All Is Well? (2)

"Are you alright?"

He asked, his voice surprisingly calm for a boy his age. A bright smile lit up his face, and I stared.

He had black hair, blue eyes, and a strikingly handsome face.

For a second, a weird feeling lingered. It's déjà vu, but this time, I'm just surprised instead of feeling anything.

So much had happened, yet I felt oddly detached.

"Y-Yeah…"

I stammered, bowing my head in gratitude.

SHACK…

He sheathed his sword and gently handed Leanne to me.

"I'll take care of those Maulers quickly. I heard people in town mention two girls arriving, but I didn't know there would be three."

"Okay..." I replied, still feeling dazed.

3 minutes later…

"Incredible…"

I watched in shock as the boy slaughtered the entire pack of Maulers.

I had my doubts, but it was clear they were bound to lose.

In moments, they were all dead, with their bodies strewn across the forest floor.
