Ryuji was walking through the Western Flatlands with Yoshihiro perched on his right shoulder. Like always the little Calumon was keeping an ear out for trouble. They were looking for four digimon, three Floramon and one Mushroomon, that went missing from Rustport Town a few nights ago. They decided to look for them after seeing a newspaper mentioning the lost digimon.
After asking around they heard about a traveling Kunemon merchant that just narrowly escaped capture by a small group of slave traders. When they asked the little insect digimon about the attack she said they tried to drag her toward the Ancient Ruins. Then Ryuji and Yoshihiro started making their way quietly to the Ancient Ruins on foot. After hours of travel the ruins were in sight. "Maybe we should get a small vehicle of some kind, Yoshihiro. That would make travel much easier." Ryuji said as he ducked behind a large rock and out of the sun.
"That and maybe you should also bring a short sleeve shirt when we travel so you don't overheat in the Digital World's warmer areas." Yoshihiro replied as he peaked around the rock his ears listening for the slave traders.
Wiping sweat from his brow, Ryuji said in agreement "You have a point there, Yoshihiro." Then it came to him that he didn't have a plan to free the slaves so he looked at Yoshihiro asked "Do you have any ideas on how we are gonna free the slaves, Yoshihiro?"
Yoshihiro shuffled back completely behind the rock and placed a paw on his chin tapping it in thought. Suddenly an idea came to his mind but he was hesitant to share it because he didn't want to make his tamer uncomfortable. After a few more moments, Yoshihiro said "I have an idea but I'm not sure if you'll feel comfortable with the idea."
"What do you mean, Yoshihiro? How would this idea make me feel uncomfortable?" Ryuji asked with a look of confusion on his face.
"I was thinking we could infiltrate the camp by having you pose as a slave I'm trying to sell. I didn't want to bring it up because you still occasionally have nightmares about when Demidevimon took you hostage."
"Thanks for trying not to upset me Yoshihiro but pretending to be a captive is different from actually being one and unless you plan to digivolve, I don't see how you could pose as a slave trader. I mean no offense, Yoshihiro, you are small and cuddly so even rookie digimon don't take you seriously as the martial artist you are." Ryuji stated calmly.
The little Calumon was relieved that Ryuji seemed to be okay with his plan and he said "I was planning on armor digivolving to SamuraiCalumon so the cute and cuddly problem would be solved."
Ryuji thought of his D-Syncro, which was a modified D3 that he obtained last time he was at NEXUS headquarters, and said "What about a certain digivice of mine? Surely they would search me unless you show it to them first."
"I was thinking the same thing, Ryuji. Then I'll sneak it back into the pocket of your hoodie so your D-Syncro doesn't fall into the wrong hands."
Ryuji nodded and brought out his D-Syncro and Yoshihiro said "Calumon digivolve to Calumon(Rookie Form)."
Holding his D-Syncro out Ryuji said "Alright, Yoshihiro, Digi Armor Energize!"
"Calumon(Rookie Form) armor digivolve to SamuraiCalumon." The now five foot tall anthropomorphic samurai approached his tamer and Ryuji handed his digivice to Yoshihiro. Yoshihiro then hooked it to the sheathe of his katana before tucking his necklace into his armor. "Now, Ryuji, I need you to play along."
"I can do that, Yoshihiro. I just hope this plan of yours works. Maybe next time we should plan things out ahead." Ryuji said with a smile as Yoshihiro moved in behind his tamer. He then grabbed Ryuji's wrists in a restraining hold that was surprisingly strong for a digimon eleven inches shorter than his tamer. He then firmly shoved Ryuji with the tamer playing along by struggling in the SamuraiCalumon's grip.
The two of them made their way to the ruins and a bird man digimon ran up to them and before they were in range, Yoshihiro whispered "Looks like a Buraimon. This digimon would have little trouble slicing humans up. Let me handle the talking. Struggle, yes, but do nothing else." Ryuji answered with a brief bob of his head indicating that he understood.
Buraimon came up to them with one of his hands gripping the hilt of one of his twin swords before he growled "Who are you? What are you doing out here?"
"I am SamuraiCalumon and I only came here to sell this human." Yoshihiro answered plainly.
"SamuraiCalumon? I had no idea that Calumon were able to digivolve." Buraimon said as he released his grip on his sword. "How did you get ahold of a human anyway?"
At the statement that Buraimon had no idea that Calumon could digivolve, Yoshihiro replied "Believe me I was as surprised as you the first time it happened. I am now a champion level digimon." Technically he was an armor champion but he wasn't gonna split hairs over this minor detail. "As for how I got this human, I defeated his partner digimon and took this human captive. Even I know humans are valuable on the Digital World Slave Market."
"Indeed they are." Buraimon said as he moved closer to Ryuji and took ahold of the human's chin forcing the tamer to look him in the eyes. Ryuji tried to pull his chin free but the grip was too strong. Yoshihiro had to resist the urge to leap to protect his tamer but stayed where he was still holding Ryuji by the wrists. "He seems to be in good condition. Some digimon are rather violent with humans they capture."
"Why digimon beat the slaves they capture is lost on me. If they can't work, no one will buy them. That and if the injuries are bad enough that is money and effort on obtaining them wasted if they have to be treated for severe injuries." Yoshihiro said coldly which made Ryuji uneasy. He had no idea his partner's voice could take that uncomfortable tone.
Finally, Buraimon let go of Ryuji's chin after what felt like an eternity to the tamer even though it was a few minutes at most. Then Buraimon turned slightly away from Ryuji and Yoshihiro and whistled. When he did this, Yoshihiro let go of one of Ryuji's wrists just long enough to slip his tamer's digivice back in his pocket. By the time the Buraimon's associates, a pair of Goblimon, arrived Yoshihiro had long reaffirmed his grip on Ryuji's wrists. The Goblimon were both holding shackles in one hand and their clubs in the other. The sight caused Ryuji to struggle intensely despite the fact that Yoshihiro was holding his wrists. If he didn't calm down he was gonna hurt himself so Yoshihiro jerked his tamer slightly backward roughly and quietly whispered "You'll hurt yourself if you continue, Ryuji. Relax I'm here and won't let them harm you."
The Buraimon hadn't heard the words whispered by Yoshihiro as he gave his orders to the Goblimon. "Take this human and lock him up with the other slaves." Buraimon took a firm hold of Ryuji and Yoshihiro let go of his tamer. Buraimon then grabbed Ryuji's backpack and said "Human, remove this backpack and make no attempt to run or you will be severely punished when I catch you."
Though it was unlikely Ryuji would be beaten, judging by what Buraimon earlier implied, Yoshihiro watched as his tamer wasn't eager to anger the bird man as his arm was released. Ryuji removed his backpack and placed it on the ground as both the Goblimon came toward him and placed their clubs on the ground. One attached shackles around his ankles while the other one fastened them around his wrists. With the restraints in place the two rookies retrieved their clubs and shoved Ryuji in the direction of the other captives. Buraimon then handed Yoshihiro a fat sack of bits before he said "This human will be worth quite a lot and considering you have dealt with his partner, I can assume there will be no rescue on the way."
Not breaking his façade, Yoshihiro replied "You could say that. Now I must be on my way. If I find other potential slaves to sell you I'll be sure to keep an ear out for you." With that Yoshihiro started walking away from the camp but the minute Buraimon turned his back the SamuraiCalumon known as Yoshihiro headed in the direction Ryuji was taken by floating in the air.
Meanwhile, the two Goblimon had hearded Ryuji toward a large black tent and shoved him inside. Inside the tent was a large cage and inside were the three Floramon and the Mushroomon that went missing. They were also shackled in the same manner as he was. One of the Goblimon unlocked the cage and opened it while the other shoved him toward the open cage before pointing at it. Ryuji sighed and climbed inside without a word before the door of the cage slammed shut and the sound of a lock was heard. The two Goblimon stepped out of the tent and started walking away from the captives inside.
By then Yoshihiro had floated over to the tent and noticed the Goblimon walking away with not even one of them staying to guard. That made him wonder if Buraimon was the only intelligent digimon he was up against but he would take any advantage he could get as he landed and slipped quietly inside the tent. Ryuji spotted Yoshihiro and excitedly said "Yoshihiro!"
Before his tamer could say anymore, Yoshihiro put a finger to his lips and said "Shh, quiet. Buraimon might send his goons this way soon or he might come here himself. Either way I have to get you all out of that cage before all hell breaks loose." Looks like being in the Human World was having an interesting effect on Yoshihiro's language since this was the dirtiest thing he had ever said yet. Quietly Yoshihiro drew his katana from its sheath as the crystal matrix on his forehead glowed as well as his sword. Then he quietly sliced the lock off the cage and opened it. "Okay everyone, exit one by one and I'll use my sword to destroy those shackles binding you." Ryuji politely let the digimon out first as Yoshihiro freed them as he said he would. Then Ryuji came out of the cage and Yoshihiro freed his tamer from his shackles.
"I think we should stick close on our way out. There only seem to be three of them and I think we can handle them only by sticking together." Ryuji said as he and Yoshihiro stepped out of the tent one right after the other. The freed captives followed close behind in a nervous cluster.
It seemed the term 'All Hell Breaks Loose' would prove quite true for only minutes later the two Goblimon set upon them whooping and yelling while swinging their clubs. Before Yoshihiro could draw his sword again the Floramon attacked the two loud goblins with Rain of Pollen. The spores caused the two Goblimon to howl in pain as Yoshihiro knocked the weakened rookies out in a single punch each. It seemed things would only get worse as Buraimon had dove in from the sky and landed in front of them. Yoshihiro nudged Ryuji behind him and drew his katana once again. "So it was a trick to sneak into my camp to free the slaves. That must make you the boy's partner or am I wrong, SamuraiCalumon?"
"You're not wrong, Buraimon." Yoshihiro said as his katana glowed with the same vigor as his crystal matrix. He then said "And the name is Yoshihiro. In my tamer's native language it means widespread goodness."
"Widespread goodness? Interesting. Let's see if you are skilled enough to handle me in battle then, Yoshihiro!" Buraimon said as he flew toward Yoshihiro and he was met halfway as the SamuraiCalumon floated up to meet him.
Clutching one sword in each hand, Buraimon flew swiftly at Yoshihiro while said SamuraiCalumon braced for the attack by clutching his glowing katana in both hands. The two swords wielding digimon's blades met in mid air with the skill and artistry of an aerial dance. Unfortunately, Yoshihiro was on the defensive. Not only could he not fly like Buraimon could but he only had one sword giving him no opening to reach the bird man after blocking. His only hope was if Buraimon wore out but at the way things were going that was not likely to happen any time soon.
From the ground, Ryuji noticed this too but there was little he could do to help. He couldn't even throw rocks at Buraimon sense there seemed to be none around. Even though there was sand it didn't do him any good unless Buraimon came down to the ground. "Looks like you're unsuited for aerial combat, Yoshihiro. Not only can you not fly but you appear to be weakening as well. Time to wrap this up." Ryuji's heart raced as Buraimon flew around Yoshihiro with surprising speed and slashed Yoshihiro with both his blades. Yoshihiro cried in pain as he dedigivolved back into his in-training form and hit the sand in an unconscious heap.
"Yoshihiro!" Ryuji yelled as he dashed to where his partner fell before kneeling down and gently scooping him up into his arms. Though Yoshihiro was still alive he didn't make a sound.
Buraimon landed and approached the still kneeling tamer as he said "Your partner is courageous, I'll give him that much. If you want him to live you will surrender right now." To emphasize his point, Buraimon pointed one of his deadly swords at Ryuji's face. Tears trickled from Ryuji's blue eyes as he glanced at Yoshihiro's unconscious form. He felt at a loss on what to do. He knew he had no chance against Buraimon without Yoshihiro's help. "Well, boy, what is your decision?"
Before Ryuji could say anything Buraimon was set upon by three Rain of Pollen attacks from the Floramon and Mushroomon's Fungus Cruncher which sent an exploding mushroom into the bird man digimon's face. It seemed the battle with Yoshihiro had tired out Buraimon more than Ryuji thought as he scrambled backward and got to his feet still clutching Yoshihiro in his arms. Fortunately, the Buraimon decided to fly away instead of continue the fight.
After recovering his backpack he guided the missing digimon back to Rustport Town and gave the sheriff the money Buraimon had handed to Yoshihiro. Shortly after that Ryuji carried Yoshihiro to the nearest Trailmon heading for the Human World.
