Chapter 4 New Visitors

3rd person POV

"Look up! It's already dark! That is what happens when a certain person wanders off to do who knows what!" Dotty exclaimed smacking his buddy again with his map. Dotty's friend just ignored him and walked up the steep steps towards the big door. It looks just like a castle but is made out of wood and a lot smaller. Dotty's buddy couldn't believe his eyes...

He finally made it...

The black-haired boy pressed his hand on the chipped door and gently pushed it.

After all these years...

He gulped before taking a step into the guild. His hands were slightly shaking as he looked around the guild.

He finally made it...

Dotty walked up behind his buddy and decided to observe the guild himself. The place was dark but the only thing that helped them see was the lamps outside seeping through the windows. All the chairs were up on the tables and abandoned. The pair looked around not seeing anyone in sight. Dotty looked up at his companion and saw a distressed look on his face making Dotty give him a concerned look.

He pats his friend in comfort as they proceeded down the mess hall. "Hello? Is anyone there?" The black-haired male-directed to no one in particular.

"Dude! Don't ask that! That line is what everyone says before they are brutally murdered!" Dotty hissed at him as his face shown horror. The black-haired male just looked down at him with a query look.

"Can I help you?" Someone asked behind them making Dotty yelp while his buddy felt a shiver go up to his spine in surprise.

They looked behind to see who it was. The pair analyzed the person that was behind them. It was a tall male that had short, but a bit curved at the end, ear-length orange hair. His yellow eyes lit up the room as he stared sharply at the two with a raised eyebrow. He was sat at a table in the corner by the entrance where he could easily be missed by people walking through the door.

The unfamiliar male sitting at the table stared at the pair on high alert. Dotty saw something very strange seeing as how the stranger was a bit soaked. Dotty's eyes widened when he sniffed a type of scent that was painfully familiar.

"Blood?" he thought. he turned to his friend with furrowed eyebrows.

"Now, look what you did, dude? You jinxed it! Now we are actually going to get killed!" he raised his arms in the air. The red panda's friend ignored him and took a step towards the stranger.

"We're looking for the leader of this establishment," the black-haired male asked as his appearance looked serene. He took another step as both Dotty and his companion saw him reach for something.

"And what business do you have with her?" The stranger said as he became cautious with the two people that walked into the guild.

"We're here to-" he continued as he reached in his pocket to get the package. The stranger took it the wrong way thinking it was a weapon. The orange-haired boy pounced at the male pulling out a weapon that looked much like a nagi.

The black-haired male was tackled to the ground as his eyes widened. The orange-haired male was on top of the male raising his weapon ready to bring it down. "Give her a letter..." the orange-haired boy had his weapon a few inches away from the black-haired boy's face. "Oh," he said a bit ashamed for overthinking as he got off the male muttering a quiet apology.

Dotty ran over to his friend checking to see if there were any wounds. The orange-haired male cleared his throat before pointing in a direction leading upstairs, "Do you want me to lead you to her..." Once Dotty made sure that his friend wasn't harmed in any way, he straightened up and glared at the orange-haired male.
