And So It Begins
Season 1, Episode 01
summary written by Rachel
Tai's the narrator and starts: "That's home. Planet Earth. But I'm not
sure that's where I am right now. Okay, let me back up a little. It all started
when the climate got completely out of control. The rain forest dried up, and
places that got hot got super cold. I didn't know anything about this because
I was at camp." We see a chocolate wave crash onto the shore. The scene
changes to Tai at summer camp on a tree branch sleeping. "Until it started
to snow in the middle of July." Snow falls on Tai, waking him up.
"You won't believe what happenned to me and six other kids. By the way,
my name's Tai. Taichi 'Tai' Kamiya" appears on the screen. Sora appears
on the screen. Underneath it says "Sora Tackenouchi." Matt appears
on the screen. "Yamato 'Matt' Ishida." Izzy appears. "Koushiro
'Izzy' Izumi." We see Mimi. "Mimi Tachikawa." T.K., Matt's little
brother, is introduced. "Takeru 'T.K.' Takaishi." Joe is seen. "Joe
Kido."
Something that looks kind of like an aurora is in the sky. A circle in the sky
makes beams of light fall at the children and devices float towards them. Each
person grabs their device. Suddenly, a huge wall/wave swallows the children.
Tai wakes up and sees a sort of pink marshmallow with ears, eyes, and a mouth
looking at him. The pink thing introduces himself as Koromon. Izzy finds him
and another little pink thing is following him. He introduces himself as Motimon.
Koromon & Motimon says that they're in the DigiWorld. Tai climbs a tree in
order to get a better look at where he is through his miniature telescope. He
realizes he's on an island. He sees a big red bug flying towards him. Koromon
hops up there and they both duck in order to avoid the bug. Motimon introduces
him as Kuwagamon, a bad digimon.
Koromon leaps off the tree and blows pink bubble towards Kuwagamon. It annoys
him, but doesn't even scratch him. Motimon leads them to a tree and jumps inside
it. The others follow suit. They find them selves in a hollow, tube like metal
cylinder with the top open. They feel Kuwagamon coming and duck.
Sora's voice interruptes them. She has a little radish like pink(again!)thing
with her. She presents Yokomon to them. Then, a white and pink creature on four
legs comes running out of the bushes. T.K. runs after him. He calls him Tokomon.
Right behind him is Matt, carrying a orange and white creature with a horn on
his head. Matt says the creature's name is Tsunomon. Finally, Joe comes racing
in with a brown, white, and orange creature floating behind him. The creature
introduces himself as Bukamon. All the creatures introduce themselves as Digimon:
digital monsters. They list some characteristics of digimon: cute, loyal, beautiful
hair, no hair at all, funny, and adorable.
When everybody introduces themselves, Mimi is found missing. When she screams,
everybody runs in the direction of the sound. She is seen running and a digimon
is seen running right behind her. They try to tell her that the digimon are very
friendly, but soon they realize she's running from Kuwagamon. He passes right
over them when they duck, and Mimi's digimon introduces herself as Palmon.
Kuwagamon appears again and they keep on running. They find themselves on the
edge of a cliff, below them is a river, but no way down. All the digimon fight
Kuwagamon, but it's no use. Then their devices beep, and lights appear in the
sky. Koromon digivolves to Agumon, Yokomon digivolves to Biyomon, Motimon digivolves
to Tentomon, Tsunomon digivolves to Gabumon, Tokomon digivolves to Patamon, Bukamon
digivolves to Gomamon, and Tanemon digivolves to Palmon. Palmon's Poison Ivy,
Patamon's Boom Bubble, Tentomon's Super Shocker, Agumon's Pepper Breath, Gabumon's
Blue Blaster, Biyomon's Spiral Twister, and Gomamon trips Kuwagamon. They fire
together(except Gomamon) and defeat him. They were rejoicing when Kuwagamon comes
out and splits the cliff, so they fall into the river. Tai wraps it up: So, just
when we meet some pretty cool friends, we all take a plunge, never to see each
other again? I don't think so. But find out next time on Digimon: Digital Monsters
