It was after school, and Karn was walking home from school, a lionlike cub creature resting on his shoulders. Forepaws with long claws resting against the top of his blonde head, as the creature sat against the back with back legs dangling over the boy's shoulders. Though unlike most lions, this one had a reddish mane and a golden collar with a green gem. A Digimon called Leormon, a quite respected type by most people. Considering it was a tough Digimon even as a rookie.

At one point, they had even entered into competition, mostly to Leormon's insistance since Karn didn't really like fighting for sport. Still, the little feline Digimon managed to take down even a Champion level Digimon in battle just as a rookie. Of course it was just a lucky bit from the Critical Bite attack, but Leormon was quite proud with himself over it.

Another reason was because he was a Holy Beast, and some believed it meant good fortune for someone to have a holy Digimon. Karn wouldn't have mind any Digimon, even a virus, but he was glad to have Leormon. He had been a great friend, and he would have been sad if he had lost him along with many of people who once had partners of their own.

As Karn walked along, he noticed a little girl crying over what appeared to be a doll with its head ripped off. The blonde boy smiled and walked over, kneeling down and picking it up before reaching in his pocket and taking out a mini sewing kit and stiching the cloth doll together. Once finished, he handed it to her and patted the top of her head before heading off to home.

When reaching there, his step father was there to greet him.

**"Karn dear, would you help me with my clothing line? I'd really appreciate it."** the tall man spoke, his figure lean and skinny but tall. He was 7'0 and was pale as a ghost, with long white hair pulled in a low ponytail and lavender colored eyes.

**"Sure thing Dad!"** Karn chirped, but Leormon let out a bored tone.

**"Nooooo I don't want to dress in girly things!"** the lion like Digimon whined.

Karn simply chuckled and picked up the Digimon and set him on top of a chair, who boredly groaned and rolled on his back and lounged on the chair.

Several hours passed and Karn ended up, once again, in a girly outfit. He wore a pink dress with white lace lining that went down to the knees and silken gloves, leggings and a choker. As well as black heels. Leormon had passed out, after the first hour of whining.

Karn chuckled as his step father went to his study before picking up the pile of his regular clothes and curiously flipping his phone open. Checking his email, again he got this mysterious email by EBE but this one was different. Being titled with the subject as 'TIME' indicating that this email may indicate getting another Digimon. Odd, it was rare for people to get two Digimon, especially now that so many disappeared.

At the moment, the lion Digimon decided to jump on his head in examination to the email. A wide grin on his muzzle.

**"Awesome! I'll get brother or sister to practice with and play with!"** Leormon said eagerly.

Karn slightly smiled at the eagerness but was a little more cautious. **"Well it could be just a prank with a virus attached, Leo. After all, if it was another DigiEgg, they probably would of sent it to begin with."** the short teen suggested.

**"This coming from the guy who looks exactly like some girl right now."** Leormon said ironically before grinning as he reached a claw out and pressed the enter button on the phone.

Karn blinked but it was too late as the email open and his phone glowed a golden color, burning his hand and forcing him to drop it. 

**"You okay?"** Leormon asked worriedly, but Karn simply nodded before picking up his phone... That didn't seem to be a phone anymore.

But a actual Digivice! The real thing!

However, the world around him seemed to fade away, and he fell into unconsciousness.
