SHIBUYA, TOKYO, JAPAN
Thunder and lightning struck, the city of Shibuya was in complete darkness. A young girl, around the age of 10, looked up at the sky. She glared into the dark and mysterious looking clouds while droplets of rain rolled down her rosy cheeks.
"It's time…" She mumbled under her breath. Indeed, it was time. Time for the world to change, it was time for her adventure to begin.
Rushing down the street, the girl had a coat on but her lavender hair shyly showed itself. She dodged and ran past civilians to get to where she needed to go. She halted in front of a large group of people. Above the crowd was a gigantic screen broadcasting the news. News about the thunderstorm had spread all over Japan.
All of the sudden, a rustle could be heard from her bag. Then, an ear popped out. It was not a human ear, nor an animal's ear. It was elongated like a rabbit's, but sphere like. Its coat was shiny and it was purple and blue in colour. The lavender haired girl shoved the strange ear back into the bag without once turning away from the huge screen.
"Breaking News: A thunderstorm has mysteriously appeared over Shibuya. Scientists and meteorologists are baffled, as there is no disturbance in the wind pattern around Japan. The lightning, however, seems to be situated near the Shibuya station…"
Shibuya station. That was it. There was no need for the child to hear anymore, she knew where she was going. She ran once more, faster than before. No longer dodging, she was now shoving. This girl was desperate to get to the station.
She halted once again. She was staring at the station like it was the only thing in the world. The ear popped up again, this time there were two. A head came out as well. It was now clear that this creature was a Lunamon. Since this girl is accompanied by a digimon, it is obvious that she is a DigiDestined. If a DigiDestined is here, then the Digital World must be in danger.
The city turned dark in almost an instant. All the city's power was out. Amidst all the darkness, a shining portal glowed brighter than the sun. The young girl squinted her eyes as she approached the portal. She reached out her hand while holding a strange gadget, a Digivice, and a strong gust of wind suddenly came her way. Her hood was blown back and you could now see her face. She had a pale complexion, bright red cheeks, blood red lips and beautiful violet eyes. After the strong gust of wind, she and the portal vanished. Leaving the city in total darkness.
This beautiful girl was no longer in Shibuya or anywhere in Japan. She, as you may have guessed, had entered the Digital World. She was in middle of a dessert now, nothing around but digital tumbleweeds. Also, passing through the portal made several minor changes to her appearance. The school uniform she wore just before entering the portal was now a long, flowing white dress. Her brown coat has transformed into an elegant silk one. Her eyes were covered with light eye shadow that matched her complexion and her hair was sparkling, as if crushed diamond had been sprinkled over her head. The most noticeable of all the changes would have to be the mark on her forehead. It was a crest of some sort.
The child continued on her journey, not fazed by the change of scenery. As she walks down her pathless path, the crest embedded on her forehead slowly started to fade. Lunamon, who had been hiding for quite some time, hopped up onto the young girl's shoulder and sat there as elegant as her tamer.
"Mmm…. You've been awfully quiet. I'm really quite worried. What is it on your mind that has kept you from speaking?" Lunamon broke the silence.
"Hmm? Sorry to worry you, Lunamon. It's nothing." She replied.
She continued walking, not a single expression on her face.
The tiny creature asked once again, "It was always a wonder what you thought about. However, I am worried. Would you please tell me what is on your mind? Just this once, please?"
This time the girl didn't respond. It was not because she didn't wish to, it was because she was so deep in thought that if Azulongmon had appeared before her she wouldn't have noticed. Lunamon fell silent, she knew that her partner didn't mean to ignore her. The little moon digimon let out a sigh and dug her tiny face into her best friend's hair. They went on their way to who knows where, slowly turning into silhouettes walking towards the horizon.
ODAIBA, TOYAKO, JAPAN - ISHIDA RESIDENCE
Akina Ishida, daughter of Sora and Yamato "Matt" Ishida, promptly watches the news about the thunderstorm. This little blonde girl is obsessed with everything that involves Digimon. Upon receiving her digivice and her beloved Digimon, Yokomon, she vowed upon herself that she would someday step foot on the mysterious land called the Digital World. Something about the thunderstorm had her at the edge of her seat. She thought, "Somehow, I know this is linked to the Digital World. I just know it!" She listened more and more intently, paying no attention to the food in front of her.
"Akina! If you lean anymore forward, you'll fall of your seat!" Sora worriedly yelled at her daughter.
However, instead of warning her daughter, Sora's warning startled the young blonde and she fell off her chair.
Akina's brown eyes, which were similar to Sora's, looked up to her mother sheepishly. Her blonde hair, which she inherited from her father, was in two loose pigtails with two white ribbons holding them in place. Two strands of her hair stuck out and now lay on top of her head in a V-shape. She brushed off dirt from her favourite shirt, a plain green t-shirt with a gold diamond in the middle and two lone blue stripes, one hemmed on each side. A portion of the bottom part of the shirt was tied up and left on Akina's right side. She also wore light brown shorts that were up to her knees.
"Oh, I'm sorry mom. I… just... have this need to know about the weather, you know. Aha-aha-ha." Akina lied and laughed unconvincingly. She couldn't care less about the weather. However, she couldn't let her mother know that this storm is somehow involved with the Digital World. Sora would freak out, being the worrier that she is. Akina turned her attention back to the news.
Matt chuckled at the end of the dining table. He took his wife's hand and held it in his. "Well, at least she isn't watching anything inappropriate. It's just the news, honey. It's good for kids her age to be interested in the news. Unusual, but good I suppose." He let out a chuckle once again, gave Sora a kiss on the forehead and went on to put his plate in the sink. Afterwards, he sat in the living room couch and started reading the newspaper.
"Unusual indeed. I wonder why she could be so interested in a tiny storm. I don't even have a clue as to why they call this a 'thunderstorm'. There hasn't been any lightning or thunder for hours." Sora mumbled to herself as she was cleaning the dining table. "Akina, finish your food and do your homework. After that's done, you may continue watching the television." She announced.
Akina let out a sigh and responded to her mother, "Alright, momma."
Biyomon, Sora's loyal companion, was fluttering beside her carrying a few plates on her head. "Yoko, go and help Akina."
"Do I have to? I never understand anything…" Yokomon argued as she hopped her way to her tamer.
Akina giggled and playfully rolled her eyes at her digimon. She turned to her father, "Hey, dad! I got dibs on the TV once I'm done with my homework, okay?"
"Sure, sure, but only when you finish your homework. When do you think that'll be? 10 years maybe?" Matt responded jokingly. Sora and Matt laughed in unison with their Digimon while Yokomon dropped to the floor laughing.
"Hey! That's not very nice, daddy." Akina only ever used the terms 'mommy' and 'daddy' when she was trying to give her parents the guilt trip or if she needed to suck up to them. "I thought parents were supposed to be supportive of their kids…" Scowled their only daughter.
"Yokomon! Don't laugh too!" She shouted at the hysterical digimon.
"I wasn't laughing at you, I was laughing at your father's joke!" Yokomon told her infuriated friend.
Matt laughed once more and gave a high five to Yokomon. He then turned to his daughter, "I was only joking, Akina. Go ahead and the TV will be yours when you come back. Oh, and be careful not to wake your brother. It'll take all night to put him to bed."
"Okay, I'll be careful." With this, Akina beckoned Yokomon onto her shoulder and ran up the stairs to her bedroom while slowing down only in front of her six year old brother's room. Once she reached her room, she jumped on her bed and flipped her book. "Alright, where do I start?"
BASE OF INFINITY MOUNTAIN, FILE ISLAND, DIGITAL WORLD
About an hour had passed since the lavender-haired girl first entered the digital world.
Strong wind and rain had been surrounding File Island. Now, at the middle of the island, the girl and her Lunamon are still on their journey.
"Achoo!" And her poor Lunamon was catching a cold.
"Bless you. Lunamon, you look tired. If you want, we could stay and camp here for the night." The girl patted her best friend's head and lay her down on the ground.
"I'm o-oka-ACHOO!" The tiny digimon just couldn't stop sneezing.
"Alright then, I'll set up our tent." Lunamon's tamer waved her hand and summoned an even stronger gust of wind but this one didn't faze the two at all. The tent was set up in a matter of minutes without either friend touching it. "Done. Now, go inside. I don't want that cold to get any worse."
Lunamon stood from where she was seated. She wobbled at first but got her balance back straight away. "May I ask how far are we from that place?"
"Not far, dear. It's just at the top of this mountain." The child took her little Digi partner and cradled her in her arms. "Now go to sleep, little one. Rest your tired eyes. For tomorrow, our long hike to the top shall begin."
Inside the tent, she lay her friend down on a blanket she brought along with her. She started to think and wonder about this journey.
"That man said that this was going to be a tough adventure. He also said that I should be prepared to go on it alone. I'm not entirely alone though, I have Lunamon." She took a quick glance at her sleeping partner.
"I don't want her to get hurt. Maybe I should just go home, Lunamon would be safe from danger that way." The child shook her head and continued with her thoughts.
"No! If I go back now, what's going to happen to the Digi World? I need to stay, and I've known Lunamon long enough to know that she won't leave unless I do. What am I going to do…?"
The young girl leaned against the tree that was supporting the tent and she slowly closed her eyes and drifted off to her dreams.
ODAIBA, TOKYO, JAPAN - KAMIYA RESIDENCE
Silence was all over the Kamiya household. Not a single whisper, just the sound of beating hearts and simultaneous breaths.
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
The silence was broken.
"Arashi, dinner."
A little boy is revealed behind the door that was knocked on. Young Arashi Kamiya was doing as he always does when he's home, scribbling away into his notebook. He often used to makes poems, stories and drawings when he felt lonely. After his mother passed, this was all he ever did. He lay down his pencil and stood up. "Alright, I'm coming." Arashi mumbled, his words were almost inaudible.
His brown hair was messy, much like his father's when he was his age. He wore a black shirt, which was half covered by a white button up shirt he left open. His grey shorts just added the eyrie aura that surrounded him.
His partner Digimon, Koromon, looked up to him with eyes filled with worry. "Arashi, I-" Koromon tried to speak, but Arashi wouldn't let him.
"It's alright, Koromon. I'm fine, see?" He forced a smile to stop worry from taking over his friend. It didn't fool Koromon though he was still worried.
Arashi was the coolest boy at school. He made it upon himself to make everyone laugh and enjoy themselves, this was the reason he was so well known. However, his smile at school quickly disappears when he reaches his home. He has never told anyone about his mother's death, so no one knew how torn apart he really was. Only a few people knew, including the older DigiDestined and their families.
His best friends are Akina Ishida and Shinobu "Nobu" Motomiya. Their life mission is to keep Arashi from breaking down at school or at public places. Akina's worried about him and strongly thinks he should let out his emotions. She thinks that they shouldn't be keeping this a secret. But she made a promise to him that she'd help keep his secret and so, there is nothing she can do to help her best friend.
Dinner was quiet. Agumon sat across Koromon and Tai sat across his son. Tai attempted to break the silence, "Uhm, Arashi. Would you like to come with me to Izzy's lab on Saturday? He called me this morning and I just thought-"
But Arashi cut him off, "Sure, dad. Just remind me the night before, I may forget." He continued eating dinner.
"Alright then." Taichi Kamiya sadly replied. The poor father was missing his son's smiling face so much.
The household fell silent once more.
"Thank you for the food." Arashi stood up and brought his plate to the sink.
He went back up to his room and his Koromon soon followed after saying, "Don't worry, Arashi's dad. I'll take care of him at least for tonight. Don't stress yourself, okay?" Koromon gave a weak smile before following his tamer to his bedroom.
Agumon started, "Tai…" But he couldn't finish what he was saying.
"He's in the darkness, Agumon. He's helpless and alone and there's nothing I can do to help. I'm useless!" Tai slammed his fist onto the dining table. The impact was hard enough to make the entire table quiver.
Agumon gave Tai a concerned look. "There really isn't much you can do…" He stood from his seat and walked over to his best friend and placed his hand over Tai's shoulder.
"I just wish she was here… She always knew how to handle these things better than I did…" Tears rolled down Tai's saddened face and Agumon stood loyally beside his partner as he always had since the day they met.
ODAIBA, TOKYO, JAPAN - IZUMI RESIDENCE
"PAPA!" Screamed a little red-haired girl of 10. "MAMA!" The poor panicking Izumi girl yelled and screamed.
"ANYONE! THERE'S A MOUSE IN MY ROOM!" Yes, a mouse. A mouse is enough reason for Sachiko "Sachi" Izumi, daughter of Koushiro "Izzy" and Mimi Izumi, to call the authorities. She hates rodents and bugs. Strange, seeing as her partner digimon is Motimon. Motimon digivolves into Tentomon, the bug digimon.
Sachi stood on top of her bed with Motimon trying his best to avoid all the pillows that were coming his way. Sachiko had been trying to hit the little mouse but to no avail. Sachi's red hair was long and curled daily. She left it out to show off its length. Her eyes were brown and resembled her mother's. Her long-sleeved yellow blouse was an inch apart from her black skirt. The sleeves of her blouse were loose once they reached her wrist. A gust of wind would make them look elegant and flowing. She wore stockings and usually had boots on.
"HELP! A MOUSE! A MOUSE!"
Mimi entered her daughter's room and squealed as she saw the rodent. She climb up the bed as well and held her daughter protectively. "IZZY! GET THAT THING OUT OF HERE!"
"PAPA!" The two kept yelling and screaming until Izzy finally walked into the room.
He chuckled and said while picking up the terrified mouse.
"Look, you scared the poor thing." Miki gasped as she entered her big sister's room behind her father.
Miki is the youngest of the Izumi family. She is six-years-old and resembles her mother quite a lot more than her sister does. Miki had wavy brown hair, which she always had in two pigtails, and big dark brown eyes, which almost looked black. She always wore a pink beret along with a pink dress that reached her knees. To finish off her look, she wore brown flat shoes. She loves shopping almost as much as her mother, if that was possible. Every afternoon, just after school, her mother would take her and Sachiko to the mall just to go get some retail therapy. Unlike her mother and sister, she loves tiny creatures, which would explain why she always has Tanemon in her arms. She also takes after her father quite a bit. She loves math problems. Miki probably loves the attention she gets from her father when she solves one.
"Prodigious! Interesting little fella, aren't you? I wonder how you got in especially with Mimi's traps." He smirked at Mimi and she responded with a pouty face.
Izzy opened the window and let the mouse out. "There you go, little guy." Izzy turned to his eldest daughter and told her, "Sweetie, the worst has gone. Come to dinner with us? Your mother made pasta."
Sachi gave a sigh and replied, "Okay, papa. I'll be down in five minutes."
"Hurry, dear. Your food will get cold." Mimi reminded her as she got down the bed.
Miki ran after her mother. "Mama, I saw this really cute jacket in the new boutique in the mall." She grinned a grin so big it caused Sachi to giggle at her sister's optimism. Mimi smiled at her daughter, who was a perfect image of her.
Sachi's parents and sister left for the dining room while she stayed and looked for signs of any other unwelcomed visitors. After a few minutes, she finally concluded that her room was rodent-free.
At first glance, you would think that Sachi Izumi was nothing like her genius of a father or shopaholic mother. That wasn't the case, Sachi is practically in love with logic and science. She excelled in every class she was in, and she's the President of the Computer Club just like her father was when he was her age. She loves shopping but not as much as her mother. During her mother and sister's daily shopping ritual, she'd usually skip it and walk home with Motimon.
Sachi trotted down the stairs to the dining room and sat down with her parents and Miki as they said grace. Palmon and Tentomon were seated in the living room while they munched on the food Mimi prepared.
"So, Sachi, how was school today? Weren't you supposed to get you test in Math back?" The genius man conveyed.
"Oh yeah! I completely forgot about that. I got the highest test result in my class! 49 out of 50." The little redhead said with so much happiness.
Mimi spoke up, "That's wonderful, dear." She smiled and continued eating.
"Prodigious!" Replied Izzy. "Which part did you get wrong?" He asked while taking a sip of water.
"The explaining bit. My teacher said that I was a bit too technical and that she couldn't understand my explanation." Sachi giggled and smiled at her father. Izzy responded with a smile directed at his brilliant daughter.
"Mama, Papa, I got an A- for my art assignment." Miki grinned. Tanemon was nibbling on a piece of fruit while sitting on her tamer's lap.
Izzy looked up confused. He knew her daughter always beat herself up when she didn't get the perfect mark. "Uh… That's great, sweetheart. But don't you always hate it when you get an A-? Why are you so happy?"
"Because, papa, the criticism my teacher gave me said that I ruined the colour wheel. Apparently, I made my project a bit too pink." She grinned at her mother. She and Mimi were so alike.
"That's wonderful, dear!" Mimi's eyes glistened. Mimi and Miki both adored the colour pink.
Izzy and Sachi both hit their forehead with their hands. The Izumi family was always a sight to see. Mimi and Miki did the exact same things and Izzy and Sachi looked like clones or synchronized swimmers.
Izzy looked up and glanced at his eldest daughter, "Sachi, you should come with to my lab on Saturday. Your Uncle Tai is coming and he said that he'll ask Arashi to come-"
Sachi jumped from her seat when she heard Arashi's name and cut her father off, "I'm coming!"
"Uh, alright then." The confused father just sat there looking at his 10-year-old daughter.
"Can I come too?" The youngest Izumi spoke up.
Mimi's face started to show worry. She turned to her husband and whispered, "Honey, do you think it's a good idea to let Miki go? I don't think she's ready to hear about the you-know-what…"
Izzy chuckled which made Mimi mad. The aggravated mother softly slapped her husband on his shoulder. "It's not a laughing matter. I say she's too young."
Izzy ignored Mimi's comment and faced his six-year-old daughter, "Of course you can come, sweetheart. You just have to promise not disrupt any of the research we conducted."
"Yay! Yay! Yay! I promise, papa!"
Sachi and Miki looked at each other and grinned.
"I'm done eating! I'm gonna go up to my room and organize my clothes for Saturday. Thanks for the food, mama!" Exclaimed Miki.
"I have homework due on Monday. I'll do them now so that I don't have to worry about it on Saturday." Sachi grinned.
And with this, Sachiko and Miki Izumi ran up to their rooms and locked themselves there for the rest of the night.
BASE OF INFINITY MOUNTAIN, FILE ISLAND, DIGITAL WORLD
"The night is drawing to a close." The lavender-haired girl thought to herself.
Lunamon's eyes flickered and she gave a great big yawn. "Have you been up all night, milady?" The little Lunamon drowsily asked her tamer.
"Yes, I need no sleep. The moon of the digital world gives me all the energy I need." She replied wisely.
"Is that so? Actually, I feel quite refreshed as well. I don't think I'll need any sleep tonight." Lunamon responded while brushing up her fur.
The girl looked up onto the mountain, "Are you ready, my friend? We must reach the top by the end of the day."
"I am always ready, milady."
The child smiled gently and said, "Then we shall start our hike."
ODAIBA ELEMENTARY, ODAIBA, TOKYO, JAPAN
"HEY, GUYS!" A voice from across the road yelled over to the trio of drowsy eleven-year-olds.
Akina Ishida, Arashi Kamiya and Nobu Motomiya were on their way to school when they saw Naomi Hida, Cody's one and only child. The three best friends weren't as energetic as her for school. As soon as they crossed the road they met up with Naomi.
Akina spoke first, "Hey..." She said tiredly.
"What's up, Naomi?" Nobu asked trying to at least sound alive.
Arashi let go of his depressed look and put on a grin. "How are you, Naomi?"
"Same old, same old." Naomi smiled and linked arms with Arashi and Nobu.
Akina immediately woke up and shouted, "HEY! I'M supposed to be walking to school with them, NOT YOU."
"Jealousy isn't your best colour, sweetie." The cheeky girl teased her infuriated friend.
The Ishida girl just glared at her. She was about to speak when the bell rang. "Ack! I'll deal with you later." She grabbed her two best friend's arms and dragged them to class.
"Boy hog." The young Hida remarked before waving goodbye to the two boys who were being dragged away.
Akina was in her usual spot, in front of Arashi and next to Nobu. Her seat was next to the window as well, giving her the chance to stare out of it and daydream to her little heart's content.
Unfortunately for her, today they had a casual science teacher. He was going on and on about the reflex arc and Akina couldn't care less. This teacher just so happened to be really strict and Akina caught his eye.
"Miss Ishida, is my class boring to you?" He called across the room.
Akina didn't hear.
"Miss Ishida!"
Still nothing.
"Aki!" Nobu whispered to his best friend, trying to get her attention. It worked.
"Hmm? What is it, Nobu?" She finally replied. By this time, their teacher had come up to Akina's desk and slammed his ruler on her table.
"Miss Ishida, not only did you drift away into your own little world, you also ignored me. I have called you twice and I didn't get a single response from you! Go to the principal's office NOW!" Mr Tanaka, their teacher, said angrily.
All she did was look at him, still confused with the situation.
Mr Tanaka continued, "Unless of course you could recite the Reflex Arc to the entire class." He smirked.
Akina never completely drifts off. She has this unique skill; whatever she hears, even if she's not paying attention, it sticks to her brain like glue.
Akina chuckled and looked at him straight in the eye, "Of course, sir. It starts with the stimuli, followed by the sensory receptors, next is the sensory neuron, then the central nervous system after that are the motor neurons then finally the action or response." She grinned at her teacher and all the other students laughed.
"Th-That's right." The teacher's jaw dropped. He turned to the class who roared in laughter, "That's enough! Let us continue with the discussion."
After class, the trio headed out to the playground where the other DigiDestined children were.
The twins, Hikaru "Karu" and Jirou "JR" Takaichi, are the children on Hikari "Kari" and Takeru "TK" Takaichi. They were playing on the swings. The two 10-year-olds alternated going up and down. When one was up, the other was down. It was quite entertaining watching them. Their digimon, Salamon and Tokomon, were on top of the swings watching their tamers enjoy themselves.
"Tokomon!" Called JR, "Come and swing with me!"
"Whee! I'm coming JR!" Tokomon's voice was sweet and child like.
"Can I play on the swing too, Karu?" Salamon asked innocently.
Karu smiled at his digimon, "Of course you can! Come here!"
The two Digimon sat on the laps of their respective tamers. This way, if anyone saw the two tiny Digimon, they'd think they were nothing but mere plush toys. The four giggled and laughed while swinging back and forth.
On the slide were the three six year olds. Shindou "Shin" Ishida, Akina's brother, was taking his turn down the slide. While Miki Izumi and Kazuma Ichijouji, Ken and Yolei Ichijouji's youngest child, were pushing each other aside to get the next turn down the slide. The Ichijouji family has just recently moved to Odaiba from Tamachi but that didn't stop Kazuma from making friends or picking fights.
Junichi "June" Kido, the more responsible member of the group, and Kazumi Ichijouji were frantically trying to keep the younger kids from clawing each other. All of their digimon, both of the two older boys and the three younger kids, were helping while also trying to hide from the crowd of children.
Sitting where they usually did, Naomi Hida, Ami "Amy" Ichijouji and Sachi Izumi sat at the picnic table in the middle of the sand area. Upamon, Poromon and Motimon were hiding under the picnic table munching on their tamer's food. The girls were doing what they usual did, talk about rumours they've heard around school. In other words, they were gossiping.
Akina, Arashi and Nobu sat next to the trio of gossiping girls. "What's up, girls? Anything interesting lately?" Nobu asked trying to start conversation.
"Absolutely! You know that casual teacher? Apparently, he stole all the cupcakes from the teacher's lounge." Amy, Ken and Yolei's middle child, answered Nobu.
"What? You don't actually believe that, do you?" Akina asked in disbelief.
By this time, Arashi was entertaining the group of girls who gathered around him. He and Nobu were quite popular. However, it was clear that Arashi was the more popular of the two.
Akina followed her best friend, but when she got to him the group of girls pushed her out making it impossible to reach Arashi. "He keeps smiling… Arashi, you don't have to hide your sadness…"
Nobu placed his hand over Akina's shoulder. He could read her face, "Aki, I know you're worried but there's nothing we can do. This is what he wants."
"I know… He's in so much pain and there's nothing we can do…" The little blonde girl sadly remarked.
Sachi called out to Akina from where she was seated, "Akina! Where's Yokomon?"
The young Kamiya girl turned around to answer the question that was asked. "Uhm, she should be up in the trees, probably in front of the school. She was with DemiVeemon and Koromon when I left her."
"Cool! I'll go look for them." With this, Sachi ran to the front of the school.
"Aki!" Akina and Nobu whirled around.
They saw Arashi approach them. The girls that crowded him seem to have left. He continued, "Wanna hang later? I feel like having ice cream." His grin never left his face.
"Sure. We can go to the park. Bring Koromon along as well, I'm sure DemiVeemon and Yokomon would love to play at the park. They haven't been out to play for a while." Nobu answered.
"Seems like Nobu's got everything planned already." Akina laughed and Arashi joined in.
The trio took their seats and began eating their lunch. Everyone was having fun and playing games.
RING RING
The bell rang. Lunch was over and it was time for math.
Akina sighed. "Drat, oh well. Lunch was fun while it lasted. Let's go, guys! We don't want to be late for Miss Watanabe's class, she's scarier that Piedmon when she gets mad." She and her two best friends laughed while running to their class.
INFINITY MOUNTAIN, FILE ISLAND, DIGITAL WORLD
The child with lavender eyes finally reached the top of the mountain. She was tired and exhausted from the long hike. "We're finally here, Lunamon."
"What exactly is 'here'?" Conveyed Lunamon who was equally as tired as her tamer.
"Primary Village. That man said that once we get to the digital world, we should immediately come here." The child said while analysing the area. "I wonder where Elecmon is." She continued obviously confused as to why no one was guarding the babies.
Lunamon spoke up, "He's probably out looking for food."
"Maybe." Something caught the girl's eye. "Oh look! It's a Yukimibotamon! Oh, Lunamon. I remember when you hatched a few days after your DigiEgg was given to me. You were a tiny little white ball of cuteness like this little angel." She smiled gently and Lunamon smiled back.
The serious child whom she portrayed when they first entered this world has disappeared and this more carefree girl took her place. She held the tiny baby Digimon up in the air and swung it gently from side to side.
"I haven't seen you this happy in so long. I'm glad that memories of me give you this much joy." Lunamon had been taking care of this young girl since she was at a tender age of three.
The girl started singing a lullaby and Lunamon came and stood beside her and the baby. "I'm so happy that you're my partner, Fuyuko."
The girl smiled at the sound of her name. Who is this mysterious girl? All we know about her is her name and that she is one of the chosen few, a DigiDestined.
To be continued…
