Digimon: The Darkness of Pride (Book 1)

Chapter 1-"And So It Begins"

Episode 1: "And So It Begins"

It was a normal day at summer camp when it all started. 8 year olds, Serena Minomoto and Kol Himi were playing with a ball, throwing back and forth to one another, while some of the other kids where all off doing something else, when all of a sudden a blizzard came out of nowhere forcing everyone inside.

"Kol, look it's snowing" Serena said as looked up at the sky.

"Serena, come on. Let's get back inside" Kol said as they started to run towards the cabin.

After a few minute, the snow had stopped. Serena was happy when she saw that the blizzard stop, when a boy with wild brown hair and goggles opened the door first and gasped at the sight of the winter wonderland in summer. Needless to say, the canoe races were canceled.

"So let's have toboggan races instead!" he cried running out of the cabin.

"I'm gonna build the biggest snowman!" a little blonde boy laughed while running out.

"Hey, TK, be careful!" an older version of the boy yelled as he ran after the little guy, "slow down!"

"Brr, it is freezing!" a red head shivered, "and I didn't even bring a jacket."

"Man! I was worried I'd catch a summer cold, but this is even worse!" a boy with blue hair and glasses said as he came out next.

"Wow!" a girl wearing all pink gasped, "why didn't I pack my fluffy pink snow boots?"

Kol and Serena looked at each other before running out the door, into the snow and started to make snowballs. "I'm gonna get you Serena" Kol said as he thought a snowball at the little blonde girl. "Not if I get you first" Serena said as she alos thought a snowball towards the black haired boy. The two snowballs hit their targets at the same time. "Ow" Serena and Kol said as the snowballs hit them in their faces.

"Hey, what's their names!" a voice yelled, "Izzy, Serena, Kol, Get over here."

Serena and Kol ran over to the rest of the group with Izzy right behind them as the others were staring at the strange lights in the sky.

"It's beautiful! Magical even!"

"Yeah, but what is it?" Izzy asked.

"Maybe an aurora?" the red head answered in the form of a question.

"You mean the northern lights?" Serena asked.

"That's impossible!" Izzy answered, "you see that in Alaska and we're way too far south."

"Tell that to the snow," the red head stated.

"I really think we all oughta get back inside before we all come down with ammonia!" the bluenette said, worried.

"And miss this?" the older blonde asked, "the sky is, like, short circuiting!"

"Hey, what's that?" Kol said pointing to the sky.

The group look up as the lights disappeared and a strange swirling vortex appeared in its place.

"Do you think we need sun screen?" the girl in pink asked.

The vortex begans to glow and shot out nine different lights that looked like fireballs making everyone gasp and stare in fear. The fireballs hit the ground in front of them while some of the 9 kids ducked for cover.

"Everyone, are you alright?" the red head asked

"We're still here," the older blonde answered.

"That was scary!" the pink girl whined.
