Chapter 3 The Purple Rock (1/2)

3rd Person POV

"Ow. Ow. Ow!" Alex winced in pain at Dana tending his wounds. After coming back to the guild and breaking curfew he was pummeled by the boss of the guild. "Can you be anymore rough!" Alex exclaimed glaring at Dana as she was working on wrapping his arm with bandages. "Well, this wouldn't have happened if you didn't break curfew," She said confidently tightening the bandages around Alex's arms causing him to howl in pain.

"What about Jack? He broke curfew too!" He caress his arm growling at Dana. "He got permission from the boss to look for your trouble arse and when it probably got dark he gave up and slept at a hotel." Dana pointed at Alex returning the growl. "Give me a break! That was yesterday! It is now 10 A.M. Where is he?" Jack raised his arms up searching through the crowd of people in the guild. 

"Is he seriously yelling at this time of the day?" A blue haired male groaned walking towards the duo. "Oh, hey Kinmeru," Aalton spoke bluntly taking a sip of his beer silently listening to Dana and Alex bantering. 

Kinmeru, a 22 year old male. Species; an elf with pointy ears and sparkling green eyes. Kinmeru took a seat next to Aalton at the bar. "What happened?" Kinmeru asked making himself a cup of beer and taking a sip of it. "Hey! You have to pay for that!" Dana exclaimed towards the drowsy elf. "Yeah, yeah..." Kinmeru waved his hand towards Dana telling her he heard her but really didn't.

Aalton turned towards the elf, "Alex broke curfew yesterday, Jack went to look for him and never came back sense, and now Dana and Alex are arguing on if Jack should suffer the consequences from the boss." Aalton took another sip of his beer now turned towards the fighting duo. 

"He should get a more harsh punishment then me!" Alex yelled at Dana hitting his fist on the counter. "No, he shouldn't! He got permission from the boss to find you and probably got lost," Dana yelled back flying an inch of the floor to meet eye level with Alex to show dominance." 

"Huh, that's interesting..." Kinmeru continued looking at the two, "Jack never broke curfew..." He leaned back in his chair with curiosity in his eyes. 

Aalton side glanced Kinmeru noticing dark bags under the 23 year old males eyes. "Did you stay up late again writing the bounty flyers," Aalton asked getting the elf's attention. "How can you tell?" Kinmeru sarcastically asked. "Well, that's what I get for being the bosses right hand man." Aalton smirked shaking his head at the elf's cockiness. "You don't miss any opportunity in bragging about that, huh?" Kinmeru chuckled before answering, "Guess not." "Any way, where is your sister?" Aalton asked trying to make conversation. "Himari? Oh, she's taking a bounty job up north." Kinmeru simply answered.

Suddenly, the doors to the guild swung wide open startling a few people in the guild. Dana turned towards the door and saw the said red-haired male. "Jack?" Dana questioned squinting her eyes not really sure because of the sunlight in the background. The red-haired male trudged in the guild as his footsteps pattered on the floor. 

People stared at the male looking at his appearance. "What happened to you? Your soaked!" Dana said with concern walking fast to get towels. Dana approached Jack with towels in hand. Jack just held a soar look as he stared at the fairy. He trudged past the women not saying anything furrowing his eyebrows. His eyes scanned the gild trying to find one specific person. 

Jack's eyes set on the werewolf and walked towards him. Alex was too busy talking to Aalton and Kinmeru to notice him. Dana just watched him curiously. Jack stopped right behind the werewolf staring down at the male. 

Aalton just noticed his presence and Alex seemed to notice Aalton's lack of attention to him and turned towards where his eyes were staring fixated on.
The werewolf looked behind him and stared right up at Jack. 

Alex first gave a questionable look. "What do you wa-," Alex cut himself off trailing over the Harpy's appearance. Droplets of water fell from his wings and clothes. Alex gave a straight faced expression for a second then busted out laughing. 

Jack had enough of the annoying werewolf and without any warning grabbed Alex's chair and pulled it from under him. The sudden action caused Alex to gasp and fall on the floor hard. Alex cried out because of the hard impact and glared up at the Harpy.

"What was that for?" Alex seethed. Jack scowled at him and walked away. "Don't break curfew again," Jack said not looking back and trudging upstairs to his room. Aalton and Kinmeru roared with laughter as Alex struggled to get up rubbing his bottom.

"Dotty, are you sure this is the right way?" The black-haired male eyed the map in the panda boys hands. They walked along side each other. "Yeah! Why don't you trust me?" The red panda eyed his friend. "Last time you led us into a dragon's cave when we were trying to find food," the male bluntly said.

"That was one time!" The male ignored the panda's complain and continued. "You also led us into a siren's territory where we almost drowned, then into the Yeti's forest, then the forbidden forest holding the killing trees, then after that-," the male was cut off by the panda. "Okay! Okay! I got it!" the panda boy swinging his arms around. 

The panda stared at the ground in embarrassment. Dotty; a 20 year old male. Species, red panda with puffy stripped red and white tail and red fluffy ears on top of his maroon hair. 

From the corner of the panda's eyes he could see people staring at them as they walked past us. "Huh? Hey, dude..." the panda boy spoke trying to get the male's attention. "What is it? The male asked looking down at the red panda. "Uh, people are staring at us..." The male looked around seeing people were actually staring at them. "Wow, people are actually staring at us. I wonder why?"

The male looked around the crowd confirming the gazes. "Dotty, did you forget your pants again?" the black haired male said bluntly analyzing the male. Brian's question caused the short male to blush. "What! No! N-now that was a one t-time thing! I was tired!" The panda stuttered as his face turned scarlet.
