It was summer, one of my favorite seasons of the year. There was no school, no homework, and tons of relaxing time. My name is Aaron Brookes, and I live here in Japan, after moving a few weeks ago from America. It's a really cool place. Oh yeah, I'm 14 years old, and I'm in the seventh grade of junior high school.

Now, at my house, or rather, apartment, I live with my mom, step-dad, and my half-twin sisters, Tory and Terri. I also have a cat, Copper, but he's lazy and doesn't do much. It's really a bummer. Anyway, this summer was really my favorite so far. I mean, I met some really cool people, and had crazy adventures, and it all happened in one summer.

I guess I should start at the beginning of summer. I was the new kid in town, and my mother, Julie, wanted me to make friends, so she signed me up for summer camp. It wasn't a bad idea, and I was good at talking to people, so I agreed. Once there, all the kids just decided to hang out by themselves. I stuck with this girl with a blue hat, a yellow tank top, blue jeans and red gloves and shoes. I think her name was Sarah or something. She had light brown hair and she was pretty.

There were so many weird types of people. Like there was a really tall guy, Joe, who had blue hair, and wore a sweater vest with a white short sleeved collared shirt with khaki shorts, high blue socks and red running boots. He also had huge glasses. He was okay, but he was a bit jumpy.

These two were probably the only two people I got along with the best with. Sarah or whats her name was a total tomboy, and was a year older than me. Joe was a bit of a complainer, but he was a really cool guy. He was about two years older than me.

So, it was all normal during camp, it being really hot, and sunny, when all of a sudden, I see a white flake fall from the sky. "Huh?" I was confused. It's the beginning of July, and it's snowing?

I was going to question someone, asking if this was normal, when a sudden blizzard blew in, and I ran to the closest building to me. It was a small wooden cabin, and seven other kids were in there. Joe and Sora, that's what her name was, were in there as well. A guy my age with brown hair and brown eyes slid open the door, "Since the canoe races are canceled, lets have tobaggen ones instead." He suggested, running out.

I raised an eyebrow, following him out, "Aren't you at least a bit concerned on how it started snowing in the middle of summer?" I asked, but apparently, he wasn't listening.

The littlest kid ran out smiling. "I'm gonna build the biggest snowman!"

Running after him was a guy who looked a lot like him. He had spiky blonde hair, blue eyes, and he wore a green turtleneck no sleeve shirt, a pair of blue jeans, brown gloves and brown shoes. "Hey TK, be careful!"

I'm guessing he was the little kid's brother. I didn't pay attention to anything else really, because my eyes were drawn to the sky. There were waves of different colors spread across, and it looked beautiful. "It's beautiful, magical even!" A girl's voice rang next to me. I looked over to the owner of the voice, and smiled.

Next to me, was a girl with a western looking outfit. She had a big pink hat on, and a western dress with the brown buckle. She had white and brown running shoes on, and brown gloves. She carried a big brown bag. Her hair was a light brown, and her eyes were brown. She looked like a girl I would hang out with in America.

"Yeah, but what is it?" A younger boy spoke. I looked over and saw the guy with spiky red hair, Izzy I think, looking up.

"Maybe an aurora?" Sora suggested. That's what it looked like to me.

"You mean Aurora Borealis? The northern lights? That's impossible! You see that in Alaska, we're way too far south." He informed all of us.

Sora rolled her eyes, "Tell that to the snow."

"I really think we ought to get inside before we all come down with pneumonia." Joe fussed. He was such a worry wart! We've only been outside for five minutes.

"And miss this?" Matt, TK's older brother, asked, shocked, "The sky's like, short circuiting!"

A green vortex formed in the sky, and released eight red glowing streaks of light. I quickly wrapped my arms around the girl with the pink hat, so she wasn't hurt. I heard multiple groans, and I opened my eyes. Snow was flying everywhere, and I couldn't see for a minute. I looked at the girl, "Are you alright, uh...?" I asked, trailing off when I realized I didn't know her name.

"Mimi, and yeah, I am. Thank you...um, hehe, I haven't seen you before, what's your name?" She asked. Mimi, hmm, fits perfectly.

"I'm Aaron. I just moved to Japan two weeks ago from America." I explained.

"Everyone alright?" I heard Sora ask. Matt looked up from protecting TK.

"We're still here."

Mimi looked up from holding her hat, and from my arms, "That was scary!"

I nodded, "Yeah, it was."

Joe groaned, "What was it?"

In the ground in front of me and Mimi were two holes. I looked in them, "Falling stars?"

"Meteors?" Izzy inquired right after me. A blue object surrounded in light started floating out of the hole in front of me, and for some reason, I felt the need to grab it, so I did. When I opened my hand, it showed a light blue remote thingy. It looked like a type of video game.

"What are these?" Sora asked, looking at the same thing in her hand.

"My guess would be some sort of miniature remote digital apparatus." Izzy said, with little to no emotion. Man, I would fall asleep listening to one conversation with this guy.

Joe looked at his, before looking around, "No instructions?" He joked.

Tai yelled, "Forget instructions! Surfs up!"

Out of nowhere a giant blue wave swept us up and we went flipping and twisting and falling until the world went black.

"Hey, Aaron! Aaron, wake up! Wakey wakey!" A small voice called to me. I groaned, opening my eyes. I could tell I was in a forest, because of all the trees around. The thing that caught my attention though, was the thing on my chest. It looked like a tiny cat. It had very short legs, and tiny claws at the end of each one. It had a medium sized tail, with a very bright red tip. It's fur was a light brown color, and on it's head were two pointed ears with little red tufts on each point. The thing that made it different though was on it's back were tiny wings. They didn't look good for flying, but you never know.

My eyes widened as I pushed it off me, "What the heck?!" I pushed myself away from this thing, until my back was pressed against a tree. It hopped closer to me, "Aww, Aaron, you don't have to be scared. I'm your friend!" It said in a happy voice. It sounded female, but I wasn't sure.

I raised an eyebrow, "Friend? What the heck are you? Who are you?" I asked. She bounced up onto my lap, so her face was in mine, "I'm Nekomon, and I'm here to be your friend!" She said, all smiley and happy.

I opened my mouth, but was interuppted when a walking green plant hopped out of a bush. It turned to the bush it came out of, "Mimi! Over here!" She said, in a raspy voice.

Mimi? She was here too?

"Tanemon, don't run away like that again!" I heard Mimi scold as she stepped into clear sight. I grinned, standing up, "Mimi!"

She looked over to me, and smiled, "Hey Aaron! You're here too?"

I nodded, and turned to Nekomon, "Yeah, and I woke up with this thing in my face." I explained. Nekomon frowned, "I'm not a thing, I'm a digital monster, or Digimon or short." She huffed, before bouncing into my arms.

I sighed, before looking down at Tanemon, "So Mimi, you have your own personal creature, like me?" I wondered.

Mimi nodded, "Yeah, I woke up and she was just there. Pretty strange if you ask me." she confirmed.

Suddenly, a loud roar was heard and I looked around. There were trees falling and soon they all fell to reveal a really big beetle. Nekomon gasped, "That's Kuwagamon, and you'll need more than a fly swatter to beat him."

Kuwagamon roared again, and took off into the air, right towards us! I grabbed Mimi's arms and took off away from it. "Somebody help us!" Mimi yelled out, hoping someone could hear her.

Soon, we reached a clearing, and Mimi fell on the ground, trying to catch her breath. Tanemon hopped to her side, "Don't worry, Tanemon's here to protect you." She tried comforting the girl.

I sighed, before hearing footsteps. I turned to see everyone else in the group running to us. "Mimi! Aaron!" Sora exclaimed, running to us, with a hopping radish next to her.

"Oh Sora!" Mimi cried, scared for her life.

Tai looked around, before speaking, "Watch it, here he comes!"

"RUN!" Sora yelled. She didn't need to tell me twice. I ran with everyone else, right behind Matt and right in front of Joe. I looked behind me, to see Kuwagamon tearing the trees down. I tackled Matt to the ground, who tackled TK. "Down!" He yelled.

Kuwagamon flew over us, and dissappeared into the forest. I knew we weren't through with him though. Joe groaned, "Will this nightmare ever end? My mom is gonna want a complete and total refund!"

Yokomon jumped up and down, "Here he comes again!" She shouted, facing to the trees where we saw Kuwagamon knocking them down one by one.

"Okay that does it! No more running away!" Tai yelled, turning to face the giant bug. I rolled my eyes.

"And what else do you expect us to do?" I asked, not looking for an answer.

Matt nodded, "He's right, there's no way we can fight that thing."

Izzy agreed, "Not and win anyway."

We all just kept running through the woods, as fast as we could. I looked back, hoping we lost the big bug, but no, sadly we didn't. Soon, we ran out of forest and onto a cliff. We were stuck, and there was no where to go.

Matt sighed, "Great. Anyone bring a helicopter?"

I checked my pockets, "Ahh, darn it, I forgot it, along with my private jet plane!" I retorted, not really in the mood for jokes.

Tai went over to the edge, while we waited. He looked down and sighed, "There's no way down. We're gonna have to find another way."

Sora sighed, exasperated, "Another way where?"

I ws just about to ask the same thing when Kuwagamon burst out of the forest and over the cliff. I thought he forgot about us, but apparently not. He made a U-turn and headed straight for Tai and the rest of us.

Koromon hopped on Tai's shoulder and jumping up to face the giant beetle. He blew some bubbles at him, but it barely bothered him. The beetle hit the pink monster and he fell painfully to the ground. Yokomon shouted out, "Digimon attack!"

Nekomon jumped out of my arms along with the rest of the digimon and they all did the same as Koromon. It yielded the same results too, except Kuwagamon seemed blinded by the bubbles. He crashed into the trees behind us, knocked out for a bit.

Nekomon landed on the ground, and she didn't move. I got worried, and yelled, "Nekomon!" I ran to her side, and picked her up. She opened her eyes slightly, "Aaron, did I do good?"

I smiled, happy she was alive, "Yeah, you were amazing."

She smiled at me. I hugged her close. Something about this creature made me feel drawn to her. A familiar roar blasted through the air, and Kuwagamon revealed himself from the trees. I ran over to where Tai was, and everyone did the same. "Get back!" Matt warned.

No, I want to be near the giant monster! Sora sounded frustrated, "I was hoping we'd seen the last of him."

Tai nodded, "Me too. Looks like he had other plans."

Matt scoffed, "I knew I should've brought my bug spray."

I looked at him, "Somehow, I don't think that would help that much."

Kuwagamon took a step to us, and we all braced ourselves. "Okay, get ready to run!" Tai ordered, his voice full of panic.

Koromon spoke, "No we fight! That's right! It's the only way! Stand and fight!"

Tai tried to talk him out of it, "Give it up, will ya?"

The pink blob in Izzy's hands nodded, "Koromon's right, it's time we showed what we're made of."

Izzy shook his head, "No don't!" Wow, that's the most emotion I've heard in his voice so far.

Joe, Sora, Matt and TK's Digimon went beserk, trying to escape their partner's grasp on them. I looked down to Nekomon, "You sure?" I asked her.

She nodded, "I need to protect you!" She said.

I sighed, but let her go as she hopped towards the beetle. Apparently everyone escaped and now they were all hopping to hopefully save the day. I looked at Nekomon, before yelling after her, "Watch out Nekomon!"

Everyone else shouted at their partners, but suddenly, a black cloud came above the eight digimon, and they were all covered in a pillar of different colors.

"Koromon digivolve to...Agumon!" Koromon transformed into a yellow dinosaur standing on two feet with green eyes.

"Yokomon digivolve to...Biyomon!" Yokomon went from being a plant to being a pink bird. She had blue feathers on the back of her head and had a single pink and blue feather sticking out on the top of her head. She had red claws on her wings and a metal cuff on one of her talons.

"Motimon digivolve to...Tentomon!" Motimon went from blob to beetle. He was now an insect with a big red shell and green eyes. He had black spikes on his back and he had a pair of long arms, and a pair of really short ones.

"Tsunomon digivolve to...Gabumon!" Tsunomon turned into a wolf creature with a unicorn horn. His fur covered only his back, leaving his front in full view. On his stomach were some weird markings. His fur was white and blue.

"Tokomon digivolve to...Patamon!" Patamon looked alot like Tokomon, only his top half of his body was orange and his ears were wings.

"Bukamon digivolve to...Gomamom!" Bukamon's little orange tuft of hair turned into a mohawk. He was now a seal with purple markings on his fur and he had large black claws on each flipper.

"Tanemon digivolve to...Palmon!" Palmon looked like she was a walking flower. On her head, was infact a pink flower that looked like hair, and her body grew so she was now on two legs. Her feet were roots and her claws were green and purple.

"Nekomon digivolve to...Tigreramon!" Nekomon was no longer a little kitten. She was now on two legs and she grew to be up to my hip. Her fur went from brown, to white with blue stripes. she wore a light blue headband with a black marking on the ends. Her wings grew too and they were white and blue. They were bird like wings, and they stretched about a foot and half out each. Her stomach was a gray. In all honesty, I thought she looked badass.

The light went away, and when we looked back to the battlefield, we no longer saw the little guys were became friends with. Instead, there were eight intense looking monsters, ready to kick butt.

We all looked on in awe. "Whoa, what happened to the little guys?"

Tai answered with an obvious answer, "They're...bigger."

All eight of them tried headbutting Kuwagamon at the same time, but he knocked them back, not being affected at all. Agumon glared at the creature, "Alright, you asked for it."

The bug tried to fly, but Palmon wouldn't let him. "Poison Ivy!" Her fingers became long vines that wrapped around the bugs feet pulling him down.

Patamon inflated himself, "Boom Bubble!" He opened his mouth, releasing a ball of condensed air. It hit Kuwagamon's head, snapping it down. Tentomon and Tigreramon flew up together and called out their attacks.

"Super Shocker!"

"Artic Freeze!"

Tentomon shot electricity out of his back, while Tigreramon blew an icy wind at the bug. They both hit, making Kuwagamon put a foot down. Gomamon rolled underneath, making him lose balance and land on his knees.

Agumon stood ready for battle, "Alright, stand back everyone! Pepper Breath!" He shot a fire ball out of his mouth, and it hit Kuwagamon right on his head.

Gabumon was next, and he ran in front, and fired a stream of blue fire, "Blue Blaster!" It hit the same place Agumon's attack hit.

Biyomon flew up into Kuwagamon's face and flapped really hard, creating a light green whirlwind made of fire. "Spiral Twister!"

Together, the three attacks seemed to hurt the giant bug a ton. Agumon stood in the middle of the group, and announced to everyone, "Now, all together!"

They all fired their attacks at the big pest, and he lit up like a christmas tree. He fell backwards into the forest, hopefully down for the count. We all stood their, in shock. These little guys went from adorable weaklings to kick butt heros!

Izzy spoke first, "They made vapor-ware out of him." He was just as stunned as the rest of us were. Tai nodded, "Amazing!"

All of the digimon ran back to us, and I quickly took off towards my tigress digimon. "Tigreramon!" I yelled, hugging her. I heard a loud purring sound, and looked down at her, and saw she was smiling. "You were amazing!"

She looked away, blushing, "Aww, I was just trying to protect you." She said, sheepishly.

I smiled, "Well, what ever you were doing, thank you. One question, how did you turn into this?" I asked her, genuinely interested.

A loud thump interupted us, and looking back towards the forest, I saw a red claw. Tai was the closest to the forest and he didn't seem to notice Kuwagamon was back, and no doubt, he was ticked beyond belief.

Sora screamed, "Watch out!"

Tai ran back towards us, just barely dodging the pincers of the bug. They were sent into the ground, and Tai decided to comment, "Looks like we celebrated too soon."

The hole Kuwagamon's pincers made stretched across the cliff, breaking it off. I lost my balance, and fell backwards, along with everyone else. I saw there was a river, far below, but I think it was a given that we wouldn't survive. Oh well, good bye cruel world.
