"If killing that thing was so easy, why didn't I see you helping us?"
The stranger rolled his eyes. "Uh, because I was taking down the other one." He must've seen Ruby's confused look and said, "those things always hunt in pairs. The other one was still outside the tavern. Now, it's scattered all over the ground," he added with a grin. "Anyway...you two better get back to the tavern. Last I saw it, someone was stealing some expensive looking potions that I believe belong to you," he said, nodding at Ruby.
"What?! Maka, let's go!" He broke off into a mad dash towards the tavern.
