I know how to make a drum style or pattern now but how do I create a drum fills and use it in the Korg Krome or is it possible to change between
the drum fills and regular drum pattern after I create the drum fills. I can created the drum fills the same way I created the regular drum pattern but how do I switch between them?

Yeah, but...
Here are three possible ways to get a drum fill.
The first is the one you've proposed, which is to have the drum fill separate from the regular pattern. You can switch between patterns, but they need to be consecutive; right next to each other, and the switch can only take place if you are in edit mode; i.e., on that page where the drum track pattern is displayed and can be changed.
As you're playing highlight the drum pattern number and you can inc/dec the pattern number with a button push (+/- 1) or using the assignable pedal switch (but only in one direction).
-or-
You could write a longer pattern that has the change to the fill "pre-loaded" in the 7-8 bar where it would naturally occur. Also, there's nothing stopping you from writing a 32 bar pattern that has more subtle fills leading up to a big "look at the drummer" fill on 31-32. Remember that you can start your longer pattern with that fill on 1-2, which will make it sound like an intro when it starts. In looping back it will sound the same, and your ear can't tell what bar your pattern is actually on.
-or-
In combi mode, program individual hits from the same kit at the extreme end of your keyboard such that the crash cymbal is on the white keys and toms on the black - you'll be able to play a descending tom fill over the playing pattern easily (black keys), or a crash fill over the pattern (white keys), or just the big "trash can" ending regardless of measure number or actual count or even if the pattern is playing. This saves you from having to use the assignable switch, gives you timing flexibility, and the scheme can be used with any combination making it mnemonic (easy to remember and plays the same way regardless of combi if they're yours or have been edited to follow this scheme.)

Create my own arpegio
Thanks Bill for the drum fills help !!!!! I have another question to ask you
how do you create your own arpeggio -- can I just recorded it also the way I create the drum pattern?
