“Are we almost there yet?” Taylor asked impatiently “I’m still bleeding here you know!”
“I’m sorry, again.” Fugo sighed as he too was getting anxious but understanding her worry. “I really underestimated how unstable the road is at the moment and I have to drive carefully.”
"Why is she still bleeding like that, it should have stopped a long time ago." Asch asked with worry.
"The only explanation is that she's been Cursed." Fugo stated.
"Cursed, what do mean Cursed?" Heat Gabumon questioned anxiously.
"As a side job I very seldom do some bounty hunting." Fugo explained "And I hear a lot of things by listening in on other people's conversations, very interesting things."
"Wait if you work at the Weapon's Shack why do you need a side job, doesn't Sakura pay you enough?" Asch asked with eyebrow raised.
"Oh she pays me very well, but before this war began and I had to take over Zeta's job, I was in the Weapon's manufacturing facility in the Southern Branch.
Let me tell you, it's boring as hell watching weapons and other things being produced on a conveyer belt, and my other job as well as my previous job is pretty much the same thing until late in December. So naturally I need some excitement or else I'll go crazy." Fugo explained.
"Can't you find another job if both jobs bore you that much?" Asch questioned.
"Oh definitely, however I'm a firm believer in Utilitarianism, especially John Mill Stuart's interpretation of Utilitarianism ethics and the Weapon's Shack and my other job satisfy that need." Fugo stated “Anyway back to the bounty hunting stuff, I hear many rumors and I think I remember hearing something that relates to Taylor's condition."
"Well spit it out already!" Heat Gabumon said impatiently as he was not interested in hearing about Fugo's many jobs or Utilitarianism ethics.
"Right..." Fugo sighed but understood the beast's impatience "Anyway one of the many rumors I heard was about people who use the power of Darkness and what they can do. You said that this person uses such powers correct?"
"Yeah he did, and boy he really caught me off guard. He also acted like he knew me, like some kind of stalker.” Taylor shuddered.
“Right however the important part here is the use of the powers of darkness, someone who is powerful enough with them are able to Curse people and do things like make wounds that cannot be healed.” Fugo continued.
“So I’m screwed?!” Taylor shouted in alarm “You’re saying I’m going to bleed to death and there’s nothing I can do about it?!”
“Actually no, you didn’t let me finish.” Fugo sighed “The wounds can’t be healed normally because it’s not continuously pouring out blood, it’s pouring out the same amount of blood you get from the cut you would normally get this entire time. Think of it like how people recycle water by continuously filtering it until it’s drinkable, only obviously the blood is not being filtered.”
“How the hell does that work?” Asch asked as he raised his eyebrow.
“I honestly have no idea.” Fugo shook his head “But the point is that while the wound can’t be healed normally we can purify it so it can be healed.”
“Well how the heck do we go about doing that, none of us here are exorcists or anything like that!” Heat Gabumon.
“Well an Exorcist would be one way, though those are extremely rare these days.” Fugo continued as he concentrated on the road ahead, though he started to notice something in the distance. “But there are 2 others we have access to, Borock-bot and Mistress Vixy have the ability to purify something like that through their methods and the Weapons Shack also has a supply of Crosses or Holy Water imbued with Holy Power that can get rid of it.
I unfortunately don’t have any those on my person since such Curses are rare but once we get to the Fexnodrome and Vixy we should be able to take care of it no problem.”
“You hear that Taylor, you’ll be okay!” Heat Gabumon cheered.
“IT’S NOT LIKE SHE WOULD DIE OVER SOMETHING STUPID LIKE THIS, THEN AGAIN IT WOULDN’T SURPRISE ME EITHER.” SAM quipped.
“Thanks for the vote of confidence SAM.” Taylor said dryly.
“You’ll need all the confidence you can get lady.” Fugo stated seriously “Looks like the people Wily invited to his party are here.”
“Holy crap….” Asch gasped as his eye widened and his pupils shrunk.
Ahead in the distance was an angry mob heading for the Fexnodrome with pitch forks and torches. And if one listened closely they were yelling bloody murder for the Resistance’s heads.
(Yeah I took a bit longer with this than I should have but with school and everything I didn't have the energy to finish this. I also wanted to talk to Mirby about this sort of thing since most of this was assumed, luckily it was assumed pretty accurately thanks to my knowledge of Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest and Ninja Lou's profile regarding his weaknesses.
Also I suggest someone run out of the van recklessly so Asch can run out of the van recklessly.)
