Aaron was running; he had already gotten pretty far with his increased speed and the fact that he was travelling on the wave road, the fastest form of transportation in the world. Aaron was running with no clear destination in mind, and he was in a great deal of pain from his battle injuries and the overwhelming power of the Primal Card.
Aaron looked down from the wave road and saw a large mountain range with a small village and several caves; it was snowing outside. Aaron knew that the Satella Police would probably be looking for him by now, and the caves seemed like a good place to hide, so Aaron leapt from the wave road and landed at the entrance to one of the caves. Aaron walked in to the cave and roared in pain as several waves of noise were released from him.
"I think I over did it." Aaron mumbled as he collapsed and his wave change was forced to end.
Stalker immediately materialized from Aaron's Hunter. "You okay buddy?" He asked rubbing Aaron with his paw and getting little response.
"Don't worry about me. I'll be fine." Aaron mumbled as he passed out due to exhaustion. Stalker hated when Aaron said things like that because it usually meant that Aaron was not fine. Stalker put his paw on Aaron's forehead; it was hot.
"The kid has a fever. I need to get him some help whether he wants it or not." Stalker thought lifting Aaron on to his back who was still unconscious. Stalker cared deeply for his partner, and he was going to make sure that Aaron would be okay. Aaron would have done the same for Stalker; Aaron always put Stalker before himself even when Aaron's life was on the line.
Stalker carried Aaron on his back until he got to the village. People wearing long fur cloaks stared at Stalker as he walked to the center of the village and roared to get their attention. He laid Aaron down in the snow and retreated in to Aaron's Hunter tired from the long trek. Several people then crowded around Aaron; all of them seemed to be intrigued by this mysterious outsider appearing in their village.
Someone cleared their way through the crowd and gave a few commands to a few people, and Aaron was carried off by several of the villagers; Stalker remained vigilant through Aaron's hunter because he was unsure of what they might do to Aaron.
