The Light One's Fate

By Angel of the Hazard

Unknown to everyone in the city below, a race for survival was occurring in the border between the digital world and the plane of existence of which they were familiar.

A tiny white creature frantically ran as fast as it could to escape another much larger, stronger animal, who was just as anxious to catch the small digital being for reasons only they knew. Right before the larger being was able to reach the little one, it was interrupted by a third. The two bigger entities started to fight against each other, enabling the other to escape. Just then, a portal opened up and the exhausted little one fell through, unconscious.

Takato Matsuki was walking by the schoolyard with his digimon partner, Guilmon, when everything seemed to mute around him. The next second there was an extremely loud boom, he looked up, and there was a strange geyser like fountain in the sky.

Then he noticed something else; a small object started falling rapidly from the geyser. Guilmon said it out loud, "Takato, I smell a digimon coming."

'That must be the digimon! But... something's not right here.'

He jumped over the fence and ran over to the spot where the minute digimon had fallen, Guilmon close behind.

What he found surprised them both, the digimon was tiny and it was all white and had purple on its tiny feet and not so small ears. It also had a strange symbol on its forehead: an upside-down red triangle and three smaller black triangles on each of its sides.

"I wonder who this little guy is? He can't be any more than a rookie, in fact-" Just then he noticed the little digimon had opened his big emerald eyes.

"Hi.." The digimon seemed barely able to speak, but it needed to say something that was seemed to be important, so with the last of his strength, it started talking anxiously.

"You must help me.*cough*. my name is Calumon. I bear something very precious that must not be lost. *groan*

Takato looked over at Guilmon, who looked just as confused as he did.

"What is it Calumon, can I do anything to help you? You don't look very good. What is this important thing you carry?" For some reason, Takato knew that he could trust this little digimon, and would do anything possible to help the tiny guy.

"Never mind that, you'll know what I'm talking about soon enough. But. there is one thing that you can do Takato."

"How did you..."

"There is no time to explain, just... give me your hand. I will tell you this.I am no longer strong enough to survive and will die soon, and a catastrophe will occur should I be deleted with this precious gift within me."

Giving the young digital being the benefit of his doubt, Takato decided to agree. "Okay. I will carry this 'gift' for you, for as long as I'm alive, I promise."

As he grasped Calumon's paw, he felt an intense shocking sensation travel through his hand, and it spread all through his body, getting stronger as it went. Without warning, everything turned dark.

"Thank you Takato, I will see you again, in the near future. Goodbye."

The digimon known as Calumon was no more, (a/n: not really, but that's for later) as his data flew, sparkling, into the air around Tamer and digimon and disappeared.

Downtown in an apartment building a few miles from the school, a young dark-haired boy wearing an orange vest sat at his computer, playing the latest video game, his terriermon watching from the bed beside him.

He felt a sudden urge to look out his window, and as he walked over to it, Terriermon and he saw a flash of light and a huge rumble shook everything around, causing some objects to tumble to the floor.

"What was that?!"

"I don't know Henry, you think we should check it out?"

"For once, that sounds like a good idea Terriermon, let's go!"

On the other side of the city, a young girl with a very cold expression on her face leaned against the wall of an apartment listening to her c.d. player, her digimon hidden in the shadows nearby.

"Humph, that was quick, it was probably a weak digimon anyway."

Close by, her partner Renamon didn't look too sure. "I don't know Rika, I have the feeling something important just happened."

"Whatever. It's not a problem for us to worry about anymore."

".. Of course. Whatever you say."

There you have it. The first chapter of my first story is done. Just to let everyone know, as said above, the cream puff loving Calumon has not gone, he has just found a new "residence". (Hint, hint) If you don't know what I mean, there is another story here that has the concept but a different situation; it's called "The Catalyst of Light" by Firehedgehog, who, by the way, I have permission from to use her idea.

"Now you get to meet my Digimon partner, say hello buddy!"

"Hi!"

A gold colored Guilmon with dark blue markings and hazard symbol enters the room with a dozen plates of assorted peanut butter dishes.

"GoldGuilmon! What did I tell you about eating those!".

"But AH. They're so good."

"Ah, never mind, just don't eat so much next time. You'll make me go broke!"

".Alright."

GoldGuilmon is my creation, if you want to use him, please email me for permission at hazardangel@hotmail.com

'Til next time. Later!
