Digimon Academy

I'm BOORREEDDD.... Why can't anything exciting happen in Japone? Thought Essence Wing.

She sighed and stepped away from the window. She went into the bathroom and splashed some water on her face darkish lightish brown fur. She looked up and was greeted by her sparkling blue eyes staring straight at her. She pulled her mane back into three ponytails (Pun not intended) and wrapped them in light red bands. She did the same for her tail and flapped out her wings, inspecting them closely, seeing how each feather was layed out. She moved down until she saw her cutie mark. It was a four-pointed star with a pair of wings attached to it.

She smiled and remembered that time she got it.

The wonderbolts were doing a special performance for the empress and she got to go. She was young back then and barely knew how to fly. It was half way through the show when she realized everypony was watching her. She was flying and copying the wonderbolt's moves almost exact. But the most remarkable thing was the stars had just came out when everypony noticed her. She looked down and saw her cutie mark on that once blank flank.

She looked back up and felt a tickle in her nose. She took a deep breath and grabbed a tissue. She sneezed and watched a dark grey feather fall down. She looked up and saw a hole in the cloud ceiling. Sure enough it was her brother, Night Wing. He was kicking holes in his floor, His records blaring loud, again.

“Night Wing!! Stop kicking out your floor while I'm getting set to go somewhere!” she yelled at him.

He shrugged and barely noticed her, but he stopped none the less. She sighed a breath of relief and walked out into the

living room.

She looked around at the familiar sights. The stairway on the left near her door, check, The sofa, ruined with tons of holes in it, check, Otherwise, it was a nice home. It had a warm atmosphere, nice décor, tons of food in the kitchen. She walked into the kitchen and opened up the cupboards and grabbed some oats. She silently munched on them, until there was a knock on the door.

“Squirt! Go get the door!” yelled Night from his room.

“Why do I always got to do it...” muttered Essence, opening the door.

She opened the door to find that no pony was there. She looked down and there was a package and a note. She picked up the note and read it. It said:

To Essence and Night Wing.

You are both invited to the Digimon Academy. You have been entrusted with two digimon, or rather digital monsters. They are in their egg stage right now but soon will hatch with time. How they grow and experience this world is up to you.

She looked around for a return address but none was to be found. She put the letter down and pulled the package. She opened it up and found two eggs in it. One was purple with stars on it and the other was blue and had triangles on it.

“But who sent them...” she said aloud.

“Who sent what?” said a voice.

Essence turned around and saw Night coming out of his bedroom and down the stairs. He was a grey stallion Pegasus with slightly darker eyes than Essence. He had a dark blue mane and tail with a yellow streak through it. It was a bit windswept but he was one of the fastest flyers in japone. His cutie mark was two samurai swords clashing together.

She held up the letter and said “Well we're something called a digidestined and yeah... we got pets I guess...”

She picked up the one with stars on it and inspected it closely. No cracks or anything that looks like it would be damaged.

She slowly picked it up and carried it to her room. She covered it up with a blanket and sat down.

Tick... tock... tick... tock...

She sighed loudly and flopped on her back. She didn't care that her feathers were getting messed up and she would need to fix them again before she went flying again.

An hour went by and Essence was on the floor, snoring. Eventually there was a loud crack that woke Essence up. She sat up quickly and looked at the egg. Sure enough, The egg had cracked. She crawled up to it and tapped it. In response to her touch it started to glow. She backed away quickly and in the egg's place was a... blue thing. It had tiny wings and looked as shiny as a pearl. It also had giant eyes that were purely black. Besides the thing was a green and white object. It was shaped like something that was just introduced in Neighpon called a cell phone, Except it didn't have that lid that flips open. Shame that they didn't have any in Japone.

It opened its eyes and said “Hello?”

Essence was on the back wall, struggling to get as far away from that thing as she could.

“S-s-stay back!! I-i-i know how to f-f-fight!!” she yelled at it.

It wasn't even fazed by her yelling.

“I won't hurt you... I promise...  I can't even fight yet...” it said.

Essence creeped forward a bit and stared at the creature.

“What are you?” she asked, curiously.

“I'm a digimon. Who are you?”

“Essence Wing. Do you have a name or do I have to make one up for you?”

“No you don't. My name is Pupumon!!”

“Um... maybe I should just call you squishy...”

“Hey!! Whats wrong with the name I got!?”

“Nothing! It just sounds... weird I guess..”

Essence rubbed the back of her head nervously. Pupumon just smiled and hopped on her back.

“I'm starving, can I eat now?” he asked.

Essence picked the green and white object up. They made their way down to the kitchen and Essence got Pupumon something to eat.

“so... where did you come from?” she asked.

“The digital world I guess. I don't remember when I came to the real world.” he answered in between bites of berries and oats.

Suddenly he started to glow and when the light disappeared in his place was a creature that looked like a bee but had three pairs of wings. It had huge green eyes, Two tiny antenna, stubby legs and had a small stinger on its rump, but he was yellow and had no stripes.

“Yay!! I digivolved!!! It shouldn't have been that quick but still yay!” he shouted as he flew all around the room.

“Um.... what just happened...” Essence said, stunned.

“I digivolved to Puroromon! Hm? Whats this piece of paper?” he said, seeing the letter on the floor by the box.

He flew over and picked it up and read it.

“OOH it says here you got to go to a aca... acua... acea... a thing!” he shouted out, having some difficulty with the word academy.

“Yeah but I got school tomorrow as well.. plus I have no idea where this place is.” Essence explained.

Puroromon nodded his head like he understood what she was saying when in realitity he did not. He did, however, understand that she had no idea where it was though.

“Well maybe this Night Wing would know?” he suggested, helpfully.

“Silly, Night is my brother. He never smiles though...” Essence said as her brother walked out of his room.

“Essence, what's this following me?” he said, reffering to the green seahorse-dragon thing on his back.

It had a horns like branching coral and a tail like a cloud.

“Hey! I'm not a something! The name's Babydmon! Now like it or not I'm your partner!” he said.

Puroromon just stared at him, still buzzing in the air.

“Um... now what's that floating in the air?” he asked Essence, pointing at puroromon.

“Well its a digimon of course... You have one. didn't he explain what he is and stuff?” Essence explained.

Babydmon looked guilty and said “Um... yeah... I didn't do that... heh... sorry...”  Night rolled his eyes.

“Whatever, I work alone though got that?” he said to babydmon.

He nodded sadly and Night walked back to his room.

Essence just stared and said “Um... well... Babydmon? Its ok... he'll come around eventually.”

Essence walked over and pulled out a Saddle Bag with her Cutie Mark on it.

“Hey Night?! I'm going on a little walk 'kay? When I'll be back, I have no idea.” Essence shouted.

No response.

“Babydmon? Keep out of sight of my mom when she comes home."Essence continued.

He nodded and ate the rest of Puroromon's oats.

“Hey!! Those are mine!” Puroromon yelled, ramming Babydmon.

“Hot Steam!!" yelled Babydmon, Pushing Puroromon back with a burst of hot steam.

“Chikkuritto!” puroromon yelled, slicing through the steam with his little stinger.

“Grr... stop it!” Yelled Essence, who was busy packing food and medical supplies.

The digimon turned and stared at her. Puroromon looked down sadly.

“I'm sorry I yelled. Just don't fight again. Now if we're partners then I guess you better hop in.” she said, pointing to the empty second saddlebag.

Puroromon buzzed in and poked his head out. Essence slipped the saddlebags on and fit her wings in the holes cut out for pegasi.

“I suggest you hold on tight, these wings are not for- oh wait!!! I forgot something!!” Essence said, flying into her room.

She grabbed her blue vest and took off her saddlebags and slipped it on. She put the saddlebags back on and  flew out. She peeked inside the empty saddlebag and saw puroromon was asleep.

“Only two minutes and he's asleep...” she said as she dropped a small bag of oats into it for when he woke up.

She ran out the door and started to flap her wings as hard as she could. She wobbled a bit before remembering something important.

She needed to readjust her flight feathers.

Bursting out of the house with the same bravado as before, she managed to get a lift of air.

She soared for hours, over houses, over trees and eventually getting to the ocean. She took a mini telescope out of her vest pocket and looked through it. She saw an island close by the, or so it seemed through the telescope. The only problem was the sun was lowering. She took off towards that island. It was nightfall when she landed on the island so she decided to set up camp there. She suddenly heard laughing. She made her way over to the sound and she saw a bonfire with what looked like a whole class of ponies and... digimon?

  There were cheers of delight as the fire sprung up, dancing in the wind.

She stepped torwards the nearest pony and said “Um, excuse me? Is this the digimon Academy? I got a letter saying to come here...”

the pony turned and said “Yes this is, who are you?"

The pony was a tan unicorn with a light blue mane that parted where his horn is. His tail stuck out and was blue with cyan tips. He had green eyes and his cutie mark was two blue lightning bolts crossing in an X formation. The digimon next to him looked like a tapir with a metal helmet and a golden ring around his wrist. He was connected to a cloudlike object and he was chewing on something hard and sticky.

“I'm Essence Wing... Yours?” She said

"The name's Lightning Blast and this is my partner Tapirmon.”

Tapirmon bowed.

“Essence Wing.... Ah, Thats a beautiful name you have. So care to join me for dinner?"

Essence nodded shyly as she took Lighting's hoof.

" I run the new tamer class, If you didn't know. Oh wait, where's your digimon?” he said.

She pointed to the saddlebags and took them off. She poked Puroromon, In response he flew up lazily.

“Morning already? When's breakfast... hey why is so dark?”  He said.

He looked around and saw Essence's face was right next to his.

“AAH! Don't scare me like that Essence...” he  said, hugging Essence.

Essence hugged him back and said “We made it I think. This is Lightning Blast and Tapirmon. Lightning, Tapirmon, this is [uroromon. He's my partner digimon I guess."

  Lightning looked closer at puroromon.

“Ah I see. He's in his In-Training form. Soon he'll digivolve again into his Rookie form. That will be FanBeemon.  You got an amazing digimon there. not very often a tamer meets a virus type like this digimon. How long ago did he hatch. He should have been in his fresh form. That would have been Pupumon.” explained Lightning.

“Um.. when he hatched? This morning I think... or rather torwards lunch time...” She said, confused.

Lightning thought for a bit then replied “He should digivolve again sometime tonight acually... if my math is correct.. then again I didn't get my cutie mark in math. Anyways help yourself to some of our treats.”

Puroromon buzzed away and started eyeing a container of yellow sweets.

Tapirmon floated over and said “You want some Digi-Bytes? Here.”

He handed Puroromon a container of them. Puroromon squealed in glee and started to eat. He finished them soon after. He reached up for another one when the whole table came crashing down on top of him. Tapirmon and other digimon tried helped him out but a white glow was coming from under the food.

“Puroromon digivolve to.... FanBeemon !!” he yelled as he burst out as FanBeemon.

He was a whole lot bigger with three pairs of legs that are fully grown. His huge green eyes were gone and replaced by normal green eyes. One pair of his wings disappeared but the other two grew bigger. His attenna grew bigger but also floppier.  A bunch of ponies crowded over to see the digimon.

Essence was wondering what the hubub was all about. She flew over and saw a digimon that she didn't see before. It was covered in food though. It flew over to her and hugged her, laughing.

“Oh.. its you Puroromon... I guess you digivolved again though..” Essence said, smiling.

Everypony just stared at her, just because she wasn't ever there before. An old unicorn began to push his way through the crowd.

He asked essence “Are you Essence Wing?”

Essence nodded.

“but where's your brother? He got send a letter too right?”

“Uh huh... he stayed back in Japone though. He had a digimon called umm... Babydmon thats right! Hey, how did you know I have a brother? Have you been watching us?”

“What?! No! The digital world tells us when new Tamers have risen. And you two were in the area together all the time so I assumed that you were either family or very good friends.”

“Ah... I see sorry about that..”

“Water under the bridge. Now can I see the letter just to see if it got there safely?”

“Sure.” said essence, pulling out the letter.

She showed it to him and he took in in a light blue aura.

“Lets see... Ah ok then here you go and welcome to the digimon Academy! I am King piece and I am the headmaster around here. You got here kind of late so why don't we all go retire for the night?"

He takes out a list of names with a burst of magic. "You will be staying with Rainy Days. She studies hard but she's a nice mare.”
