Chapter 1: New In Town

"Hey Mom, I'm heading to school" I notified "Are you sure you don't want me to drive you?" she asked "Nah, I'd rather walk" I answered "Okay, have a good day at school honey" she responded "I will" I said walking out the door; I was walking to my new school from my house when I bumped into someone "Oh sorry" I apologized "It's alright. I'm TK" he responded "I'm Zack" I introduced "So you're heading in this direction too?" he questioned "Yea, I'm heading to my new school. I just moved from America" I answered "Oh really? What class are you in?" he asked "Class 5-A" I replied "Neat, I'm in that class too" he said; we arrived at school after about three minutes of walking.

"I'm Mr Hamasaki, I'll be your teacher, and I'd like you all to welcome two new students" the teacher introduced, we walked in on cue "It's nice to meet you, I'm TK" TK bowed "I'm Zack" I added bowing as well "TK please take a seat next to the girl with a camera around her neck. Zack please take a seat in the back near the window" Mr Hamasaki instructed, we took our seats and stayed there until class was over; TK walked off with some girl and another student followed them so I followed him because something bad could happen. "Hey Zack" TK greeted "How do ya know him?" the girl asked "I met TK this morning on the way here when I accidentally bumped into him" I answered "Oh. Well I'm Kari" the girl introduced "Zack" I responded "Oh hey Yolei" TK said suddenly and a girl with purple hair ran into the room "You're Kari Kamiya aren't you" Yolei said "Yea that's right, why do you ask?" Kari responded "Well are you related to Tai? He sent this Email" Yolei said holding up a piece of paper "My brother needs us!" Kari exclaimed before running off to the computer lab with us following, we ran into a guy named Izzy along the way.

"I was about to send Tai an answer when the battery ran out on my computer. I knew I should've recharged it after I played trigonometry trivia on the internet last night, but boy talk about fun" Izzy ranted typing on the computer "I got 'em!" he exclaimed "What's the Digital World? Is that a new amusement park? I bet they have some great rides" Yolei asked "I heard about it from Tai once, he said there are a lot of Digimon there, whatever they are" Davis chimed in "You know Tai?" TK questioned "They play on the same soccer team" Kari input. "Hey guys I've got an idea, why don't we all go to the Digital World" Yolei suggested "Yolei weren't you coming over, remember you were gonna fix my computer" Cody reminded "Oh sorry I forgot" Yolei apologized "If Tai's there, the gate to the Digital World's open" Izzy said; Yolei left the room with Cody so she could fix his computer.

"We're going back to the Digital World! Prodigious!" Izzy exclaimed "I'm going with you" Davis stated "That's impossible, not just anybody can go ya know, you need a Digivice" TK informed "Listen TC if you can go so can I!" Davis growled; suddenly a bright glow came from the computer and four rays of light shot out of it, one went to me, one went to Davis, and the other two went down the hall "What's this?" I asked holding up a orange device "A Digivice!" TK exclaimed "It's a different model then the ones we have" Kari stated. "We should go now while the gate to the Digital World is still open" Izzy insisted "I agree... so what do I do? Just hold it up to the computer" I concurred "Yes" TK replied, I did so and got sucked into the computer along with Davis, TK, and Kari but not Izzy; we appeared in a dense forest "So this is the Digital World huh" Davis sighed "Woah this place comes with a new wardrobe" Davis notified.

His clothes were the only ones that changed which bothered me cause the clothes my Mom set out for me were really uncomfortable so I decided to take them off "Ah! What are you doing?!" Kari questioned covering her eyes with her cheeks a bit red "I'm just changing, I've got a set of clothes under these ones" I answered, she sighed in relief and opened her eyes; I was wearing an orange sleeveless shirt with a blue one under it, blue wrist bands, a blue belt, blue shoes, and orange pants. After a bit of walking we finally ran into Tai, one of the Digimon that was with him flew over to TK "TK!" it exclaimed "Patamon!" TK said hugging the Digimon "Hi guys, I'm glad ya all made it" Tai greeted running over with two more Digimon "Kari!" the cat Digimon exclaimed hugging Kari "Gatomon!" Kari grinned hugging it back, Gatomon took us to a cave with an egg in the center and explained what happened.

"Looks like a deflated beach ball. No wonder, its got a spike through it" TK commented walking over to the egg "Yea plus it's heavier than my mom's meatloaf" Tai added, TK tried to lift it but it wouldn't budge, Kari tried as well and failed too, Davis tried and got it off the ground without a hitch causing a blue Digimon called Veemon to appear; suddenly the cave shook and everyone but Davis looked up to see a dinosaur like Digimon breaking into the cave. "It's a monster!" Davis exclaimed "No it's a Digimon!" Kari corrected "Monochromon!" TK added "Boom bubble!" Patamon shouted firing a sonic wave "Pepper breath!" Agumon shouted shooting a flame ball, both attacks hit him but did nothing "Volcanic strike!" Monochromon yelled charging up a fire in its throat, he missed the first time but barely missed the second time, Kari hurt her ankle in the process of dodging the second blast.

Monochromon jumped down from the cliff and charged at Kari, I felt this weird feeling inside me so I acted without thinking, I jumped in between Monochromon & Kari "Zack are you nuts!" TK exclaimed; I held my hands out in front of me and grabbed onto Monochromon's horn to try and stop it, it pushed me back but slowly came to a stop just a few feet away from Kari "Z-Zack, how did you...?" Kari questioned. "Gatomon could you please get Kari out of Monochromon's path, I don't know how much longer I can last like this" I requested "Uh... right" Gatomon nodded helping Kari out of danger "And could someone please destroy this god damn dark ring!" I added feeling like I was gonna die any moment now "Agumon you heard him!" Tai concurred "Pepper breath!" Agumon repeated shooting a fireball, it hit the dark ring and destroyed it "Thank god. And now..." I sighed in relief before collapsing.

I groggily woke up to see Kari, TK, and Tai staring down at me "Good you're awake" TK notified "Come on, we're going to have a little chat" Tai said pulling me up off the ground; I followed Tai, TK, and Kari to a playground where 3 other High school kids were waiting, including Izzy "Hey Tai" Izzy greeted "Who's this?" a ginger girl asked pointing to me "He's one of the new Digi-Destined" TK answered as I took a seat on one of the benches. "He also saved my life" Kari added taking a seat next to me "How so?" a boy who looked like TK asked "Alright it happened like this, we were running from Monochromon who was shooting fire at us, Kari hurt her ankle after barely dodging the second shot, Monochromon jumped down from the cliff we were on before and charged at Kari, Zack here jumped in between the two and stopped Monochromon just a few feet away from Kari, then he collapsed and woke up a few minutes ago" TK retold.

"Yea I owe Zack big time" Kari grinned "It's was nothing, really" I chuckled rubbing the back of my head, I then stood up from the bench "Well I should get home, my Mom's probably worried since I didn't come home" I said walking off "See ya at school" Kari & TK waved, I just waved back and headed home 'Man what I day, I when to another world, fought a Digimon, and best of all I met Kari' I thought with a grin.
