Chapter One
The Ninth Digidestined
"Gennai said she would appear," Tai said sadly as he laid in his bed holding a phone to his ear, "We just found the Eighth Digidestined. My little sister and her Digimon Gatomon turned out to be who we were searching for. Now, we know who the Ninth Digidestined is who just revealed herself. We don't have too much work in finding her. I don't like this one bit though. She has everything we have and more. She owns a Digivice, a Crest, and THREE Digimon. She's in control of a DarkAngewomon, a strange Digimon named Beelzemon, and Myotismon. Yeah, DarkAngewomon's an Angewomon wearing black and turquoise with a turquoise visor. She did what? No way, that's not possible. Sorry, gotta go. I'll try to call you later." Tai jumped out of his bed and ran to the Living Room. Something caught his eye on the balcony. Tai quickly ran out to the balcony. He started looking around. Something moved in the shadows.
"Well, well," a female voice said from the shadows, "isn't it the leader, Tai Kamiya." Tai quickly turned toward the shadows. A black Gatomon with turquoise markings, instead of purple, on her revealed herself. Her icy blue eyes glimmered as she grinned. A pure white fang showed through her grin.
"Who are you," Tai questioned as Agumon ran out next to him. The black and turquoise Gatomon looked to her side as a purple Digimon with a white face, long floppy like ears, a red bandana around his neck, an evil smiley face on his chest, red gloves, and green eyes landed next to her. Both Digimon grinned at Tai.
"I'm Shadowmon," the black Gatomon said with a twitch of her tail which made the silver ring on her tail glimmer, "the De-Digivolved form of DarkAngewomon and my friend is Impmon, the Rookie form of Beelzemon. We have a message from our master." Tai gripped his fist as Agumon got in a fighting stance. Shadowmon and Impmon looked at each other and then back at Tai and Agumon.
"How about if I give him the message directly," a young female voice said from over the balcony. Tai and Agumon looked to their right as Myotismon appeared with a girl, a year younger then Tai, on his shoulder. The girl's dirty blonde hair shifted over her black headband and goggles as she slid off Myotismon's shoulder. Tai noticed a Digivice hooked on her black belt as her black and turquoise tank top came up slightly. She landed on one knee.
"You're the Ninth Digidestined," Tai questioned with a shocked voice. The girl stood up and dusted off her black cargo pants and black and turquoise sneakers. She then looked at Tai. Her left green eye and right blue eye was remind Tai of something.
"You remember me, Mika Aurora, right Tai," the girl said as she brushed her hair out of her face, "Well, I have to say I'm not one of you. I'm not a Digidestined. I'm a Digital Master." Tai and Agumon looked at Mika's Crest it had a black eye shape in the middle and all the colors of the other Crests around it. Tai shook his head and made a fist.
"You're not a Digital Master Mika," Tai yelled as he stared at Mika, "You're a special Digidestined. Your three Digimon are your partners. They only listen to you because they're your friends." Mika looked highly upset. She crossed her arms and started tapping her foot.
"I personally don't think you have the right to say that Tai," Mika said as she pointed at Tai, "and I hope you know that you better start protecting the Eighth Digidestined. Whoever it is is going to be in major trouble with me. After they're gone, I'll deal with the rest of you." Mika backed up slightly as Myotismon picked her up. Myotismon looked a little upset as he jumped off the railing of the balcony. Tai and Agumon looked back at Shadowmon and Impmon.
"You two can leave now," Tai said with a slightly saddened voice as he gripped both of his fists. Shadowmon and Impmon looked sad as they jumped onto the railing. They both sadly looked back at Tai as they jumped upward toward the roof. Tai was shocked by the Digimon sudden change in attitude.
A couple days later, Mika was sitting on Myotismon's shoulder as he floated in the sky. DarkAngewomon and Beelzemon Blast Mode were floating beside him. All four were on lookout for the Eighth Digidestined. They now knew her identity and who her Digimon was.
"We should try to find Kari and Gatomon," Mika said with a yawn, "instead of just sitting here doing nothing." Myotismon looked over at her. She smiled nervously. Myotismon still had the ability to read minds which he picked up from his Champion form, Wizardmon.
"What's wrong Myotismon," DarkAngewomon asked as she floated a little bit behind him. Myotismon shook his head. Beelzemon BM looked over at DarkAngewomon. DarkAngewomon shrugged her shoulders.
"That's a good idea Mika," Myotismon said as he started to float away from the other two Digimon, "Checking the Kamiya household for Tai's little sister is just brilliant." Myotismon grinned slightly. DarkAngewomon and Beelzemon BM looked at each other and quickly caught up with Myotismon.
"Now, now Myotismon," Mika said as she hugged Myotismon's neck, "I never said that. I would wait until she leaves the house. Please Myotismon! We don't have to go there now. Oh Myotismon, don't! Not now!" DarkAngewomon and Beelzemon BM grinned at each other and fluttered up to Myotismon. DarkAngewomon De-Digivolved back into Shadowmon and landed on Myotismon's other shoulder. Beelzemon BM De-Digivolved back into Impmon and landed on Myotismon's head.
"Maybe we should pay the Eighth Digidestined a visit at home," Impmon said with a yawn. Mika shook her head. Shadowmon grinned and let out a slight purr.
"What's wrong Mika," Shadowmon said as she purred, "May you, no do you, have a crush on Tai? Is that why you don't want to go back to the Kamiya household? Is our partner in love?" Mika gasped and turned bright red. Shadowmon started turning the ring on her tail around as Mika continued to blush.
"No," Mika said while trying to hide her blush, "Why would I have a crush on him? He maybe a little cute, but he's our enemy." Shadowmon looked up at Impmon. Impmon had a grin stretched across his face. Shadowmon looked over at Mika and grinned as well.
"You hear that fellows," Shadowmon asked as she looked back up at Impmon, "Our partner is in love with the leader of the Digidestined. Ou la la! Maybe we should pay the Kamiya household a visit after all. Step on it Myotismon!" Mika looked totally shocked as Shadowmon said that. She looked over at Shadowmon with a completely red face. Shadowmon grinned and showed one of her fangs.
"You don't understand," Mika said as she put her head down, "Tai protected me, stuck up for me, and was there with me through that stupid Digimon attack when we were both living in Highton View Terrace." Impmon looked down at Myotismon and then at Shadowmon. Shadowmon didn't notice Impmon. She was more interested in what Mika just said. Impmon looked down at Mika.
"Wanna tell us about it," Impmon asked as he continued to look at Mika. Mika looked up slightly. Her face was still a red color. Shadowmon looked at Myotismon as he slightly looked at her. All three Digimon looked at her.
"I suppose I could," Mika said as she looked up at the sky, "It's not like it's a secret." Impmon and Shadowmon nodded. Maybe it would be possible to get their old partner back.
Flashback
Four Years Ago
"Well, well isn't it little Mika Aurora," an older boy said to a six-year- old Mika as she tried to hurry by him. The boy grabbed Mika by the back of her shirt. Mika put her books to her face as the boy lifted her up. Suddenly she hit the ground. She put her books down to see a seven-year-old Tai standing in front of her and shaking his fist. The older boy was stumbling away holding his stomach.
"Maybe you should pick on people your own size you overgrown monkey," Tai yelled as he put his fist down. Mika quietly got up and walked over to Tai. Tai turned around and both him and Mika turned bright red.
"Tha.....than.....thank yo.......y....you," Mika said as she stared Tai in the eyes. Tai nodded his head as he seemed to slip into a daze. Mika smiled slightly as Kari came running out of the Kamiya's apartment.
"Tai," Kari said as she tugged on Tai shirt slightly, "mommy said to come in. You can bring your friend with you." Tai looked down at his little sister and nodded. Kari nodded back and ran back inside. Tai then looked back at Mika.
"Sorry," Tai said as he put his hand out, "I'm Tai Kamiya and you are?" Mika turned hugged her books with one arm and shook Tai's hand with the other.
"I'm Mika Aurora," Mika said as she slowly let go of Tai's hand, "I live about five apartments down. It was nice to meet you Tai." Mika was about to walk away when Tai gently grabbed her arm. Mika turned and looked at him. They both were redder then beets.
"Don't you want to say for dinner," Tai asked sweetly, "You can call your parents from my place." Mika smiled brightly and nodded. Tai smiled back and started leading Mika to his front door.
Later that night, Mika was outside making drawings of the night sky. She was an excellent drawer for only being six. Suddenly, something huge fell on a car not to far from her. Mika covered her face and looked toward the steps. Tai was rushing down the steps. He tripped a couple of times, but never fell. Mika stood up and looked at Tai.
"Tai," Mika said as she ran up to Tai, "what's going on? What just happened?" Tai grabbed Mika's hand and looked at her.
"A huge dinosaur just jumped out our bedroom window and took Kari with him," Tai said with a worried voice, "Will you help me find them?" Mika thought that sounded a bit crazy, but she agreed to help. Tai hugged her and started leading the way. Mika turned bright red as she started following Tai.
A few minutes later, Tai and Mika caught up to Kari. Kari was trying to stop a huge Agumon from attacking. Both Tai and Mika ran up to Kari and hugged her. Mika had a little brother of her own and she knew he probably would wanted a hug if he was in Kari's situation.
"What is this thing," Mika asked as she looked at Tai, "and what's going on here? Why is this thing attacking........." Mika trailed off as she looked into the sky. Tai and Kari looked up as well. All three kids looked surprised as a huge parrot hatched from a huge egg in the sky.
"Ok," Tai said as he looked over at Mika, "I'm officially losing it." Kari gripped onto Tai tighter as Mika hugged her from behind. Kari felt save in between both her big brother and new friend.
"You're not losing it," Mika said as the parrot started to fight with Agumon, "Unless we both are." Mika and Tai put their heads down as one of the parrot's attacks hit the bridge above them. Agumon made sure to protect the three as pieces of the bridge came tumbling down. Tai hugged both Kari and Mika.
After a big fight between both monsters, Tai, Mika, and Kari stood in the middle of a destroyed street. Kari was yelling for Graymon to come back. Tai and Mika looked at each other and hugged. That was a difficult experience for the both of them. Kari gave up on calling for Graymon, ran over, and hugged both Mika and Tai.
End of Flashback
"Me and Tai didn't talk after we moved to different apartment houses," Mika said as she put her head back down, "We lost contact. Now I found out that everyone that saw that battle is a Digidestined. Matt, T.K, Joe, Mimi, Sora, Izzy, Tai, Kari, and me. I don't consider myself a Digidestined though. I'm a lone wolf. Digidestined stay in their own little team and......." Mika suddenly stopped. Shadowmon and Impmon both perked their ears up. Myotismon looked over at Mika.
"What's wrong Mika," Shadowmon asked as she looked at Mika. Mika put her hand to her head. Her little brother, Zak, saw that battle too. He was trying to tell their parents that it wasn't a bombing at Highton View Terrace and that it was two monsters fighting. They didn't believe him though. He was only four after all. He can't be a Digidestined too, could he?
"Mika," Impmon said as he looked down at Mika, "are you ok girl? You're starting to freak us out." Mika let out a sigh and shook her head she then put her hand to the top of her head. She felt her goggles.
"It's nothing," Mika said with a sad tone, "or maybe it's finally getting to me." Shadowmon and Impmon looked at each other with confused looks. They then looked back at Mika.
"What's getting to you," Shadowmon asked as she stared at Mika. Mika shook her head and took her goggles off. Shadowmon and Impmon both looked totally surprised. Mika had those goggles on when they met her and she hasn't ever taken them off.
"Tai took these goggles right from around his neck and put them around mine right before we moved," Mika said as she gripped the goggles, "They were so I would remember him by. I still remember him." Shadowmon shook her head. She couldn't hear much more of this.
"You're in love with Tai and have been since you moved," Shadowmon yelled as tears trickled from her eyes, "You've have been putting on an act. You're pretending you hate the Digidestined. You would have never laid a hand on any of them. You were hiding your feelings from Tai a couple of days ago by putting on that act and treating his sister along with everyone else. I've had it. Myotismon, don't stop until you've reached the Kamiya household. I'm getting Tai and Mika back together." Myotismon nodded and picked up speed. Mika quickly put her goggles back on, hugged Myotismon's neck, and started regretting changing what she was going to say. Maybe she should have told them about Zak instead of the goggles.
A few seconds later, Myotismon was hovering right at Tai's balcony. Shadowmon jumped down onto the railing along with Impmon. Mika wasn't about to let go of Myotismon's neck.
"Well," Mika said as she looked in the sliding glass doors, "no one's home. Let's go now." Shadowmon started twitching her tail. She was about to believe that and besides, it was eleven o'clock at night. At least Tai should be home. Shadowmon elbowed Impmon. Impmon nodded his head and lit his finger up.
"Bada Bing," Impmon said as loud as he could, "BADA BOOM!" Impmon set a small fire in front of the doors. A look of horror crossed Mika's face. The light from the fire and Impmon's voice caught Tai's attention. He came running out of his room and outside. As soon as Tai closed one of the doors behind him, Impmon put out his fire. Tai looked highly upset as he walked to the railing.
"What kind of threats are you placing down now Mika," Tai asked with a hint of both anger and sadness in his voice, "I thought we were friends. Maybe a little more then that." Mika shook her head. Shadowmon gave Myotismon a thumbs up. Myotismon nodded his head and bounced Mika off his shoulder. Mika tripped and fell right into Tai when she hit the ground. Tai grabbed her so she wouldn't fall to the ground. Mika looked up at Tai and turned bright red. Tai helped her stand straight up, but he didn't let go of her.
"I'm sorry Tai," Mika said as she hugged Tai and buried her head in his shoulder, "I was putting on an act. I didn't want anyone to know how I really felt about you, not even you. Can you ever forgive me?" Tai shook his head and hugged Mika back.
"Of course I can," Tai said as he put his head on Mika's, "Maybe you can do me a favor as well in exchange." Mika stopped hugging Tai and looked up at him. Tai smiled and put his forehead to Mika's
"Anything Tai," Mika said with a smile. Shadowmon jumped off the railing and walked behind Mika.
"Join our team," Tai said as he stared at Mika, "We need your help." Mika nodded her head. She would do whatever she could to help. Shadowmon decided to make a move. She shoved Mika even closer to Tai making them kiss. Mika quickly stopped and ran over to Myotismon. Myotismon picked her up and she smiled at Tai as they both turned completely red.
"Consider me your Ninth Digidestined," Mika said as Shadowmon and Impmon jumped back onto Myotismon. Myotismon started flying away as Tai ran to the railing.
"That's great," Tai yelled from the balcony, "Meet us in the park at noon." Mika smiled and gave Tai a thumbs up. Shadowmon and Impmon gave each other a high five. They showed Mika the light and brought her back to the way she used to be. Hiding her feelings and putting on an act didn't help her much, but that's all over. She realized that the Digidestined were a team and they all needed to work together. If she continued to ignore that she was part of a team, she would have failed and lost her friends in the process.
"I'm glad I have friends like you three," Mika said as Shadowmon and Impmon looked at her. All three Digimon smiled. Mika then smiled and looked at the sky. She was still worried about Zak.
The Ninth Digidestined
"Gennai said she would appear," Tai said sadly as he laid in his bed holding a phone to his ear, "We just found the Eighth Digidestined. My little sister and her Digimon Gatomon turned out to be who we were searching for. Now, we know who the Ninth Digidestined is who just revealed herself. We don't have too much work in finding her.

"Of course I can," Tai said as he put his head on Mika's, "Maybe you can do me a favor as well in exchange." Mika stopped hugging Tai and looked up at him. Tai smiled and put his forehead to Mika's
"Anything Tai," Mika said with a smile. Shadowmon jumped off the railing and walked behind Mika.
"Join our team," Tai said as he stared at Mika, "We need your help." Mika nodded her head. She would do whatever she could to help. Shadowmon decided to make a move. She shoved Mika even closer to Tai making them kiss. Mika quickly stopped and ran over to Myotismon. Myotismon picked her up and she smiled at Tai as they both turned completely red.
"Consider me your Ninth Digidestined," Mika said as Shadowmon and Impmon jumped back onto Myotismon. Myotismon started flying away as Tai ran to the railing.
"That's great," Tai yelled from the balcony, "Meet us in the park at noon." Mika smiled and gave Tai a thumbs up. Shadowmon and Impmon gave each other a high five. They showed Mika the light and brought her back to the way she used to be. Hiding her feelings and putting on an act didn't help her much, but that's all over. She realized that the Digidestined were a team and they all needed to work together. If she continued to ignore that she was part of a team, she would have failed and lost her friends in the process.
"I'm glad I have friends like you three," Mika said as Shadowmon and Impmon looked at her. All three Digimon smiled. Mika then smiled and looked at the sky. She was still worried about Zak.
