Chapter one: Cogymon

It's simple enough to say, tomorrow was the first day of the school again and I was starting 8th grade. Funny thing that yesterday it all started this suspension I've been having, before it happened. Yesterday I watched the episode Wizardmon had died in, oh how I cried. I loved that digimon so much.

"Alissa set the table!" came a voice.

I sat my dairy to the side and sighed, "Yes, Daddy!" I got up then looked to the side and smiled at him, sitting on my bed asleep. Cogymon. Like I said, it happened yesterday.

Flash back

It was rather late, and I was already in my pajamas. Till my computer suddenly came on. "Piece of junk, I thought I turned you off long ago!" I said and walked over to it to see what was wrong. When suddenly a mail popped up.

"Huh? But…I don't have Internet on this computer? Better read it anyways."

To Digidestined Alissa, holder of the crest of Spirit

I have informed you that Cogymon is ready to be your partner. If you are ready, please select the yes button if not select no. If you select yes the greatest adventure of your life will come, going through time and having your own digimon partner. Also remember that you are the creator of this digimon, and you are the creator of everyone else's! DO NOT give up on your talent of drawing, it's your only hope! Oh…and email me back anytime!

Sincerely, Gennai

"WHAT THE! GENNAI! He's the guy from digimon…but…but that's just a show! How? But then…wait…Cogymon? That digimon I created, he's Wizardmon's rookie form! What's going on…?"

"Hey sis, what's going on?" said a voice from behind me. I closed my eyes, groaned for a second and turned around, "What do you want Ashlyn?"

"Oh, I heard you yelling."

"Just forget it."

"Hey what's that?"

"What's what?" I asked trying to cover the screen with my hands.

"Looks like an email…I thought your computer doesn't have Internet."

"IT DOESN'T, NOW GO!"

"Sheesh…bossy!" Ashlyn said and turned around.
I sighed and looked back at the screen, I thought for a second and decided…yes. I clicked the button and all of a sudden the screen turned an odd red.

"Uh oh…"

"Uh oh is right, what did you do?"

"I thought I told you to go, Ashlyn!" I yelled behind the noise my computer was now making.

"Eh…I didn't listen like usual."

I rolled my eyes then looked back at my computer, it seemed that something was coming out. First a hand, a small three-fingered claw like hand with a light blue color. Then the rest of the arm, covered in a dark blue sleeve, then I saw it…his head. Bearing a wizard's hat over his face, a small skull in place where his forehead was, his sharp teeth pointing out of us muzzled like mouth, and then his eyes…big, cute, and a nice shade of brown.

"Hey sis, isn't that the digimon from your drawing?" my sister asked.

"Yes…" I started in astonishment, "It is…it's Cogymon!"

Cogymon finally made it out, and landed in my lap.

"So…you're Alissa right?"

"Yes."

He smiled and jumped into my arms.

"Then you're my partner! I've been waiting for so long to see you! I knew you before, you saved me…but I never got to really meet you! And my…my…"

"Your what?"

"Never mind…bringing back my brother upsets me."

"What? And hold on…how did I save you once?"

"I don't know…Gennai said it was you and my future self that had saved me."

"Ok…and who's your brother?"

Cogymon was quiet for a while, then finally spoke…looking up at me with eyes full of tears, "Wizardmon. He died for Gatomon and Kari."

"YOU MEAN HE'S THE ONE WHO'S FROM THE SHOW!"

"Show?"

I looked back down at Cogymon, "Oh…forget it…it's just a little shock. I just…always thought your brother was really cool."

"You knew him?"

"Uh…sorta I guess," I lied and looked at my sister anxiously.

She looked back at me, some what gawked and then shrugged.

"So hold on a minute, he's real?" Ashlyn asked.

"Yeah, I guess," I said.

"WOW! Cool…I wish I could have a digimon." Ashlyn whined.

I stuck my tongue at my sister, "Too bad, you don't and I do…ha."

My sister groaned, and walked out of my door stomping…plus slamming the door behind her.

"Who was that?" Cogymon asked.

"My little sister Ashlyn, I have another little sister, she's even younger then Ashlyn her name is Andrea. Beware of her." I joked around.

Cogymon smiled, "Ok I sure will."

End flash back

Since then he's been a great friend to me. Not even Andrea, my parents, or my other friends know about him. After dinner, I had another suspicious feeling. Cogymon stay hidden in my room, and I would occasionally bring him something to eat, or just talk and play. I learned to love him dearly, but later after a really cheerful day…did the sky turn dark.

"Hm…suddenly it looks like we're going to have a storm," I said. Cogymon walked over and looked out the window, then gasped, "That's no storm."

"What do you mean?"

"I can tell by these symptoms that it's an attack."

"Attack?"

"Yeah…"

"But, you're the only digimon here…right?"

"I hope so."

But it was an attack, later on when the sky began to rumble I felt an odd chill go down my spine.

"Cogymon…" I breathed.

He was already looking out the window, then turned his head to me with a worried face.

"There wouldn't happen to be a big, scary, or even ugly monster out there…would there?"

Cogymon looked at me again, this time his expression showed fear, "It's a champion."

"Explain…"

"His name is Devidramon."

"Is he that bad?"

"Bad enough for me!" Cogymon said and jumped behind me.

"But, you're the digimon! You have to fight him!"

Cogymon got to his senses, and stood in front of me. "You're right…I should fight him," he said, and with that he opened my window and jumped out.

"I DIDN'T MEAN LIKE THAT! COGYMON!" I yelled after him and then panicked. He'll need my help! I ran down the hallway, and out the door. Then nearly tripped off one of the stairs going down toward the door out of the apartment building. Once I made it behind the house, Cogymon was already dodging attacks.

"Cogymon!" I yelled for him. He looked at me, smiled then turned back to the Devidramon, "You don't scare me, Tricking Spark!" Yet, the attack did nothing but tick the monster off even more. He threw one of his attacks at Cogymon, knocking him to the floor.

"Cogymon! Get up, he's coming!"

But the Devidramon turned his attention from Cogymon to me. "I see you have a friend…friends mean weakness," he said and started coming toward me.

"Alissa!" Cogymon called out, trying to get up. I stepped back as Devidramon came closer, fear slowly taking over me…yet I couldn't move.

"Alissa! You need to move!"

But I couldn't, and by then Devidramon had raised his claw ready to strike, it was then that I flinched and screamed. Then he picked me up.

"Alissa!" Cogymon yelled then began to glow, "What the…?" Cogymon looked at his hands as his power grew. "Argh! Cogymon digivolve to…"

His three fingers stretched as they became five, and now wore gloves. His curved knees stretched and his bare skin was clothed. His stick grew more into a staff and the curved in end was replaced with a sun like shape. Last shown is the collar around his neck stretches up and the hat over his face is correctly placed on his head then his eyes open with a different color, a dark green and it had an angry look to it, this digimon is "…Wizardmon!"

I seemed to be frozen, he just digivolved to what his brother was. Was this really possible? Didn't matter to me, I knew he was going to save me.

"Put her down," Wizardmon said as he flew over to Devidramon.

The dragon smirked, "Heh, make me."

"Very well, Magical Game!" Wizardmon said and knocked the Devidramon off his feet. But he got right back up to fight, thankfully I was away from his grasp and got to safety. I watched as Wizardmon and Devidramon fought, it could have been a tie till something odd happened. The spirit within me let out a shout, "Wizardmon! You can do it!" And with that Wizardmon let out one last attack then deleted the Devidramon. Then he came over to me, "Wow, for a second there I thought it was going to be a tie."

"So did I, how did you defeat him?"

"You helped me."

"How's that?"

"That's the thing…I don't know…I felt a power I never felt before and then was able to destroy him. It was a different power then the power I normally feel when I'm ready to release a dark hole ball."

"Oh yeah, that ability/attack I gave you. I wasn't sure if its effect really worked."

"Oh it does, and it has helped me and my brother a lot."

"I'm glad to hear. Well…let's go inside."

"Good idea," Wizardmon said and devolved to Cogymon and jumped onto my shoulders.

Later that night, after Ashlyn had pestered me enough I decided to draw her a digimon. Doubting that she will come to life like Cogymon did. Yet it didn't matter to me. After I had drawn the baby form to the rookie form I got out another fresh piece of paper. Sure it was my bedtime, but I wasn't tired…and I was rather bored. As for my boredom I decided to start drawing a Wizardmon. The outline was done when I figured it was best I got my rest then maybe color it later when I'm bored again. So I set the paper to the side and lied down in my bed next to Cogymon, who was already snoring rather loud and drooling at least a water fall.

Later that morning

"Alissa…wake up! Look! I got one wake up!" said a very pestering voice from a certain sister of mine.

"What are you talking about?" I said rubbing my sleepy eyes and slowly my vision showed Ashlyn standing in front of me. But she was holding something. It was…

"I got a digi egg! See!" she said sticking the thing in my face. I backed up a little, looked down at the paper I drew Ashlyn's digimon then nearly passed out! It was empty! There was no sign of one pencil mark on it. Then I looked up at the egg Ashlyn was holding, it sure was a the size of a digimon egg…with occasional spots of the colors blue, red, and yellow. Those three colors…they're the colors on Triomon…the rookie form I made up for Ashlyn. Does that mean?

"It's really warm," my sister said snapping me out of this questioning trance. "Do you think it'll hatch soon?"

"Rub it nice and hard," I said and smiled with a grin. That my sister did and suddenly the egg began to crack.

"You were right! Look I see eyes…hi there little one!"

A small yellow fuzz like digimon emerged, with a blue horn and big, cute brown eyes. It smiled brightly and yelled its name "Pimon!"

"Is that its name?"

"Her name, yes."

"Awesome! I have a digimon!"

"Now Ashlyn, a digimon can be a lot of responsibility. Remember they eat, sleep, and use the bathroom too. Trust me I know," I said and gave a still sleeping Cogymon a quick glance. "Just…make sure you stay out of trouble. And don't show Andrea...you know she'll want one too."

"Ok I promise," my sister said still glancing at her digimon and it seemed she didn't hear a word I said.

"Ugh," I sighed and already got ready to grab out a sheet of paper for my other sister. Suddenly there was a loud stomach growl, both me and my sister looked at each other then down at the fresh digimon in my sister's hands. She looked back at us, innocent as ever. It sure didn't come from her. Then I turned around, Cogymon was now awake.

"Hey guys, who's that? I'm hungry. Can we eat? What's that baby's name? Is it the same thing you were working on last night? And…"

"COGYMON! ONE QUESTION AT A TIME!"

"Sorry," Cogymon said and finally hushed up.

"First of all, this is Pimon the digimon I made up for Ashlyn. And yes it's the same digimon that I was working on last night. Now…I'm going to go eat…what do you want?"

"Hm… I want to come with you!"

"You know you can't!"

"Just disguise me."

"Ok I'll try."

"Alissa don't you think you're getting a little too old to be dragging stuffed animals around," My mom complained.

"Erm…it's for school," I explained.

My mom looked at me from head to toe, "Then…where's the rest of your school stuff?…AND clothes?"

"Oh…uh…forgot that…be right back." I said and rushed back to my room, throwing Cogymon to the side and forgot all about him. Once I came back (clothes, backpack, and all) Cogymon was already sitting at the table ready to eat.

"Cogymon!" I said rather silently and sprinted over to him. "What are you doing?"

"Waiting for you to come and eat."

"You can't just get up on your own and sit there like that! You're supposed to pretend you're a stuffed animal!"

"Sorry, I'll try better next time."

"There wont be a next time," I said under my breath.

"What was that?"

"Nothing…"

"Hey Alissa, who are you talking to?" My mom asked from the kitchen.

"Um…" I stuttered as, luckily, Ashlyn came into the room holding her baby digimon. "…Ashlyn!"

"Oh…ok."

I then went over to Ashlyn, "What are you doing? You can't have her out here!"

"Don't worry mom wont notice."

Suddenly my mom did come in, she didn't say anything about Pimon or Cogymon. Was it that she didn't care or was she just that blind?

"Well I'm off to school!" I yelled and walked out the door…dragging my "stuffed animal" along. Once I was out the door I let Cogymon go so he could walk on his own.

"So…what do you learn in school? I never went to school…big brother was my teacher," Cogymon said walking close to me.

"Just a bunch of random and boring stuff, what about you…what did Wizardmon teach you?"

Cogymon put his head to the side, "I've told you once and I'll have to tell you again…I don't like bringing up my brother."

"I…I see…was he that great?"

"Absolutely. He and I never had a fight, we never acted the way you and your sisters act. He never hit me once or yelled at me…well only that one time I stole his hat and staff, both at the same time. But he didn't care and knew I was just having fun…then the day came…" Cogymon paused.

I looked down at him, and he was still looking at the floor.

"What happened?" I said having to break the sudden dead silence.

"Komarimon, he and his group of Gizamon just attacked us. We didn't have much of an advantage. There were like 20 of them and then suddenly the leader digivolved to Komarimon and used his ability on big brother."

"And, what was that ability?"

"Inner Bleeding."

"Inner Bleeding?"

"Yes, that. He hit my brother in the stomach. And since then…he's been bleeding there. I didn't know it yet. Not till I felt the pain in my hurt arm and I met Gennai. He showed me a screen that showed me every move of my big brothers. It was horrible to see him the way he was. I could tell he was slowly dying if he didn't fix the curse right away. But it was a really hard way to fix the curse. And even so he had already passed out about three times. And grown extremely ill, he would at least throw up three times per day blood. I felt sick to my stomach to see him that way, but I couldn't give up on him. He kept looking for me after our separation. Even if he knew he would die, he kept going till he would get to me."

"That…that's sad. How did you react, you know…when…when it happened?"

"Well at first I couldn't really breathe, I felt paralyzed. Then when he was gone I broke down crying. It took Gennai a while to make me stop and come back inside, even if it was raining out. I didn't care, I really didn't want to live. Till he mentioned you. I was curious and wanted to meet you. That's when he sent me to you. And here we are now!"

"Yep! Best buds!"

"Thank you for that. You, Gatomon, Burgermon, and big brother were and still are my best friends."

"Wait…Gatomon? You knew her before too?"

"Yes, we met each other when she was a Salamon. She had run away from Myotismon when he first found her. She was weak, but I helped her and she decided to travel with me. She became extremely interested in big brother when I told her about him. But sadly, we were only together for that day. Later on Myotismon found us and beat me senseless till Salamon let Myotismon take her for my safety. I'm glad she's still ok, hell…she's with Kari now!"

"Mhm, so…did you see it when Wizardmon and Gatomon met?"

"No, but I did see it when they had their first talk together. I could see they were going to be fast friends soon."

"Yeah, really great friends. Even if it caused death."

Cogymon half smiled.

"Oh! I'm sorry Cogymon, I didn't mean it like that," I apologized and had stopped walking.

"It's just that…he said—he said he'll always be there for me! He did, and now…he's gone," Cogymon said now crying rapidly.

"Oh…Cogymon," I said and bent down, "He's still there for you."

"Huh?"

I then poked him on the chest where his heart was located, "There…there he is. He's still there. Also…he's a part of you now. You digivolve to a Wizardmon also."
Cogymon smiled and then hugged me, "You're right!"

"I'm glad to help," I said hugging him back and letting my own tears fall.

Then suddenly a voice came, a familiar voice, "What is that?"

I stood up quickly, " Taija! What…what are you doing here?"

"What else? I'm going to school…aren't you? So aren't you going to tell me what you were just hugging?"

I sighed, "Ugh…you're not going to believe me if I tell you."

"Try me."

"Fine, he's…he's a digimon."

"A WHAT?"

"You heard me a digimon. You know 'digital monsters' …from the show! Like remember my favorite is Wizardmon. Well this little guy here is Cogymon. I made him up and now he's real! He came through my computer!"

"So you're trying to say that some drawing of yours just suddenly came to life and popped out of you computer?"

"Yeah pretty much…"

"Wicked! Hey, do you think that maybe…just maybe you can draw me one and it'll come to life."

"Well it just might work. Because I drew my sister one and she got her digimon this morning."

"Awesome! Do you mind if you do make me one?"

"I guess so," I sighed, knowing this wouldn't stay a secret.

"Ok thanks! So…little guy you're Cogymon…right?"

"Yep," Cogymon barely smiled.

"Looks like you were crying," Taija said wiping a tear from Cogymon's face.

"I…I was," Cogymon said gluing his eyes to the floor again.

"What for?"

"I miss my brother."

"Your brother?"

"Come here," I said.
Taija came over and I whispered it to into her ear.

"Oh!" She said clamping her hands over her mouth "I'm terribly sorry."

"It's not your fault, no need to apologize."

"Hey," Taija said putting her hand on Cogymon's shoulder. "I'm a good friend of Alissa's if you ever need someone to talk to, I'm here."

"Thank you, Taija," Cogymon said and looked up at her with a friendly smile.

"Well," I said…then suddenly start running. "CRAP! School's starting in 5 minutes!"

"Oh crap! You're right, come on Cogymon!" Taija said and started running.

"Hey wait up guys! I can't run good!"

To Be Continued: Well…what kind of digimon will Taija get? Will Cogymon ever get over his "brother loss" drama? You'll just have to wait and see!
