Author's note: This is sort of like a intro and prologue to the characters and setting and story. Here I'll briefly explain what happened from when the dgiimon landed in the real world to when this story actual starts itself in the next chapter.

Date: Friday, April 30; 12 AM
Night fell over the city, and silence filled most of the streets besides the odd car that drove by. Deep in amoungst trees in the middle of town, in an old park, something happened this night that was not normal.
Most people were asleep and not around the area, so it was a perfect spot for a portal to open. A flash of light emerged from out of nowhere near the swingset, releasing four figures who landed on the ground. The portal behind them closed quickly, and the area was filled with the night once again.
The creatures hid behind some bushes just in case any humans walked by. But the close was clear..
One of them spoke in a scratchy, yet, excited voice, "I-Is everyone alright?! I think we're in the human world now!!"
"Shh, stay quiet Veemon!" another voice hissed from the darkness. It sounded more feminine and quiet. "I think everybody is here. Now we must go and set out on our tasks as we were told."
"Right," yet another voice said. This one sounded a bit deeper than Veemon's but still young, "We will meet eachother again once we find our partners. It might take a while to find the true, pure-hearted ones. He said once we find the right person, we will be connected by a light, and He called the device a Digivice-"
"I think we're missing somebody." Another voice said from the background. This one was also female, and squeaky, "I think we lost a comrade while coming into the Digital World."
They fell silent, but then Veemon said, "Don't worry about Agumon, he'll be fine. We'll meet up later. For now, let's all split and get going! I can't wait to find my partner!"
"Right!" The four said in usion, and all ran off in different directions.

Few days later...
Wenesday May 5, 3:00 pm
The school bell rang through the school's walls, signfiying the teenagers can now leave and go and do their own thing. Haku has been waiting for this day to end, not only he wanted to play video games at home, but because he sits through school all day, bored out of his mind. Haku ran out of his class room ( with the teacher yelling for him to stay for detention), and zoomed through the halls. People were bickering at him to watch where he was going, and a few minutes later he accidently bumped into a blonde hair girl while turning the corner. Their books flew everywhere and landed on the floor.
"Oof!" They both grunted as they both fell over from the collision. After glancing at eachother, both of them quickly picked up their books.
"Sorry!" Haku quickly said, standing up, and helping the girl up in the process. She was one of those students who he always saw in the halls ever since fifth grade but never really talked to.
The girl rubbed her head and blinked, "It's okay..." The girl turned holding onto her stuff tighter, and walked the other direction.
Haku sighed slightly, feeling kind of bad now, but then set off again down the hall towards for his locker, and to finally go home.
Haku had to go all the way downstairs to the first floor to get to his locker. He stepped infront of the locker, but heard something move in it. Haku stopped himself from opening the locker door, "Not again..." he mumbled. After a couple of bangs from the inside, Haku swiftly opened his locker and raised his fist to prepare to punch some monster in the face. This time, he thought, he would catch whatever it was that has been scurrying in his locker for the past few days.
But, to Haku's surprise, the Digimon jumped into him instead of running off this time, throwing him off slightly as he fell backwards. Haku groaned as his back hurt from the fall, and the little Digimon jumped up and down onto his face. All Haku could see what a red blob bouncing up and down.
Other people around Haku were either laughing, teasing him because it looked like a stuff animal, or were frightened. But how could they be scared of a cute little sun Digimon that was on Haku's face?
Haku pushed the Digimon off, "What the- what are you and what are you doing?!!" Haku said very loudly, creating more attention around him. Haku looked around, "There's nothing to see here!" he said to everybody around him. He quickly grabbed the Digimon, slammed his locker shut, and ran out the back door of the school. He heard some cruel shouts from his schoolmates behind him.
Haku slowed down once he was several feet away and mumbled, "What is wrong with those people?"
He looked down at the Digimon while walking. It was staring at him. With a cute face. Haku turned it around so it faced the other direction, but the Digimon turned its body to face him again.
"Hi! I'm Sunmon!" The Digimon squeaked. Haku jumped slightly and dropped the Digimon - by accident. Haku muttered some things, then said to Sunmon once he picked it up again,
"Who...what.....?" Haku didn't know what to say. He looked around. Maybe he can give this little guy to some kid. But he frowned slightly, looking down again at Sunmon, "Have you been in my locker every day this week this whole time?"
"Why, yes I have!" Sunmon exclaimed. Haku jumped again. This Digimon talked loudly.
Haku, slightly embarassed by some people giving him looks as he walked by them, said, "I don't appreciate you doing this..."
Sunmon blinked, "But what am I doing wrong?" He beamed at Haku, "Let me stay with you!"
"What, no!" Haku exclaimed. "I'll put you up somewhere for someone else to take."
Sunmon smirked, "Ah, but you see, you can't do that. Once I choose you, you can't turn back..." Sunmon looked up at Haku, who stopped walking and stared at the Digimon. What exactly did he mean by that...

"People..." Lyn mumbled as she walked down the hall of the school. She rubbed her forehead after the collision a few minutes ago with Haku, a boy whom she's been classmates with since a long time ago. She went to her locker to put her books back, and walked out of the school a few minutes later.
It was a fairly nice day out. The sun shone brightly down upon the city and the birds sang and chirped around her as she walked out of the school yard and onto a street. Before going home however, Lyn went to an old park a couple of blocks away from the school. She liked going here, because it was so peaceful and she can be alone and have some time to think and clear thoughts. Hardly any kids go to this spot.
Once at the park, she went over to the swing set and sat herself down on an old rusty swing. She put her bag down beside her, and sat there staring at the sand in the playground. She was looking at a particular spot that she has been avoiding for the past week. It felt strange being around that area, as if there was another presence there, plus the fact that there were weird footprints in the sand, that did not look like human feet. It could have been other animals, but this park was so old and creepy that there's hardly any life anymore around it.
She happened to glance away when she saw a shadow of a weird looking plant above her on the ground. Lyn blinked, startled slightly as she looked up quickly. Up on top of the swingset on the pole, there was a plant shaped like it was in the shadow, but pink and blue with huge green eyes.
"Hi there!" The little Digimon squeaked.
Lyn quickly stood up from the swing and turned to face this plant, "I...uh..." Lyn was left speechless. Wouldn't it look silly talking to a plant? Lyn looked around, almost forgetting that she was alone, so it wouldn't matter. She grabbed her bag, then started to walk away. Perhaps she was just imagining things and needed to go to bed..
But she wasn't imagining things. Lyn, somehow, sensed the plant's presence behind her. It was real, and a living thing. Lyn stopped, turning around and looking down at it, "Excuse me, but what are you...?" Lyn gripped her bag strap tighter.
Yokomon smiled, "I'm a Yokomon! A Digimon!"
Lyn blinked, "Um...okay...." she didn't exactly know what that was. Lyn rose a brow, "Then I'll ask...why are you here..."
"Simple! I picked you to be my partner!" Yokomon exclaimed, beaming at Lyn. Lyn was left speechless. What was she supposed to say? ...

Amelia silently walked into her house, not greeted by anybody but her pet cat, and made her way into the kitchen. She found a note on the fridge from her parents. They were out. Again. Amelia growled slightly throwing it into the garbage and got some food out of the fridge. Afterwards, she made her way into the living room. She had the house to herself for a few hours. Nice.
Amelia grinned slightly and layed back on the couch, put her feet up on the arm rests (which she was never allowed to do), and turned on the tv. Once watching some of the local news and eating whatever she had with her, she dug out her homework from school and started to work away, writing down answers to silly questions anybody could have figured out.
With the tv on, showing some cartoons now, Amelia didn't hear the first knock on the patio window behind her. She thought it was her cat playing around the door again, but when she looked, she didn't see her cat. She saw a head of a cat. It was yellow, had huge red eyes and a long tail.
Amelia dropped her pen and quickly looked around. Was she going crazy? When the creature knocked again with its tail, Amelia quickly stood up and backed away from her back door. She looked around the house. Her pet cat wasn't anywhere, but Amelia sort of wished it was here to shoo off whatever the heck that thing was outside in their yard.
"Open up!" The small creature said from outside. Amelia quickly looked at it, hearing the muffled voice since it was behind a thick glass door, and bit her lip.
"If you're some stupid childish joke that the kids play on me around here, this isn't funny. Go away!" Amelia shouted back at it. She thought she must have looked silly in this situation. But she thought it was a puppet or something and wanted the kids to go away.
"But...I'm not a kid! I'm a Digimon named Nyaromon!" Nyaromon blinked, slightly confused. Why was Amelia not letting her inside? Nyaromon knocked again, this time more violently.
Amelia finally went over to the back door and slowly opened it. She peeked out, looking closer at Nyaromon. "Maybe you're not a puppet afterall..." Amelia finally said after feeling around Nyaromon, and poking it to make sure it was actually real.
"Well silly of course I'm not!" Nyaromon said, looking up at Amelia.
Amelia sighed slightly, thinking it was stupid to even think that in the first place, and stood up, "Now that we've established you're real, what do you want..."
"Well I've been following you!" Nyaromon said happily, acting as if it was a normal thing to do. Next, to Amelia's surprised, Nyaromon hopped inside her house and looked around, gazing at the furniture.
Amelia looked around, unsure of what to do about this thing in her house, "Why have you been following me...this isn't normal..."
"Oh, it's not?" Nyaromon blinked and turned to face her, "I thought I can follow you anywhere Amelia. But I finally decided to pick you."
Amelia, slightly confused, leaned back againt her back door, "Wait...slow down. How do you know my name..."
"I was following you." Nyaromon stated, as it was already mentioned before. Though Nyaromon was slightly amused at the confusion.
Amelia sighed heavily, feeling slightly annoyed and confused at the same time, "I don't get it...where did you come from and for what purpose..." she said, staring at this creature that was new to her...

Max sat in a dirty alleyway, eating a bit of food he had gotten from the house he was currently living in. He wouldn't exactly call it a home. He considerde this his dinner and was used to short portions of food everyday like this. Max sighed as he finished it, and looked around the dark allyway. He felt bored and needed something to do. He wasn't even supposed to be outside right now, but he didn't care. He like roaming around the city on his own.
Taking out his pencil and paper, he started to write down thoughts and feelings on it. He started to put on random words that came to his head.
'Help me...poor...lost...lonely...poor...I want freedom...family...'
He usually does this to clear his thoughts and express himself, but only he is allowed to read his own notepads and papers...
"Whatch'ya writing?" a voice said beside him, making him jump and move away from the source of the voice.
Max blinked and stared at a blue creature with over-sized red eyes that was staring back at him with a huge smile on his face. Max backed away, quickly stuffing the paper and pencil into his pocket. He stood up and looked down at it.
"Sorry to startle you," the creature said cheerfully. It stuck out a tiny round hand to shake Max's hand, "I'm DemiVeemon!"
Max didn't know what to say. But he didn't want to stay here with some random blue...thing.. that appeared out of nowhere to obviously bother him. He hated when people came up to him like that. Max scowled, then walked away and out onto the street.
But the whole time, as Max walked a few blocks further, the blue creature appeared everywhere he was. Max finally settled himself down to a lonely tree at a busy newer park of the area and looked around.
It seemed to be clear, until DemiVeemon jumped down out of the tree and landed on Max's lap.
Max moved slightly and jumped when Demiveemon did this, as he did not see this coming. Max quickly grabbed DemiVeemon, and placed him onto the ground. Max frowned at DemiVeemon, who beamed at him. He wondered how this creature seemed happy, and why he was even with somebody like himself, little poor Max, as people like to call him.
Max sighed, giving up from running away, and finally spoke to DemiVeemon, "What do you want with me...?" Max's voice sounded quiet, shy, and scratchy as if he was sick...

After this fateful day with their Digimon partners, their Digimon introduced the rest of the group to eachother a couple days later by having them meet up in the park. They were of course at first confused and didn't think it was a good idea to get involved, but after a couple of weeks the group got to know eachother and slowly learn what all this Digimon stuff was about.
When did they meet up the first time however, they were all given a Digivice that mysteriously appeared before them. The Digimon themselves didn't know a lot about these strange devices, but they were put into good use for the couple of weeks because of a few random Digimon attacks in the real world in their city. And that was hard to explain for their partners too. Why were there evil Digimon coming into the real world all the sudden? These random attacks seemed on purpose, and perhaps a test for the Digidestined. Their In-training Digimon were able to digivolve using these Digivices into their normal rookie forms during a random attack.
So now, because of the threat of having evil Digimon attacks, it makes sense that there is something wrong in the Digital World. Their Digimon partners know very little though about what's going on, and the only way to find out is to go to the Digital World themselves. But the problem was finding a portal.
Often they would see a flash or blink of light that is a portal (according to the Digimon) appear in random places. But it wouldn't stay long enough for them to do anything.
So the goal now, and where this story starts, is for them to find a portal and get to the Digital World so they can find out what's going on and why there are evil Digimon. And the Digidestined will soon have to face evil, tainted enemies on their journey and try to help both worlds, and the same time fighting through their own problems and finding their own paths, which is hopefully the good one. Their Destiny awaits them..
