Ruby expected to feel her heart being pierced by the stinger, but she felt...nothing. She opened her eyes to see that the Death Stalker had stopped its strike mid-action.

It was then Ruby turned towards the source of the noise.
At first, she couldn't see anything. Just the trees that make up the forest. Then she saw it: smoke coming from a metallic object.

The man's clothes were painted in a style that helped him blend in the trees. This man was her savior.

This weapon was unlike anything Ruby has seen. It was in a dull tone like the other one, but its a sword that has an unusual curve for it, as if someone bent it on purpose.
Before she could warn him, the Death Stalker rushed past her towards him, intent on ripping him apart. The man was also heading towards the Death Stalker, brandishing his weapon as he did so.
