...The Stalker...

Aaron and the rest didn't leave the room for the rest of the day, they must first understand that text to know the next move.

Dylan kept reading the note over and over again.

- I get that seven people came from a different place. They call it the hidden world. They could be monsters, but I'm not sure about that. Those persons brought something very precious with them and they used it for the benefit of this world. But before dying, they hid it carefully because that thing can be dangerous and led to the destruction of the world if it was put in the wrong hands. But I didn't understand what was written after. How can the treasure be hidden in their hearts? Should we look for their Tombs?

- Let's call father, maybe he knows something.

They waited until night, then they called Alan to tell him about what they found.

- Hello Diana, it's me, Aaron.

- Aaron! Are you okay? Is Annie okay?

- Don't worry, dear, we are fine. She is enjoying the trip.

- Why you couldn't bring her back?

- The bracelet that my father gave to her is protecting her from any outside power. It is sealing her inside a protecting barrier, nothing works with it. We couldn't even take it off.

- This is weird.

- Is father there? I want to talk with him...

- Alright, wait for a moment.

- Hi Aaron, how have you been? Is everything okay?

- Hi dad. Yes, everything is okay until now, but I have something to ask.

- Go ahead.

- Is there anything in our ancient history about seven monsters that left the land and spent the rest of their lives in the human world?

- No, a story like that did never come across me, but I will search more in the ancient books, maybe there is something I missed.

- Alright Dad, I will give you another call after a few days to see what did you find.

Aaron hung up the call while looking gloomy.

- He didn't know about it, did he?

- What should we do now, we can't just stay still without doing anything, we are running out of time.

- Sarra, what Tarou did after reading these words?

- Nothing much, but I remember that at night he flew away for a couple of hours then he returned. And as usual, he didn't tell me anything.

- So, at night he went somewhere! Where did he go?

- I don't know, I couldn't leave Salma alone and follow him.

- We are facing another mystery.

- Let's get enough sleep for tonight, maybe tomorrow we will figure out something.

In the morning, they went for another tour around the city. As yesterday, Dylan felt that someone was stalking them. The same thing happened the third day.

- Dylan, I think we should do something about that stalker, he has been following us for three days.

- I'm not sure about that. I tried to figure out his identity, but he is covering his head.

- We don't have anything to lose anyway. Maybe he knows where Tarou is and spares us the trouble.

- You're right, we won't lose anything. Let's catch him.

Aaron gave a kiss to his daughter:

- Do you want to go for a stroll with aunt Sarra? uncle Dylan and I have something important to do.

- Alright, I want to see again the pyramids, they are amazing.

- Let's go then

Replied Sarra while holding her hand.

When Sarra took Annie away, Aaron and Dylan pretended to go somewhere else. The stalker followed them, but Aaron suddenly showed up in front of him.

- Going somewhere?

Then he took him with his incredible speed to the hotel room. And tied him into a chair.

The stalker was still covering his head, so, when Dylan took it off, they were very surprised.

It appeared that the stalker was a woman, a very beautiful woman with long black hair, light brown skin, and hazel eye color.

After discovering that the stalker was actually a woman, Aaron and Dylan panicked and backed off.

- Who are you? And why you were following us?

- What did you do earlier was amazing! How did you do it? I never saw a monster with such power.

Said the woman with an excited face.

Aaron glared at her:

- How did you know that we were monsters?

- I have been following monsters since you showed up yourself to the world. It was such a big surprise for me. I did my best to study your characteristics and your power. Though you look like humans, now, after all these years, I can recognize any monsters.

- How is that?

- First, the way you walk, because you always use your power you look very uncomfortable while walking. As for humans, it is something natural. Also, your ears are slightly sharp and your bodies are bigger. I was sure about you, but your friend made me confused. Are you also a monster?

Dylan and Aaron became more cautious towards her:

- What do you want from us?

- I just want to see you and study more about you. I can't afford to go to your land so I'm looking for monsters around my place.

- Who is the last monster that you followed, before us?

- Mmm, lately I met a lot of monsters. The latest was a water monster called Sebastián I think.

- Tarou, his name is Tarou.

- Tarou? Oh, yes, I remember him. How could I forget that amazing wind monster? I kept stalking him for a week.

- I don't think you should be proud of that. Anyway, can you tell us where did he go exactly?

- I will tell you in one condition.

- What is it?

- I want to accompany you...
