[Stranger's Girl]

XD Anyways, here's the good thing about having a Fuzzle as a pet!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Once they reached a tunnel, Stranger looked at Alex and grinned, “I’m getting' bored. ‘Old on, kid.”

“Wha-?” Alex blinked, but soon got her answer. Stranger threw the young human on his back and started to run. In a minute, he was running on all fours and Alex laughed as she sat on his back like she was riding a horse. “So this is whatcha meant!”

Stranger only smiled back. He exited the tunnel and took a sharp turn to the right, which made Alex grab onto his poncho tight. The bounty hunter snickered a little as he felt the human’s grip tighten and then continued to run forwards. The path became a canyon-like place, with cliffs blocking the two into the path, making it where they could only follow it or turn back. There was no other choice. Stranger smiled and skidded to a stop, making Alex fly off his back. He stood up, brushed himself off an then smiled at the human. “You okay, kiddo?”

Alex stood up and dusted herself off. She looked at her friend and huffed as Chomp climbed out of her pack, annoyed. “Yes, I’m fine. Let’s keep goin’.” She growled.

Stranger chuckled and kept walking. Alex hurried next to him and Chomp went back into the bag. The path took a turn and they walked into a large patch of reeds. Both of the hunters stuck their heads out of hiding and saw two Outlaw Minions standing under a very large boulder that was held up by a crane. Alex blinked. “Idiots!”

“Hmm?”

“They’re idiots. Look.” Alex pointed to the crane and the boulder. “They’re jus’ standin’ there. Stranger, stupid people amaze me.”

“Me too, kiddo, me too.” Stranger chuckled. He pulled out his crossbow. “Kill ‘em or take ‘em in alive…” He wondered.

“Hmm…” Alex folded her arms. “I get one an’ you get the other?” She asked, smiling.

Stranger chuckled again. He ruffled Alex’s short hair gently and then looked at the minions. Said outlaws were a mixture of huge lizards and a lot of ugliness. They had on navy-blue shirts with torn olive green pants. They had narrow faces and humped backs and carried two guns slung over their shoulders. Stranger looked at Alex. “I get the one on the left, kid.” He grinned.

“An’ I get the one on the right.” Alex smiled back. She pulled out her knife. “Ready?”

Stranger snickered and pulled out his crossbow. He loaded it with a Chippunk and a Bolamite and then fired the squirrel-like animal away from the outlaws. “Watch an’ learn, kid.” He grinned.

An outlaw groaned, “Go check that out, Slim.”

“Me? What about you, Bo?” Slim blinked.

“Jus’ do it!” Bo snapped.

“Fine.” Slim growled. He walked right by the reeds to where the Chippunk was behind the two bounty hunters. “Found ya, ya no good…” He growled, stomping at the animal.

Alex blinked as the Chippunk continued to yell out insults and dodge the minion’s feet. Stranger grinned and fired at Bolamite at the outlaw. Said spider creature wrapped its webbing around Slim and gagged him as well. Stranger walked out of the reeds, over to the struggling outlaw and pulled out his vacuum. The bounty hunter sucked the struggling outlaw up and then turned to Alex. “Yer turn, kiddo.”

“Finally.” Alex stuck out her tongue. She looked at the last outlaw, Bo, and took a deep breath. “For all the slaggin’ times I’ve nearly been killed…” She whispered before walking into view. “Hey! Bo! Yer partner was a no good saurian!”

“What?” Bo turned and smiled. “Well, well, a ‘uman.” He cracked his knuckles, “Finally, I can have some fun.”

“Not on your life, chuckles.” Alex snarled. She leapt at the outlaw, knife at the ready, and slashed at him.

Bo let out a cry as the knife slashed his arm. He glared at Alex. “You’ll pay for that one, ‘uman!” Alex simply smiled. Bo snarled and got his gun ready when a furball attacked his face. The outlaw let out another cry and tried to fight it. “Get it off! Get it off!” He yelled.

“Chomp! Stop!” Alex yelled, afraid for her pet.

The Fuzzle simply snarled and bit into the outlaw’s face ever harder. It wasn’t until Alex had stabbed the outlaw in the back, making him fall down, dead, that Chomp let go of Bo and jumped onto Alex’s shoulder, his chest puffed out in pride. He nuzzled the human’s worried face.

Alex sighed and petted the Fuzzle. “Next time, don’t help me.”

Stranger chuckled as he bountied the outlaw. He looked at Alex and Chomp and smiled. “Seems like the Fuzzle’ll do anythin’ ta protect ya.”

“Seems like it.” Alex muttered as Chomp slid into her pack.

“C’mon, kid, the wagon trains ‘r’ close by. This is the route that’ll take us ta ‘em.” Stranger said before he started to run.

Alex rolled her eyes and ran after the bounty hunter after she slid her knife back into its sheath. She caught up with Stranger, who wasn’t running as fast as he could, and the two took a turn to the right. In front of them, stood an abandoned warehouse with Bolamites crawling on the ground and on the hill across from it, stood a charred mill that was barely left standing. A gate was open in front of the two and they ran through it up a hill. Right when they reached the top, the two hunters ran into another reed patch with more outlaws in front of them.

These outlaws were different, however, they had red, tattered shirts with green shirts and, on their knuckles, they had shedder-looking things. Instead of green/yellow colored skin, they had orange colored skin and a small jaw with sharp teeth. Each minion stood around a large, arched opening that had dynamite shoved in front and to the side of the arch that were connected to a fuse box.

One looked at the other two and yelled, “We’re all set! I hear the trains-a comin’!”

Alex looked at Stranger, who held a finger to his lips, indicating silence. The human nodded and looked back at the show as the head minion yelled, “Good! ‘Cause here they come! Get into position!”

The other two scattered as the sound of engines hit Alex and Stranger’s ears. The head minion looked at the other two minions, who were by the fuse box. “Hold it! Hold it…hold it…” He said to himself quite loudly. The head minion smiled, “NOW!” He said, eyes flashing an evil color.

The other two minions smiled and slammed the handle down. A moment later, the dynamite exploded, causing the rock archway to collapse, thus creating a barrier so the wagon train couldn’t get through. The minions stayed still for a minute and then cheered loudly. “DAMN!” One shouted, cackling.

“OK! Guard the area! Make sure no one gets to these trains!” The leader growled.

The two other minions rolled their eyes, but started to walk around, following their boss’s orders. Alex and Stranger looked at each other. They looked at the minions and then at each other again, smiling. “You git a Shredder, I wan’ the other two.”

“Deal.” Alex nodded. She pulled out her knife and then looked at a Shredder, her eyes flashing with a plan. “Can ya take out the other two first?”

“Thought ya’d never as’.” Stranger grinned. He loaded his crossbow with another Chippunk who started to talk.

“’Ey, fuzz face, what’s goin’ on? Huh? We gonna go for a ride?” It yelled. “Ooh, pretty girl. ‘Ey, you think once you ditch this guy you can-”

“Shoot him.” Alex snarled.

Stranger chuckled and fired the Chippunk into the reeds across from him. The bounty hunter smiled as a minion growled and trudged over to said patch of large grass. “What’s that sound?” He snarled, walking into the reeds. “Why you! GRR!”

Stranger smiled and aimed the Bolamite. He fired into the reeds and the minion’s muffled cries were heard. Stranger ran across the pathway into the reeds, however, he did not go unnoticed. The head minion saw Stranger and snarled. “Stud!” He growled, throwing his shredder. A grunt was heard and the reeds shook some.

“Stranger!” Alex yelled from the reeds. She yelped and covered her mouth as the minions turned to her.

“There’s someone in there!” Stud growled, “Boss, I’ll get ‘em, you get the bounty hunter!”

The head minion smiled and walked into the reeds where Stranger was. Stud, on the other hand, walked over to the reed patch where Alex was. He pulled out his shedders and started to slice them down when he hit something…metal? Stud looked up and saw Alex glaring at him, her face had an unreadable, dark look on it. “Human.” Stud snarled.

“Minion.” Alex snarled back. She grunted and kicked the minion back. “Stay away from me unless you want to die! The last one that attacked me did.”

“Heh! Empty, human threats! Y’all think yer so-UGH!” Stud stumbled back as Alex’s knife, which the human had thrown, stabbed him in the stomach. He snarled and ripped it out of his gut. “Ya think that’ll stop me?”

Alex pulled her pack off her back and reached into it. She snarled and pulled out two smaller knives. “Maybe! Maybe…NOT!” She yelled, throwing them.

Stud let out a gurgle as the knives stabbed him in the throat. He looked at Alex and then fell back. Said human panted and fell to her knees. “I…actually killed someone that didn’t…”

“Git up, kid.”

“Huh?” Alex looked up and saw that the outlaw was gone. Stranger was looking at her with his bright neon eyes. He offered her his hand.

“Le’s go. We’s got more outlaws ta track down.”

Alex nodded and took the bounty hunter’s hand. That’s when she saw the slash on Stranger’s side that was bleeding. “You’re bleeding!” She said, pointing out the obvious.

“Yeah, so?” Stranger asked, raising an eyebrow.

“Lemme help. I can bandage that.”

“No, I’m fine.”

“Stranger, let me take a look. That could get infected.” Alex said, folding her arms.

Stranger growled.

“Stranger, they’ll be there in five minutes, okay? Jus’ let me take a look, please.”

Stranger snarled, but nodded. Alex smiled and walked over to the bounty hunter. She moved his poncho and lifted his shirt. The human hissed through her teeth. “Damn! They gotcha good.” Alex shook her head. She took her pack off and dug in it for a minute. “Hold still. This’ll hurt jus’ a little.”

“Make it quick.” Stranger snarled.

“Oh shut up, fuzz face!” Alex growled before pulling out some bandages. The girl wrapped the wound a couple times and then cut the bandages with her teeth. She tied it tightly and then stood up, putting the pack away. “There. See, that took, what, two minutes?”

“Too long.”

Alex scoffed and walked over to where her knives had fallen. She wiped the blood off the smaller ones with her hand and tucked them into her pack. She then grabbed her larger dagger and placed it into its sheath. “Stranger?” Alex turned and looked around. “Where the hell did you go?”

“Up here!”

Alex looked up and saw Stranger looking down at her from a platform. He smiled a little. “Ya comin’ er not?”

“I’m comin’, fuzz face!” Alex smiled. She ran over to a rope that was hanging from the platform and grunted, jumping a good ways up, before grabbing on. She climbed up and was about to grab the platform when she slipped. But before she could fall too far, Stranger grabbed her wrist and pulled her up onto the platform. “Thanks, Strange.”

Stranger snorted at the nickname and then stood up as Alex did. He motioned for the girl to follow him over to the end of the platform. Stranger looked at the human and then jumped down, landing on his feet. Alex bit her lip and jumped off, yelling “Kimchi!” Stranger rolled his eyes and caught the human. He put her down. “Kimchi?”

“It’s a spicy human food. Good too.” Alex grinned a goofy grin.

Stranger sighed and shook his head. He and Alex walked over and saw the wagon train and it’s Clakker workers getting attacked by outlaw minions. The two snarled at the same time. They looked at each other and then at the outlaws. “There.” Stranger growled, pointing to yet another patch of reeds.

Alex grinned. “You do that.”

“What?”

“Never mind.” Alex sighed. “I’m coming with you, I guess…”

“Good.” Stranger grabbed the human and then jumped down onto the ground. He carried her over to the reed patch and put her down. “Now…let’s-”

Alex ran out of the back of the reeds and stabbed a lone outlaw in the back, sending him to the ground. She huffed and then turned to Stranger. Said bounty hunter walked over and bountied the outlaw. “Ya gotta stop that. We needs ta think.”

“Hmph. Fine. Ignore the fact that…” Alex paused. “Stranger?”

“Yeah?”

“Run.” Alex said before running to the left.

Stranger heard a gun being fired and ran after the human. He grabbed her around the waist and, tucking her under one arm, ran into the abandoned farmhouse. He climbed up the rope and waited for the minions to forget about him. Stranger glared at the human as he put her down. “Now they-”

“Know we’re here, I know, Strange.”

“Don’t call me that.”

“Bite me.” Alex growled. She looked down. “Idea! Listen. Fire a Chippunk. Lead them in here one by one and then trap him.” She looked at Stranger and the bounty hunter looked at her, “See? I’m not all rash actions.”

Stranger rolled his eyes and loaded another Chippunk. He growled at the critter and fire it in the center of the farmhouse as Alex sat down and hung her legs over the edge of the platform, waiting. She didn’t have to wait long, though, soon, a Shredder minion walked into the house and growled. It stomped on the rodent, but was quickly knocked out when Stranger shot it with a Zapfly. Said bounty hunter dropped off the platform and used the vacuum attached to his arm to suck up the outlaw before he climbed back up next to Alex. They repeated this process about four times before no more outlaws were in the Chippunk’s annoying voice’s range. Stranger jumped down and looked up at Alex. “C’mon, I’ll catch ya!”

Alex jumped off the platform and grabbed the rope. She slid down next to Stranger and then looked at him. “Well? We gonna go bounty up some outlaws or not?”

Stranger smirked and walked out of the farmhouse, Alex close behind. He walked over to a trailer and peeked behind it. “A shooter and a shredder. Which one ya want, kid?”

“Shooter.” Alex said, pulled out a knife. “Even though I’m a melee type girl, I might as well learn ta fight shooters.”

Stranger chuckled and fired another Chippunk away from the group. The Shredder growled and ran over to the Chippunk while Stranger followed him. Alex snarled and held one of her smaller knives in between two of her fingers. “Hey! Ugly!” The human yelled.

That got the shooter’s attention. He looked and watched Alex come out of hiding from behind a trailer. The shooter smiled. “Well, well, a human. Hey there, you purty thing.”

Alex snarled and spat to her left. “Wanna try that again, ugly?”

“Ya heard me, ‘uman.” The shooter smiled, walking over to Alex, thinking she was no threat, “I said ‘hey there, you purty thing’.”

“That’s what I thought.” Alex growled. She threw the knife in her hand at the shooter, catching it by surprise. The human smiled as he fell to the ground, dead. “Never call me that like I’m some kind of pet!”

Meanwhile, Stranger was dealing with the Shredder. The bounty hunter snuck up behind the outlaw minion and aimed. He fired a Bolamite at the Shredder and then walked over to the struggling outlaw. Stranger was just about to bounty him up when the Shredder cut the webbing and lunged at him. The bounty hunter dodged and kicked him in the back. “Heh. Ya got out of it. I’ll give ya that, butcha won’t get away!”

“I’ll kill you!” The Shredder snarled.

Stranger smiled and laughed. He fired at the Shredder with a skunk looking creature and vacuumed him up as the outlaw was puking. “Kiddo!”

“Yo!” Alex yelled as she walking into view, dragging the dead outlaw. “Gotcha one!”

Stranger looked at the outlaw and saw one of Alex’s throwing knives sticking out of his head. The bounty hunter smiled and vacuumed it up. “Well, that’s all of ‘em.”

“Where’s Floyd?”

“Exactly wha’ I was thinkin’, kid.” Stranger sighed as they walked towards the middle of the wagon trains.

A trailer’s doors opened to a cautious Clakker peeking out of its home. It noticed the bounty hunter walking up to its trailer, then waddled out dauntlessly. "Whew! Glad you two showed up! I thought we were goners!" It yelled.

Stranger nodded to the overwhelmed feather-head and Alex smiled a little. "'Ey, that's true. The outlaws seemed to have, blocked the way, to town,” Stranger sighed.

"Yeah, those stinky bastards got us good this time! Hmm…well, I think there's a mine shat that'll get us to town.”

“You do?”

“Yeah, hang on.” The Clakker answered Alex as it waddled to a flat piece of land behind the trailers. A metallic bridge was cranked up heavily over its head. "Now, where is it? I could've sworn it was over here. N-no, oh! Maybe over here...Oh! Now what was I lookin' fer again?" The Clakker stopped under the bridge and scratched its head.

Alex sighed and shook her head. Stranger looked at the human and chuckled a little. All of a sudden, the bridge swung down from its pose, and crashed upon the Clakker’s head. Disgusting crunching and gushing noises is what only came from the Clakker as Alex gagged and looked away. Stranger snarled and stood in front of the human, blocking the horrible sight from Alex’s view.

"Oooops. Ha haha ha!" A voice let out a thunderous cackle that came from behind the fallen bridge, it staring down mischievously at the bounty hunter and human.

Alex looked out from behind Stranger and saw the outlaw they were hunting: Filthy Hands Floyd. The human snarled as Stranger walked towards the outlaw, “Filthy Hands Floyd,” He said, looking at the outlaw, “I’m-a takin’ ya in. Alive or a corpse, it’s yer choice.”

“Looks like we’s got company boys,” Floyd smiled, pushing his huge black hat up. He lowered his gun, “Let’s give ‘em a warm welcome.” He smiled and aimed. “Fire.”

“Run!” Stranger and Alex yelled at the same time. The two split into different directions and then hid.

Floyd snarled and looked at his minions. He nudged his head towards the wagon train. “Get ‘em.”

“Consider ‘em got, boss.” One shredder snarled before the two ran.

Floyd snarled as he followed the two. However, he stopped when the Shredders went after Stranger and took a left turn. “Here, human, human, human…” The outlaw smiled as he walked through the trailers, “I won’t hurt you…much. I need yer purty head ta get the money Sekto’ll give me for ya…”

Alex snarled from where she was hidden.

Meanwhile, Stranger was hiding on top of one of the trailers, watching the two Shredders carefully. The bounty hunter unlocked his bow and loaded it with a Stunk. He smiled and waited for the two Shredders to meet up again before he fired. As the two were throwing up, Stranger jumped down in between them and, because he wasn’t affected by the stench, quickly bountied the two up into his vacuum and smiled. “Perfect.” He put his arm down and walked away, “’Ey, kiddo! Ya okay?” Stranger stopped when he didn’t get an answer, “Kiddo? Alex! Where are ya!”

“STRANGER!” Alex’s voice screamed.

Stranger’s triangle shaped ears shot up. He snarled and ran towards the scream. There, he saw Floyd holding Alex close to him with his gun to her head. Stranger growled as he watched Alex struggle in the bigger man’s arms, completely unafraid of the gun that was pressed against her head. “Let. Her. Go.” Stranger snarled.

“No.” Floyd shook his head. He smiled, “She’s got quite a bounty on her head.  13,000.”

Alex flinched as she was reminded of how much she was worth. The girl stopped her struggling and looked at Stranger, a pleading look in her eyes when she saw his jaw drop. “Please…not you too…”

Stranger shook his head, his fiery eyes returning. “You! Let! Her! Go!”

“Fer a bounty hunter, ya sure don’t know what ya go yerself a good bounty, Stranger.” Floyd laughed. He felt Alex wiggle and looked at her, “Don’t struggle, ‘uman, it’ll only make it worse.”

“Chomp! Now!” Alex snarled.

Said Fuzzle popped out of Alex’s hand and bite the outlaw’s face. Floyd screamed and dropped Alex, trying to tear Chomp off his face as the Fuzzle gnawed on him angrily. Alex scrambled away from Floyd over to Stranger. She clung to his leg and the bounty hunter snarled, not at Alex, but at Floyd. Stranger loaded his crossbow with a Bolamite and fired at the struggling outlaw. He looked at Alex and the human let go of his leg and stood up. The two walked over to Floyd and Stranger sucked the outlaw up into his vacuum. He looked at Alex, who was looking for something, and growled. “Let’s go.”

“Wait! What about Chomp? He saved my life!” Alex said, close to tears when she couldn’t find her Fuzzle. “Chomp! Chomp, you there?”

The little Fuzzle hopped out of hiding and jumped into Alex’s arms. Chomp nuzzled Alex’s face and purred a little. The human felt tears well up in her eyes as she hugged the little furball. “Chomp! Thank God!”

Stranger growled, but smiled a little. However, it fell and he looked at the two. “Put tha’ thing ‘way. Ya don’ wan’ people thinkin’ yer crazy, do ya?”

Alex gave the bounty hunter a hurt look and put Chomp into her pack. She looked at the wagon train as Clakkerz started to come out of hiding. “Whoo! Glad that’s over!” One smiled.

“Yeah, but I think I wet my drawers.” Another muttered.

Alex giggled. She looked at Stranger, who smiled.

A male Clakker stumbled out of a trailer, holding his nose, “Whoo! Billy! DAMN! It stinks in thar!”

Alex busted out laughing and Stranger had to chuckle. Both jumped slightly when the mineshaft behind them opened, revealing a male Clakker that had a cowboy hat on his head, smiling at them. “Whoa! Good work on Filthy Hands Floyd thar, Stranger. Good thing ya got ‘im too ‘cause this mineshaft leads strait ta town! You bes’ be goin’, Stranger, we can take of this by ourselves now that Floyd’s gone.”

“Thank you.” The human smiled at the Clakker when Stranger didn’t answer. Alex grabbed Stranger’s arm. She nudged her head towards the shaft.

Stranger nodded and then walked towards the shaft. Several Clakkers stopped to look at the bounty hunter and the human that was clutching to his arm. They all blinked and shook their heads before going back to work. Stranger and Alex walked through the shaft and reached a bridge. A moment later, they came to a ledge that broke off. Below, was a small lake of water. Human and bounty hunter looked at each other and Alex grinned. She took a deep breath and ran. “KIMCHI!” She yelled before jumping into the water.

Stranger chuckled and jumped in after the human had swam out of the small lake. The two looked at each other and Alex laughed as Stranger shook the water off his head. The bounty hunter looked at Alex as he wrung the water out of his hat, “Somethin’ funny?”

“You!” Alex laughed as Stranger slapped his wet hat on his head. She giggled as the bounty hunter grabbed her arm and started to pull her gently over to the exit of the cave. Alex smiled and pushed the bounty hunter away. “I can walk, ya know!”

“C’mon, kiddo.”

Alex growled and opened her mouth to say something, but a voice interrupted hers. “Which one activates the timer again?” A minion’s voice growled. The two turned their heads and saw two minions standing on top of the old mill they had pasted when they first went to bounty Floyd.

The Shooter’s partner growled, “The blue one.”

“You sure? I thought it was the green one.”

“Look,” The second Shooter growled, “I’m tellin’ ya it’s the blue one!”

“Ok, okay! Sheesh. I’ll push the green one!” The first shooter reached and pressed the green button before its partner could stop it.

“What? No, you idiot! You-”

It was cut off as the mill exploded. Alex winced and Stranger growled, chuckling slightly. He watched the minion’s body parts fly everywhere and sighed. “No moolah from them…” He shook his head. The bounty hunter felt Alex tug on his poncho. “What’s up, kid?”

“What about in there?” Alex asked, pointing to the building across from them.

In the farmhouse, two minions trudged around. Behind them, there were two barrels marked with flames. Stranger smiled at the human and then loaded his crossbow. “Perfect…more outlaws, more moolah.” He purred.

Alex watched Stranger slide down the hill and then followed, holding Chomp close just in case she needed his help. The two walked, Alex close behind Stranger, over to the house. One of the Shooters saw the bounty hunter and alerted his partner. The two smirked and aimed their guns when Stranger split to the side, leaving Alex out in the open. Said human blinked. There she was, standing there with a Fuzzle in her arms and two guns pointed at her. What did she do? Curse the hell out of Stranger for leaving her there as the two minions walked over to the frozen human.

Stranger, however, heard every word and was smiling. He had a plan. Just as one minion got within arm’s reach of the human, the bounty hunter fired a Stunk. As the two outlaws gagged, Stranger whipped around behind them and knocked them out. He took all the money they had, which wasn’t much, and then pocketed it before sucking the two up. “Kid, you okay? Kid?”

Alex was on her knees, gagging. Stranger’s eyes widened and he quickly picked the young girl up and carried her out of the Stunk’s range. He patted the human on the back as she attempted to throw up. “Kid, ya okay? I fergot ‘umans can’t take the smell of Stunk’s very well.”

“You…” Alex gasped, “Left me out there with two guns pointed at me!” She started to go on, but gagged as her stomach heaved. “Oh God!” Alex managed before her stomach lurched again.

After about five minutes, she finally stopped gagging and her stomach felt a little better. The human staggered to her feet and glared at Stranger. “You…owe me.” She muttered, giving the bounty hunter daggers.

“I’ll give ya another pet. Let’s go. Chump cash in time.” Stranger growled, helping the human up.

“It’d better be a flyer.” Alex groaned, holding her stomach.

Stranger smiled and shook his head. “Let’s go, kiddo.”

“I’m coming.”

The two looked at each other and started to walk across when the bridge shook and fell apart. Alex let out a scream as she fell while Stranger simply growled and grunted as he hit the ground. Quickly, the bounty hunter stood up and caught Alex before she hit the ground. “Ya okay, kid?”

Alex panted as Stranger put her down. She brushed her bangs out of her face and nodded. “Yeah-Yeah, I think so. Thanks for savin’ my butt. Again.”

“No problem, kiddo. Let’s go.”

“After you.” Alex said, motioning for Stranger to lead the way.

The bounty hunter smiled and walked in front of the human.
