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.
Extra Notes: Implied nudity. Tamed Daisuke. Referred to sensory deprivation.
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 hadn't seen Daisuke's full face in so long that even he had almost forgotten it. But now it turned up to him, eyes only half-open, darting around to take in everything in the bedroom, until finally, slowly, settling on Kaiser himself. For a few moments, Daisuke just stared at him, as if drinking in the sight, his lips parted, eyes full of amazement. Then without warning, he buried himself in Kaiser's arms, quivering all over.

"Master," his voice half-muffled by how close they were, "you're beautiful."

Of everything he'd expected Daisuke to say, that wasn't anywhere on the list. He reached up a hand to pet his plaything. "You're handsome yourself." It was true, after all. Kaiser prided himself on being an excellent judge of everything and he wouldn't have chosen Daisuke if he weren't at least pleasing to the eyes.

He had other qualities of course, such as his unyielding loyalty once given – well, at least toward Kaiser – but those didn't take away from his attractiveness. If anything, they increased it.

But now Kaiser stroked and soothed his pet as Daisuke began the long process of adjusting to being able to see again. He would ask about V-mon sooner or later. Kaiser would grant his desire, of course. Daisuke remained his most loyal and precious asset, and that deserved a reward.

That would come in the future. For now, he had a warm and eagerly compliant pet in his arms, and he wasn't going to miss this opportunity for pleasure. He'd worked hard the last few weeks, finishing Daisuke's training in the arts of intimate pleasure as well as waging war against the Chosen. He didn't go out there often; all they would do if they saw him would be to demand Daisuke's release.

Really, he'd told them so many times that his pet was his now. What would it take to convince them, seeing it for themselves?

Even as his hands roamed down Daisuke's body, thrilling to how his pet arched willingly into his touch, he raced down that mental track. He had all of Daisuke's training recorded, of course. He'd watched it over and over, seeing the points where Daisuke faltered and needed to be attended to.

Not all of it, he decided. While he'd enjoyed every moment of it, it would be repetitive to them. Just enough so they understood.

Normally he didn't care at all about whether they would be entertained by a plan of his, much less how successfully he'd pulled it off, but given that this would instruct them on what he was capable of, and what Daisuke was like now, he would make certain they'd never question his word about his pet again.

He moved Daisuke around so he straddled his beautiful pet – perhaps one day to even be partner, or mate, and kissed him thoroughly. Daisuke stared back up at him, total acceptance in his eyes.

"You're mine, pet," Kaiser promised. "And I won't let anyone take you from me."

Notes: Ken, there are some things no one else wants to know. Really.
