Chapter 2 Flashback of Tyger

Team seven was taking a break during training; during this time Tyger was looking at Ryoko and smiled. He thought back how they met and how did he came across the guardians that are sealed inside him:

Flashback twelve years ago

A three years old Tyger was meditating in his room, when he a small force that pull him into his subconscious. When he opens his eyes he saw a field of grass, he began walking for what like seems to him was miles, till he saw three very animals. One was a dragon that seems to stand on his hind legs with blue human-like skin with yellow eyes. Another one that was a bird made of fire with fiery red eyes. The last one was a tiger with white fur-black stripes, with white eyes. Tyger stood in awe of them because never before he seen animals like these before, with power that to radiate with an aura of power he never felt before. The Dragon felt a small presence and he look down and saw the boy and smile, "So our container has finally come meet," he said. The others two look to where the dragon was looking at and nodded and smile as well.

Tyger was in fear of the three. When the bird saw this it said with a divine voice, "Don't be afraid of us young one, we are not going to harm you and even if we want to we can't..."

Tyger slowly nodded and walk a little closer and ask, "Who are you three and where are we?"

The white tiger said, "We are in your mind young one. The human called us demons but we are really animals spirits with great power. We have been sealed inside you by your parents. Allow us to introduce ourselves; My name is White Blaze, A Guardian of the world and the tiger of legends."

"My name is Phoenix, also a guardian of the world, and the bird of legends." Phoenix said

"And my name is Dragoon, The knight king of the dragons and guardian of the world," the Dragon said smiling.

Tyger look at them and nodded and introduce himself as well, "My name is Tyger, human/demon/angel hybrid. Hoping that one day I can use my powers to protect other." Then he asks "If you three are guardians then why did my parents seal you in me?"

White blaze become smaller into 5 ft long white tiger and walk to him and say "A Man came to each of us, and ask us to killed you but we each decline because we all know your parents they..." "What you knew my parents?" "Yes we did but please let me finish Tyger. Anyway your parents was nice and kind, they help us protect the world quite a few times. But when we decline he uses some kind of powerful Technique that made us to do his bidding. During that time we destroyed 13 small villages and 8 towns till we were to where you were. We started to destroyed most of the town till your parents came and tried to get us to stop but we couldn't so they had no choice but to seal us inside you sacrificing their lives to protect you. Before they left this world told us to guide you so can protects others like they did. "

Phoenix with tears in her eyes said " We are the reason your parents are not with you now, we're sorry that your town was mostly destroy.

Tyger was in tears, he always wanted to know why they died but now he knows that died protecting him. He look at them and say" It ok, and I forgive you, but since you three are seal what going to happen?"

Dragoon says "The seal they use on us, allow our powers over time merge with your own. Between the ages of 21-25 you should have all of our powers and knowledge. our souls will still be inside you and be that way till the day you die or you find a way to release our souls."

Tyger nodded and White Blaze said, "Tyger since you are a hybrid you are bless with a stronger body, great healing, very high longevity but you are not immortal, and unusually high chakra levels. You can still die by head being cut off, or taking so many mortal wounds. So Tyger we will train you well you be one of the strongest in the world just remember that that is always someone as strong as or stronger than you. We will teach you into what we know about your bloodlines (his demon and angel form are bloodline). Once you get older we will each give you our summoning contract to summon each of our kind and us. But before we do this, I ask you this, are you willing to protect others, and are you willing to put your life on line? If you say yes to these questions we help you now what yours answer?"

Tyger just stood there and thought about for a moment, he thought about his parents and all the people that have died in his hometown, he thought people he may meet in future. Tyger look at them and said "Yes. Yes I will protect others in the name of good, I'll do this not only to honor my parents but, to you three as well."

All three Spirits look at him with pride in their eyes, "You got spunk and is very brave Tyger. Our training won't be easy though just remember that. Starting tomorrow your training begin but for now get some sleep," Dragoon said as he gently sent Tyger out.

Tyger open his eyes and thought about what just happen just before he went to sleep.

Flashback 11 years ago

Four years old, Tyger was running at top speed to a nearby village for help. His body was battered and bloody. He is carrying a young girl about his age, who is in the worst shape; she's bleeding all over, going in and out of consciousness. She has a big wound in her chest with a broken blade sticking out. He kept looking down at her and kept saying "Hang on! We're almost there!"

He reaches the gates with two guards there. They spot him and one of them asks, "State your name and business here in the Konoha?"

"I need to get this girl to the hospital she's been stabbed in the chest! I was walking till I saw a fight. Her parents were killed but one of the assailants attacked her, I came after him but ended up fighting the other three figures. So please let me in so I can take her to the hospital." Tyger begged/scream.

The other guards were about to say something till a man in his twenties with wild blonde hair wearing a white robe with flames on the bottom. "What is going on here? Can't you two see that they need help!?" asked the man while walking to Tyger and the girl.

The man kneeled down to eye level and said "Sorry for my guards. Come with me and I'll help you. With that, Tyger nodded and followed the man to the hospital.

Hospital 30 seconds later

"Nurse can you take this girl to the ER and call our best doctor ASAP" scream the blonde man.

"Yes Yondaime-sama" said the nurse as she took the girl from Tyger and rush to the ER.

The Yondaime look at the boy and said, "Come with me, let get you cleaned up"

Twenty minutes later Tyger was all cleaned up with new clothes, sitting in the Hokage office, talking to the Yondaime. Tyger explained to him what he saw, and how he got in the fight and how the girl got stabbed.

"So you took 4 guys on that attack the girl and her family?" The Yondaime ask. Tyger just nodded and the Yondaime smiled at Tyger and said, " Tyger you save her life and you should be proud of that, I know you're sad that you couldn't be able to save her parents, but I know that her parents are happy that she is alive."

Tyger just looks at him and nodded in agreement and asks, "Can we go see her?" Hokage nodded and left the office with Tyger.

When they got to the hospital a doctor met them and says, "She should have been dead but luckily she made it we got the blade and healed her wound and the rest of her injuries. She should be out for three to four days."

"Thank you doctor," The Yondaime said as the doctor walk off. "Tyger if you don't mind you can stay at my place till your friend gets better. My wife won't mind" Tyger nodded and left with him to go to his house.

2 days later

The girl woke up and look around to see Tyger staring at the window, she ask" you must be the one who brought me here?" Tyger looks around and smiles and said, "Yes I am. I'm surprise that you woke up now, the doctor say that you would be out for three to four days." as he sat down near her.

She looks at him and thought about her parents and asks him "Where are my parents? Are they ok?" Tyger look down and look back up at her with sad eyes "I'm so sorry but by the time I got there, they were already dead, and you were stabbed," he said with tears. As soon as she heard the news she started to cry saying "Now I'm all alone I have no one left!" she kept on crying till she felt a pair of arms around her she look up and saw Tyger with tears in his eyes and say "You are never alone. Want to know why?" She shook her head stating yes and he continued "Your parents are with you in spirit and plus I'm here, I can be your friend. I've been alone since my grandfather died 8 months ago. So I promise you I never leave you."

After twenty minutes they stop crying and dried their tears. Tyger introduced himself. "I'm sorry but I didn't introduce my self but I'm Tyger. I'm 4 years old," he said smiling.

The girl looks at him and did the same "My name's Ryoko and I'm 4 years old as well..."

After the introductions were done, Tyger finally had the courage to find out what was going on. "Why did those people attack you and your family Ryoko?" Ryoko just lied there and said, "I really don't know but at the same time I do. Tyger looked at her with a confused look on his face. Ryoko just giggled and continued. "What I mean is that we always lived among the humans in the village with no problems. There were times where some of them would make us feel like we didn't belong, but nothing ever escalated until now. I guess they finally decided to turn on us before we turned on them. So they attacked us. You see I'm not as normal as I look. Both my parents were demons and so am I."

Tyger finally replied with, "Hmm, really? Wow. That sucks how they did ya'll like that. But the demon part kinda doesn't surprise me lol."

"And why is that?" asked Ryoko.

"Cuz honestly there are no way that anything human could survive a deep cut like that and I'm 25 demon."

They both looked at each other and laughed." Something tells me this is going to be an interesting friendship," said Ryoko. Tyger responded with a smile. "Lol me too." With that they Tyger gave her a hug and left saying that he'll be there late to check up on her. She smiled and went to close her eyes.
