                                                Part 1:Meet Red Felinemon

  "Mark…I'm coming for you," said a strange digimon as he rushed down the digital pathway to the real world.

   "Hi, Mrs. Tachikawa!" greeted 16-year old Mark Frangro as he walked to the bakery counter and gave his order for a large cake.

    "Oh Mark, you don't have to call me that. I'm a close friend of your dad and mom, so just me call me Mimi," smiled Mrs. Tachikawa as she and her digimon, Palmon handed the cake box to Mark and his father's digimon, Felinemon. After paying and taking the cake box, Mark let out a sigh and Gatomon, his mother's digimon, asked why.

    The three walked down the street as Mark said, "It's just the reunion today, I mean I love seeing family members, like uncle Tai and aunt Karen, but some of my cousins, well…"

    "I understand. You don't have a digimon of your very own yet, and you're the oldest kid in the family. I think they tease you because you're a better writer and swimmer than they are," replied Felinemon, deciding to carry the cake himself to make Mark feel better. Just then, Mark saw a strange pillar of red light coming out of the sky.

     Mark looked at the digimon and said, "Tell my parents I'll be back in a while," and with that, he ran off for the light.

     "What do we tell Tom and Kari? They won't believe their son ran off to see the source of a red light!" yelled the confused Gatomon at Felinemon.

      "Let's just tell them Mark met one of his friends and will be back after playing games at the arcade," replied Felinemon as Gatomon helped him carry the cake box to their home.

       What Mark saw was amazing, for the bottom of the light pillar was a strange four-legged, winged figure, and Tom asked to himself, "What is that?" Suddenly, a strange light blasted out of the pillar and landed in his hands, forming a digivise that looked different from his dad's or mom's. "This is a digivise?" asked Mark as he studied the strange design.

       "And you're my partner now!" yelled the figure as he jumped out and tackled Mark to the ground, happily. He looked a little like Felinemon, but his fur was red, with some black stripes, and unlike Felinemon, he couldn't stand on his hind legs, due to he was a little bigger than Mark.

"I'm Red Felinemon!" introduced the red-cat rookie digimon.
