Narration (Narrated by Henry)

' It had passed 3 years since we defeated The D – Reaper: Takato has become well known in Shinjuku thanks to the many writers, who have chosen him to illustrate their books; Rika has been into Ikebana; Jeri has taken up Ballet classes; Kazu and Kenta moved to Brazil; Ryo is in High School ; Suzie is now a cheerleader; Ai and Mako are in Second Grade and I am playing basketball. But, this is only the beginning of a new adventure... ''.

Digital Dawn

Chapter 1: A Digi- battle in the forest.

-Luna's POV-

LUNA! - Shouted my cousin, Takato – WAKE UP, WE ARE GOING TO BE LATE!-

That day was my first day in my new school and as usual, I moved to Takato's house because, my previous foster parents, couldn't take care of me. My real parents are travelers so, I change schools very often , but I didn't got used to it, but my little sister, Yumi got used to it, because she likes travelling, but I don't.

So, I woke up, dressed up and grabbed my backpack to eat my breakfast. Then, I went to my room and made sure that Tigresamon was ok.

When will you come back, Luna? - Tigresamon asked

This afternoon, Tigresamon – I answered – Don't worry, I will be back, I promise. For now use your Camouflage powers.-

So Takato, Yumi and I went walking to school and in our way Takato recognized a girl running from far away. She had straight, long red hair with orange highlights, tied up in a high ponytail; very pale complexion with unique slanted lavender eyes a round-shaped face; a thin nose ; a narrow jaw with a pointed chin and a thin and skinny figure. Also, she was tall for her age and she wore a school uniform, consisting in a white long-sleeved shirt, under a grey long-sleeved sweter, a dark blue shirt, white stockings and black Mary Jane shoes.

Hey, Google-head! - She shouted

Rika! - Takato said- What a surprise! -What are you doing here!-?

Yesterday, you forgot you're camera at home! - She said and gave it to him.

Then, she saw Yumi and me and she presented herself.

Hi, you must be Takato's cousins, right? - She said- I'm Rika Nonaka.

Yes, I'm Yumi Takuan and she's my sister, Luna- Yumi said.

I...I...- I only said.

I have to go, Takato, or I will be late for school- Rika said, softly glaring at me.

After we arrived to school, I got lost in school. I didn't know which my class was; the only thing I knew was that I was in 9th grade. I couldn't ask Takato because he already gone to his class and also Yumi.

Suddenly, I heard a voice, I turned around and I saw a girl with long smooth brown hair that reached her shoulders, which she had tied up in a half braid, that matched with light peach skin, her wide-rounded hazel eyes and a fringe that reached her eyebrows. Her face was round with high cheek bones and thin lips. She was dressed in a classic style; she wore a long-sleeved yellow shirt, a brown and green checkered skirt, white tights and brown ballerina-type shoes. As she smiled at me, as her round cheeks turned pink of happiness.

Need some help? - She asked.,

Sort of...- I answered – I don't know which my class...is-

You're new in school, right? Don't worry; this school is pretty big, that even I get lost sometimes. Anyway, my name is Jeri Katou and I'm in 9th Grade and what's your name?-

I'm Luna Takuan and I'm in 9th Grade, too – I said- Thanks anyway.-

You are from Class A, then, because there are not new kids in my class. I know a guy called Henry Wong, who is in that class. But I'm in Class B. I have to go, bye!-

See you later, Jeri. Thank you!-

I never thought I will meet someone like her; she was very kind with me.

I ran to class A, and opened the door.

Sorry for being late, professor Misaki. - I said quickly.

Don't worry, Miss Takuan. – The professor said- We haven't begun with the class yet. Please sit down next to Wong, please, he's the boy with blue hair.-

I followed professor Misaki's instructions and I saw all the kids, who were in my class, I was shocked and scared, because there were many and there were lots of guys watching me. Then I saw a group of mad girls and they were stared at me, so I just ignored them and kept walking, then I heard some footsteps and I felt a foot tripping me rudely. Suddenly someone grabbed me before I fell in the floor.

Are you ok? - A voice asked me. - Are you hurt?

Yes, I'm ok- I answered- Thanks.-

When I tried get up, I looked up and I saw a guy, who was extremely tall for whatever his age was. He had untidy dark blue hair, wide almond-shaped grey eyes with russet skin, combined with his full lips. He was dressed in a somewhat of a 'biker' style, wearing a dark green T-shirt yellow and orange stripes, a jet black jacket, tight brown pants and grey sneakers with yellow accents. When his beautiful grey eyes looked for mine, I couldn't move; I stayed still as I felt a burning in my cheeks. When I realized what I was doing, I quickly moved away from him and sat down in my chair, the one that was next to his.

Then, the class begun, it was pretty boring; those girls continued staring at me. I took out of my backpack my grandma's necklace, I had always taken it with me, and it was like my 'Lucky Charm'. I noticed that the necklace called the guy's attention. During the rest of the class, I couldn't stop looking at him; he was just so handsome, so hot. I shouldn't have done that, but in the end, he smiled at me. After that, I realized he was the guy who Jeri told me about, Wong.

Some hours later, after the bell rang, it was 1:30PM and I started to look for Jeri in the cafeteria, then she found me.

Luna! - She shouted, when she was with her friends – Do you want to have lunch with us?-

Sure! - I said and went with them.

I past a happy time with Jeri and her friends, for a very short time, Jeri's friends stared at me and left.

- Girls, let's go. We're wasting our time with this 'weirdo'.-

I was sad, I knew wait they meant with that, I never had a chance to make friends, because everyone, in each school I went, everyone called me 'weirdo'. However, Jeri didn't notice that.

I felt I was being watched by someone , I turned around and it was only Takato and the guy from my class, who was still watching me and when he discovered I was watching him, he blushed . Then Jeri started laughing.

What are you laughing at, Jeri? - I asked

It seems you already meet him, right? - She said

I think so. Why do you ask?-

I think, he likes you!-

Do you think so? - I asked, blushing

It seems that you like him, too! - Jeri answered

Hey, that's not true!-

Geez, don't worry. It's normal to like someone in your first day.-

Then, after school, Jeri gave me her mobile number and I gave her mine. When I went home, I went to my bedroom, put on my casual clothes and grabbed my Digimon cards and I saw that Tigresamon wasn't there, but I saw a note that said:

We will give you back Tigresamon, when we finish our mission. Go to the forest near your home, if you want her back.

Ravemon... – I thought.

-Henry's POV-

After school, I met Takato, Jeri and Rika at the park.

Takato, your cousin is very nice! - Jeri exclaimed

I'm glad she's like that with you. She has some problems to make friends. - Takato said.

Too bad she's not on our class! - Jeri said

That girl who was in my class is your cousin, Takato? - I asked

Yes, why do you ask? - Takato asked

I just wanted to know... - I answered

Now I see!-

What do you mean?-

You crush on my cousin, it's what I mean! – Takato started joking.

Takato! – I said when I turned red – Don't be so stupid I do not crush on her!

Yes, you do, Henry. You're blushing.-

I told you I don't crush on her! –

Ok, you two! – Rika said- Stop fighting!-

Suddenly, I felt an earthquake, near us. I turned around and a kind of weird portal opened in the middle of the sky. The portal opened and something fell to my hands, it was Terriermon. I was quite shocked; it had passed three years since Terriermon left the real world. Takato, Jeri and Rika were also surprised, because from the same portal came Guilmon and Renamon, but also a weird Digimon, that looked pretty scary. I was lucky that I brought my Digivice, so Rika and Takato did. Rika read the information in her Digivice.

Ravemon is a Cyborg Digimon of the Vaccine type in the Mega Level. – Rika read- His attack is the Raven Claw.

Great! - Takato said- We can't biomerge, that thing will crush us all!

Hold it! - Terriermon interrupted and attacked- Bunny Blast!

I tried to stop him, but Ravemon kicked him badly and Terriermon flew to the floor pretty hurt. Then , when Ravemon left I saw that he had with him a Digimon , looked like a Tiger.

Let her go, Ravemon! - Terriermon shouted, when Ravemon escaped- Come back here!

Slow down, Terriermon! - I said- What do you mean with 'her'?

We have to save Tigresamon, quick! She's in danger!

Hold your horses! - Takato interrupted- My cousin has a weird Digimon at home, does that have something to do?

It could have something to do! – Terriermon said

What do you mean, Terriermon? - Jeri asked

Ravemon came to the Real World to look for both the prophecy and Tigresamon's celestial powers. Ravemon is looking for a girl, the one who was hiding Tigresamon before – Renamon explained – He thinks Tigresamon has a gift, which will make Digimons invincible.

I got it, but...- Rika said- Who is this girl? Did you saw her, Renamon?

We don't remember how she looked exactly...- Renamon continued- ... But the only thing I remember is, that the girl has a necklace with her.

When Renamon said: 'that the girl has a necklace with her', I remembered, the new girl, who sat next to me in class, she had a necklace. I grabbed Terriermon and ran away as fast as I could.

Henry! - Jeri shouted- Where are you going!

What's wrong with Henry, Takato- mon? - I heard Guilmon ask Takato

He crushes on my cousin...- I heard Takato said

I TOLD YOU THAT I DON'T CRUSH ON HER! - I shouted from far away.

Takato can be a great friend, but he sometimes jokes way too much. I admit I was shocked when I first saw her for the first time, because she was kind of cute. But I didn't crush on her; I didn't know what her name was.

When I was near Takato's house, I saw her running and I followed her, she went to a forest. I never knew that near Takato's house there was a forest. Then, I hid behind a tree, where I saw her.

She had long, wavy dark brown hair to her elbows with dark red streaks and adorned with black hair clips, with messy bangs that reached her round, protuberant brown eyes with heavy black lashes, combined with her light peachy skin and her heart-shaped face with strong jaws and full lips.

In remembered that in school, she wore a long white camisole; with black rose's patterns to her knees; a black undershirt; a pair of denim skinny jeans and black converse sneakers. But there, in the forest she was dressing different; she wore a black short-sleeved T-Shirt with a 'Lock On' inscription and a pattern of a padlock; a rose pink undershirt; a choker necklace with a silver pendant; a jean miniskirt; black fishnet stockings and high black lace-up military boots with platform. She wasn't really tall for her age, she was really short; a petite, anyone could confuse her with an eleven or ten year-old, despise her deep, but high-pitched voice.

So then, she stopped near a river and took out a piece of paper, which looked like a letter. She read it silently and after that she looked at the sky, as her long wavy hair blew with the wind and took a deep breath when closing her eyes.

Don't worry, Tigresamon. - She said- I'm coming.

Suddenly, I could recognize the noise of tree cracking; there were trees that were falling on her. But she didn't move from where she was.

WATCH OUT! - I shouted- BEHIND YOU!

She didn't listen to me and when she realized what was happening, she screamed. I ran as fast as I could, jumped and pushed her away from the trees. We hit against a rock of the other side of the river. I realized she was unconscious after what happened so; I tried to wake her up.

Are you ok? - I asked her.

W-what happened? - She asked

You're safe now. There were some trees, it was a trap.-

Wait a minute...I know you! You're the Wong guy!-

Yeah... and you're the new girl, right?-

Yes, I am.-

I helped her to stand up because, she was pretty hurt: She had scratched her face and knees. Also, her forehead was bleeding.

Sorry to interrupt you, Love Birdies. But, we have to save Tigresamon, before, You-know-who kills her and downloads her data! - Terriermon said.

WE'RE NOT LOVE BIRDIES! - The girl and I shouted

Jeez, Moumentai! - Terriermon said- I was just joking!-

The girl showed us the way to Ravemon's lair. It seemed that she already knew the forest before. In the way, we stopped for a while in a cave, because she couldn't walk properly.

When we were in the cave, she looked sad, so I sat down next to her and tried to cheer her up.

Hey, don't worry we'll find her soon- I said- You just have to rest for a while, you can't walk well.-

I know can't walk well. - She answered- It's just that... We won't save her at time.-

What do you mean?-

I've been hiding Tigresamon since I was thirteen. I was the one who invented her and she came to life. Tigresamon's powers are extremely powerful, that no one can imagine...-

What kind of powers?-

When Tigresamon and I were at the Digital World, we were hiding from Ravemon, we found in our way a Parrotmon, who was badly hurt, and it was dying. Tigresamon sacrificed part of her powers to heal Parrotmon. The problem is: that many Digimon keep dying because of our fault. Ravemon wants her powers to turn Digimons into weapons, to destroy the bridge between the real world and the human world. But I can't help, because I'm not Tigresamon's Tamer.-

But that has nothing to do! Does it?-

What else can I do? I've lost all hope. I will lose Tigresamon... like my grandma...-

Then, she started crying, but with that question, I didn't know what to say. Since I met her, she has been bullied by the girls of our class; even Jeri's friends rejected her. I knew what Takato meant when he said she had problems making friends.

Moumentai! - Terriermon said.

But it didn't work at all, because she was still crying. I haven't lost hope, so held her out to see her face and I tried to comfort her.

There is still hope- I said- I promise, we'll find Tigresamon, if it's the last thing I do.-

Really?-

A promise is a promise, right? We are in this together.-

Thanks, Wong...- She said as she smiled. – You're very kind...

No problem! That's what friends do. Anyway, just call me Henry. What's your name?

I'm Luna Takuan...

Hey guys, let the presentations for later.-Terriermon interrupted- The 3 of us have work to do.-

We all went to rescue Tigresamon, we passed through all kind of traps, river and even by a swing rope over a creek. Jeri was right about Luna: she's a very nice girl. She seemed very shy and quiet, maybe because she had problems making friends. In school, most of the kids saw her as a 'weirdo'. Luna wasn't weird, she was just different, just all.

Suddenly, we heard a noise and two Digimon appeared fighting. Luna and Terriermon recognized the tiger-type Digimon and she recognized that Terriermon joined the battle. I put my arm in front of Luna, to prevent any danger and made Terriermon evolve to Rapidmon, because we couldn't, in the battle, Terriermon got badly hurt. I analyzed the evil Digimon.

SkullSatamon is a Ghost Digimon, in the Ultimate Level of the Virus Attribute. His attack is the Bone Blaster. - I read.

The Tiger- type Digimon protected Terriermon from SkullSatamon. Luna was shocked and I was scared.

If I could help Tigresamon...- Luna whispered. - I have to help her somehow...

Suddenly, a light formed in Luna's hand, transforming into a D- Power, it was Black and Lavender.

Luna...- I could only say-

This...- Luna whispered- This is... a D-Power... I'm Tigresamon's Tamer…-

Do you collect Digimon cards, Luna? - I asked her.

Yes, Why do you ask?-

You can help Tigresamon, with your cards and your D-Power.-

Luna looked her cards and then her D- Power. She saw SkullSatamon and then grabbed one of her cards, she Digimodified her card.

Digimodify! - I heard- Kazemon's Hurricane Wave, Activated!-

Wow! - I exclaimed- You used a Hybrid Digimon card!-

The attack with Tigresamon's powers worked, it let SkullSatamon out of battle for some minutes.

Yeah! - Terriermon exclaimed, being hurt- We won!-

Don't celebrate yet, Terriermon...- Luna said-

You should listen to her, Terriermon! - SkullSatamon said when he woke up as he kicked Tigresamon and hurt her badly.

Tigresamon! - Luna shouted, as she ran to where Tigresamon fell.

I tried to stop, but I couldn't stop her at time. Luna tried to check if she was ok. Meanwhile, Terriermon and I tried to distract SkullSatamon. The plan didn't work as I thought, we were defeated by SkullSatamon. He was going to kill both, Luna and Tigresamon.

Luna...- Tigresamon whispered- ... You must leave the forest at once!-

No, I won't. I'm your Tamer and I must be with you! - Luna exclaimed

LUNA! - I shouted- GET OUT OF THERE!-

When SkullSatamon almost kills her, Tigresamon interfered and tried to stop SkullSatamon.

The card that Luna had in her hand turned into a blue card and she used it as fast as she could.

Digimodify! - I heard- Matrix Evolution, activated!-

A light was surrounding Tigresamon and she Digivolved into an Angel- type Digimon! It looked pretty different than Tigresamon.

Fangwomon is an Angel Digimon in the Ultimate level of the Vaccine attribute. Her attack is the Holy Blast! - Luna read.

During the battle, Terriermon and I were quite shocked; Fangwomon's powers with Luna's cards destroyed SkullSatamon completely. But Fangwomon didn't download SkullSatamon's data. She transformed into a smaller Digimon, which also looked like a Tiger.

Tigramon is an Animal Digimon in the Rookie level of the Vaccine Attribute. Her attack is the Holy Fang. - I read.

After the battle, I took Luna home. Terriermon and Tigramon were quite tired, as Luna and I were tired. Finally, after a brutal battle, we arrived at Luna and Takato's house.

So, this is your home, right? - I asked her.

Moumentai! - Terriermon said- Luna is Takato's cousin.

You bet I am! - Luna said.

So...- I said, blushing nervously- ...See you tomorrow at school, then!

Ok, but, what does Moumentai mean?-

It means, take it easy, that everything will be ok! - I answered, before leaving.

Henry, wait! - Luna said and grabbed my arm, strained.-T…T… Thanks for saving my life before, I own you one!-

You're welcome! See you tomorrow! - I said, smiling at her and left.
