The continuation of my on-going epic lemon, and the start of the third epic lemon. It takes place at the end of season two, and the Tamers where transported before the start of the Deva saga. For simplistic sakes, the young Izzy will now be referred to as Emperor Izzy. The alternate version of Gamma-Matt Lillymon and Cody are Gamma-Matt, Epsilon-Lillymon, and Delta-Cody. Oh and I wrote a whole chapter, and damn it, it got deleted! Ah well, this one is different from the first, and I am doing this for Outlaw Torn, who likes crossbreeding.

End Game:

Fated Circle

Chapter 40

Time

"Come on..." Kari had taken off her hairpin, and was unscrewing the key card slot. Not one to be willingly confined, she had immediately went to work trying to escape Emperor Izzy's cell. Kari knew very little about electronics, and even after she got this plate off, she had no idea how she was going to rewire it. And even then, she knew she was several stories high, with no way down, in a base full of digimon, and a super powered mad Izzy clone. But she would not give up. Just as Kari was taking out the final screw the door slid open. "Huh?" Kari jumped back as Palmon came running in. "Palmon?"

"Kari!" Palmon looked up at Kari. "Are you ok? Never mind, we need to escape!"

Kari looked down at Palmon. "What did you and Mimi buy me for my last birthday party?"

"What?" Palmon grabbed Kari's hand. "We have no time for games!"

"Stuff it Epsilon." Kari snatched her hand away. "I am not interested in playing your games anymore."

Palmon looked up, and let out a long sigh. "I so much liked it better when you digidestined fell for that unconditionally." Epsilon-Palmon jumped up and sat on the bunk. "I mean, you should have seen Greymon's face when I knocked him down!" Epsilon-Palmon laughed. "Or Gomamon, having his dear sweet pal Palmon suddenly bang him like that."

Kari had a look of disgust on her face. "I like Myotismon. At least his evil is apparent."

"I do to. Man you can bounce a quarter on those abs of his." Epsilon-Palmon fanned herself with her hand.

"So what the hell do you want?' Kari snapped. She was getting an image of Myotismon and Palmon she did not want in her head.

"Well truth be told? I was bored. So I was going to stage a phoney rescue, then half way out, we get jumped by some Gazimon, and they take turns raping and violating you in various ways." Epsilon-Palmon let out a little moan. "You do realize there is now a half a dozen horny Gazimon waiting for me to bring you around the next corner."

Kari was speechless for a second. "You sick bitch."

"Yes, that term has been passed around more than once." Epsilon-Palmon flipped on her stomach, lying on the cot with her legs pointed up and her head in her hands. "But when you ran the world like I did, you get bored."

"Bored?" Kari sneered. "I can't believe you are Palmon."

"That is the sweetest thing." Palmon smiled looking at Kari. "You wonder if you have it in you. To be like me."

"I could never..."

"Be like me, yeah I know." Palmon sighed. "And tell me, before you met me, did you think Palmon could be like me? Or Izzy like Emperor Izzy? Or Cody like Delta-Cody?"

"... No." Kari admitted. Seeing Delta-Cody like that, Izzy with a look of pure hate, Palmon sick... her best friends, nothing more than killers and monsters.

"You see? The brighter the picture, the darker the negative." Epsilon-Palmon replied. "But anyway I am bored. And you ruined my Gazimon rape."

Kari crossed her legs. "So what now? I know I have no choice, but I am not going to amuse you."

"Aw...I thought we could play a game." Epsilon-Palmon batted her eyes widely. "You know, like two girlfriends, hanging out." Kari just kept her mouth closed. She had toughened up over the last five years, and she was determined not to show the fear she felt. "Well if you don't want to play, I can go grab those Gazimon, if they haven't started fucking each other."

"I'll play." Kari said defeated.

"Great!" Epsilon-Palmon smiled, letting out a giggle. "And I'll even let you ask me first. Oh, and don't try asking me to let you go."

Kari figured as much. But she could get some answers this way. "Truth or Dare."

"Dare." Epsilon-Palmon licked her lips. "And make me do something good."

(God she is sick.) Kari thought for a second. "Let me slap you once in the face."

Epsilon-Palmon looked at Kari, the laughed. "You bitch." Epsilon-Palmon stood on the bed. "Fine then, give me your best shot."

Kari pulled her hand back, and with more force than she hit anybody, slapped Epsilon-Palmon on the face. THWACK! Epsilon-Palmon's head lurched to the side. But Epsilon-Palmon was laughing. "Oh yes I like it rough." Epsilon-Palmon rubbed her chin. "Not bad for a human girl, but did you really think you could hurt me like that?"

"No but it felt good." Kari snapped back.

"Oh I have other ways of making you feel good." Epsilon-Palmon licked her lips. "It seems you have a bit of evil in you. Now then, Truth or Dare."

"Truth." Kari figured out what the dares would lead to.

"Name me anyone you fucked." Epsilon-Palmon smiled. "An don't like to me. I hate it when people lie to me. Not only that, but I would have to make your choice a dare then, my choice of dare."

(Great. Hopefully she'll get bored if I keep saying truth.) "TK was my first." Kari admitted. "And when I was under some mind control, Gabumon and Gatomon."

"Oh you little slut you. Digimon and lesbian." Epsilon-Palmon pretended to swoon. "I am impressed." Epsilon-Palmon was impressed. Kari was not frightened, or hiding it well.

"Truth or Dare." Kari growled, not wanting to give Epsilon the chance to make light of her past sex life.

"Truth." Epsilon-Palmon sighed. "It looks like you aren't going to get me to do anything fun anyway."

"What happened to Kari on my world?" Kari needed to know this. Could she... have turned out like this? Evil, corrupt?

"Killed." Epsilon-Palmon sighed. "What a waste. If I had know she'd turn out like you..." Epsilon-Palmon licked her lips.

Kari shuddered, but held herself. "How'd she die?"

"I thought I was done." Palmon eyed Kari closely.

"You didn't fully answer my question." Kari snapped back. "Play fair now."

(Boy, she has guts!) Epsilon-Palmon smirked. "Fine. Izzy helped Myotismon capture you in our world. And then Myotismon had our Gatomon, now Blackgatomon, kill you. Happy?"

Kari looked down, for the first time showing some raw emotion. "Gatomon.... killed me? Honest?"

"Cross my heart." Epsilon-Palmon made an x on her chest.

"So that why Blackgatomon managed to scare Gatomon so much..." Kari remember the terror on Gatomon's face back on the beach. The pure terror.

"Yup." Epsilon-Palmon nodded. "Gatomon saw what she could have been. Same thing for your ass-wipe Palmon from this dimension. Anyway, Truth or Dare?"

"Truth." Kari wasn't foolish enough to say dare with a psycho perverted version of Palmon.

"Ex..cuse me?" A Gazimon's head appeared from the side of the door, black spiral wrapped around his tail..

"Oh yes, how are you Gazimon doing?" Epsilon-Palmon looked causally to the door.

"Err, we were just worried about you, you know the plan..." Gazimon was lying. The black spire on his tail made him evil and obedient, but Epsilon-Palmon promised them they'd have some fun with Kari..

"Translation, you Gazimon are all standing out there with your dicks out waiting for some young cunt here." Epsilon-Palmon waved a finger at the Gazimon. "Please, I am smarter than that. But anyway Kari, about truth or dare...." Epsilon-Palmon looked at the Gazimon. "What you rather do? Blow this Gazimon, or have him fuck you?"

"Hey! This I said truth!" Kari snapped back.

"And I want the truth. Would you rather me order this Gazimon to fuck you, or would you give him a little oral treatment?" Epsilon-Palmon smiled mischievously. "You didn't think I'd let you get off that easily?

Kari glared at Epsilon-Palmon, wanting to strike her, but she knew Epsilon-Palmon was ready for this possibility. She could digivolve in a second, and she knew how to fight. "I'll... suck him." Kari grinded her teeth.

Gazimon got a wicked grin on his face. "Now don't be afraid." Gazimon stood with his hands on his hips, his cock bouncing up and down. "It won't bite you."

Kari cast a very angry glance at Epsilon-Palmon. Epsilon-Palmon just licked her fingers, waiting. "Sick freak..." Kari grumbled as she grabbed the Gazimon's small dick sticking out from his grey fur as he stood beside the bunk.

"You got such pretty lips." Gazimon smirked as he brushed Kari's hair. "I can't wait till my dick is inside them. GAH!" Kari suddenly squeezed Gazimon's balls tightly, causing Kari to smirk.

THWACK! "AAhh!" Kari felt a stinging sensation on her butt.

"Now who said you could hurt him?" Epsilon-Palmon retracted her finger, which she extended to whip Kari.

Kari rubbed her ass cheek, which was throbbing now. "You didn't say I couldn't."

(I admire this kid. If Izzy allowed me to seriously hurt her, it would be fun trying to break her.) "Ok. No more hurting unless I say so. now suck him. And don't bite." Epsilon-Palmon warned.

"Fine." Kari slid off the bunk, getting on her knees. Gazimon was quite short, so she had to stoop to accommodate him.

"now no hands this time. Just that pretty mouth of yours." Gazimon smirked as Kari but her head at his waist.

(Think of anything else...) Kari closed her eyes and opened her mouth. Gazimon took the incentive, and inserted his entire cock in Kari's mouth. "Mmmpph!" Kari grunted as Gazimon's fur brushed against her nose.

"Mmm bet you haven't done that for a while." Epsilon-Palmon still lay on the cot, watching the show. She loved voyeurism, especially when forced on some poor unsuspecting girl. Or boy. Epsilon-Palmon was big into equal rights. She'd screw a female as quick as a male.

Kari didn't open her eyes, focusing on a tongue depressor, or a banana, or anything else. Gazimon's dick had a strong odour and taste, making the illusion hard to make. "Yeah you need work." Gazimon grabbed Kari's head, and began to face fuck her. "Now use your tongue." Kari coughed, trying to avoid the taste of Gazimon's dick. But the sooner it was over, the sooner she could breath. Kari ran her tongue up the underside of Gazimon's shaft as Gazimon pumped into her mouth. "yeah, that's the way!" Gazimon groaned.

"Oh she's a natural, I can tell." Epsilon-Palmon smirked, seeing Kari with her eyes clenched shut.

Kari's nose hurt now as Gazimon slammed into her, completely burying the cock between her thin lips. Kari let out a little sneeze as a few stray furs went in her nose. Gazimon however was in seventh heaven, panting heavily. A couple drops of clear liquid dripped into her mouth, making Kari wince with the taste. "Oh yeah!" Gazimon moaned as Kari sucked him. "Get ready, cause here I cum!"

Kari could feel Gazimon's body stiffen, not looking forward to Gazimon ejaculating into her mouth. She tried to pull Gazimon's penis out of her mouth, but Gazimon held her head in place. "Mmmm!" Kari felt the warm liquid spurt into her mouth. Kari tried to spit the jizz out, but Gazimon held her tight, not letting Kari slip out.

Epsilon-Palmon smiled as cum dribbled out of the sides of Kari's mouth. Obviously the young girl did not want to swallow. (Can't have that...) Epsilon-Palmon slid of the side of the bed next to Kari. "Now be a good whore and swallow." Epsilon-Palmon reached over and grabbed Kari's nose.

"Grmph!" Epsilon-Palmon pinched Kari's nose shut. Kari desperately tried to pull off Gazimon's cock, but Gazimon smirked, holding Kari tighter than before. Kari suddenly couldn't breath, her nose shut and her mouth full of cum. Kari desperately swallowed instinctively, forcing the rancid will down her mouth.

"Oh Kari just loves the taste of cum." Epsilon-Palmon let go of Kari's nose.

"Grah!" Kari finally pushed Gazimon away, Gazimon satisfied. "Patooie!" Kari spit on the floor, trying to dislodge some of the horrible taste.

"Oh man, what a good job." Gazimon licked his lips as he looked down at Kari. "I hope I get you cunt next."

"Now now Gazimon, we have to wait till her turn comes." Epsilon-Palmon bent down, and ran her tongue slowly up Kari's face. "Maybe Kari will want to play with me instead." Epsilon-Palmon tasted Gazimon's cum that dribbled down the sides of her chins.

Kari shuddered as Epsilon-Palmon licked her face. But she did not cry. She was stronger than that. Having Gatomon run off like that, Myotismon coming back, Emperor Izzy attacking them.... but she regained herself. She would not give Epsilon-Palmon any sign of weakness. "Truth or Dare."

Epsilon-Palmon smirked as she jumped back on the bed. "Truth. I am finding your truth questions amusing." Epsilon-Palmon looked back at Gazimon. "You can go now."

"but..." Gazimon started when Epsilon-Palmon held out her hand. "Gone!" Gazimon ran out the door as Epsilon-Palmon's vines sailed after her.

"The slaves don't know their place sometimes." Epsilon-Palmon closed the door with her vines and retracted them. "Anyway ask away."

"What happened to you to turn you into this creature?" Kari asked with hate, still tasting Gazimon on her lips.

Epsilon-Palmon scowled, which made Kari feel good. "My digidestined abandoned me. Never showed up like she was supposed to. Imagine spending a few decades fighting on File Island. Or even longer wandering Server. Or how about spending several years locked up in the dungeon of the Dark Masters where the best you could hope for is a guard making you give him a blowjob, just so you can have some actually interaction!!" Epsilon-Palmon snapped.

Kari remained calm, though she did feel sorry for her, it did not excuse what she had done. "You didn't answer my question. Why are you here now, raping a girl who would have been your friend from your time?"

Epsilon-Palmon snarled, the gesture on her face looking so off to Kari. "Emperor Izzy rescued me from the cell and offered me a position. A position of Epsilon on his Council. It was a turning point in my life. And I will never look back."

Kari looked over Epsilon-Palmon. "I don't suppose I can give you the turn your life around speech."

"You could." Epsilon-Palmon shook her head. "But it would only make me mad. Now my turn. Truth or Dare?"

"Does it matter which one I took?" Kari asked, to which Epsilon-Palmon shook her head again. "Fine. Dare."

"You are brave." Epsilon-Palmon smiled. "Masturbate yourself till you cum."

Kari gave Epsilon-Palmon another nasty look, but didn't bother to protest. Epsilon-Palmon could call in those Gazimon to gang rape her if she wanted to, so it was best to play her demented game for now. Kari's hands went to her belt buckle, and undid the clasp. Kari slowly slid down her white shorts and panties, just enough so she could place her hand in between her legs. Kari closed her eyes again, pretending Epsilon-Palmon wasn't there. That she was in her room, alone. Kari had done this before, what girl hadn't? But Kari had some difficulty relieving herself at home. If her parent's weren't there, then Tai, Agumon, or Gatomon would be around. Sometimes she locked herself in the bathroom, turning on the bath water, and spread her legs out under the facet. The warm water would splash down her young cunt, sending waves of pleasure through her body as Kari tried to keep quiet, the pleasure building to a near unbearable amount. She would think about the time she was with TK in that cave all those years ago, or even that one time with Gabumon. Even Gatomon... Kari's fantasies were wild for such a girl. She dreamed Gatomon licking her cunt, or even Biyomon tickling her with her wings, or Palmon with her vines. Kari always wondered what those vines would feel like, snaking there way up her cunt, touching her in just the right places.... then there were the boys. Kari sometimes brought pictures of the TK and Davis in with her. She loved to touch herself thinking of them. Or even both at the same time. But Kari did not stop there. Fantasy was the biggest turn on, for you could do anything. Suckle Yolei's breast. Having Matt take you from behind. Even digimon... Kari wondered what it would be like to have a night with Agumon, or Veemon, or Patamon.... "Ohhhhh...." Kari moaned as she frantically fingered herself, half oblivious to her surroundings.

Epsilon-Palmon watched Kari really get into it now. Kari had actually moved one hand from her cunt, and placed it under her pink and white tank top, rubbing her breasts. (Man she is so cute...) Epsilon-Palmon lay back, spreading her legs wide, unable to sit idly buy as it felt her pussy lips were on fire. "Mmm yeah!" Epsilon-Palmon lightly brushed her own pussy lips. Epsilon-Palmon didn't use her fingers for too long, extending her vines. Epsilon-Palmon felt the vines slowly push their way up her cunt, going further than any normal cock could ever. "Mmm Kari..." Epsilon-Palmon moaned as she began to rhythmically pump the two vines in her cunt in and out, while at the same time rubbing her clit with a third vine.

Kari was panting hard now, her eyes still closed. She had settled on a Davis fantasy, imagining Davis was behind her, reaching his strong hands around her, touching her just where he was supposed to, nibbling on her ear in that little place she likes. Kari soon brought herself over the edge. "Mmmmmm...." Kari moaned softly as she came, enjoying the release of hormones, her finger slowing down as the orgasm ebbed.

"Oh yes!" Epsilon-Palmon let her vines go deep inside her. Epsilon-Palmon had no reason to be quiet as she vine masturbated her self to a powerful orgasm. "Uhhhh!" Epsilon-Palmon groaned as she arched her back, enjoying the free masturbation. "Oh yes, sometimes a girl has to do herself to have it done right, eh Kari?" Epsilon-Palmon panted as she took the vines out of her cunt.

"I am not surprised that no one can stand to be near you." Kari lashed out wiping her hands on the cot's blanket.

"Oh I get more than enough actions." A single vine slowly went over to Kari. Kari moved her head to side, but the vine dragged across her lips. Kari sputtered, but couldn’t help but taste Epsilon-Palmon's love juice, which tasted strongly of mint.

Epsilon-Palmon wheeled in her vine. "You put on such a good show." Epsilon-Palmon crawled over, licking her lips.

"Truth or Dare." Kari asked as she repositioned her pants, not wanting to give Epsilon-Palmon the chance to play with her.

"Dare." Epsilon-Palmon answered as she rubbed Kari's knee with her hand. "How about I lick you clean?"

"When was the last time you felt guilty about the things you do?" Kari asked a truth question instead.

"That's not a dare!" Epsilon-Palmon snapped.

"And making me masturbate wasn't a truth!" Kari waved her hand. "So let's forgo the rules! Unless you are a coward!"

"Fine." Epsilon-Palmon snarled. "Honestly? The last time I felt guilty is when I abandoned my friend on File Island in that time line. I wanted to be on my own, and I felt guilty for leaving them. But that was the LAST time!" Epsilon-Palmon stood up. "The first time I killed a digimon, I didn't feel guilty. First time I killed a human, I didn't feel guilty. When I killed Mimi from my world, squeezing the life from her with my own vines, I didn't feel guilty. She was a flea to me. An aphid. A bug. Just like you are."

"No I am not." Kari looked at Epsilon-Palmon. "You need me. You need my power. And the fact of the matter is, Emperor Izzy doesn't need you. And when he tires of you, he's going to pull you like the weed you are."

Epsilon-Palmon actually growled. "All right, no more rules! I choose dare for you. And I call hardcore tentacle action!" Epsilon-Palmon he’d out her hands. "Poison IVY!"

Kari moved back on the bunk, but she had no escape. Kari shivered as the vines grabbed around her body, squeezing. "Let go!"

"I think not!" Epsilon-Palmon snapped as the vines squeezed around their prey. "Emperor Izzy wants you alive and unhurt. But I can still enjoy myself! " Kari opened her mouth to say something, but two vines jumped into her mouth. Kari could still taste Epsilon-Palmon's minty cum on the vine tips. Kari tried to bite down, but Epsilon-Palmon had one vine wrapped around her neck, and squeezed tightly the second she felt Kari began to bite down. "Now just try and enjoy it!" Epsilon-Palmon sneered as her vines went under Kari shorts, two over her belt loop, and one through her pant leg.

"Mmm!" Kari struggled, but every time she thrashed to much, Epsilon-Palmon would just give another squeeze to the lone vine on her neck, and Kari would start to black out.

"Oh I am going to ram these vines so far up you ass they are going to come out your mouth!" Epsilon-Palmon laughed as she felt Kari's asshole with her vine, and began to apply pressure. The other two vines found her wet cunt, and began to snake their way up her vagina.

"EPSILON!"

Epsilon-Palmon looked to the door. Ken stood there, dressed in his purple and yellow digimon emperor uniform. "Ken, I am a bit busy..."

"let her go now!" Ken snapped as he stood at the door, Stingmon behind him.

"You have got to be kidding me." Epsilon-Palmon smirked, but her vines had stopped, still wrapped around Kari.

"Do you want me to go tell Emperor Izzy what you are doing? How Kari looks like she is half straggled? Would he like it that you may accidentally hurt or kill his power source?!" Ken growled.

Epsilon-Palmon looked back at Ken, staring through those black glasses. "Fine." Epsilon-Palmon retracted her vines. Kari gasping as the two vines in her mouth slid out. Epsilon-Palmon looked back at Kari. "You are so lucky we need you. But maybe after we are done, we can continue." Epsilon-Palmon slid off the bunk and waked to the door. She looked up at Ken. "Better choose your allies carefully." Epsilon-Palmon then looked at Stingmon. "And you can meet me in my quarters later tonight." Epsilon-Palmon laughed as she walked away down the halls.

"Sick." Stingmon growled as he stood guard at the door.

"Kari are you ok?" Ken ran over to Kari on the cot.

"Pah!" Kari spit to the side. "Yes... you came here before she could really do anything." Kari got up, looking at Ken more closely in his old Digimon Emperor uniform. "Ken, what are you wearing?"

"No time." Ken helped Kari up. "Let's get you out of here."

"Is the uniform some sort of plan?" Kari was confused as Ken all but dragged her out o the cell.

"It is too make Emperor Izzy think I was working with him." Ken replied as they went down the hall, Stingmon behind them.

"So you don't really work for Emperor Izzy, do you?" Kari followed Ken to a door far down the end of the hall.

"No. And I have a plan." Emperor Izzy took a key card, swiped from Delta-Cody. The child hopefully would not notice it gone for a while. Emperor Izzy did not trust him with complete reign of the lab, for good reason. The door slid open with a hiss.

"What plan?' Kari looked around the lab, filled with machines, computers, and strange devices.

Ken went over to the side, grabbing a small orb about the size of a billiard ball, which was black and had small silver lines running through the surface. "Here hold this." Ken did not dare remove this from the lab before, in case someone came by and checked on it.

"Ken, tell me!" Kari grabbed the orb as Ken handed it to her. "What is going..." Kari suddenly felt very tired. The orb began to pulse with white light, and hum so softly. "UHhh...." Kari stumbled backwards.

Stingmon reached out, catching Kari easily as Ken caught the orb from Kari's hands. "I am sorry Kari." Ken sighed as he walked over to the lab counter, and gabbed a laptop size device, which had a small orb slot in the centre. "All my panning.... stealing Emperor Izzy's back up time travel data, breaking into his lab, stealing Kari's power. To give me this. Time travel. To give me one chance to do what I thought was impossible. Save Sam." Ken fingered the orb as if it was magic.

"Ken." Stingmon looked down at young Kari in his arms. "Are you sure you want to do this?" Stingmon laid Kari gently on the ground.

"I have no choice." Ken ran a hand over the hard casing of the device, which Emperor Izzy invented for time travel. "But I can't live without Sam. I promised I would do anything to get him back."

"A very noble deed." Stingmon and Ken whirled around as a white robbed figure spoke from the corner of the lab. Stingmon and Ken had not noticed him before. "But at what cost?"

"Back off!" Ken was instantly on the defence, all though he had no idea who this robed man was. His face was completely hidden in the hood. "Stingmon!"

Stingmon moved in front of Ken, guarding him. "Do not force me to hurt you, whoever you are." Stingmon held out his hand, in which a purple blade extended, glowing with energy.

"You may call me Prophet, honourable Stingmon." Prophet looked up to Stingmon, a few scars becoming visible on his chin. "I admire you. You will defend Ken, even you know what he is doing is wrong. Truer bonds of friendship do not exist."

"Stingmon?" Ken looked over at the tall green insectiod. "You know him?"

"He does not, yet he will." Prophet replied. "But even now he is torn. He does not want to let you do this. But he will not permit anyone to stop. Am I right Stingmon?"

"..." Stingmon looked back at Ken. "He is right Ken. I believe this is wrong."

"Then why didn't you say so?" Ken asked removing his glasses.

"Because I know how important Sam is to you." Stingmon turned back to Prophet. "Which is why I will not allow you to interfere."

"I will not fight you Stingmon." Prophet held out a hand, which was hideously scarred. "But I wish to speak. If you two are about to extinguish this timeline to reform one of your own, I should be at least allowed to state my case."

"I don't have..." Ken started to say.

"I know, Sam." Prophet interrupted. "A truly remarkable individual. I admired him.
"You... you knew my brother?" Ken stuttered in surprise.

"Not as well as I like." Prophet bowed his head slightly. "But he was my role model in a way. He showed my how.... shameful my previous life was." Prophet looked up at Ken, Ken seeing a scared chin on Prophet's human face, but not much else. "You see, back in Emperor Izzy's time line, you decided that anything was worth saving Ken. Even if it meant sacrificing every single one of your friends." Prophet's gaze shifted over to the time travel device. "Much as you are doing now."

"Sam does not deserve to die!" Ken shouted, his voice quivering.

"No. He doesn't." Prophet shifted his look back to Ken. "You couldn't do it then, and you can't do it now. But Sam couldn't allow you to sacrifice the time line back then. He stopped Ladydevimon, and made sure to set things right." Prophet moved closer. "He saved the timeline, even though he knew it meant his own death. He is the greatest hero ever. Of course he doesn't deserve to die." Prophet spoke powerfully. "But he did. To prevent you from making a mistake you'd live to regret."

"I can't..." Ken began to shake.

"The timeline Emperor Izzy made is horrible." Prophet started speaking again. "All the digidestined from all over the world, dead. A damned world." Prophet saw his blow striking deep, Stingmon standing by silent. "Do you dare risk ruining what Sam sacrifice himself for? Could Sam stand you for committing crimes worse than the Digimon Emperor Ken did a thousand times over?!"

"Stop it!" Ken screamed as he stumbled back.

"Don't throw away Sam's good deed!" Prophet raised his voice. "Honour him for what he was! A true hero!"

Ken's lip quivered, the orb slipping from his hand on to the table. And he burst into tears. "God Sam!" Ken fell forward on to Prophet's shoulder, pouring out his emotion. "I can't do it!"

Prophet hugged Ken as the young boy cried. "Sam loves you, I know. And you know it to." Prophet pushed Ken back gently, holding his shoulders. "He fulfilled his destiny. But you still have yours."

Stingmon moved behind Ken, picking up Kari off the table. "Ken, Prophet.... I hate to interrupt, but we must make haste. Emperor Izzy may have safe guards on his lab, our plan hinged on speed. But now."

"Now you die." Myotismon growled from the lab door.

"Myotismon." Prophet ran his hand across the table, picking up the time travel device and the orb. "Have you had a chance to think over what we discussed?" Prophet looked over the device.

"You coward. You preach to me of honour and redemption , then run when I refuse." Myotismon moved close, Stingmon tensing, still holding Kari. "Now give me the device." Myotismon did not want to damage the time travel device. "Or I shall rip it from your bloody corpse."

"Oh of course." Prophet looked up, and Myotismon saw a smile on his lips. "Catch."

Myotismon held out his hands as Emperor Izzy threw the orb at him. Myotismon caught it in his hands instinctively, just as the orb began to flash. "What..." The orb exploded with pure energy from Kari. Myotismon scream as he was flung across the lab, burning and writhing in agony.

Prophet turned back to Ken and Stingmon. 'I believe it is time for us to go."

"Good idea!" Stingmon flew to the door carrying Kari, Ken right behind them.

Prophet ran out of the lab, shutting the door. "A shame. I had hoped that more of them would see the error in his ways." Prophet set a latch to the door. "But at least you are all right. Now hurry, down the hall and escape. It won't be long before Emperor Izzy's forces come."

"But what about you?" Ken looked at the white robed Prophet.

"I will be safe. But hurry." Prophet placed a hand on Ken’s shoulder. "And good luck."

Ken nodded once, his eyes still wet. "Stingmon let's go!"

"Right Ken!" Stingmon felt a sense of relief for not having to help Ken rewrite history. But they were still in danger.

Prophet watched Ken, Kari and Stingmon fly down the halls. "Good luck." Prophet reached under his robe, pulling out a time travel device, identical to the one he stile from Emperor Izzy's lab right now. "The circle is almost complete." Prophet replied as he activated the device. A bright light shone in the hallway, and Prophet disappeared into nothingness.
