I hope ope you like this one and sorry if it took too long or if it is bad.
Katyusha had awoken in the middle of the night to hear something crashing, causing her to wake up and scared her slightly. As she was had gotten scared, she bumped into something and heard a cage open. It was dark out, she couldn't see a thing at this moment, she wished this place had some functional sources of light. "Sssh, you'll get me caught!" Said a familiar voice. Was that Kiku? She glanced throughout the darkness until she spotted Kiku which a barely functional lantern and a dog beside him? The creature looked certainly like a canine, but was it a dog? It gave off some sort of a vibe, like that of a Shiba Inu, yet it had no fur on it's tail and it's eyes, seemed ...different. "You still have that paper I gave you , right?" Kiku asked with a faint frown , as his gaze fell onto the Ukrainian woman.
"Yes...why do you ask?" Katyusha slowly walked , backwards, away from Kiku until she felt something furry and large behind her. She heard a growling-like sound coming from right behind her.
"No...one of those things are out...what have you done?" Katyusha must've by-a-mistake managed to open the cage , but which? She then felt the creature nuzzle her. It was Vedmid'M'yaso. "One of those bears, they're out." Kiku responded , his canine companion started to growl at Vedmid'M'yaso, the hell bear growling at it as well. "We need to run, now." He responded before grabbing the Ukrainian's hand and starting to run, his canine companion following , as well as Vedmid'M'Yaso, yet Kiku didn't know that the bear was following them.
The two had managed to exit the building and were running away from the once-Russian capital, the tame mutated bear and mutated canine continuing to follow them as they did so. When Kiku and Katyusha were far enough away from the city, he let go of her hand. "It won't be soon until they find out that we're gone, though could you hand me the paper." Katyusha didn't hand him the paper and just glanced at Kiku with her teal eyes.
"No, unless you tell me what is on this paper..." Kiku shot a glare at Katyusha for a moment.
"I won't tell you what's on the paper unless you give it to me." Katyusha frowned and then gave the man the piece of paper. "It's a map." Kiku stated, turning around for a moment with a frown.
"A map to where?"
"The Bern Republic." Kiku then started to walk and Katyusha followed. What was the Bern Republic? Most likely a nation of some sort, though why was Kiku heading towards it? Katyusha didn't say a thing afterward and continued to follow Kiku.
Yet, after a few minutes , Kiku stopped walking and Katyusha heard some item open. "Here," Kiku said , handing her a gun, Katyusha cautiously took the gun, a pistol of some sort. There was another gun in Kiku's other hand which he was most likely going to use. Not long after though, the duo , as well as the mutated bear and canine heard howling. "Feral hounds," Kiku murmured , the mutated canine started to growl as well as Vedmid'M'yaso. Suddenly, Katyusha saw the mutated hounds, they looked similar to the mutated canine , except some had different fur colors and had no tails. The mutated canine growled at the now approaching pack of mutated hounds before rushing towards them. "Pochi!" Kiku yelled before he pointed his gun at the hounds. It wasn't long after that Vermid'M'yaso let out a furious roar before charging at the feral hounds. Katyusha aimed her gun at the hounds , shakily . As the hounds advanced closer, though some were getting wounded and killed because of Pochi and Vermid'M'yaso, Kiku started to shoot at them and Katyusha tried to as well.
Suddenly, one of the hounds rushed towards Kiku, Katyusha clenched her gun before she shot it in the head. After she shot the beast in the head, it's body fell onto the ground , before it bled out onto the somewhat white snow. Yet, it wasn't long until Katyusha was rushed at by one of the hounds, who bit into her arm. Katyusha screamed in pain as she tried to get it off her arm. Vermjd'M'yaso heard Katyusha screamed and rushed towards his owner , before he bit into the feral hound's neck with his sharp teeth, the cracking of bones could be heard as the mutated bear did so, before he let go of the now lifeless body. Minutes went past and all the hounds were dead. "You're wounded," Kiku stated glancing at her arm for a moment , which was bleeding from the bite. Kiku then pulled out some bandages, "Luckily I stole these from your siblings' little 'castle' when they weren't looking." he continued before he wrapped her wound.
The group continued to walk, until a snow storm began . "Great ," Kiku murmured , before stopping right beside a nearly destroyed building , that was surprisingly still standing. "I guess we'll have to stay here until this storm ends." He murmured to himself. Katyusha sighed in relief, she was personally glad they had to stop as she was tired and her feet felt swore. The group entered the building and when Katyusha entered the building, chose a place for herself to rest and did so. Yet as she slept, she couldn't help but feel something furry sleeping beside or nearby her.
