Chapter 4
------
For the first time ever Lina and Air Jay stand face to face, none of them say a word, until Air Jay let's out a small chuckle.
"You that that is smart boy? Coming here and challenging the all mighty Air Jay? You must have some kind of a death wish, no?"
"BOY?" snapped Lina. "I'm a girl!"
Air Jay blinked in confusion "A girl?" then he turns to Kiko. "A girl?"
Kiko sniffed in the air. "Au AU, Grr au! (Yup she is a female human, she smells like a female human!)"
Air Jay turns back to Lina and looks at her chest. "NO!"he shirked"THIS IS HORRIBLE! A women should have enormous king size breaths, long dark hair, and a body that goes AUUUUU! She is so flat chest that it is horrible!" he continues to shirk like he has seen someone eating worms.
Every one look at Air Jay with a sweat drop, but Lina looks at him like with so much fury that she already starts to prepare a Dragon Slave to blow him up but Gourry holds her up to stop her from doing anything destructive.
Kiko cover his eyes with his paws. "Au Auuuuu. Au au? (this is so embarrassing. Why must he always have to act like this every time he sees a flat chest?)"
Lina continues to struggles to make Gourry release her so that she can finish Air Jay. "Let go of me Gourry! I'm going to finish this sick pervert!"
"Lina calm down! You'll end up destroying the city!"
Air Jay forces him self to calm down and to regain his composer and looks back at Lina and Gourry. "Alright…..Alright, after just surviving of what I call the most horrifying vision of my entire life, I think it is about time for me to know what you people want from me!"
Lina meet this just 30 seconds ago and she already hates him, his comments about her figure is even worst than Naga or Gourry's put together. But Lina forced herself to calm down and put on her best grin, she was not going to let Air Jay take the best of her. "I believe that it is obvious when a bandit like you has the most enormous bounty on his head."
Air Jay keep his face calm but his fist was shaking in fury. "DON'T CALL ME A BANDIT! I am not a bandit! Bandits are insignificants! Hide themselves in the woods, robbing people with rusty swords, they are a bunch of morons with no imagination or dignity or even pride. I prefer to be called an outlaw, or even a pirate! You better remember that, miss……who are you anyway?"
"Lina, Lina Inverse!" responded Lina in an almighty pose.
The crowd gasped when they hear the name, thye never thought that they would see the Destructive Sorceress here.
Even Air Jay is impressed. "Lina Inverse……yes, I have herd about you, and all the things you have done, but I never imagined they you also be a bounty hunter considering the fact that you were once wanted as well."
"I'm not a bounty hunter!" replied Lina. "It is just that the bounty on your head is something that I can not close my eyes on……hold on here, how did you know that I was once wanted as well?"
"Hello! There were dozen of wanted posters about you and other two guys a few years ago! DUH!"
Lina and Gourry sweet dropped.
"Well never mind about that!" said Lina. "I challenge you for a fight!"
Air Jay puts on his best grin. "Perfect!"
"What do you mean perfect?" asked Lina, not liking Air Jay's reply.
"I've heard a lot about you Lina Inverse, I heard all about the things you have made."
"What can I say, I'm a big celebrity."
"I thought that you are small Lina." Said Gourry.
"Shut up Gourry!" said Lina as she punched Gourry.
Air Jay just sits back on his table and grabs his bottle of wine. "As strange it might seems Lina, you and I have a lot in common." And destroys it completely. "We are booth considerate as dangerous persons."
Lina turn her attention to Air Jay. She defiantly did not like when people consider her as evil, se knows that she's a little bad but she is defiantly not evil like Air Jay here. "I am not like you!"
Air Jay ignored her and continued. "You are known as the Destructive Sorceresses and I am considerate as the Portuguese Terminator, you are considered as the Dra-Mata and I am considerate as the King of all Outlaws. But still, you hold on a title that it deserves to be mine, all mine!"
"What title?"
"You are also known as the Enemy of all humanity! That title deserves to be mine, not yours!" said Air Jay with some jealousy n his voice.
"HEY!" shouted Lina. "I never wanted to be known has the Enemy of all Humanity! Those are just some dirty rumours that some one's been putting on me! I never wanted to be knows like that!"
"Well……you do destroy cities Lina." Said Gourry.
"Yes she destroys cities!" said Air Jay quickly before Lina ever had a chance to hit Gourry. "But of all the cities that Lina as destroyed no one was ever killed, there was never any victim! I have destroyed many cities and I leave dozen and dozens of victims! I kill a lot of people almost every day when Lina just goes out killing bandits! I'm the one who deserves that title! That is why I accept t fight you Lina!"
Gourry stand in silence and looks at Lina, true that Lina ended up destroying cities with her Dragon Slave but he never realised that there is never any one killed when she does that. She truly is kind despite what other people say, and people say that she is the enemy of all humanity? She has saved the world at least three times, why is she considerate so evil?
"I'm glad to hear that!" said Lina. "But we won't fight today. We will fight tomorrow morning at a small little ghost town about 30 miles from the north. We shall fight there!"
"Whatever. If it is tomorrow or in a day or two the result will be the same, you will lose." Said Air Jay with a smirk. "If I were you I would enjoy the remaining time you have left!"
Lina narrowed her eyes, this guy is just as arrogant as Garv, maybe even more. "Has anyone ever told you that you are so arrogant?"
"Arrogant, huh? Well baby, tomorrow you will find out that I have all the reasons of the world to be arrogant!" after saying that Air Jay looks back at Kiko. "come on Kiko, let's eat some place else."
"Au, Au! (Well, alright!)" And Kiko follows Air Jay out of the restaurant.
But before he could leave, Air Jay turns to the crowd and points at Ashford who was sited in the ground next to Gourry. "And you people better leave the guy right over there, right on that spot where he is, because I will be back to finish him off because if I come to find out that he is not here, I will destroy this city and kill every one!" he threatened.
"Hey you talking Hair ball!" spaded Lina, she knows that Air Jay is doing all this to upset her. "Leave these people alone the fight is between you and me!"
Air Jay turns his head at Lina. "I know baby, but it is so much fun when someone's life is on the line here. I'll see you tomorrow." After saying that, Air Jay left with his dog Kiko.
"He's so arrogant that annoys me!" said Lina, really not liking Air Jay. "I'm going to love blowing him with a Dragon Slave."
"But why did you put on the fight for tomorrow morning Lina?" asked Gourry. "You could take him out right now."
"I know Gourry, but after all that I have heard about this Air Jay guy, I decide to use caution and put this fight in a territory that I know." Lina then turns on to Ashford. "Right now we better help him out, he's really wounded."
"Right."
Lina kneeled down ready to perform a healing spell on Ashford.
"Hold it right there!" demanded one of the town's people. "You can not help him! If we help him Air Jay will kill us all!"
Lina could not believe in what she is hearing, these people are taking Air Jay's threat seriously. "Now come on, don't tell me that you guys are taking seriously that Air Jay……"
"You are saying that because you don't know Air Jay!" said another one of the town's people. "We saw the way he works and he is unmerciful beyond imagination, so leave Ashford right were he is!"
"But……but Ashford is one of you people." Said Gourry. "He's a citizen of your town."
"Yes, but it is more worthy to save the life of an entire city, even if it means to sacrifice one of us!"
"How can you people say that!" yelled Lina, she has been in this town once but she never thought that these people were such cowards. "You people saw what happen here and you obey Air Jay. How can you people do that?"
"Say what you want little girl, but you never saw what Air Jay is capable of doing." Replied another man.
"We have no choice but to act like this because there is no one who can beat Air Jay" continued another guy. "So leave Ashford where he is!"
"Take him to my place!" said an old man with long bear, and with out a right arm.
"Who are you?" asked Lina.
"My name is Urnt, I'm the healer of this city. Take Ashford to my place that I will heal all his wounds."
"Alright!" with out any delays Gourry picks up Ashford.
"Hey what are you doing!" some of the towns people ran to Gourry to stop him, but they were intercepted by Lina who used a Mega Branda to stop them.
"Back off!" she demanded. "You people have guts to stop Gourry from helping one of your own but you are gutless to help when one of your own needs you?"
The town's people started to leave, but on the way they made some comments. "Meddling kids, putting their noses in other peoples business." "For them is indifferent if we get killed."
"I can not believe what big cowards they are!" growled Lina.
"You have to forgive them, they have been in a difficult time because of Air Jay." Said Urnt. "Bring Ashford to my home."

In another restaurant.
We find Air Jay and Kiko eating.
"Au au, auuuu? Au au? (So tell me Air Jay, what did you accepted to fight that Lina girl? Have you forgotten that you were hire to kill a person?)" bark Kiko.
"Relax, Kiko." Said Air Jay as he took a bite of his chicken wing. "we still have time. Besides, I've been wishing of fighting Lina Inverse for quite some time now. It is time for me to be known as the Enemy of all things!" after saying that Air Jay let out an evil laugh which could be heard thought out the entire city.
