Arriving at the ruins, there were stone buildings covered in sand, some were buried below the sand and only the top could be seen, it was deserted both of them thought.
Then they both climb on top of the buildings, strangely enough they both saw smoke in the far edge of the buildings, Alexander signaled Xavier that they should approach them.
'it seems people are still living here' Alexander thought to himself, cautiously they were approaching the camp, at every step Alexander did not make a sound.
Xavier tiptoes towards the building and climbed a tower as he arrived at the top he looked towards the camp, he saw people with no shirt but they were wearing clothes beneath.
Among them was an old man, bearded and wearing a strange turban on his head, based on his looks he should be around 50 years old, people were gathering around the fire and the old man was sitting at the tent just looking at the people who were gathered.
Alexander arrived at the top, then a silent arrow was shot aiming towards Xaviers head it was so fast that Xavier didn't have time to react but Alexander caught it between his fingers.
There was a strange green substance on the arrow, it was poison! A slight wound was seen on Alexander's hand his skin became purple but it didn't spread much yet.
As soon as Alexander caught the arrow, he located the the archer, behind the tents a woman long brown hair carrying a huge long bow, she was muscular, she was wearing a top but you can see her chiseled abs, she faced towards Alexander and glared into his eyes, Alexander shivered.
'eughh, muscular woman scare me sometimes, she reminds me of adeera', Alexander thought as he jump from the building towards the camp.
Gliding down towards the camp, his nails grew longer and sharper and it became reddish black, Alexander aimed his fingers towards the woman to which the woman shot three arrows towards him.
He sliced the first arrow with his sharp nails and the second he evaded when he tilted his head but one arrow grazed his left cheeks.
Xavier on top of the of the ancient tower, saw this and grabbed his bow, although he is not as great as the archer they were facing he needs to contribute even a small wound could win them the battle.
Stretching his bow string to the max, the arrow flew but not as fast as the arrow the woman shot at him.
Releasing the arrow, it flew pass the people who were in the camp and went straight towards the archer woman, to which she dodged gracefully the arrow cuts a part of her long brown hair but she was unharmed.
The people immediately noticed they're presence, some people ran away but few grabbed some spikey sticks and spears, looks like they were ready to fight.
"Intruders!!!" They all shouted.
"Ahh, sh*t".
"Alex!, focus on the woman I'll handle the mob". Xavier shouted towards Alexander.
Alexander charged at full speed towards the woman.
Bang.
The earth where Alexander landed shattered, fog arose and Alexander walked through the thin fog, his mouth was a bit of ember causing some smoke to be released from his mouth, he looked everywhere for the woman.
"Looking for me?", a gorgeous woman was seen she had the face of a beauty but her gym like body makes her overpowering when you look at her.
"Archer... Your from the Ado tribe aren't you?", Alexander looked at her with full confidence.
"Varia Ado, I'm surprised you know about my tribe", she replied.
"How could I not?, that tattoo on your neck isn't that Adeera's crest?".
"Your right, it is lady Adeera's crest it's a blessing", she touched the tattoo with her hand.
She grabbed a small dagger from her side and pointed it at Alexander "how do you know so much?, I do know that your dragon but to be injured by my arrow? Your weak!".
She charged towards Alexander, she kicks him but he blocks it, she was fast but a weakened Alexander was faster when she stealthly appears towards his back. Alexander turned with a kick, varia who was caught off guard went flying towards the buildings.
"Keok.... Ughh...", she looked towards Alexander. Her eyes were barely open, she was puking blood. Slowly she began to lose consciousness and she fainted.
"Hmmm, I didn't even hit her with my hardest kick", Alexander exclaimed.
He sighed. "Alright ", he carried varia towards the mob of people that Xavier was keeping busy.
"Ahheemmm!!, look here people I have your strongest warrior, either you shut up or you will be like her", Alexander shouted.
Silence fell on the camp, everyone that attacked Xavier dropped their weapons 'ahh classic reaction, show them your strong and they stop' Alexander dropped varia to the ground and sat beside her.
"No one moves!, grab your weapons and your dead".
They stayed like that for hours, until night struck.
Varia who was tied by some ropes by the side woke up.
"Auhmm....".
"Alexander!!, Alexander!", Xavier called him.
Alexander approach her as she opens her eyes, she tried to wiggle her out of the ropes but to no avail.
"Look, were not here to hurt you there is something I lost here, I just need it back", he looked varia in the eye.
"If it's lost here then it will never be found", she stubbornly refused to tell them anything.
"The temple of the Wind".
Hearing those words coming out of Alexanders mouth she looked at him, her eyes wide open with malice.
"How do you that", she furiously said.
"Cause Adeera was dear friend".
