Hi, I'm Pally Mon! I'm new to making fanfics, so please give me some hints or comments. I don't own digimon, but Leonamon is mine. The little ** things are thing that I'm saying. Now, enjoy the story!
Lost Love
By: Pally Mon
One day, in the digital world, the digidestined had settled down for the night. They all had battled several monsters that day , so they were all bushed out. Mimi, however, seemed not too tired.
"I wonder if we'll ever beat that Piedmon." She thought aloud. "What do you all think?" Mimi asked. But when she turned around to see the group, all she saw was that they were all asleep. "Oh, sorry, I guess I need to be quiet. I'll find some place where I can think." Mimi pondered.
With that, Mimi got up {Being very careful, so she didn't wake Tanemon.} And headed to a nearby forest.
Matt looked up from where he and Gabumon were standing guard and said, " Whoa, I must've dosed off!" Matt looked to see if everyone was where they were supposed to be, but found that Mimi had disappeared. "Ah, Mimi! Where did you run off to?" Matt thought of waking they others, but they were all sleeping so peacefully. Mimi has been awful quiet for the past several days, Matt thought to himself.
Maybe she has something on her mind. Maybe she went off into those woods. He thought.
So, Matt went off to find Mimi.
Mimi sat down on the ground next to a gently, flowing, waterfall. " It's awful pretty back here. I should really show this place to the others. Especially Tanemon, she would absolutely adore it!" Mimi took of her hat and placed it neatly beside her. I wish I had someone who really understands me. Sora and Palmon are both great, and they do understand me, but not really!" "Who am I kidding, I don't even understand myself! Everyone thinks I'm the spoiled, dumb kid on the team, but I only act like that because I'm lonely!"
Mimi laid down on her back, and looked up at the stars. " Wow, they're so many of them! And they're also very pretty!" I think I'll just stay here for the night.
Matt wondered through the forest, calling, "Mimi! Mimi! Where are you?!" But he had no luck.
All of a sudden, he came upon a beautiful waterfall , and saw something laying near the water looking at the sky. Could it be? Thought Matt. Matt saw a beautiful figure with hazel eyes staring at the sky intently.
The figure seemed depressed over something.
Mimi heard something come up behind her. Startled, she jumped up and saw Matt, right behind her.
"Matt! What are you doing here?" Mimi asked. Matt felt his face flush with heat. " Well, I saw that you had left the camp, and I got worried , so I came to look for you." "You were worried?" Mimi asked.
"Well, since I'm on duty tonight, it was my job to make sure everyone is safe." Said Matt.
" Oh , yeah." Drat! Mimi thought. Matt sat down by Mimi. "Now, tell me what's the matter."
"Well," Mimi started off, "I really don't know, maybe I'm just worrying too much. I know that I'm worried that we won't be able to beat Piedmon, and that we all will get hurt. It's not the same Digi-world we started off with Matt, we could seriously be hurt!"
Mimi's crest began to glow a bright green, as did Matt's.
"Mimi, we don't have the same digimon we started out with either. Instead of them digivolving once, they're digivolving 3 times! Like yesterday, Lillymon digivolved to Rosemon! You cared so much for T.K and Kari that you risked your life to save them! I forgot to thank you for saving T.K. I don't know what I'd do without him!" Matt said. " But look at your crest! You're only thinking about the safety of our friends!"
Mimi looked down at her crest. He was right! She was only thinking about her friends! That reminded her of what had happened yesterday.
Flashback
Tai and co. were walking through a forest when all of a sudden, " RROOOOAAARRRR!!!!!!"
"Oh no! It Leonamon!" Tentomon exclaimed. "Leonamon , who's that?" Joe asked. " Let me look in my pc, Joe.." answered Izzy.
Leonamon: Leomon's sister. She is usually very kind, but something's made her go crazy!" Izzy said.
"RRROOAAARRR! You digidestined must be destroyed! I must obey MetalSeadramon's orders!
PSYCHIC BLAST!! HA!"
" Everyone , split up! NOW!" Yelled Tai. The digidestined barely missed the attack.
Sora, Tai, Agumon, and Biyomon , ran to the north. Joe, Matt, Izzy, Tentomon, Gabumon, and Gomamon ranto the East, while Mimi, Kari, T.K, Palmon, Gatomon, and Patamon ran to the West.
"Leonamon , follow the children that have the Gotamon and Patamon. They are weak." Metalseadramon
ordered. " Yes, master." Leonamon answered. And off she went.
Tai and Sora ran about half a mile before they stopped and realized they weren't being followed.
" Oh, Tai, we have to go back!" Sora exclaimed. " No, Sora, we'll only get in the way." Tai answered.
" Sora, will the others be okay?" Biyomon asked. Sora looked down to her faithful Digimon and said,
" Boy, I sure hope so Bi."
Joe, Izzy, Matt, Gomamon, Gabumon, and Tentomon were running until they were far enough from the scene. " I guess were not being followed anymore." Joe said. "T.K, are you okay? T.K? T.K?!" Matt looked around in horror as he noticed that his baby brother was off, alone , somewhere. " I'm going to look for T.K." Matt exclaimed. " NO, Matt. If you go out there, you'll be in danger." Izzy explained. "But.. T.K……" "Matt, don't worry . He's not alone. Just as we started running , I saw Mimi leave Tai and Sora and go with T.K and Kari. Mimi knew you would be worried, so I guess, she went to protect them." Gabumon said. After hearing this, Matt calmed down. " I guess you're right , Gabumon. Mimi has the crest of Sincerity, she cares for both of them, so I know she'll keep them safe." Matt couldn't believe he was saying this. Mimi, the bold and corageous one? What am I saying?! Do I like Mimi or something?! Why am I making a big deal out of this?! Matt just shrugged it off and looked off to the way the others had run.
" I can't run anymore, Kari!" Said T.K. "Neither can I." Said Kari. They both stopped and gasped for air.
"T.K! Kari! Get up! We can't stop! Leonamon right behind us!" Patamon Cried. " Look, here comes Mimi!" Gatomon exclaimed. Mimi came up behind T.K and Kari and swooped down and picked both of them up, and kept On running. Patamon and Gatomon stood there , stunned at what had just happened, while Palmon came and said, " Well, come on! Don't just stand here! Let's go!" " Right!" Said Patamon and Gatomon.
T.K and Kari looked up at Mimi, who was consentrating on running forward. " Mimi, you .. saved us! Thank you!" Said T.K. Mimi looked down at T.K and said, You're welcome, but we're not out of the woods yet! Mimi mumbled. T.K thought, boy! Mimi's changed! I didn't even know she was athletic! Kari looked at the ground. Mimi was a FAST runner. Palmon, Patamon, and Gatomon were about two miles back, running with all their might. Mimi suddenly stopped, and looked around for a good hiding spot.
Mimi found a small hole in a tree that would hold about 5 people about T. K's height. "Perfect! All 5 of them can fit in here!" Mimi went back to where she left T.K and Kari, and she swooped them up once again, and placed them in the tree. It was such a good hiding place Mimi almost couldn't find it herself.
Now, you two stay here. Okay? " Mimi told them. " Okay." They both replied. Just as Mimi turned to leave, Kari added, " Thanks again for saving us. We wouldn't have made it if it wasn't for you."
Mimi gave them both a hug. "I couldn't let anything happen to you, I care for you too much! Besides, what would your brothers say? Now, I'll be right back." Mimi said.
Mimi walked back out into the open where the digimon where and told them that they were safely hidden. " Thank you Mimi! You're a lifesaver!" Said Gatomon. " No, I was just doing the right thing."
" I'm very proud of you M…..AHHHHH!" Palmon yelled. The group turned to see Leonamon, staring them down. So, you are the holder of the Sincerity crest? I guess I should get rid of you too. Leonamon started to grab for Mimi when her crest glowed a bright green,. " I won't let you hurt anyone!" Mimi yelled. " Don't worry, Mimi. I'll teach this punk the true meaning of Sincerity!" Palmon said.
PALMON WARP –DIGIVOLVE TO….
TOGEMON….
LILLYMON…
ROSEMON!!!
Rosemon was a beautiful, shapely woman that wore a red suit that exposed some of her stomach. She had long black boots that came up to her thighs, which had red on the top. The lilly that was on her head was replaced with a beautiful rose . Her long , green hair had become wavy strands of blonde. And her wings were replaced with a long black cape. On her arms were long, black, gloves that had a streak of red on them.
" I don't think so pal!" Rosemon cried. SOLAR SUN SHOCK!
Rosemon raised her hands to the air, as they glowed with sunlight. Rosemon then thrusted her arms in front of her and hit Loenamon with a nasty blow. Leonamon growled with pain, as she went sailing though the air.
All the digdestined and their digimon looked up to the sky, and saw Leonamon burnt to a crisp, flying through the air. "Hey let's follow that beam! I bet it came from Mimi and Palmon!" Tai yelled. "Right!" Answered Sora. And off Tai, Sora, Agumon, and Biyomon went to find Mimi.
Matt and co. were sitting on the ground, when they saw Leonamon fly through the air. Matt stood up and yelled, "LOOK EVERYBODY! LET'S GO FIND MIMI!" All the others looked up and trailed after Matt, who was running a mile a minute.
"Wow, Rosemon, you were great! I'm really proud of you!" Rosemon looked down at Mimi, and said, "Don't thank me, Mimi. You had so much love for us, that I had to digivolve. " " Oh, that reminds me!" Mimi got up and ran to the tree where T.K and Kari were. As soon as she opened the hole, both T.K and Kari jumped on her and gave her a big hug. "Thanks Mimi! You're the big sister I never had!" Said Kari. "Yeah, me too!" Said T.K.
At that same moment, Tai , Sora , Biyomon, and Agumon came to up To Mimi and co.
"MIMI! YOU'RE A HERO! Sora yelled. Tai and Sora joined in the big hug. After they all broke away,
Matt, Joe, and Izzy plowed Mimi down and complemented her bravery. After the excitement was over, they had a ton of questions for her.
" I have one question, HOW did you do it?" Tai asked. Mimi shrugged, "It's a long story!" All the digimon looked up at Rosemon and talked to her.
Matt went to his little brother and asked him, " Are you okay?" " Matt, I'm fine. Mimi made sure we were safe by putting us in a little spot in a tree that she had found." T.K explained. "Wow, what a woman." Said Matt. " What did you say Matt? I couldn't hear you." Asked T.K. Matt blushed and said, "Uhhhh…nothing!"
"Wow, Palmon, you digivolved." Said Gomamon. "Yeah, I like it! What?!" Rosemon began to glow.
Rosemon began to shrink. Mimi saw this and ran over to pick up Rosemon, who was now, Tanemon.
" Are you okay, Tanemon?" Mimi asked. " Yes, I'm just a little tired." Tanemon answered. " Well, you just rest in my arms okay?" Mimi said lovingly. " Okay." Said Tanemon. What a day! Mimi thought to herself.
End Flashback
Matt looked at Mimi, who was lost in her thoughts. " You know, I never thanked you for saving T.K" Matt said. Mimi looked at Matt. " You don't have to thank me, Matt" Mimi answered. "NO Mimi, I do." Now or never , Matt. He said to himself. Matt scooted closer to Mimi and cupped her chin with his hand, and gave her a long kiss. Mimi couldn't believe it. Matt liked her! She was so glad, because she had a crush on him from the start.
As they broke away, they were both out of breath. " Mimi…" Matt said. " I love you. You're sweet, beautiful, loving, caring, and I've loved you ever since I first saw you." "Oh, Matt, I love you too! I always have! You're handsome, talented, brave, and a good leader." Mimi said. " Really?!" Matt asked, Mimi nodded her head and came close to Matt and kissed him. Mimi put her arms around Matt's neck, while Matt put his arms around Mimi and held her tight. Never wanting to let her go.
So this is what love is like! Matt thought. Matt felt his heart speed up, and he found his hands going up and down Mimi's body. She didn't seem to mind though. Matt and Mimi looked at each other and blushed a bright red. " Matt, look at your crest!" Said Mimi. Matt looked at HIS crest. It was glowing a bright blue, While Mimi's was glowing a bright green! Boy, thought Matt. NOTHING can ruin this moment! AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
* * * * * * * * *
"Huh? Mimi? Where did you go?" Tanemon asked. Tanemon got up frantically and looked around the camp for Mimi… Then she realized that Mimi wasn't the only one missing. "Hey, Matt's gone too!" Tanemon cried. Tanemon saw Gabumon sleeping where Matt had once been. "Gabumon, Gabumon, wake up! Matt and Mimi are missing!" Gabumon slowly got up and looked Tanemon in the eye. " But Tanemon , Matt's right …..Matt! Oh my gosh , Matt!" Gabumon quickly got worried, and started to wake the others. "Gabumon, NO! Don't wake them!" Tanemon yelled. "Why not?" Asked Gabumon. " Well, Matt and Mimi are our humans, right?" "Right. So?" "So, we should be the ones to find them! Besides, it's really late!" Tanemon explained. "You're right! Let's go find them!" Gabumon said.
"MIMI! WHERE ARE YOU!?" Tanemon called. "MATT? MATT CAN YOU HEAR ME!?" Gabumon yelled. Suddenly they heard a loud scream off in the distance. "MATT! THAT WAS MATT'S VOICE!" Gabumon explained. "AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" "MIMI!"
"HAHAHAHAHA!!!! I've got you now digidestined!" Piedmon yelled. " Not if I can help it!" Said Matt standing protectively in front of Mimi. Matt grabbed Mimi by the hand and started running. But, he wasn't fast enough. Piedmon had grabbed Mimi and was trying to take her crest. Mimi screamed in pain, as Piedmon squeezed the life out of her. "MIMI!" Matt yelled. I've got to help her but how? He thought….
GABUMON WARP-DIGIVOLVE TO…..
METALGARURUMON!!
TANEMON DIGIVOLVE TO
PALMON!
PALMON WARP-DIGIVOLVE TO….
ROSEMON!!
"Hey you! Stay away from them!" Rosemon yelled. "Well, well, well, if it isn't little Tanemon and Little Tsunomon. My, you two have grown soooo much! But you are still too weak to defeat me!" Piedmon yelled. " Well, we'll see about that! ICE WOLF CLAW!" Metalgarurumon yelled. Piedmon snickered and stuck Mimi right out in the path of the beam. "*gasp* MIMI! LOOK OUT!" Rosemon yelled. Rosemon ran up to Piedmon and snatched Mimi before she was hit with the beam. "NO!" Piedmon yelled. Piedmon fell to his knees, and held his stomach in pain.
Foolish wolf , do you honestly think that could EVEN hurt me?! HA! SWORD SLASH!" Piedmon yelled.* I don't know, I forgot Piedmon's attack! Sorry! * Rosemon set Mimi down on the ground, and got back up to help Metalgarurumon. But on her way, she told Matt. "Matt, try to help Mimi out… She looks terrible! Oh, I wish the others were here. Go back to camp and wake the others. Tell them to come here and fight! I want YOU to stay with Mimi at the camp until she get better. Okay?" Rosemon asked
"Okay, but why me?" asked Matt. " Well, as you know, Mimi really seems to like you!" Rosemon said with a wink. "Now GO!" Rosemon ran back to Metalgarurmon to help him fight.
Matt picked up Mimi and started to run. He felt Mimi stir in his arms. He stopped behind a tree and looked at Mimi. "Geez, she looks terrible! I think her insides were crushed. Man, I wish I would have done something. But it all happened so quick." Matt felt himself start to cry when all of a sudden. "M..Matt?"
Mimi called. Matt looked down at Mimi who looked as if she were in a lot of pain. " MIMI! Are you okay? How do you feel?" Mimi winced in pain as she said. " I..I'm fine… really…" " No, you're not! I've gotta get you back to the camp. Hold on Mimi." Said Matt.
"SOLAR SUN SHOCK!" Rosemon called out. Piedmon quickly moved out of the way, before he was hit. "Is that the best you can do, my pretty? HA! SWORD SLASH!" Piedmon yelled. The attack hit Rosemon and sent her flying to the ground. " Owwwww…" Ivymon said. "Are you alright Rosemon?" Metalgarurumon asked. " Yes, I'm fine…thanks" Rosemon answered as Metalgarurumon helped her up. Rosemon slightly blushed. She had a crush on Weregarurumon sometime ago.. as Lillymon. Metalgarurumon slightly blushed too. He thought Lillymon and Rosemon were total babes. * Yes there is some digi love in here and more of my stories. Exp: angemon and angewomon.. Nuttin' mushy! * "Where are those two?" Rosemon asked. Metalgarurmon shrugged. They both got up and continued to fight Piedmon.
Matt ran into camp yelling , " EVERYONE GET UP NOW!! PIEDMON'S ATTACKING !!! AND MIMI'S HURT!!!" Tai and co. looked up. 'Geez Matt, Could be louder? OH MY GOSH MIMI! Start explaining Matt! Tai yelled. Matt looked right at Tai and said, " She ran off in the woods for a while, and I went to find her. When I found her we just talked for a while and then Piedmon showed up. Tanemon and Gabumon showed up and digivolved to their mega forms to save us. Piedmon grabbed Mimi and was going to continue to hurt her until she gave up her crest, but Rosemon freed her. Rosemon told me to come back to get reinforcements and to take care of Mimi. Said Matt. "Oh, sorry man." Said Tai. "Matt, let me see Mimi real quick." Joe said. Matt looked at Joe with confusion. "Matt, my dad's a doctor. I can usually tell what is wrong with a patient." Joe explained. "OH! Sorry, here." Matt laid Mimi in front of Joe. Joe looked over Mimi like checking her pulse, feeling for a temp, etc.. "Hmmmm…" Said Joe. "What do you mean hmmm Joe? Will she be okay?" Kari asked. Joe said nothing. "Joe?" Sora asked. Joe looked at everyone and said, " I don't think she's gonna make it. Her internal organs are too badly damaged and she is unconscious.
I'm sorry everyone. She's slowly fading." "J-Joe?" Matt asked. "Yes?" asked Joe solemnly. "How l-long d-does she h-have?" Matt was on the verge of tears. He didn't care if everyone saw Mr. Cool crying. The one he loves is going to die. Matt awaited the answer from Joe. "I-I don't know, Matt. I d-don't know.." Joe had tears in his eyes. Mimi was always so kind and as Gomamon says , "charming." You could say that Joe had a little crush on her, but thought Mimi should be with Matt. *By George, I agree! ^^ *
"Sniff..sniff.. I'm gonna miss her soo much. She's the big sister I never had." Cried T.K. "M-me too T.K!" Said Kari. "I'm gonna miss her too!" Cried Agumon. " Me too! She was a little ditsy, but she had a good heart!" Patamon said. "Yeah.." Replied Tentomon who was already crying.
Tai looked at Mimi. She can't die! She can't! She's one of us! He thought. "Everyone! Mimi isn't dead yet! You're acting like she is! Don't give up hope! I know I won't let her die! There has to be a way!" Yelled Tai. Matt stood up and looked at Tai. He always wondered how Tai could handle situations. HE sometimes wished he had the crest of courage. You're right! We can't give up hope! Mimi will live! And I'll make sure of it!" Said Matt. "In the mean time, didn't you say that Rosemon and MetalGarurmon needed help?" Asked Izzy. "Oh yeah, that's right!" Answered Matt. "I'll stay here to watch over Mimi." Said Matt. "Matt. Don't you DARE let her die. Or you'll be in BIG trouble!" Said Tai. "Don't worry, Tai, it's in the bag." Matt said trying to smile. Matt watched all of the others dash off to fight Piedmon.
"M-Matt?" Mimi asked. Matt fell to Mimi's side instantly. "Mimi…" Matt said with his eyes starting to water. "M-Matt…Am..I going….to d-die?" Mimi asked. "NO! You're not going to d-die.." Matt choked out. Mimi looked deep into Matt's eyes. "Matt, I know you're lying." Mimi said calmly. Matt looked at Mimi. "Mimi, you can't leave me! I love y-you too much!" "Goodbye, Matt… I love you too…"Mimi closed her eyes . "Mimi? MIMI! NOOOOOOO! Mimi! You can't leave me!" Matt held Mimi in his arms crying. Matt's crest started to glow. A single teardrop fell from Matt's cheek and landed on Mimi's crest. Mimi's crest began to glow a bright green. Matt's crest shot out and covered Mimi along with her own crest. Mimi's insides were being patched up and she was returning to normal. The crests then returned to their tags. Mimi opened her big hazel eyes and smiled at Matt. "Hey…" She said. Matt could only sit and stare at what just happened. "Mimi! You're alright!" He yelled, as he hugged her. "Woah! Matt! I'll be fine." Said Mimi. Matt helped Mimi to her feet. "Now, let's go help the others!"
Metalgarurmon got up off the ground. "Man, I wish the others would hurry up!" Metalgarurmon looked up to see Rosemon trying to keep Piedmon off her. "Rosemon, my darling, we could rule the digiworld together side by side." Piedmon said. "In you're dreams, jerk! SOLAR SUN SHOCK! " Rosemon said, trying to free herself from Piedmon's grip. "Ha, Ha, missed me, missed me. Now you gotta kiss me!" Piedmon remarked. Metalgarurmon sneered. "NO ONE DOES THAT TO A LADY!" Metalgarurmon tackled Piedmon to the ground. "Oooohh… puppy wanna play?" Piedmon snickered.
SOLAR SUN SHOCK!!!
"What the…AAAHHHH!!!!! Piedmon screamed as a beam of light crashed into his stomach. "It's about time you all got here!" Yelled Rosemon. "Sorry we're late!" Cried Sora. "Now, help us finish off this goon!" Cried Metalgarurmon. Tai snickered. "With…pleasure.. Go guys show 'em what we're made of!" "Right!" Yelled agumon.

"Now everyone, all together!" Yelled Tai. "Tai, NO! We aren't all together yet…"Joe said.
"Yes we are!" Cried Mimi. "MIMI! You're alright!" Cried Sora. "Yes, I'm quite fine." Said Mimi as she looked into Matt's eyes. Sora looked at the two closer. They were holding hands! She was glad for both of them. Tai looked at Sora who was smiling softly. "What….Oh….Oh boy…"Said Tai.
"Now, let's finish him off!" Cried Kari. "Now everyone, throw your attacks at the same time! Said Izzy. "You got it!" Said Wargreymon.

"YEAH!!! WE BEAT HIM WE BEAT HIM!!!" Cried T.K as he and Kari danced around in circles. "alright!" Cried Joe. "We beat 'em Sora….we…we…" Tai was suddenly cut off by Sora leaping into Tai's arms. "OH Tai!!! I'm so happy!" Tai looked over at Matt, who had Mimi in his arms. Matt gave him a nodd. Tai took a deep breath. "Sora?….I have to tell you something.." Sora looked at Tai with her beautiful eyes. "Yes?" "Sora I….kindasortamaybeloveyou.Thisseemslikeagoodtimetotellyouso…." Sora just looked at Tai and giggled. "Oh, Tai, I love you too!" Tai met his lips to Sora's as he kissed her for the first time.
- Awww *
"Mimi, I love you so much." Whispered Matt. "I love you too, Matt." Matt pulled Mimi ever so close to him not ever wanting to let her go. Mimi drew closer to Matt and gave him a long kiss on the lips.
"Hey, what's with everybody?" Asked Salamon. * The digimon have been reduced to their rookie forms or whatever. * " I don't know, but let's not get involved." Said Yokomon. "Uh, guys, I hate to break up this Kodac moment but look!" Said Izzy. "Huh? What's happening to the sky?" Cried Sora.
"It's getting darker.." Said Joe. "But I thought we finished him off!" Said Kari. "I guess it's only just begun……." Said Matt.
