[b][u]The Bear[/u][/b] [i]Heavy snow fell on the dojo and the mountain it rested on as winter had finally set in. The path leading up was slippery and dense with packed down snow, but something still climbed up it on foot. Out of the heavy fog, a figure could be seen, but it wasn't quite human. On its all fours, a large metal bear with a cape on its back crawled up the steep hill. As it drew closer, a hammer and sickle could stood out on the cape. It walked quickly on the slippery slope and had glowing red eyes that could be seen through the snow. It reached the top and stood up, towering over anyone near it. It approached the gate with a low, grumbling noise.[/i]
