15 The Warriors from the Land of the Raising Sun

" Wake up, you're peeing yourself! " Said Azrael from within Jacob.

Jacob immediately stood up on his bed, and saw that he did not pee himself.

Mordred, Tom, Amir and Loholt all just looked at Jacob, and all Jacob could hear inside his mind, was Azrael laughing.

Madoc and Jacob were once again, on one of their walks through a forest near Camelot.

" Is that really true? " Said Madoc.

" Yeah. Me and Mordred met Klare a week ago. When a giant monster with white fur was chasing us. Luckily we were able to beat the monster, and ever since then. Mordred and Klare seem very close " Said Jacob

Suddenly it was like the forest started to sing.

"Master do you feel that? "

" Yeah. The wind feels warm, and yet it feels dangerous "

Jacob and Madoc looked ahead (the road they were standing on) and saw two men walking towards them.

Madoc looked at the two men, and said

" Foreigners "

The two men now stood face to face with Madoc and Jacob.

" Ohm. Are you two lost or something? " Said Jacob.

The two men just looked at Jacob and Madoc, then Madoc quickly pulled out his dragonexcalibur, and blocked an attack from one of the men, which also pushed him backwards.

" Master!! " yelled Jacob.

" That was an excellent block. Quite impressive " Said the man who attacked Madoc.

" Now, now. Should we not introduce ourselves before attacking " Said the other man.

" You're right. My name is Miyamoto Musashi " Said the man who had attack Madoc.

" And my name is Sasaki Kojirou " Said the other man.

" I have never heard of those names before " Said Jacob.

" Miyamoto Musashi. Was a ronin, and while he was alive. He became a legend. Because of his skills with a sword. Sasaki Kojirou was also very skilled with a sword, and at times. Was considered Miyamoto Musashi's only rival. These two men are extremely deadly with a sword. So be very careful " Said Azrael from within Jacob.

" So I take it. That negotiations are out of the question " Said Madoc.

" Indeed. Hey Kojirou. You don't mind if I take on the Prince. Do you? " Said Musashi.

" I do not mind. Besides dealing with a child will not be any trouble " Said Kojirou and looked at Jacob.

Jacob immerderly pulled out his sword, and so did Kojirou.

" Jacob! " Said Madoc.

" Yes Master "

" I have complete faith in you " Said Madoc with a smile.

" Yes Master! "

" Well now. Since we are done with the small talk. Let us get on with the fight " Said Musashi, and charged at Madoc pushing him further into the forest.

Kojirou also charged at Jacob. Swinging his sword at Jacob, but Jacob was able to block each attack, and even push Kojirou back with his own attacks.

" What a surprise. You have some skill with the sword " Said Kojirou.

" And that is all thanks to my master. Who trains me every single day " Said Jacob with a smile.

" Hmm. It seem that I have to take this battle a little seriously " Said Kojirou who then took the stance he used to kill the swallows with.

" The hell is he doing " Said Jacob. and all Azrael had to say from within Jacob was

" WATCH OUT! "

Kojirou was now in front of Jacob, and in an instant swung his sword three times. Which made three huge wounds appear on Jacob's body, and from each wound. A huge amount of blood spilled out.

Jacob was also sent flying deep into the forest.

" That takes care of the brat " Said Kojirou.

Madoc and Musashi saw what had happened.

" Well now. I hope that there is no hard feelings between us " Said Musashi.

Madoc grinded his teeth, and attacked Musashi.

" It seems that I can rest until Musashi is finish " Said Kojirou.

Suddenly the ground started to shake, and all the animals from within the forest, ran away in a panic.

" What the hell is happening? " Said Kojirou.

Kojirou then looked up, and saw a giant dragon starting to overshadow him.

Jacob had once again transformed into a dragon, and was now five times larger than any tree in the forest, and the dragon was just glaring at Kojirou, with its glowing red eyes.

" Well now. It seems that I have a new opponent. Hey Musashi do you mind if we switch? " Said Kojirou while looking at the massive dragon in front of him.

" I humbly decline. Just use the technique you used to kill the swallows with " Said Musashi.

" You idiot. Does this look like a swallow to you, than again. It would be a good opportunity to see if the technique works, on others, then just swallows " said Kojirou.

Kojirou than used the technique on the dragon, and it had no effect whatsoever.

" Well now. That is truly unfortunate " Said Kojirou.

Jacob now a dragon once again. Made his right hand into a fist, and punched straight down on Kojirou. Jacob's punch had so much force. That it not only crushed Kojirou's body, but the earth was cracked open.

Kojirou laid there on the ground. His whole body crushed, and then Kojirou slowly started to turn into dust.

Steam came off Jacob's dragon body, and then. The dragon started to become smaller and smaller. Until Madoc and Musashi could no longer see it.

" Well that was unfortunate. Do you have any idea where that dragon came from? " Said Musashi.

" Apparently there are lots of dragons nest around here "

" I see "

Musashi yet again. Charged at Madoc. Going in for the kill.

Madoc stood his ground, and took Musashi's attack head on.

The two of them exchanged blows.

Musashi now stood behind Madoc, with his back turned to Madoc.

Madoc put his dragonexcalibur back into its sheath, and when the clicking sound could be heard from the dragonexcalibur completely returning to its sheath.

Musashi than coughed out some blood, and then a large wound appeared on his chest.

" You were able to block my attack, and then counter with one of your own, within a single breath. You truly are a skilled knight, and for that you have my respect " Said Musashi.

Musashi then turned into dust.

Madoc then looked around, and said, worried " Jacob, where are you? "

Jacob come running towards Madoc, with his wounds now all healed.

Madoc looked at Jacob, and said " How in the world are your wounds all healed? "

" Well…. I landed in another dragon nest, and apparently the dragon took pity on me, and with a lick. Healed all my wounds " Said Jacob with a nervous smile on his face.

" Hmm. It seems we have a guardian dragon watching over us both " Said Madoc.

" Well. You're technically not wrong about that " Said Jacob quietly to himself.

" Did you say something? "

" I said. Let us return to Camelot, and tell everyone about our new adventure "

And so, both of them walked back towards Camelot.

" So Azrael how did it feel being inside a dragon? " Said Jacob.

" I must say. That I now know how it feels, being inside the belly of the beast " Said Azrael.

Later.

Lug could be seen. Staring at a sakura tree. Near the Morrigan's Cave.
