Disclaimer: I do not own anything involved in this fanfiction such as Digimon and other references. So please do not sue me 'because I have any money.

Author's notes: This is my first fanfiction of Digimon so no flames please. Also this story has nothing to do with Digimon except the characters and that's it. No Digimon, no Digiworld, however there is an alternate universes, alternate personalities, and own characters. Now that that's stated we can get on to the story.

The Beginning

Kristina Deecus, a straight A student, is currently talking to her friend Alicia Neerg. Kristina is a 16 year old sophomore with long brown hair and green eyes covered in glasses. Currently her hair was pulled back to keep her hair out of her eyes.

"I'm so bored Alicia," she said over the phone, "what do you want to do today?"

"I don't know want to watch Hope Rising?" she asked.

"Sure what time?"

"Is 3 alright?"

"Sure see you then!" she said.

"Bye"

"Bye," she said then hung up. Awsome this is going to be awesome. No school for a month and a day full of soap operas. How could this break get any better? She thought to herself as she got dressed and looked at the clock. Let me see its 2:30 so I can leave now get something to eat on the way and get to Alicia's house on time.

"Bye Mom." She said as she walked out the door. She got a burger meal from McDonalds and walked to Alicia's house. 3:00 sharp cool. She thought as she walked up to the house and rang the doorbell.

"Kristina you're just on time Alicia is getting set up in the basement." Mrs. Neerg said.

"Ok thank you." Kristina said as she walked down the hall that leads to the basement. The Neerg house is very homey with family photos everywhere and the smell of Mrs. Neerg's fresh baked pies and other goodies.

"So Alicia are you ready to watch five hours of our favorite soap?" Kristina said as she walked into the basement.

"Almost just need to get the popcorn." said the 17 year old. Alicia looked up with hazel eyes through glasses. Her dark brown hair was tied back in a ponytail.

"Let's get the drama started." Kristina exclaimed. Five hours, a couple bags of popcorn, and a six pack of soda later and they were done.

"Well it's getting late I got to go." Kristina said looking at her watch.

"Talk to you tomorrow. Bye."

"Bye" she said and then walked home.

"So how was your day." Her mom asked as she walked into her house.

"Fine." She said.

"You're just in time for dinner." Her mom said. After she was done eating she took a shower and went to bed. The next day she got up, got dressed, and went down to breakfast.

"Honey you got a letter in the mail." Her mom said as she walked into the kitchen and handed her the letter. She took it, opened it up, and read it.

Dear Kristina Deecus:
