Part 2

THE WATCHTOWER STOOD in the center of the village. Buildings lined the road leading up to it, and I could see a public well. Unlike in the fields, here there were signs of trouble—screams and shouts, complete pandemonium. Several villagers lay bleeding in front of the watchtower. Doz stood in the midst of all this, that weird ball of earth at his feet—the Little Rock Dragon’s egg.

Doz’s sword was unsheathed. He’d apparently worked out how to remove it from the rusty scabbard. He must’ve cut down the humans who’d fallen.

Well, more likely he stabbed them. The blade was so dull I doubted it could cut much of anything.

“Put down your weapon! What in the blazes has gotten into you?!” Three villagers armed with bows gathered around Doz. He languidly shifted his grip on his sword, paused for a moment, and then suddenly sprang forward.

“Hee hee hee hee hee!”

“Don’t hesitate! Shoot him!” Three arrows were loosed. Doz batted them away with his blade and closed in on the villagers.

One arrow managed to pierce Doz’s shoulder, but that didn’t stop him. He didn’t even slow down. Maybe he couldn’t feel pain anymore.

He ran them down and walloped them with his sword. The action was so violent that this was the only way I could think to describe it. He knocked all three of them down before stabbing one in the back. The man let out a scream of agony as he died.

Doz had no skills, but his stats were far higher than any of the villagers’. They were powerless to stop him, even with weapons.

“Hya, hee hee hee!” He let out another crazed peal of laughter when he saw me, almost as if he’d been waiting for me.

“Raar!” I hunkered down to let Gregory climb off.

He started to say “I can take care of—” but stopped short. His leg was injured and he wasn’t at full power—he had to have known how outmatched he was. Doz’s stats were way beyond Gregory’s.

Doz must have leveled up during his time missing, and he was probably stronger than Gregory even before that. Gregory couldn’t take Doz one-on-one.

The village was in shambles. Some people were running, some watching from afar, others injured and trapped, still more carrying those injured to safety. Gregory pointed at me, explaining my presence to the people around us. That didn’t eradicate their fear, but it did lessen it a bit.

Doz had left the Little Rock Dragon’s egg at the foot of the watchtower. I thought I could get it without fighting him, but if I didn’t do something fast, the bodies would keep piling up. I had to stop Doz’s rampage.

“Hee hee, hya ha ha!” He brandished his sword high as I came closer, and I took the blow to my head. “Hee hee hee…haa?” His warped grin faded as his sword bounced off my scales. That rusty thing had no chance.

The recoil only surprised Doz for a moment before he came charging at me again.

“Gaa gah haa!” I hit him, hearing his joints creak as he fell backwards, head striking the watchtower.
