"So these are the prisoners?" Said a voice , as footsteps echoed throughout the room. The voice sounded somewhat familiar to Katyusha, yet she didn't say a word. "These are pathetic excuses of men, how could my enemies even think to send out just weak little morsels out to defeat our army and my little sister and I. Are they really that blind?" The voice continued as it continued to walk as well.
"You shut your mouth you pathetic excuse for a-" Suddenly Arthur stopped talking and screamed in pain, causing Katyusha to get goosebumps.
"Next time, if you do that, I will , kill you." The man then continued to walk , and after a couple of moments, Katyusha recognized who it was. That hair, that nose, those eyes. It , was her little brother, Ivan. "Pathetic, pathetic , path-" Ivan stopped at her cage , his violet gaze fell onto her, "Is that really you, my big sister, Katyusha?" He said to her, his gaze become somewhat calm. Katyusha didn't know what to say in response, mostly because of how nervous she was, yet after a couple of minutes, she gathered enough courage to actually say something.
"D-Da , " She murmured quietly and Ivan smiled faintly, before unlocking her cage. He then brought her out of the cage and lead her to the exit of the room, as well as receiving glares as she followed her brother. She then looked behind for a moment in Kiko's direction, he was frowning for a moment and shook his head. Katyusha then looked forward once more, she felt terrible , yet she still had that paper Kiku had given her and she would keep it safe , she hoped that Kiku and her could still be friends. Not to mention, she wouldn't mind escaping of helping her and allies escape,yet she doubted that they would trust her now. A tear went down her cheek as they finally exited the room.
"Just wait until Natalya sees you, I bet she will be very happy, in fact, why don't you go find her. She is probably with the Bears." Ivan stated, glancing at his sister for a moment as he did so.
"B-bears?"
"Da, tame Hell bears, we stole some when they were just itty bitty Cubs and raised them as our own. Not to mention, some have started to breed, which means a second generation of tamed Hell bears. " Ivan giggles slightly after he spoke.
"where are these bears located?" Ivan stopped walking for a moment.
"The East side of this building is where we keep them, " He said before he started to walk off once more. It wasn't long before Katyusha went in to the east part of the building and spotted cages with Hell bears in them. The cages were, in comparison, much more clean than the prison cages . She then spotted what had to be her little sister, Natalya , with one of the Hell bears , who had a tag on one of it's ears , who was growling and roaring at her. "Why won't you listen to my orders you ball of fur!"
"Natalya?" Natalya stopped yelling at the bear for a moment and turned around, a knife now in the teenaged girl's hand and pointed at her sister.
"You..." She murmured with a frown before putting her knife away. "Why are you here? Why are you here , you have been gone for too many years!" Natalya was obviously somewhat upset that's her sister was here , yet, she surprisingly started to cry. "Why... Why..." Katyusha's maternal instincts had then kicked in as she then approached her sister for a moment and hugged her.
"Sssh...sssh." Katyusha murmured to her little sister, stroking her long , yet straight blonde hair, calmly. "Why were you gone for so long?" Natalya said as she slowly stopped crying, this had been the first time she had seen her little sister cry, had she really missed her that much?
"I don't know..." Katyusha responded to her little sister, feeling somewhat guilty as she did so, she had a bit of a clue on how she had disappeared, a Governmental Shelter. "Yet , why were you yelling at that bear?" She asked her younger sister with a slight frown.
"Vedmid'M'yaso? He never listens orders, that God damn bear!" Katyusha then stopped hugging her sister for a moment before standing up and approaching the Hell bear. The bear roared at Katyusha for a moment ,and Natalya then said "What the Hell are you doing? He won't follow your orders!" Katyusha ignored her sibling and then said "Vedmid'M'yaso," holding her hand out towards the bear, "Stop roaring at me, immediately." The bear did as told, causing Natalya to be surprised. The tamed Hell bear then sniffed Katyusha's hand for a moment and nudged it, Katyusha smiled and tried to pet the large bear's fur. "This is strange, I must report this to big brother." Natalya stated before walking off to tell to her big brother.
The day went by so quickly, as she felt that just minutes ago , she had been jailed and put in a cage. Now she was heading to dinner with her brother and was free. Not to mention, it was starting to get a bit late and her stomach growled hungrily at the thought of food.
When she arrived at the table, she ate her food in a hungrily, yet somewhat plot or manner. "So, Natalya told me , you tamed our little untamable one, our bear meat." Ivan stated as Katyusha nodded in response.
"Yet, why did you name him that in Ukrainian? It doesn't make that much sense to me ."
"Because." Natalya said before talking a bite of her food and eating it before she continued "If he wasn't tamed , we would turn him into some delectable bear meat." This comment made Katyusha not as hungry as she was before , and she stared at her food for a moment.
"This meat is..."
"No, why the hell would it be that? We hadn't killed any bears soon enough. It just some God damn cattle meat we traded and shit." Natalya rolled her eyes for a moment and Katyusha sighed in relief as she continued to eat her meal.
After the dinner had finished, Katyusha went to go feed the Bears, well, actually "her" bear as Natalya wouldn't let her feed any other Hell bear. After she arrived at Vedmid'M'yaso's cage, she carefully put the food into the cage. When she had finished putting the food to the mutated bear's cage, he rushed over to it and ate it hungrily, only taking a few seconds for him to finish. He then tried to approach Katyusha, yet was unsuccessful. Katyusha smiled faintly and stroked the Hell Bear's fur . Vedmid'M'yaso made a purring-like sound in delight as he enjoyed being petted . She giggled slightly before sat down nearby then cage. She started to fall asleep, yet tried her best not fall into a deep slumber nearby the cage. Yet, it seemed like luck was not on her side at this moment and she fell asleep.
That night, she had an unusual dream, a dream that felt more like a memory that she had forgotten. "Damn this bitch is heavy," Murmured a voice, as Katyusha felt as if she were being carried, not to mention, her vision was quite fuzzy.
"Yeah, but it'll be worth it, I don't go searching through shelters for nothing you know." Said another voice.
"Yeah but she's too fucking heavy, I'm no god damn pack animal and the snow storm is starting to pick up."
"You know what, fuck it, I don't want to here you complainin' about some heavy-ass bitch who you can barely carry because you're too fuckin' weak. Just leave her here in the snow, I doubt she'll go anywhere. We'll get her tomorrow and sell her to those Raidin' whatever's , okay?"
Suddenly , Katyusha had felt as if she was being put down onto the cold , yet somewhat soft , snow.
