Note from the authoress: Been a while hasn't it! Still, here's the next part!

Part 4

(Kharg and Paulette run around the town, trying in vain to find Bebedora. Darc and Delma are helping, searching around the outskirts of the town. )

DARC: (Slumps against a tree stump) This is hopeless. She could be anywhere!

DELMA: Why do you care anyway? What does it matter to us if she decides to kill the humans?

DARC: Well, for a start it would mean that they would try to destroy all Deimos.

DELMA: Your point? In case you hadn't realised, they hate us anyway, and we can easily kill them.

DARC: I guess.

(They continue to search the woods)

MEANWHILE

(Not very far away from where Darc and Delma are searching, Bebedora has gathered a group of monsters together)

VOICE: Now, my puppet, we will destroy Yewbell

BEBEDORA: Lemon and red, their souls will show the colours of pain.

MEANWHILE

(In Yewbell, Paulette and Kharg have stopped searching and are deep in conversation.)

KHARG: I still think it's possible she may have left town

PAULETTE: What do you plan to do? Chase her? She could be anywhere by now.

(Kharg is about to reply, when screams come from the other side of town)

MAN: MONSTERS!

(Paulette and Kharg exchange glances)

PAULETTE: Monsters? Here?

KHARG: We had better check this out.

(The two run towards the screams, coming from around the north end of town. They turn a corner and gasp at the sight before them. Bebedora is standing on a crate, eyes glowing red. Meanwhile, monsters are indeed in the area.)

PAULETTE: We have to help! (She runs up, swinging her knife) Lets see how you like this! SLING KNIFE! (Her dagger leaves her hand, striking two of the monsters who are lined up.)

KHARG: (Runs to join the battle) It is that Deimos! WIND SLASHER! (A gust of wind flies from his hand and hit's the monsters, finishing them. However, another has taken position behind him)

PAULETTE: Kharg! Look out!

(Kharg half turns, seeing the final monster lunge at him, he steps nimbly out of the way.)

KHARG: Missed me! (Paulette attacks the monster, Kharg joining her in a Dual attack. The final monster is defeated.)

BEBEDORA: I no longer see the Monsters souls.

(Darc and Delma run into town)

DARC: We heard shouts, is everything ok.

KHARG: (Points his sword at Bebedora) Damn Deimos! Your pal nearly killed someone!

DARC: (Turns and looks at Bebedora) Uh-Oh

VOICE: Come, puppet, we leave now!

BEBEDORA: Hee Hee Hee (She jumps from the crate and runs.)

KHARG: Damn! She got away. Now what do we do?

DELMA: She has come under the control of others before. Judging by the voice, she has again.

PAULETTE: (Looks curiously at Delma) And you stopped her before?

DELMA: (Nods)

PAULETTE: Let's head back to Nafia's house. I think we had better plan a strategy.
