Episode #01

Portal Of Mystery ... Part 1

The room was dark, and the only light emanated from a round glass ball, which was being held by a rather unpleasant clawed hand. To say held though would be incorrect. The bauble was actually floating above the Mega Digimon's claws. From within the sphere, a voice came, and a bright light shone forth. The two Digimon were obviously engaging in some sort of conversation.

The voice from the bauble said, "Kurayamimon you cannot do this, or you shall be exiled from the counsel! Your absence will upset the entire balance of our world, as well as Eeaarth's. You know that, don't you." This last statement was more of a statement rather than a question.

"I know all that I need to. Hikarimon, you old fool." And with that he crushed the bauble with his mighty hand, severing their feeble connection. With that he grinned, showing many long sharp teeth, his evil chucle resonating throught the hall.

======

It was a hot and rather unpleasant day as our story begins. Sitting by a pond, sprawled out on the hot, springy turf underneath the shade of a large tree, were three young girls, and two boys.

The first girl, Mel, had short brown hair with a white T-shirt on, a blue vest, black jeans with short red stripes running down the sides, rather large brown boots, and a brown leather bag hanging from her belt. Her gray eyes looked around the landscape lazily, as if searching for something to do.

The oldest girl, Lexxy, had short sandy hair, and long bangs that gracefully swept down the side of her face. She was wearing a light pink tank-top that had a red sparkly daisy in the middle, and a pair of baggy blue jeans and white Nike shoes. She had brilliant blue eyes, and despite the heat, she seemed alert and energized.

The last girl, Rosie, had tanned skin and long, black hair. She was wearing a black shirt, dark blue jeans, black sneakers, and a gray bandanna rolled up and wrapped around her head. Her eyes were a deep brown, and she was busily watching the birds in the tree above them.

The boy sitting next to Mel was her brother Michael, slightly older, wearing a similar outfit except he lacked the vest and bag, he wore a black leather jacket and black leather boots, and his brown hair was spiked up and back. His eyes were the same as his sister's.

The next boy, Caleb, Mel's cousin was asleep on the grass in a plain light blue T-shirt, and blue jeans with brown boots. Had he been awake, his yellow green eyes would have been visible.

The last boy, Mark, must have been under seven years old, and was busily watching some ants. He had a dirty pair of jeans on which were a size too large for him, held up only by a brown belt and his green shirt tucked in, followed by once-blue sneakers. His hair was the same color as Caleb's, and he had the same green-yellow eyes, for he was his brother.

The first to break to silence was Mel with a long and drawn out exclamation of the heat. "H-o-T." she moaned, carefully pronouncing each letter, and delicately placing the 'T' at the end.

Added to this was a mumbling sound, coming from a peacefully sleeping Caleb, leaning against the tree.

Then Michael answered back, "I know. It's just too hot to do anything about this darned heat." This brought about a quiet chuckle from most everyone from the group.

"And it isn't much better inside after the AC died," said Lexxy, reminding them of their situation. After she said 'died,' she made a puth sound as to indicate the dying of the AC, and gave the thumbs-down sign.

"We could go swimming ... " Rosie suggested, but second thought this. Before she could correct her self, Mel did.

"And be eaten alive by whatever is in there, no thank you. I'd rather roast. Quite literally I might add."

"Ugh. Or be steamed as our case may be," said Michael, adding his two cents of thought.

All were obviously bored, for they had been sitting there for hours, with nothing to do, nor the energy to do it. Suddenly the sky went dark and the air noticeably cooled off. All sat up and looked around, even Caleb who had been awakened for some reason, the whole group feeling a sudden energy in the air. No one spoke, and the was a long silence.

"Do you feel ... " said Michael, looking around, as if expecting something to happen. He didn't even have to finish this question.

From the rest of the group came confirmations of, "Uh huh," as they sat up and wildly looked around, looking for something, anything. Their attention was soon drawn to the sun which was being eclipsed by a round dark object.

"Look! A Solar Eclipse!" Exclaimed Lexxy, pointing at the sun. "But ... that's impossible, there isn't one scheduled for today, not here any way ... " her voice trailing off in amazement.

"Auras!" said Michael, for indeed auras were burning brightly in the sky. "But ... weird."

The object was fully in place now, and it suddenly, began to glow a blue color, getting brighter and lighter all the time. White-hot branches of lightning reached out of the orb and one was heading straight for the group.

In the tense silence, Mel mumbled in awe, "Well I know why I'm afraid of the lightning ... " referring to the song 'Psychobabble.' She then continued, this time with panic in her voice. " ... This time it really is trying to reach us!" Then, realizing the danger they were in, she screamed out "RUN!" And the group scattered. But this did not stop the lightning-like formations, it branched out and hit each of the group members, freezing them in their stride. There was a bright flash of light, and they were gone, leaving only the scent of Ozone.

"I feel as if I am screaming, but not a sound is heard. Hm, I will have to write that down later, If I live till later ..." thought Caleb as he closed his eyes in fear.

All of the children were being pushed and pulled head over heels into an unknown vortex, their eyes dazzled with colors they never knew existed, the spinning and turning made them oblivious that small objects had been forming slowly in their hands, like a pearl does in a oyster's shell.

Then all went black.

======

A while later, Mel awoke, not knowing if she were dead, alive or somewhere in-between. Her whole body felt numb, as if she had been electrified, or sleeping for a very long time. She did not come fully into consciousness, it was almost as if she was entering a dream, slowly and little by little she became more and more aware of her surroundings. She opened and closed her hands testing if they were still working. Her left hand was holding something smooth and firm.

"What is this?" she wondered, and held the strange shaped object to her face. It was white and turquoise, about the size of her fist. In the middle of it was a screen, rimmed with a turquoise ring, which was rippling an array of colors that were almost hypnotizing. On the left of the screen were six lights, the bottom two glowing turquoise. On the right side was a triangle which was pointing down toward four buttons beneath the screen. It too was glowing turquoise. It's last feature was an antenna sticking out the top right corner.

"What IS this?" she thought again. "It sure is pretty, and my favorite colors too. Where am I? And what did I fall through?" Her thoughts were clear and almost audible to the outside world. This brought her to a higher state of consciousness. Then she spoke aloud and closed her eyes again, her voice cracking and weak. "Shoot, I sure don't know a lot."

"That's for sure!" said a cheery voice.

Her eyes snapped open, and she struggle to get up but was again weighed down by something ... more.

In a startled voice, she said, "Who's there?" As she looked down on the little thing on her chest, which stared back at her.

"Hi! I'm Pugimon! I'm your Digital counterpart! Welcome to the Digital World!" the thing said.

At this she was shocked into full consciousness and adrenaline surged into her blood stream. All she could do was gape at the small round creature sitting on her torso, and try to decide if it was dangerous. She finally managed to stutter a few questions. "Aaa ... aaa ... who ... ? Who are you? Where ... ? Some one wake me up! I have to be dreaming!"

"Nope! You are not dreaming! You're in the Digital World! Isn't that wonderful? Huh? Well? Isn't it?"

Mel quickly stood up and started wildly looking around. Instead of her friends, all she saw were strange plants of almost every color. She then focused her attention back on the bouncing ball of joy now in her lap. She was a kind of cute bouncing ball of energy ... she was a light teal color and had long rumpled ears, a small horn on the top of her head, a small white diamond shape on her forehead, and two small wings with three white feathers in each. Mel quickly came out of her short revere, and asked another question.

"Uh ... What d-did you say your name is?" she said, carefully turning the words over in her mouth. Her head was still swimming from the fall, and felt as if she would soon find herself lying on her back again.

"He he he ... Pugimon! I'm your Digital counterpart! Your companion! I'm a Digimon! And you are a human girl!" she exclaimed happily. The longer she talked, the happier she became and the more she wiggled around in Mel's hands.

"A ... a Digimon? What is that?" She began to feel queasy, so she sat down rather roughly on the forest floor.

"Wow, you humans sure don't know much! Digimon is short for Digital Monster! We live in the Digital World!" The little Digimon was bouncing around on the ground and flapping her short wings. She flipped over a few times and continued to giggle.

"Digital ... World?" said Mel, bewildered at the thought. "Am I really in another world?"

======

Michael found himself in a similar condition as his sister, sprawled out on his back in tall grass. He found a similar device in his hand, except it was blue and white. He puzzled over this strange device, and as he did, a shadow passed over head blocking out the sun for a second. His attention was drawn from the device to the small bouncing creature to his right. No, left. No, right again. The creature wouldn't stop moving around. Michael sat up, and looked in awe at the small creature now bouncing in front of him at his feet. The little creature was a light blue color, with long thin ears, three large scales on his forehead, little pointy teeth sticking out of his mouth, and big cerulean eyes with blue markings behind them.

"Uh ... who are you?" Michael inquired of the head. After thinking for a split second, he asked, "Or should I say, what are you?"

"I'm Dropamon! I'm your Digimon partner! I'm the one who will protect you, and defend you, or keep you from getting hurt! I'm a Digimon short for Digital Monster, I'm your friend!" he said excitedly, almost singing each word.

"Uh, I guess that's cool. Do you have any idea where I am ... or where we are?" inquired Michael, his voice shaking a little.

"Ummm, HERE!" the little creature yelled, and at this he began giggling uncontrollably, obviously pleased with the stupid joke he had just made.

"Yeah but, where is here?" Michael continued to wonder.

======

"Whoa!" Said Mark, sitting up quickly. "What a weird dream I had! Where am I? Caleb? Anyone?" He stood up frantically looking around for a sign of any human life. "Is any one here?" he asked again quietly, sitting down and hugging his arms into his chest, as his eyes began to fill with tears. The forest seemed awful scary to him, even though it was well lit and the floor was carpeted by a soft moss. Then he noticed he was holding something. "Huh? Wow! Orange!" he exclaimed, forgetting his fears. "It's so cool! What do all these buttons do ... ?" he asked to himself, pushing buttons on the Digivice at random. He soon grew bored with the toy, and standing up, he put it into his pocket, and proceeded to look around.

"Bonzai! Look out below!" yelled a voice from behind him.

"Aaaa! Don't hurt me" screamed Mark falling onto the mossy floor. The tiny creature that yelled impacted on the ground in front of him, making a small brown crater. "Who are you?" asked Mark. The little creature crawled out of the hole.

"I'm Kuzumon! And your Digimon friend." he said bowing low. He was only about two feet tall, with short legs, red wings for arms with three fingers at their middle, a wedge shaped head with clear blue eyes, brilliant yellow and orange hair, two small white horn buds, long blue ears, a blue body with a lighter blue underside, a long tail, tipped with the same spiky long fuzz. Despite his size, there was an air of nobility about him, and he seemed ancient, though he was obviously young.

"Wow. You are so cool! But, uh, what's a Digimon?" asked Mark.

"I'm glad you asked." said Kuzumon.
