章節 23: Dylan
Dylan had mixed feelings when he saw Tarou, again, after all those years.
He was happy to see his best friend. Despite Tarou being the strongest among all the young monsters, he never looked down at him or mocked him for being weak. On the contrary, Tarou helped him to become stronger. But at the same time, it steered bad feelings.
- Now that I saw you again, I remembered a lot of memories that I wanted to erase.
- Was it this bad?
- Yeah, It was... So, What brings you here?
- I came with Aaron. He got his sacred mission and I decided to escort him to the city.
- I can't believe that Aaron is already twenty years old. I see that you still worry about him.
- Yeah, I couldn't leave him alone.
- So, you will go to the city?
- No, for the time being, we will stay in this town.
- Really? Why?
- Actually, something unexpected happened.
- What did happen?
Tarou hesitated for a little bit, then he replied:
- We found our mother.
- What? Did you find aunt Anna? Where is she? How is she doing?
- She is fine. We are living together now.
- Can I meet her? I like to say hello. She stood by my side when my mother died. I will never forget that.
- Alright, since we live in the town, we will meet again.
Dylan looked at Sarra while smiling:
- What is your beautiful sister's name again?.... Sara? I will be happy to meet you again.
Tarou stood up suddenly:
- We must go back now, it's getting late. I will take you the next time to visit Anna, she will be glad to see you again.
- I will wait...
He grabbed Sarra by her hand and got out of the coffee shop.
- Your friend seems nice.
- Let's go back, we have a lot of things to carry can you deliver them?
- Of course, I can.
She took out her magic stick and, whoosh, everything disappeared.
Aaron opened his eyes. He found himself tied to a chair in a dark room.
" Where am I? Who did this to me?
He looked around him, a woman was lying on the Floor unconscious.
" Those screams, it must be her, what did happen"
He tried to untie the rope, but it was very tight. The woman wasn't tied, he poked her with his leg :
- Hey, you, wake up.
The woman started moving:
- Can you hear me? Are you okay?
As soon as she opened her eyes, she started screaming.
- HELP...HELP...SOMEONE HELP ME.
- Stop it, calm down woman.
She looked at him terrified.
- Who....who are you?
- Don't be scared, someone kidnapped me as well. Untie me, I will help you get out of here.
The woman got closer to him, then she tried to cut the rope with a piece of glass she found on the floor.
- Hurry up before someone gets here!
The rope was finally cut, Aaron ran to the door and tried to open it but it was shut.
He kicked it and tried to break it down with all his power, but he failed.
At that moment he felt how weak he was.
" I couldn't even break this door! If it was Tarou, it would be a piece of cake. For how long I will be this worthless?"
Aaron was very angry and desperate. What should he do to save himself and that woman?
- This is all happening because of that thing.
Said the woman while crying.
- What do you mean? What thing?
- I'm carrying a very precious gem, I hid it carefully inside my clothes. Fortunately, they couldn't find it anywhere, so they kidnapped me instead. I think they are some kind of gang.
- Why you didn't give it to them to spare your life?
- It is not something you can give to anyone even if your life is in danger. This jewelry is unique and very dangerous.
The woman put her hand inside her clothes, then she took out the jewelry. It was as black as night with the shape of a drop of water, not very big and not very small.
Aaron felt something strange pulling him to the gem. Unconsciously, he reached his hand to it, but the woman hid it quickly.
- You can't touch it.
- Why?
- That's the "Black stone ".
- WHAT? THE BLACK STONE?
Aaron couldn't believe his ears. He just saw the black stone. The one that gave his mother a huge power!
How can that be possible?
