Wizardmon.
"What did you do?" Dragomon scowled and threw Kari back, knocking her out.
"You will not hurt my friend!" Wizardmon shouted, attacking Dragomon.
