Here's another chapter in short time, I'm on holiday so this might keep up for a while, a week or so. No guaruntees but it's possible. Anyway, here's the continuation of the Evil Sakura arc. Enjoy and thank you to everyone who's voted on my poll, please continue to do so!
I typed steadily working on my latest project, one of Ken's Dark Ring's for Humans. From what I could gather hacking his files it seemed that it was designed specifically for me using my Digivice to channel the signal to my body given my none data form. It explained why Ken had left me with my Digivice back at his base but this time I wasn't going to make his mistakes. Instead of a Digivice I could use the Dark Spore as a transmitter. Cause this was only for Ken. The others I would have to think of a different tactic, maybe making my own simple spores to use instead. I paused as I heard a low moan and glanced towards the altar I was using as Ken's bed. The black haired boy groaned again clearly coming to so I closed the screen and stood up from my 'throne'. 'Getting up?' I asked amused by the obvious pain he was in after being knocked out. I saw him freeze before sitting up swiftly. He gave a startled glance as he looked around the room. He frowned obviously recognising the altered temple. He swung his legs so they touched the floor clearly intending to get up. I smirked and put a finger on his lips. 'Now now, you say there like a good boy and your partner won't get hurt.' I warned with an innocent smile. He glared at me and grabbed my wrist pulling my hand away. I just pointed to a screen I summoned that showed the injured Wormmon in one of my cells. 'Ah ah, cross me and it will be the bug that gets it.' I said my tone lilting slightly as I chuckled and wagged my finger in a scolding manner. Ken paled as his eyes widened. He scowled but didn't make an effort to get up again. I grinned and with a single finger traced his frowning lips. 'Perfect.' I muttered softly before kissing his lips firmly. He tensed but I felt his hand lift up to knot itself in my black tresses with ease. I pushed him back, not that he resisted, so he was lying back on the altar with me on top of him still kissing him. Then I smirked and grabbed his wrists pulling them to his sides and using my powers to control everything made of data in this space to create half cuffs that held them to the alter. I quickly made some for his ankles as well. 'What the…Sakura!' He yelled as I stood up. I watched has he flexed his wrists trying to break free of the bonds. I licked my lips letting my eyes drink in his struggling form.
'Ken, I have no intention of making your mistakes. You're a Digidestined. I'd have to pretty stupid to let you wander round my base freely.' I mocked as I sat beside him and cupped his cheek with my hand. I saw his eyes defiantly glaring at me, but they had a hidden panic that I loved to see in him. I lent forward and licked his ear making him yell from shock as my cool saliva tickled the tiny hairs in it. I gave it a small bite on the lobe before pulling back. 'You behave and maybe I'll treat you again.' I whispered letting my breath tickle the assaulted ear before returning to my throne. I could hear every heavy breath Ken took as he tried to control his panic. Ignoring when he turned his head to look at me I resumed my work on the Dark Rings starting to design the program to alter the dark spores. It was going to hurt him. That much was obvious. The dark spores were directly connected to us and any attempt to alter them would cause resistance that we'd feel through the nerve system in our bodies. I glanced at Ken to see him looking at me with far more anger than he'd ever done before. Well as I already had him mad at me why not keep it up, I thought continuing my work. Besides, I could just consider it pay back for his time as the Emperor. Where did that come from, I asked myself startled. I'd never blamed Ken for his actions back then, never. The thought was vanished as soon as it started and I resumed typing like nothing happened. Still, I couldn't remove the unease that something was wrong.
'And in latest news, another famous teen has vanished as the disappearance of Ken Ichijouji, who went missing earlier this year in a separate incident, has been reported. This case coincides with the disappearance of Sakura Tenshi who is host to the popular Youth News program on Tamachi TV. The two were last seen near Ichijouji's school and it is believed that the disappearances are linked. Police are asking for anyone with information to contact the number on screen.' I clicked off the news report sighing with boredom. So they weren't even giving a story then letting the police get involved. They obviously weren't sure of how quickly they could defeat me and focusing on that effort rather than covering up the incident. I turned to look at Ken who was sleeping on the altar. Standing up I walked over and caressed his cheek gently. I'd removed the cuffs once he fell asleep not really liking having to use them. He didn't wake but he did lean into my touch making me smile. He seemed so peaceful in his sleep, not a care in the world. I knew it wouldn't last when he awoke and decided to enjoy this innocent side a little longer. Unfortunately luck wasn't on my side as the alarm when off. I narrowed my eyes as Ken stirred and clicked my fingers bringing forth an image of the problem. 'Guys.' Ken groaned as he looked at the image. Sure enough the Digidestined were taking another journey into to Digital World hunting for Ken and me.
'Now Ken, we should greet them since they came all this way.' I scolded mockingly grabbing his ear just like a mad parent would. He winced and whimpered giving me a pleading look so I decided I'd be nice and let go. Turning back to the screen I reached forward and touched the air bringing another forth, this one a map of the dungeons. I scanned the list looking for an appropriate option. 'Let's go for something classic, Tyrannomon attack!' I ordered pressing the button and letting a swarm of the dinosaur Digimon free to obey. Ken gave a weak chuckle shaking his head. He was still holding his ear in his hand.
'Tyrannomon? Not very original.' He pointed out with a small smirk. I glared at him for daring to challenge me.
'Originality isn't always best. Sometimes the more effective methods are better.' I countered coldly. He gulped and lent back obviously seeing he'd angered me. I huffed and stood up striding over to my throne. I sat down and moved so I swung my legs over the side and hung my head back over the other letting my hair fall down. I was surprised when Ken came up behind me and knelt down at the side my head was. Lifting it up I saw him smile gently as he supported the head and kissed my forehead. I sighed and closed my eyes. A part of me knew he was distracting me from the battle so I wouldn't be able to prevent the Digidestined winning but I didn't really care. I let out a moan as he started to run his hands though my hair massaging my scalp. 'I'm not a weak child anymore either.' He whispered softly. I opened my eyes to meet his and saw the smirk on his face. So that was it, a battle of will's between us, to see who would be dominant in this clash. Well if it was going like this it would certainly be, enjoyable.
I lent against Ken's chest as I watched two Elecmon battle it out in my arena. I could feel Ken wince with every hit as he turned away from the scene below. Currently we were outside resting on a comfortable recliner under an awning to shade us from the desert sun. I'd expected Ken to be disturbed by the battle and was pleased to see I was right. It wouldn't belong before he begged me to stop, and I planned on taking full advantage of the opportunity. 'Sakura.' Ken spoke to get my attention. I hid my smirk as I turned to him.
'Yes?' I asked pleasantly hiding my eagerness. He narrowed his eyes; I'd forgotten that I couldn't hide anything from him.
'You monster, you planed this just to get to me.' He hissed realising the truth much sooner than I'd anticipated. I gasped as I felt a hard shove. Ken was still stronger than me and easily pushed me off him and onto the ground. I watched him head quickly into the main temple. Frowning at his reaction, since when did Ken resort to violence, I clicked my fingers and stopped the fight. Sending the Digimon Slaves back to their cells I rushed after Ken wanting to get to the bottom of this. I paused as I heard chocked sobs from one of the side rooms in the place and looked inside through the door. Ken was curled up into a ball in the corner crying so hard it shook his whole frame. I gulped silently realising I'd hurt him badly. I hadn't meant to, it gone too far. I sighed and turned walking away. Maybe I was wrong when I analysed the Emperor's actions. Maybe some of his mistakes were actually his way of protecting me. I sighed as I brought up the Dark Ring program. I wouldn't delete it; instead I'd focus on designing it for the other Digidestined instead. I realised now that Ken would never risk harming me. Even if it meant he had to fight the other Digidestined he would protect me first and foremost. That made the program for him unnecessary, especially considering the pain it would cause. I heard Ken enter and looked up. I expected him to go to the Altar and pretend to sleep so he surprised me when he came over and sat on the ground next to me. He rested his head against my leg and closed his eyes. I rested my hand on his head so he knew I was there. I think he did know cause he relaxed and went to sleep easily. I smiled at the fact he didn't hate me, even if I was evil. Turning back to the monitors I focused on my task, conquering the Digital World.
