III
The strange hunter
"Don't you dare to touch the girl." The figure said.
The beast roared and attacked but with an incredible speed the figure evaded the attack. The beast roared furiously and tried again to hit the figure, but this time the stranger unsheathed a beautiful katana and ripped the beast's arms.
The huge monster cried in pain but before it could do anything else the stranger made a high jump and with a single strike he cut it's head off.
The figure returned his sword to it's sheath and walked toward Sora and Kari.
"Are you okay?" He asked Sora
"Yeah, I am fine, thanks to you." The girl answered.
"And you?" He asked Kari.
"Im okay tank you a lot." She said gratefully.
"Good." He said. "Well this place is not safe for you, follow me I will take you to the nearest village you will be safer there."
Matt looked at him doubtfully, but he decided to trust him, after all he saved Sora.
When they arrive to the village, the stranger guided them to a pub. When they all were sat he ordered something to drink he was dressed with a dark tunic with almost all his face cover and he was wearing a cap. He was carrying a bow, a quiver of arrows, a knife and his sword.
"Well… I have just one question, who are you?" He asked.
"My name is Matt Ishida, that blonde boy over there is my brother Takeru Takaishi." Matt answered pointing T.K.
"You can call me T.K." The boy said.
"That pretty girl over there is Mimi Tacikawa." Matt continued.
"O-hio." The girl greeted cheerfully.
"The blue haired boy is Joe Kido and the spike haired boy is Izzumi Koushiouru."
"Pleased to meet ya." Joe said.
"Just call me Izzy." The spike haired boy said.
"That other girl over there is Hikari Yagami." He said.
"Just Kari please, and thanks again for saving me." She thanked.
"And this auburn girl is Sora Takenouchi." He ended.
"Pleased to meet you." The girl said smiling.
"And what's your name?" She asked.
"Im Vazz." He said simply. "And what are you doing in a place like this? it's not common to see humans in the digiworld."
"Well yes we are looking for someone, have you seen this guy?" Matt said giving him a picture of Tai. He saw it for a while with a strange expression but he said nothing.
"Uhh… Vazz are you okay?" Sora asked.
"Uh? Yes I'm alright, but I haven't seen this guy I'm sorry." He answered.
"Vazz well… I would like to know how you did that?" Izzy asked interested.
"Did what?" He asked.
"You know… killing that digimon. How did you do it? Because you are a human, I guess, and not a lot of humans can do that kind of tings."
"Well, I'm a dark slayer." Well at least is what that old man said.
"A dark slayer?" Izzy asked even more interested.
"Yeah, a dark slayer it's like a hunter, but with special abilities like high speed, faster reflexes and that sort of things." He answered.
"And you gained all those abilities or you were born with them?" Izzy questioned.
"I… really don't know…" Vazz answered and Izzy stood quiet.
"Wait a second." He said taking Tai's picture.
"DIGITAMAMON!" He called.
"Did you call me Vazz?" The digimon said.
"Yes, have you seen this human around?" Vazz said giving him the picture.
After seeing the picture, the digimon responded. "No, I haven't seen any human here besides you for a while." The digimon answered.
"Well, thanks you can go now." Vazz responded.
"See you around Vazz." The digimon said and left.
"Sorry." He said. "But who is this guy?"
"He is our friend, his name is Tai, tow weeks ago, one of those monsters attacked us, and he disappeared taking the monster with him to save us." Matt responded.
To save me… Sora thought.
"And what makes you think that he is still alive?" Vazz asked noticing the pain that appeared in Sora's face.
"Well this evening I receive an email telling me that he is still alive so we are looking for him." Izzy answered.
"Well, my advice for you is not keeping much hope, well its time to me to go." Vazz said and stood up.
"Where are you going?" Matt asked.
"Well… you see, I also have to find someone." Vazz answered simply and walked away.
"One other thing." He said before leaving. "I think it's better for you to stay here or go back to your world, outside is very dangerous."
"Yeah we know, but we have find him." Matt answered.
"As you wish…" Vazz said before leaving.
Later the digidestineid decide to continue with they search. They were walking on the same desert, Sora was walking besides Matt, hand with hand.
Mimi was looking them wondering what was happening between Tai and Sora. The way they hugged, may be… may they were still in love then, what about Matt? Sora loved Matt she was sure of it but…
Suddenly another beast appeared just like the one that Vazz killed but it had red eyes.
"Im sick of this." Sora cried.
Matt embraced her ready to face the beast.
"I can't take this anymore." Sora said closing her eyes.
When the beast was ready to attack them, an arrow thrust in its hand, but before it could even roar other three arrows flew in its direction hitting the monster just in the throat. Promptly they found the archer that save them, it was Vazz.
"You've already save me tow times." She said to him gratefully
"Oh well, a man needs a hobby." He answered.
"Are you okay?" He asked Matt.
"Yeah thank you." He answered smiling.
"I though you were looking for someone." The girl asked.
"Well yes but I wanted to be sure that you guys where okay and, I think that it was a good idea." He responded.
"And who are ya looking for Vazz?" Matt asked.
"Im looking for the digidestineid." He answered.
