An animal-like shadow darted into the seemingly empty streets. A car turned the corner, and the creature froze; its dark orange body was completely illuminated in the headlights. Before the car could reach it, the black-striped creature leaped into the air, coming down on the hood of the car and climbing onto the roof.

The car swerved as the driver yelled, "What the hell is that?!"

The creature fled, and the driver pulled over to inspect the conspicuous dent in the hood of his car.

"In today's news, another strange animal has been sited. The witness described it as having orange and black-striped fur, a black mane, sharp claws, and it's nearly the equivalent in size to a Saint Bernard or an English Mastiff dog. This animal is thought to be the same one from recent sightings, and Animal Control states that even though the animal might not be inherently dangerous, caution should still be taken. Back to you, Brent..."

Jenna zoned out while quietly eating her cereal.

Could this be another digimon?

This called for investigation, but with how paranoid her parents were about this, she couldn't get a free moment to herself outside the house. She had to go straight to school and come straight home; any deviation from this schedule would be cause for alarm.

But in reality, she wasn't completely helpless. She had her own digimon - not that anyone could ever know about him.

If anyone knew, they would be separated. Best case scenario would be simply that her parents would take him away to keep their daughter out of danger. Worst case scenario, well...

Jenna shuddered. She couldn't even think about what could happen.

Honestly, she didn't really know.

But what she did know was that tonight, she was sneaking out.

A/N: This is the first thing in a while that I've posted here, and I actually wrote this a few months back. Anyway, this drabble ended up being part of a 3 (or more) part series involving a bunch of fanmade digimon so that's why it's a little choppy and lacks description.
