Legacy Of The Transformed

Chapter 1: Transformation

It was another nice day in the Arbuckle house for Garfield and his friends. Garfield Cat along with his friends, Nermal Cat, Odie Dog, Arlene Cat, Floyd Mouse, and Max Bunny (my OC) were sitting outside enjoying the summer breeze and the scenery. Their owner, Jon Arbuckle, had gone into town to buy groceries because Jon was throwing a dinner party for his friends and family tonight.

"I wonder if there's any excitement worth having out there somewhere?" Garfield asked.

"Who knows? As long as it doesn't involve having to face against a horde of mean alley cats, I'm in," Floyd said in high-pitched squeaky voice.

Suddenly, the 6 animals heard a booming voice say, "Garfield and friends! I have been looking for you for a long time! You 6 are the perfect subjects for me!"

"Who said that? Who are you?" Arlene asked in anger.

"You better not be another extraterrestrial! Garfield and I have already had an encounter with a different one already!" Odie growled while holding his rubber bone threateningly in front of him.

Laughing, the mysterious figure held out his hand and said, "Say goodbye to your world and say hello to the Digital World!" Then, 6 beams of different colored beams of light shot out from his hand and struck each of the housepets as a bright flash of light was seen.

After 2 hours, Garfield woke up moaning and held his head in pain. He looked around and saw that he was no longer in Muncie but now in a large dungeon. At first, he thought that he was the only one who was put in the dungeon then he remembered that the others were also with him. He looked down at his hand to see that it wasn't a furry paw, it was actually claws like a dragon! Garfield found a piece of steel that acted like a mirror and looked at his reflection to see that he had a face like a dragon. He screamed in horror when he witnessed this and inspected his new appearance. Garfield had been turned into a strange creature that looked like a cross between a cat and a dragon, having Garfield's pudgy body and fur but had a reddish-orange tint in his fur, still had his cat tail, red scales on his knees, chest, arms, and stomach, a pair of orange and purple dragon wings on his back, a long neck, a head like a dragon's, crimson eyes, and wore a black belt that had a strange symbol on it. He looked and marveled at the other creatures that his friends had turned into.

Nermal got turned into another bizarre creature that looked like a cross between a cat and a wolf, having Nermal's body, a long fluffy tail like a wolf's, had blade-like claws on his hands, a head like a wolf's, had shoulder pads with another strange symbol on it, navy blue eyes, and his voice was 3 times more deeper when he spoke. Floyd was turned into a cross between a mouse and bear that was Floyd's size, had hints of white fur in his gray fur, had white paws that functioned like padded gloves, a head like a polar bear's, had kneepads with another strange symbol on it, and had white eyes. Arlene turned into a cross between a cat and a bird having Arlene's tail, had a pair of wings on her back that had lavender, green, indigo, blue, and khaki feathers, a head like a bird's, had a chestplate with another strange symbol on it, and had purple eyes. Odie was turned into a cross between a dog and a beetle having Odie's long neck, arms, and tail, had a pair of feet that were colored yellow-orange with blue talons, a pair of gray chest scales that aligned his chest as well as a gray stomach, a navy blue beetle shell on his back with turquoise and silver stripes adorned on the sides, his ears were now a pair of feathery insect antennae that were like that of a lunar moth's, his bone was no longer rubber but was colored gold and he carried it around like a special tool, had a pair of cowboy cuffs with another strange symbol on them, and had gold insect eyes. Finally, Max was turned into a cross between a rabbit and a lion having Max's top hat that he always wore around his waist, a silver mane around his head, and a pair of elbow pads with another strange symbol on them, and had gray eyes.

"This is most confusing. There must be a way to get out of here," Garfield said angrily to himself.

"What's happening?" Odie asked when he woke up.

"I don't know but at least we survived," Nermal said.

"Can anyone please tell me why I'm feeling hot all of the sudden?" Max asked.

Garfield knew that his friends would get the same reaction he did when he discovered his transformation. So, he told them that the mysterious figure that attacked them transported them to another world and turned each of them into bizarre creatures. Suddenly, the mysterious figure stepped in and announced the new names of the creatures that Garfield and his friends got turned into.

"So that explains why I couldn't remember my own name," Garfield, now known as Bruluremon, said.

"Because that creep had used his powers to turn us into creatures called Digimon," Nermal, now known as Lichtmon, said.

"I knew that this couldn't get any worse than this!" Odie, now known as Vonkmon, growled in anger.

Before the mysterious figure could kill the 6 Digimon, they heard a voice yell out, "Down Tornado!" A flurry of feathers flew out of nowhere and pelted the mysterious figure.

Then, a swan-looking Digimon ran in and used her feathers to break the prison door. The 6 Rookies ran as fast as they could with the swan Digimon accompanying them. The mysterious figure was very angry when he witnessed this.

"You stupid Digimon have not seen the last of me! I'll get you the next time!" He yelled in anger.

Soon, the 6 Digimon housepets kept on following the swan Digimon, who introduced herself as Swanmon, until they made it to a large colorful place with a huge tree and lots of bushes. The 6 Digimon were very awed when they witnessed this.

"What is this place?" Floyd, now known as Hielomon, asked.

"This is known as the Village of Beginnings, it's a place where many Digimon are born," Swanmon answered.

"I never knew that, that is so amazing," Arlene, now known as Uraganomon, said.

"What are we here for, anyway?" Max, now known as Sombramon, asked.

"I will explain it all to you," Swanmon said.

The 6 Digimon knew that with Swanmon's help, they would find a way to turn back to their old selves again. Unfortunately, this was easier said than done because they couldn't turn back to normal unless the mysterious figure was destroyed. So, Swanmon explained that the mysterious figure who captured them was a Mega-level Digimon by the name of Hexmon. She also explained that the only way for Bruluremon, Lichtmon, Vonkmon, Uraganomon, Hielomon, and Sombramon to turn back to normal was to become the Digimon partners of 6 children named Takuya, Koji, JP, Zoë, Tommy, and Koichi so that they could get stronger to fight Hexmon. Lastly, she told them that each of them had special abilities about themselves: Bruluremon had the ability to see in the dark and to fly in the air as well as to breath fire, Lichtmon had the ability to use light to find his enemy's weakness and to generate light energy into a massive energy beam, Hielomon had the ability to toboggan across ice as well as to breath ice, Uraganomon had the ability to fly in the air and use her powerful wings to create massive tornadoes, Vonkmon had the ability to course electricity along his body and to also fly in the air like most beetles do, and finally, Sombramon had the ability to create a dark aura along his body and to predict the weather.

"I can generate electricity on my body? Cool!" Vonkmon squealed cheerfully.

"Wow, I never realized that I can create tornadoes," Uraganomon said while smiling.

"You 6 must realize how important this is. You have to think clearly once you face against Hexmon," Swanmon said.

"We can only hope," Bruluremon said to himself.
