"Tatsou what's wrong?" Echo asked as she came over to him
"Nothing I'm going to and walk for a minute." Tatsou said as he went out the door
Duncan came out of the room.
"Hey where did Tatsou go?" he asked as he came over
"Out for a walk." Echo said
"Well I'm going to." Duncan said as he ran out the door
"Damn why does everyone get hurt because of me." Tatsou said as he hit a tree
"Tatsou I found you!" Duncan yelled as he came up to him
"Duncan why are you out here?" Tatsou asked
"Well it's better to go with friends then alone." Duncan said
"It's dangerous to stay around me." Tatsou said
"Doesn't matter to me." Duncan said
"Alright then." Tatsou said
"I need to ask you something." Duncan said
"Yes what is it?" Tatsou asked
"What was your past like?" Duncan asked
"A very terrible one." Tatsou said
"What do you mean?" Duncan asked
"Every time I come in contact with someone that I either mean to protect either gets hurt or dies." Tatsou said
"Haku asked me a while back about your past he wanted to know." Duncan said
"Well it's hasn't been a good one." Tatsou said
"What do you mean?" Duncan asked
Tatsou came up to Duncan's hear and whispered in it but it was a different language.
"What did you say?" Duncan asked
"Haku would know." Tatsou said
"Tatsou your one strange human aren't you." Haku said
"Tatsou what are you hiding?" Duncan asked
"Well let me start at the beginning." Tatsou said
"Alright." Duncan said
"There was a girl named Tesca that I meet about 20 years ago, she was about 15 at that time." Tatsou said as he came up to his ear and said. "She was Flame's mother."
"Wait does Flame even know this?" Duncan asked
"No but let me continue." Tatsou said as he backed up
"Ok." Duncan said
"I was in my dragon form flying around and I guess I passed out because I haven't had sleep for a while." Tatsou said
Past.
Tesca was looking up in the sky and Tatsou falling in his dragon form.
"What's that?" Tesca said as she went to where he was
Tatsou had taken down at least four trees down. She got there and noticed him still in his dragon form.
"So cool!" she yelled as she came up and touched his nose
"Tesca where are you…" someone said as they came out and noticed Tatsou
"Look a dragon." Tesca said as she still had her hand on Tatsou's nose and looked at the person
Then she felt a strong wind.
"Uh Tesca you might want to move." the person said
"Why?" Tesca asked
"Look behind you." the person said
Tesca looked back and Tatsou was looking at her.
"Oh!" she said as she fell to the ground
Then she got up and went beside the person.
"Holy and here I thought it was dead." the person said
Tesca started walking back up to Tatsou.
"What do you want human?" Tatsou asked
"Well the name's Tesca not human." Tesca said
"Alright Tesca." Tatsou said then his stomach growled
"Hey are you hungry?" Tesca asked
"Yes I guess you can call it that." Tatsou said as he changed to his human form
"It's a person." Tesca said
"What did you think I was." Tatsou said
Tesca came up to him and grabbed hold of his face.
"You are human." Tesca said as she let go of him
"I'm just...a bit...hungry." Tatsou said as he passed out on the ground
"What did he say?" the person asked
"He's hungry." Tesca said
"So what do we do with him?" the person said as he came over
"Take him home I guess." Tesca said
"Alright but if we get eaten it's your fault." the person said
"Alright." Tesca said
They took Tatsou to a house and put him down on a bed.
"So what should we do?" the person asked
"Feed him." Tesca said
A bit later Tatsou woke up.
"So a house been so long since I've been in one." he said as he came out of the room
"Your awake." Tesca said as she looked at him
"Don't eat us." the person said
"Alright let me tell you this if I wanted to eat you, you wouldn't be standing here right now." Tatsou said
Tatsou's stomach growled.
"Well come on time to fill you up." Tesca said
"Thank you." Tatsou said
They went to a room and there was food on a table.
"Well go and eat." Tesca said as she pointed to the table
"Alright." Tatsou said as he sat down
Then he started inhaling the food.
"Are you that hungry?" Tesca asked
"Yes I am." Tatsou said. "And by the way are you two related?"
"No I'm his girlfriend." Tesca said. "And here soon we will be leave so I can see his parents so when we leave you can do what you want."
"Come on let's go Tesca." the person said as he walked out the door
"Tesca that's you name? Well mine is Tatsou." Tatsou said
"Well see you Tatsou." Tesca said as she went out the door
"Then nine years later she came back and she was 26 years old." Tatsou said
"Do you still think he is still here?" Tesca asked
"Maybe he's dead." the person said
They opened up the door and saw Tatsou sleeping at the table.
"Holy hell he's still alive for nine years." the person said
Tatsou lifted up his head and looked at them.
"Hey Tatsou." Tesca said
Tatsou got up and went to her.
"What is that?" Tatsou asked as he came up to her and poked her stomach
"Tatsou I'm pregnant and married." Tesca said
"What!" Tatsou said
"Yes." Tesca said
One month later Flame was born and another month later her husband died.
"Hey Tatsou if something ever happens to me will you take care of Flame." Tesca said
"What he's your son." Tatsou said
"I know but if anything does happen to me he will be ok." Tesca said
Then there was a knock at the door and Tesca came and looked out the window.
"Tatsou I think you better leave and take Flame with you." Tesca said
"Why?" Tatsou asked
"The eradicators are here and they might be here for you so go while you still have the chance." Tesca said
"No you need to come with me." Tatsou said as he went up to her
Tesca came over to Flame and picked him up.
"Here now go." Tesca said as she gave him Flame
"Alright fine." Tatsou said
"I will be a distraction." Tesca said
"Alright goodbye." Tatsou said as he started heading out the back door
Tesca went and opened up the door.
"Hello we should've come here nine years earlier but we didn't noticed your home here." the leader said
"That's alright." Tesca said
Tatsou went out the back door and changed to his dragon and held Flame in his hand as he flew.
"Right there." someone yelled as they pointed to Tatsou
"Your not going to touch them." Tesca said as she held her hand out and a big fire sword came out then she stabbed it into the ground then the ground turned to fire
She was killed a few moments later. Tatsou flew to the town and altered everyone's memories and made fake parents for Flame.
"After that I left then I was caught then that's how we ended up here I also gave him the green stone when he was a kid." Tatsou said
"Why did you do that?" Duncan asked
"To keep him safe for a bit." Tatsou said
"Wait that makes you an adoptive brother or father." Duncan said
"If you want to call it that." Tatsou said
"Please just go and tell Flame about this will you about his mom." Duncan said
"Hey you two come on." Anna yelled as she came outside
Flame was right behind her.
"Flame can you come here?" Tatsou asked
"Alright." Flame said as he walked over to him
"Come on Anna let's go." Duncan said as they went in
"I know who your mom is Flame." Tatsou said
"Really!" Flame yelled
Tatsou quickly bowed his head down and stayed there.
"Hey what are you doing?" Flame asked
"I'm sorry for lying to you." Tatsou said as he was crying
"What do you mean?" Flame said as he came over and looked down on him
Tatsou lifted up his head.
"She died because of me." Tatsou said
"What do you mean?" Flame asked
"She died so I could leave with you." Tatsou said
Flame came up to him and hugged him then said "It's alright I'm here because of you."
"Thank you now let's go inside." Tatsou said as they both went in
