They quickly hurry out of Cantha's hiding spot, but the soldiers manage to catch Cantha. Kitty takes a gun from the stranger, and gets him to tell him what's happening. The stranger asks her to get him to the temple, but, as she wants to know what's happening, she tells him that it is a long way away, even though they are standing right next to it. He tells her that if she takes him to [[Blood Rock|the temple]], then he'll help rescue the professor, though Kitty doubts whether he would be able to rescue him, he says that he has got more knowledge than her. She then reveals to the stranger that he had actually been next to the temple all along, and the stranger proceeds to perform some kind of ritual. | |||
