Thanks to crestoflight3 for beta reading this. I really appreciate that.

This is the story of Tailmon. If you don't like that, then simply don't read this. Well I guess I can't stop you from reading this, but I don't want to hear about it.

Disclaimer: I don't own digimon. This goes for all chapters after this one.

Chapter 1: Waiting and Searching

Gennai watched, with gritted teeth, from the cockpit of the Mechanorimon he piloted as the digiegg containing the digimon of Light fell to the forest below. He wanted to go catch it, but unfortunately he was still under heavy fire. If he chased after that one digiegg, he risked losing them all. As much as he didn't want to face Qinglongmon's wrath for losing that egg, he didn't want the digimon to be punishing him for losing them all. With this in mind, he continued flying, taking the seven remaining eggs to safety.

A week had passed and Gennai had finally returned to the forest he had seen the egg fall to. Climbing out of the Mechanorimon, he began to search. There was still hope that he'd be able to find the egg, and once he did, he could take it to File Island with the rest. He searched high and low, but he couldn't find it.

"Damn, did Piemon's men already find it?" the man wondered. He didn't even want to think of the possibility. What would they do to the poor egg if that was the case? Destroy it? Let it hatch so they could torture the poor digimon? Turn the digimon to the dark side? Gennai shuddered at this thought. The digimon who would hatch from that egg was meant to be the digimon of Light. They were supposed to bring light to the Digital World. It'd be horrible if it ended up being brought up to do the exact opposite.

Looking up to the sky, Gennai muttered, "I sure hope that does not happen." The man let out a sigh as he climbed back into the Mechanorimon and took off. He had a lot of explaining to do to Qinglongmon and he was not looking forward to it.

As he left, Gennai was unaware that he had simply just missed the egg. It lay in the branches of a tree, hidden from sight by the leaves. It remained in this tree for the months that passed. After all this time, the egg shook. Cracks began to appear on its surface. Finally the baby digimon popped out of the egg. It was a small white ball with two smaller balls as ears, and it was called YukimiBotamon. Sadly, the digimon began to look around. Where was she? Why was she alone? The digimon looked sad as she looked down to the ground.

"Hikari..." she muttered. She had a feeling that she couldn't explain. She was waiting for someone called Hikari. Who was this Hikari? Would this Hikari be able to help her? Not knowing, but wanting to find out, she waited. It wasn't long before she evolved to Nyaromon, a green digimon with cat ears and a cat tail. The months passed, but still she waited.

"Hikari..." she kept telling herself. She just knew that once Hikari appeared, everything would be better. The seasons passed by, but still she waited. She waited through rain, she waited through snow, she waited though the extreme heat of summer and the cold of winter, but still she waited.

"Hikari..." Nyaromon looked down as snow covered her. It had been so long, yet no one has come. She knew nothing but loneliness as she waited for this Hikari to come. Who or what was this Hikari anyway?

It wasn't long after then that Nyaromon evolved into her child form, Plotmon. By then she had decided that just sitting around waiting wasn't getting her anywhere. Maybe she needed to find this Hikari herself. Maybe this was a quest and in order for her to find happiness, she needed to find Hikari first. There was also the possibility that Hikari was in some sort of trouble and needed to be rescued.

Desperately wanting to find Hikari, Plotmon set out. She wanted answers and she wouldn't give up until she had found them. She walked for days through the forest, not finding this Hikari she was looking for. Still she refused to give up.

She continued her search and eventually she found something. However, this was definitely not Hikari. A flock of bats appeared before her. Frightened, the small child digimon backed up. Fear was in her eyes as the sky turned red and a figure appeared. It had the appearance of a vampire. Plotmon couldn't help but let out a cry. Who was this? What would he do to her? Would she ever find this Hikari she was looking for?

"Little digimon," the vampire began, "What are you doing in this forest all alone?"

"I'm searching for Hikari..." Plotmon responded with fear in her voice. She wanted nothing to do with this vampire. She just wanted to leave and never see him again so she could find Hikari.

"How ironic," the vampire laughed, "You were searching for light, but instead you found me, the great Vamdemon, King of the Darkness!" Plotmon was scared. She did not like this digimon one bit.

"Can I leave now?" she asked him, hoping this digimon didn't want her for anything and would let her leave. Vamdemon smiled at her.

"Oh, so you think out of the goodness of my heart, I will let you leave?" he asked her. Plotmon backed up, "My little dear, no one escapes from me." This was it. Plotmon ran for it. Maybe, just maybe she'd be able to get away from this digimon and continue searching for Hikari. Vamdemon let out a laugh. "Run, run, my little pretty. Maybe you might lose me," he mocked. Smiling, he commanded his bats to grab her. Plotmon put up the best fight she could against the bats.

"No, let go of me!" she cried as the bats carried her up to Vamdemon.

"Let you go?" Vamdemon smiled at her. "I won't let you go. You belong to me now." He let out a laugh as he carried the poor digimon away with him to his castle.
