"A friend of mine. His name was Alex. He could be rude at times, but he was generally a nice guy."
Cannon told her.
"I don't like talking about it though, so please don't tell anyone else. I don't like being the center of attention."
He added to ensure she didn't leak any of the info to Diana by accident. She may know he was an assasin, but he didn't want her finding out who he was.

"No! This is our initiation Can! And you should want to take these two back to the camp more than anyone!" Bella almost yelled. "I can't believe you two!" She said to the grenwalds. "What did he do?!" "What the hell-" "Yes! We did chase Canny!" Abby interrupted Can. "We are evil people and didn't want him in our land! So we tried to kill him!" Abby seemed to cover for Can. But...why? "Ya! You are!" Bella agreed. "But at least you admit to it! That's the first step to being a nice person!" She continued on with an innocent smile on her face.
-
He shot a slightly confused look at Abby before nodding. "You're right... Do you happen to have any blindfolds?" He asked Bella.
-
"I always keep some handy!" Bella said as she let her arrow down and took two blindfolds out of her pocket. "...for...reasons...I won't tell you about!" Bella clarified.
-
"Um... Ok..." Cannon replied, picking up his bow. "You want to blindfold them?"

Edited by Inflatablepants: 5/12/2017 2:15:05 AM"Uh, YES!" Bella said maybe too excitedly as she ran over to the two. She was actually to short to reach Abby, so the starkly pale looking woman eyed Can as she went to her knees to help Bella put the fold around her head. She didn't have as much luck with Ethan. "Screw off, kid!" Ethan told Bella. "I'm not letting you parade me through the damned forest blind!" Bella twirled on her heels and put her fists on her hips as she looked to Can for help.
-
Cannon walked up and puched the guy in the gut to make him double over. "Look, mate. I want to help the two of you. I'm not a cultist, but I need to keep my cover if I'm going to be any help so why don't you make both our lives a bit easier and stop being a pain in my shebs." He whispered, taking the blindfold and tieing it around his eyes. "Got anything to tie their hands with?"
-
"YUP!" Bella said in her usual manner as she took out more cloth from her cloak and handed it to Can. Ethan was quiet, but that could've just been because Cannon winded him.
-
Cannon tied their hands, Ethan's he tied tightly, but the girl's were tied rather loosely. They looked secure, but she could easily pull her hands free if she really tried.
-
"Mind if we get this show on the road? Dinner is waiting at home after all." Ethan said rather sarcastically. Though this sparked a bit of a giggle from Bella who grabbed the man's hands and began to walk him back the way her and Cannon had come from. Abby looked up at Cannon silently, but she was relaxed.
-
Cannon took her by the hand and began to lead her along. "I'll try to help you two get away as soon as I can." He whispered quietly.
-
"That's the best thing that was gunna come out of this situation." Abby told Can. "Thank you, at least for not killing me or Ethan that is."
-
"You're welcome. So... Why'd you believe me? I really didn't expevt you to." He asked, still in a hushed tone.
-
"The dojo already got in contact with the Grenwalds. Ethan and I were sent here to scout out the area just in case things went wrong for YOU..." she whispered back. "Only three people know right now...but you're taking a gamble. Ethan isn't exactly...pain tolerant." She told Can. Bella seemed to be skipping behind Ethan as she lead him forward.
-
"I'll do my best to keep him from getting hurt, though with his mouth that's going to be hard... I'm guessing you know my mission?"
-
"No. Details were kind of a blur. We just did as we were told." She informed Can.
-
"I got sent to assassinate one of the Coulbourns." He told her.
-
"What...? One of the Coldbourne's is here?" Abby asked him.
-
"Yep." Cannon replied, continuing along.
-
"Oh jeez...that's bad." Abby said. "Well I can't help you much from inside a prison cell. So you're on your own then."
-
"Who said you'll be in there long?" He replied.
-
Abby smirked underneath her hood as Can told her that. But it quickly faded. "Don't make promises you can't keep." She told him. After a few hours of Bella rambling on about the forest, the group had finally reached the tokage camp. "YES! WE'RE BACK! I'm so tired..." Bella said as she stood in front of the cave entrance.
-
"Yup." Is all Cannon said as they entered the camp.
-
Can and Bella walked the Grenwalds into town, which resulted in some surprising stares. The cloaked people gave gestures of being impressed as the two walked through town with their prisoners while Bella still skipped along as she lead Ethan.
-
Cannon glanced at Bella. "Where should we take them?"
-
"We'll take him to dad! He'll know what to do!" Bella told Can as they approached the now familiar door. They walked the prisoners through and arrived in the waterfall room where Ulfric seemed to be praying. He suddenly stopped, stood Up, and turned around to see the two enter with the prisoners. "....Whoa." Ulfric put briefly. "You...you actually captured a grenwald?!" "Two!!!" Bella exclaimed. Ulfric walked down the steps with a face of awe. He looked to Cannon. "How did you manage that?!" He asked him.
