Hey guys, Lunamon810 here. With chapter three of The Digi Days. This story is very interesting for me to write, and as far as how I write I like writing on this much more than some stories because I prefer writing in first person. I feel like (and have been told) I write better in first person. So yeah. Anyways, enjoy~
Disclaimer: I do not own Digimon!
Claimer: I do own Kayani, Dylan, and Kaylan.
"This is so boring. When are we ever going to use any of this in real life?" I wondered, staring at the chalkboard in front of me. I was in math class, of all the unholy places there were. I sighed and continued doodling in the corner of my math notebook. At this rate, I'd have art skills like my idol Rosebell Tucker. I kept looking between the board and my notebook, writing down what she told us to then returning to my doodling. For most of school I was fairly enthusiastic, and I really tried to be with Math, but some of the stuff they taught us just didn't make sense. I looked at the clock. Four more minutes until class was over.
I sighed, finishing writing down some math equation she'd wrote on the board. Then I started shading the flower I'd been drawing, and no not some silly cartoon flower people would normally draw when they were bored. I actually tried hard, even with my doodles. I closed my eyes, setting my pencil down, about to pull out my pencil sharpener so I could sharpen it. Suddenly I didn't feel my desk there anymore, and I opened my eyes to see dead grass charging up towards me.
I tried to prepare to hit the ground, but when I hit it it still hurt. A small yellow bug-looking thing flew towards me with blue wings and a big green eyes. "Hey, are you alright? You're not hurt are you!" I blinked hard. Had that bug just talked? It landed next to me, looking me over. "You seem alright," It had a high-ish pitched male voice, that sounded worried. "Do you feel alright?"
I wondered for a minute if math had actually driven me insane. If if had, I guess I was going to let it, because I responded. "Yeah, I think so... I don't know where I am though." I admitted. I sat up on my knees, glad I'd hit grass and not stone, or else I'd be scraped up to all heck. I looked at it. "Who are you?"
"I'm Puroromon! I'm your digimon partner! What's your name?"
"My digimon partner? What's that? Oh, and my names Kaylan, but you can just call me Kay if you'd prefer."
"Digimon is short for digital monster, and you're my partner, and I'm your partner. My world, this world, the digital world, is in danger. It's made up completely of data, you see, and the data is getting corrupted. We don't know but what, but it's corrupting the digimon and the rest of the digiworld to. The powerful digimon sealed themselves a way so they wouldn't get corrupted and destroy it, but before they did Azulongmon picked children from your world to come help us!"
"How am I supposed to help?" I asked, tilting my head. "Are you sure you've got the right person? And-and what happens if we fail?"
"Well, you see, Azulongmon hid these things called 'crests' throughout the digital world! And well, when we find ours, I'll be able to digivolve! When I digivolve, I collect data and change into something bigger and stronger than what I am right now! And then it'll be easier to defeat whatever's corrupting the data! And of course we do, Azulongmon picked and brought you here himself! If we fail...well... the digiworld will vanish... and... so will we."
My face and heart dropped. "But I can't even past a simple math test, more less save an entire world! What are we gonna do Puroromon!?"
"Don't worry Kay! We'll figure it out, I promise! Oh, follow me!" He said, flying over to something on the ground. I followed him, and picked up what he landed next to. It was some type of device, it looked slightly complicated to use. It was a really pretty blue and white though. I smiled at the bug digimon. "What's this?"
"It's called a digivice! It'll help me digivolve too! Keep it with you at all times!" I nodded and put it in the zipper pocket of my dark blue skort which reached my knees. I straightened the bottom of my white button up shirt, and the cuffs at my elbows where the sleeves ended. My white cloth-material boots reached about about my mid-shin. I started walking, Puroromon following right behind.
"So are there other species of digimon?" I asked, looking at Puroromon as we walked. He nodded smiling.
"All different kinds! There are so many different species, we have different levels and everything! Baby Fresh, In-Training, which is what I am, Rookie, Champion, Ultimate, Mega, and then there are ones like armor! And there are different types, like Vacine and Virus. There are more species than I can count!"
"That's amazing! I can't believe you guys have coexisted with us, and we never knew about you." I said, truly amazed and fascinated. It was so odd that they'd been here and we'd never known it.
"No one but the powerful digimon like Azulongmon and Magnadramon knew about you guys either. Are there different species of human?"
"Human? No. Humans are their own species. There are different species of things like animals, bugs, plants, insects. You look kind of like a fly from where I come from, except they're much smaller," I said, demonstrating the size of a fly with fingers. "and they're all black."
"Oh wow! So there are different species where you come from!" He said happily. "So even though the species are different, they aren't completely! And that means our worlds aren't completely different, but still different!"
"Uh-huh!" I said grinning. I got the feeling the two of us would get along great. "Do all digimon talk?"
"Mostly, except for a few species here and there, and some of the Baby Fresh digimon. Do all humans talk? Are they the only species that talk?"
"Most humans, unless they have some type of medical issue that handicaps them. For the most part yeah, but there are parrots, and they can say what you teach them to say."
"Parrots? We have a Parrotmon. It's a big bird!"
"Parrots are birds on Earth." I nodded. "So our world does have some similarities."
It got increasingly colder as we walked, and soon Puroromon hid in one of my blonde pigtails, which reached about my mid back. I kept walking, though it started snowing. I reached out my hand as the cold flakes touched my skin. "So it snows here." I kept walking, starting to feel ice cold. I kept walking, and walking, and by time I realized I should turn back I knew I was too far along to do so. I kept walking, but eventually the cold got to me and I dropped to my knees. "It's too cold..."
"C-Come on K-Kay! W-We'll find s-somewhere w-warm soon a-and e-everything will be a-alright." Puroromon chirped. I held my elbows in my hands, trying to keep warm.
"I-I can't... It's too cold." Puroromon flew out of my hair and started poking my arms.
"C-Come on! D-Don't give up now K-Kaylan! You-you can't give u-up on me. W-What about the d-digiworld? W-What'll happen to it i-if we d-don't save it?"
"G-Go on, Puroromon. K-Keep flying. G-Get to shelter." I said, slowly easing back so I was pretty much sitting on my heels. It was too cold for me to feel anything. I brought my arms and shoulder closer to my chest, tucking my head in a bit too. It was just too cold. There was no way I could make it anymore. There was no telling how far away shelter could be, if there was any at all.
"I-I can't d-d-do this w-without you, K-Kaylan. P-Please, we, we have to s-save the digiworld. C-Come on Kay, l-lets keep moving."
"I-I can't Pur-roromon. I j-just can't."
"Yes y-you can! I-I promise it'll be ok-kay!" I looked at the small bug digimon and swallowed hard, putting my palms against the snow, taking a deep breath which hurt due to the cold, and pushed myself up, even though my hands sunk wrist-deep into the snow. I didn't even bother to try to knock the snow off that was on my legs, it'd just get put back on by the storm. I was going at a very slow rate, about a step every four or five seconds, but at least I was going. I had to. For Puroromon.
It felt like a layer of ice was in casing me, and going deep into my bones. But I just had to think about Puroromon to keep going. Puroromon was now hiding in my hair again, trying his best to stay warm. I kept my eyes squinted, but I was almost afraid they would freeze shut. And it took me forever to see the bulb of light in the distance. I doubled my pace, and I felt Puroromon hold on tighter as I headed towards it.
I reached a village of small huts, hesitated, then knocked on one of the doors. Someone who looked like a young kid wearing some type of white cloth with angel wings and some blue markings opened the door. He had short, neat blonde hair. "Hello! Hurry in, it's cold out here!" He stepped out of the way and I nodded gratefully and stepped inside. He closed the door behind us and led me to the fire in the center of the room. I sat down and smiled as the ice and snow melted that was resting on my skin, and Puroromon flew out of my hair and landed next to me. "I'm Lucemon, by the way. And who might you be?"
"My name is Kaylan, but you can call me Kay."
"Why? The name Kaylan is so pretty." He said smiling as he stirred some type of stew. "Would you like something to eat?"
"Please." I said, nodding once, smiling. Puroromon nodded eagerly, and Lucemon smiled and fixed three bowls of stew, bringing them over to us after words I smiled as he handed me my bowl. "Thank you, Lucemon."
"You're welcome." He said smiling, setting a bowl down in front of Puroromon. The three of us started eating, and he smiled. I looked at him, wondering why he was smiling. "I'm sorry, I just normally don't get such pretty guests." I felt the heat rush to my cheeks as I bent my head forward to avoid him seeing me blush.
"T-Thank you, Lucemon." Puroromon giggled, and I nudged him with my foot to stop him as I continued eating my stew. "The stew's really good."
"Thank you, it's a recipe I've came up with myself over the past few years."
"It's really good!" Puroromon chimed in happily before continuing to eat his own. I looked at him, wondering how he was eating so much for such a small digimon. I shrugged and continued eating my own, figuring he was able to because digimon were different than humans or other living creatures on Earth.
"You don't look familiar. You're not a digimon, are you?"
"No, I'm a human," I said, looking at Lucemon and nodded. "You're a digimon though, right? Because you have mon at the end of your name."
"Right." Lucemon smiled and nodded. "But humans are from a different world, how did you get here?"
"Azulongmon brought her here so she could help us stop the corruption!" Puroromon said, knowing I had no way to explain it on my own. "She's my partner, and when we find this thing called a crest, I'll be able to digivolve into a Ultimate!"
"That sounds great!" Lucemon said smiling. "You'll have to let me know if there's anyway I can help, even if it's later on from now. Okay, Kaylan?"
"Okay. I will." I nodded, smiling, and finished my stew.
"Would you like some more?"
"Yes, please." While Lucemon tended to getting more stew for me, I looked at Puroromon. "So right now you're In-Training. Then you'll be Rookie. How do you become a Rookie?"
"I just have to build up my strength, by resting and eating and things like that! And then after that, I can work towards becoming a Champion level when I need to, but most of the time I'll be in my Rookie form. Then when we get the crest I can reach Ultimate!"
"Sounds great." I said, nodding, then looked at Lucemon as he came back and handed my my bowl of stew. "What level digimon are you?"
"I"m a Rookie."
"Really? You are? You're so much bigger then Puroromon, but you're only a level higher."
"All levels of digimon come in all shapes and sizes. There are even some Ultimate levels that are only about this big." He said, making about a foot's length with his hands. "Like a digimon named Piximon. There are in-training level digimon that big too, like Moonmon. Size doesn't determine strength though!"
"Of course it doesn't. But wow, that's amazing! Digimon are a lot more complex than I thought, and that's saying something!"
"Hehe, yeah. But don't overthink it, just enjoy being here. It's not every day you get to go to an entire different world! I hope I can go to Earth one day, I think that would be cool!"
"That would be awesome. I hope you get to too." I nodded, smiling.
