Digimon Fan Fiction ❯ The Forgotten Tamer ❯ Rage of the Dragon's Flame ( Chapter 6 )

Chapter Six

 

The battle for getting to the Trailmon was intense for Tora. He never really had to fight anyone until today and to be honest; he was sort of having fun. He was even more excited because he was fighting beside one of his favorite Digimon.

 

“What are you staring at Tora?” Leomon asked as they were waiting for an opening to escape.

 

“Nothing, it's just that I never thought I would get to see a `Leomon'.” Tora blushed from seeing Leomon's intensity for the situation.

 

“Well please, stop it.” Leomon said sternly. “It's very distracting and now is not the time for showing affection.”

 

Tora instantly stopped blushing and focused. “Your right, how many hunters are at the front entrance?”

 

“There are none right now. It seems we may have lucked out.” Leomon gave a sigh of relief

 

“Then now would be a good time to get to the Trailmon.” Tora grabbed Leomon by the hand and they started to run. Leomon was right, they did luck out and before long they were standing in front of the sleeping Trailmon.

 

“How this Trailmon sleep when there is so much commotion?” Leomon questioned in amazement.

 

“Who said I was sleeping, I'm pretending so that the Hunters don't hurt me.” The Trailmon replied with a bold and youthful voice. “And what's a smart Leomon like you, hanging out with one of the most dangerous hunters out there?”

 

“I am a Hunter no more Trailmon.” Tora raised his hand to Trailmon. Just as this was being done, a small barcode appeared on Trailmon's forehead. “I hear by release you from your bonds; you are no longer a slave for the hunters.” The barcode vanished.

 

“This is amazing; I never thought I'd see the day that a Hunter would be kind to a Digimon.” Trailmon smiled at Tora. “As of this day forward I am yours, Master.”

 

“Please don't call me that. Just address me as Tora.” Tora smiled back at Trailmon then looked at Leomon. “Let's get out of here.”

 

“I don't think so, `Little Tiger'!” Yelled a fierce and powerful voice. “Simply amazing Tora. I never thought you would cause so much trouble.”

 

“Oh shit!” Trailmon screamed. “Another Blade of Judgment!”

 

Leomon was about to draw his sword when Tora stepped forward. “Blaze, please don't do this koibito.”

 

“You are still willing to call me your lover after all this.” Blaze smiled but he switched back to a serious face. “I am so flattered; but you're too late!” He then took a sphere from his robe and threw it in to the air. The sphere instantly shattered and a ring of fire surrounded Blaze and Tora. “Things are going to `Burn Baby'!”

 

Tora stayed calm, and drew his sword. And then threw of his robe revealing a new and improved Tora. He wasn't the same chubby Japanese boy that entered the temples. He was now standing at a 5'7”; wearing a black spandex tank top that showed off his rippling six pack. Not only was his appearance surprising but he was also hiding a second sword under his robe. A ninja sword.

 

“What, two swords?” Blaze had no time to look at his ex-lover in awe. He drew his own two swords from his robes and combined their hilts together forming a swallow blade. He looked up at Tora and smirked. “Come here, I'll make it all stop.” Blaze rushed to Tora spinning the swallow blade above his head and swung the blade down on Tora's head.

 

Tora stopped the attack with the ninja sword and quickly countered with his katana. Blaze jumped back with Tora swiftly following closely behind him. “I thought you don't use swords?” Tora asked as he started on an all out attack.

 

Blaze had no choice but to defend until he saw an opening. The battle was intense and it seemed neither fighter was going to let up. Blaze was still defending with all his might, dodging Tora quick and elegant techniques. When Tora finally jumped back and took a deep breathe. Blaze saw an opening and detached the swallow blade back in to two. He jumped and lunged at Tora with all his fury. The blades spontaneously burst in to flames. “Have a taste of my, `Dragon Inferno'!”

 

Tora blinked and stepped to the side effortlessly. He saw the look on Blaze's face was the looks of being shocked and frightened. “Enough is enough Blaze Xero!” Tora preformed a jumping spin kick. With prefect timing, his foot connected to Blaze's face sending him to the ground. The ring of fire dispersed and Leomon ran to Tora's side.

 

“Are you alright Tora?” Leomon placed his hand on Tora's shoulder.

 

Tora breathed a sigh of relief. “I'm fine Leomon.” He walked to Blaze who was kneeling on the ground in pain. Tora stared at Blaze and instantly remembered the good times they had. He then realized he couldn't kill Blaze. “Let's meet again, Blaze.”

 

“Yeah; let's meet again, fighting for the good side.” Blaze smiled and stood up.

 

Tora nodded and went to Leomon's side. “Yeah, I'll be waiting.”

 

Blaze smiled. “Silly, just because you're on the good side.”

 

“I am sorry to hear you say that Blaze.” An a ominous voice called out.

 

“Oh fuck, it's Master Genai.” Blaze got up and stood at attention.

 

“Oh how your tone changes.” Genai appeared in a flash of light, smiling with a dark look in his eyes. “So, do you think you can leave without saying good bye Tora?”

 

“I don't need to say good bye to you!” Tora got back in his battle stance but Leomon's hand stopped him.

 

“Genai, you will die here!” Leomon drew his sword and attacked Genai.

 

Genai was calm as he dodged all of Leomon's attacks. “You have grown strong since the last time I saw you but you are still took week old friend.” Being bored of the situation, Genai raised his right hand and caught Leomon's sword. Leomon was shocked and tried to pull his sword back, but Genai was more powerful than what he appeared to be. “Do you want it back? Then here, take it back!” He pushed the blade to the side and moved his left hand in a fluent slashing motion towards Leomon. Leomon cried out in pain as he fell to the floor.

 

Tora rushed to Leomon's side in fear that he would lose his new found friend. “Leomon, are you alright?”

 

Leomon growled in agonizing pain. He felt his chest and to his surprise, he was bleeding. “By the Hammer of Zudomon, I am bleeding.”

 

“How can this be?” Tora started to tear up. He helped Leomon to his feet and they both rushed to get inside the carriage.

 

Trailmon was still in shock of seeing a Digimon bleed like a human that he almost didn't get the chance to warn Tora and Leomon that Genai was right behind. “Watch out you two!”

 

Just as they turned, Genai used his left hand again to strike the both of them. There was a flash of light followed by the sound of clashing swords. Tora thought it had to be Leomon stopping Genai's attack but when the blinding light vanished it was Blaze who stopped the attack. Genai jumped back and he wasn't pleased with what he saw.

 

“Tora, remember what you said about not dying and not failing your mission?” Blaze asked as he readied himself in his stance. “Well, I won't fail either. We will meet again on the same side, I promise. Now get out of here!” Blaze lunged at Genai and the two started fighting like fierce enemies.

 

Tora and Leomon complied with Blaze's order and got on the Trailmon. What out even needing the a command, Trailmon started at full speed. Tora looked out the window of the carriage and looked at Blaze while he was fighting. He saw Blaze turn back for a second and saw him mouth the words `I love you Tora'. Tora started to cry and he yelled out so Blaze could hopefully here him. “I love you too Blaze!” The two warriors were separated once again, holding on to the hope that they may both survive to see each other again.
