Chao nearly stumbled from the explosion and barely kept his balance as it rattled the inn’s supports. We really need to get out of here, thought Chao as he finally put on his cloak. Grabbing his sword, he ran out the door following Saige but stopped in the middle of the ground floor and looked to the bar.

He jumped over the counter and ran through the bar to check on the bartender. But by that time, the building was engulfed by flames by another explosion that sounded like it came from right outside. Eventually, he found the bartender and his family huddled in one of their bedrooms hoping that the monster outside would go away. “You all need to get out of here NOW!” Chao yelled as he looked around the room to see who was there.

In the room he saw the bartender, his wife, two sons, and four daughters. The sons looked to be of the ages eighteen and eleven and the daughters looked to be of the ages sixteen, fourteen, eleven, and six. “We can’t go” replied the bartender “This is our home. What will we do after this building is destroyed?” Chao pulled the man to his feet and pulled him close until he was centimeters from his face. “You and your family live and rebuild the inn, unless you want to be the one responsible for your family’s death.” Chao shouted as he pushed the man back. The man stumbled to the floor and his family gathered around him to see he was injured. The eldest son grabbed Chao by the coller. “Wait,” said the bartender as he got back up. “You may be right, though this inn was created by my grandfather, it can be repaired. Lives cannot.”

As the family ran out the back door, Chao saw a doll on the ground behind him near a bed. The doll was made with straw but was finely crafted none the less. Assuming the doll belonged to the little girl; he grabbed it and ran out the back door just in time for the building to be destroyed by a fire ball. At the back he saw the family running away from the scene and started running himself. The youngest daughter looked behind her and saw the stranger with her doll in his hand. She broke free from her mother’s grip and ran towards Chao as fast as she could. Once she got her doll back she hugged it with all her might and thanked Chao with a big grin on her face.

“Damn it!” Chao heard behind him. He turned around to see Bryan falling from the sky but to what happened to him when he hit the ground was blocked by the inn. Chao looked up to see the Bahamut knocking something off its back. The bartender grabbed his little girl and started running with her in his arms. Chao saw the Bahamut looking at him then to the family and Chao knew what it was going to do. He grabbed a knife from a holster on his chest and concentrated on it. The knife started to glow white just in time for the dragon to unleash a fireball. Chao threw his knife at the dragon as it was about to fire and what followed was a blinding light.

The fireball then shot threw the light and missed the family by a few meters. The Bahamut roared as his shot missed his intended target and started to look at the man who impaired his aim for that brief second. Chao pulled out his sword and another knife and ran towards the beast in the sky. Jumping on building to building, Chao was trying to get close to the beast but the Bahamut swiped Chao from the air when he got too close. Chao then threw the knife towards the eye of the beast but, unfortunately, the Bahamut saw this and barely dodge the knife as it clipped the scales on the side of its head.

Chao landed in the snowbank and picked himself up just in time to see the Bahamut staring at the team. With an earthshattering roar, the dragon flew towards the sky away from the Neviah until it was out of sight. That's odd, Chao thought. ''Why did the Bahamut leave? Was it testing our strength?''
