Okay. Without further a due, let`s continue.
Disclaimer: Apart from the names and plots, I don`t own anything.
It`s been 2 weeks since Nolan assaulted me near the waterfalls.
Though I followed Father everywhere, I still felt insecure. No matter what I did, I could somehow know or feel or detect that Nolan was there. No matter if I was training or having fun, I could still feel his presence.
But, somehow, in the midst of that presence, I could also see another. One that I have not known before.
It was with a comfortable and friendly aura. It meant no harm to me despite being a trespasser. It watches me and seems to know that I know it is there. It would disappear when I turn my head to the source. It would always be near Nolan`s.
This was one of the days which that aura appears.
I was out hunting with the small pack that Father chose. We went around and saw a Tropius nest in the herd. There were about 2 younglings and 7 adults. I was one of those to distract the adults.
I led one of the adults far from the nest where the younglings were. It kept using Bulldoze and Rock Smash, which are Rock-type and Fighting-type moves.
Of all the Tropius I had to choose, I had to choose one that had advantage moves. Just my luck!
It was about to use Earthquake as well, until I saw a flash of colors that were of a Pawniard`s, along with the flash of an X-Scissor being executed.
The Pawniard knelt on the ground when it landed, arms spread to the side. Its back was facing at me. Blood was on the blades. That was then the Tropius fell down, with a slit at its neck.
The Pawniard turned around. Its chest plates were obviously flat…and a bit well-built. 'It' was a male. Females` chest plates were a bit outwards. Males` were extremely flat.
Wow! This guy only used X-Scissor to take out a Tropius! He didn`t even have to break a sweat!
"Are you okay, Yowamushi?" His voice snapped me out of my trance.
"Wait! How`d you know my name?" I said, surprised.
"I`m the one that keeps watch of you, apart from Nolan."
"So, you`re the one that is stalking me! How long have you been stalking me? Who are you and what clan are you from?"
"Not exactly stalking, but whatever. I`ve kept 'stalking' you since the time when you hunted and killed the Zangoose 5 days ago. Impressive, I must say. Anyways, I am from the Nimble Crest Clan. My name is Makoto-Yuu, a name with mixed meaning. 'Makoto' means 'sincere' and 'honest'. 'Yuu' means 'gentle'. You should really thank me though. I stopped Nolan from assaulting you."
Before I could say anything anymore, we heard footsteps heading our way. He quickly scurried away. But before he was gone, I asked, "Will be seeing you again?" He nodded and went off.
"Hey, sis!" I turned around.
It was Victoria, another one called for the hunt. She looked at the Tropius lying on the ground. "Woah! We better call in some others to help us."
And just like that, we used our blades to make the sound for calling in for back up. Later, others arrived and we started carrying our prey.
While I was carrying the prey as well, I saw Makoto-Yuu standing on one of the trees`s branch. He was looking at me with a blank expression.
I nodded at him as thanks. He seemed to understand and nodded back. In a blink of an eye, he disappeared into thin air. I shook my head.
Tonight, we`re going to have a big feast.
Makoto-Yuu is the Bisharp Yowa will be falling in love with. R&R!
