"Ya! Well, at least you're here!
....and I guess it's a good thing your goat led you here, huh?" She asked Can as she skipped through the tall lush grass.

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.
-
"Um... Very carefully?" Cannon replied with a sheepish smile. [spoiler]Pun intended.[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]hue[/spoiler] Bella spoke up then. "Canny was able to convince them to stand down! No one got hurt at all papa! Well, mostly!" "That so...?" Ulfric said as he observed the two Grenwalds. "Never in history have we ever managed to capture Grenwalds...they always managed to get away or have themselves killed. Fascinating!" "Ya? Then why don't you open a damn Zoo then?" Ethan asked. "Then everyone can see us." "Watch your tone." Ulfric scolded as he looked down at his daughter. "Your life is in my hands, boy. Luckily we won't hurt you unless we have to."
-
"What do we do with them?" Cannon asked.
-
Ulfric snapped his fingers as a dozen Tokage clan members entered the room. "They'll be put away for questioning." Ulfric said. "Then...all we need is the location out of them so we can find the grenwald base....yes. It's exciting, VERY exciting." Ulfric told them. "But enough of that! You two have succeeded flawlessly in your initiation! Congratulations!" "YAY!!!" Bella let out as she hugged Cannons arm. "WE DID IT! WHOO!" Ulfric laughed from Bella's enthusiasm. "Yes, you two have done well. Now, all you must do is swear the oath."
-
"The... Oath?" Cannon asked, a little bit unsure of himself now. He wasn't sure if his integrity was worth being broken for this.
-
"Of course Canny!" Bella told him. "We have to swear an oath to be apart of this! It's like, the rules or something." "Well, you aren't wrong there." Ulfric said. He turned to Can. "It's nothing you need to worry about, really. It's simply stating you won't betray us, won't reveal our secrets and won't betray our culture. Nothing you can't handle!"
-
"I don't doubt that, but... It's just a big step..."
