"Yes, they were, but they were chased away by a mysterious man," Andrew answered her, "Hopefully he'll come help us again next time."

Zear nodded to himself as he listened from outside. "Yes, I will be back, little one. Especially if they return," he murmured to himself. "But daylight breaks. I must be gone." The hunter smiled and walked away.

As the sun rose up over Baerg, Andrew and the others were just finally getting to sleep.

But the hunter, Zear, had just begun to work. The basement he'd decided to occupy in one of the abandoned houses needed a bit of 'help' to make it livable.

Cleaning the basement almost as efficiently as he cleaned out the Panustas, Zear finished in a matter of minutes.

Done with his self-appointed work for the moment, he stretched out on the bed of cloaks and blankets he had formed and dropped off to sleep, keeping one ear out for a warning if anything approached.

Each hour that passed by with silence calmed the hearts of Andrew and the others. Their sleep was long and, as far as they were concerned, well deserved.

Finally night drew in upon the city once more. Zear woke and stretched, grinning at the prospect of another fight with the Panustas.

"Good evening," Zear looked at the horizon, speaking to no one in particular, "Another night of slaying shall commence."

"Hi..." After a pause, the small voice asked him, "Are you the hunter Andrew told me about?"

"Indeed," Zear replied, "What are you doing out here?"

"Just wandering around. Ma and Pa aren't..." She stopped speaking abruptly, looking at the ground. "Ma and Pa went away."

Kim, Xena's friend, came running out, "What're you doing, Xena?"

Light spilled from the open doorway behind her, and Zear edged out of its glow as Xena replied cheerfully, "I'm talking to Mister hunter."

"Mister hunter, eh?" Andrew replied, "Well come back inside now, it's getting dark."

Next moment, the hunter was gone. Zear chuckled to himself, remembering the look on the man's face, as he disappeared. He had been enjoying his talk with the little girl, but apparently the humans were not happy with him around their younglings.

*Fixed it kage...Thanks!*
Only he knew that he would never hurt a youngling. Never.

"Party over here!" he heard one of the townsfolk say. Zear knew he was hated and was not invited to the random party they started. But he started heading back.

"Quiet down, everyone! Quiet down! We've had someone to help us last night, but the fellow may not be aroudn anymore. We need to figure out some way to stop these creatures!"

"Ride them out with spoons and forks!" one guy said. "No, lets eat them!" "No that wont work, lets burn them!"

"Start collecting stuff that'll burn then. The hunter used burning, exploding darts or something, and that killed 'em and chased 'em off."

"Try that firewood over in the corner!"

Underneath the firewood when they picked it up, they found a small stone. It looked pretty normal, except that is shines funny colors.
They all just stared at this special looking rock.

"Very interesting," Zear murmured as he saw the rock the humans had found. "A fire stone. How very coincidental. I wonder if they can find out how it works? This should be interesting."
