Notes: In the setting of this story, these are the differing points: the Chosen are roughly five years older than in canon, meaning that Ken, Daisuke, Takeru, & Hikari are sixteen, while Miyako is seventeen, and Iori is fourteen. There are some other differences, but those will be revealed during the course of the story. Except for this: this story will involve vampires. It begins in episode 2, once Daisuke's been captured.
Summary: On his second trip to the Digital World, Daisuke is captured by the Kaiser. Time to learn a little about the guy he's just started fighting. Like the fact he has sharp, pointy teeth and a thirst for more than conquest.
Kaiser stroked his fingers through Daisuke's hair, pleased to see the other drink up his commands like the most delicious of spring waters. He'd never met someone so utterly willing and eager to do as he was told. Even the Digimon needed to be forced to obey him and the minute their Rings broke, they left.
He didn't have a Ring on Daisuke – he didn't know if they would affect humans and he had other ways to get them to do as he wished – but Daisuke obeyed him eagerly regardless.
Perhaps he wouldn't if Kaiser hadn't feasted on his blood and manipulated his mind. But Kaiser had and Daisuke did and it was time to set up the next stage of the show.
"Master," Wormmon murmured, peering in. "The spies came back. Two of the other humans have Digimentals now."
Kaiser pursed his lips, thinking. He knew what he wanted to do but certain details remained undecided. "Take V-mon to the cliffs and have him chained up there. I'll deal with Motomiya myself."
Wormmon nodded and hurried away. He was a loyal little bug, though not nearly as useful for fighting as Kaiser could've wanted. Still, he made up for it in other ways.
Now Kaiser turned back to Daisuke, kneeling so humbly and beautifully as his new master's feet. Kaiser tilted the other's head up to look into his glazed eyes.
"Remember, Motomiya Daisuke, that no one is to know that you serve me now. That will include you defeating some of my slaves, but I will understand and you are forgiven already."
He stroked the side of Daisuke's face, pleased to see the other leaning into his touch. Less than an hour had elapsed since he'd taken him prisoner and already Daisuke knew who his master was and what his new place in the world was.
"Yes, master," Daisuke murmured, and Kaiser petted him in approval. He'd seldom given thoughts to anything romantic or even carnal, but Daisuke pleased him so much that he found himself thinking of other needs his new slave could fill once these new opponents had been cleared out of his way.
Daisuke arched into his touch and Kaiser ran his fingers down his slave's cheek and cupped his chin.
"Make me happy, Daisuke, and I will make you happy. Do you understand?"
A small, kitten-ish mew slipped out from between Daisuke's lips at the words.
"I understand, master."
Kaiser bent and pressed his lips against Daisuke's forehead. He would save a true kiss and more praise for when this piddling little skirmish – he refused to call such a thing a war – would be over with.
It surely couldn't take that long. No more than a handful of days at most.
But now, it was time to send Daisuke back to those who called themselves his friends. And just in case they were cannier than he thought – which he doubted – Kaiser would be there to watch this 'rescue'.
He did love a good show.
To Be Continued
Notes: Any relationship upgrades (i.e., Kaiser and Daisuke doing the horizontal mambo) will not happen until the Chosen know who Kaiser really is. And what he really is. So they can be properly horrified. So, in-story, that's at least a couple of months.
