Chapter 3 - Chosen
-Li's story-
WHAP!
That's the sound that the bokken made when they collided against each other. I was practicing an ancient kenjutsu sword fighting style. My grandpa taught me. He was into a lot of stuff like ancient history passed down along our generations, I bet not even half of his stories are true. I'm not saying that I think ALL of the stuff he says is bogus. Just some⦠Like the story he told about my great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandfather was the one who had slain the mighty dragon "Seiryu". But, like I said, not everything is fake. We were now finished my kenjutsu practice, Now I had study time, where I'm supposed to study about ancient Chinese history. Our main topic right now is the mythical Azure Dragon "Seiryu". And then after that I would get to hear some of grandpa's wacky tales. That's just what happens when you're from a Chinese family who has many generations of famous people.
What to do, what to do. I'd finished all of my classes and lessons with grandpa, so now what could I do? I usually just wandered around or practiced my kenjutsu, I liked kenjutsu, and who knows, maybe someday it will help me in life. But, today I felt like doing something else, something exciting or fun. I wished I had a TV or a video game console. Alas, I'm not aloud to have anything of the sort. Electronics are banned in my house. I decided to just go to my room. I could think in there, that's about it though. So, I walked through the hallway to my room. I opened the door and noticed something lying on the floor. It was fairly obvious that it was there because it was white, and my floors were dark brown. I kneeled down to pick it up. It looked like a DS. I'd only seen one DS ever, and it was black. It had been my friends, but he gave it away. I didn't get to see anybody very often though. I unfolded the two parts and flipped the switch so It turned on. I shouldn't be doing this, if my parents or my grandpa walked in, it would mean trouble. The DS turned on, the screen showed a chat room sort of thing. Words popped up across the screen, "NOW TRANSPORTING DIGIMON."
"Huh?" I mumbled out loud.
Suddenly, a blue light shot out of the screen. It was blinding, I covered my eyes as I was shot back at my wall. After a few seconds, the light show was over. I glanced around the room, nothing different. Nothing torn apart or wrecked. Just one thing, the DS had turned into a blue colour. The DS was white before wasn't it? And why was it even in my room? Had my parents given it to me as a surprise? I bet that wasn't it. Then why was it here? Wait? What was that? I saw something quickly soar through the air. It looked blue-ish. It shot at me with incredible speed, it looked like it had wings!? It landed right beside me. I stared at the strange creature, it was small, maybe about 1-2 feet tall, it had scaly skin that shined like a rainbow, but the main colour was blue. It opened it's mouth, as if it was going to speak, it had many sharp teeth, that looked like they could bite my arm off. Words came out of it's mouth,
"Hello, chosen one." It said.
My mouth hung open in disbelief, had it really just spoken to me? Was this a weird dream? Who knows, all I knew was that my life was about to get a bit more interesting.
