"Ya but like, your arm! It's-"
"Healing. Very fast." Yuri interrupted. "Faster then any other man I've seen. Definitely faster than a poor shepards..."
"YURI! ARE YOU INSINUTATING SOMETHING?" Bella asked him as she turned to him.
"No, I'm "insinuating" something."
"....oh."

Cannon laighed slightly, still extremely sore. "Yeah... About that. Guess you two deserve the truth..." He tried to stand up.
-
Bella helped him up, but he was able to find his footing well enough. "Truth? What do you mean? You...you've been lying to us....?" Bella asked him with her bright blue eyes staring up at him.
-
"Only about being a shepherd. Aside from that I've told the truth. You remember when I said I came to the forest hunting my friend's killer? I was hunting Diana."
-
"WHAAAAAT?!" Bella asked in surprise. "That's...that's crazy talk!" "But he was surprisingly efficient at it." Yuri said. "And clearly, he has been bred for combat. Judging by his fast healing..."
-
"That's the understatement of the century. You're looking at a Mandalorian Supercommando." He smiled. "I was sent to hunt down Diana because she was one of the Coulbourns. They killed a friend of mine and declared war on my clan... Speaking of clans, we aught to get to Ulfric before yours gwts itself killed."
-
"I don't know what a mandarin Super command is, but it sounds as awesome as you always are!" Bella complimented Can. "Wait...so that means...YES! I HELPED YOU FIND THE KILLER! SHERLOCK BELLA AND HER TRUSTY SIDE KICK DR.CANDEROUSE HAVE STRUCK AGAIN! This time, "Justice. Served...cold."" Bella went on. It didn't look like she was going to stop at this rate if someone didn't stop her.
-
Cannon couldn't help but laugh. "Oh yeah, and I should probably introduce myself for real. Sergeant RC-3011, Cannon, at your service." He gave a small salute. "We should go to your father now."

"Okay Bella, let Cannon have a break from your little shenanigans. We need to talk on the way, because when I left to find you, Ulfric had gotten the location of the Grenwalds, announced it publicly then ran off to war. Time is of the essence." Yuri looked to Cannon. "Can you walk, Cannon?"
-
He nodded. "And fight if I have to."
-
"Good, good." Yuri said. He turned to walk east but he quickly turned around to talk to him again. "But hold on, who put you up to the contract on Diana? Your fellow mandalorians?"
-
Edited by Cannon011: 6/9/2017 3:48:17 AM"The Dojo." He replied, continuing to walk.
-
Yuri's eyes went wide for a moment, but all he did was give off a chuckle. Meanwhile, Bella looked like she was holding her breath in excitement. "Ha! Well, isn't that something. You wouldn't happen to know a man named Royal, would you?" Yuri asked Can as he walked with him.
-
"Not very well, but I have met him a few times." Replied the commando.
-
"Mmm. Well, found him in the woods last week. Actually, I helped him rescue Lilly Coldbourne. Diana had her taken prisoner in a shack in the middle of the woods. That was the red flag that made me wanna help you, if I'm being honest." He told Can.
-
Cannon nodded. "I had no idea he was here, honestly."
-
"Well then I suppose you haven't contacted the dojo at all since your arrival here then." Yuri stated as they continued to walk. Bella held Cannons wrist as they walked, fascinated by the conversation.
-
"Well, I didn't bring any communications. I didn't know if you people would search me or not."
-
"I suppose that we didn't in the end..." Yuri said with a hint of disappointment and annoyance. "WAIT." Bella started. "So Canny, since you are with the dojo, doesn't that make you like...a superhero?!"
-
"No. I'm definitely not a super hero." He laughed.
-
"Well, you are to me!" Bella declared. Yuri gave off a chuckle as well as the three continued their way through the woods. They eventually made it out to the Kakusa grove, where Can had cross over before to make his way into the Tokage ranks. But now, he would have to cross east, to the side of the grenwalds. The three approached the middle of the grove, and Yuri stopped there. "This will be as far as I have ever gone past where I was born." He said as he looked at the grass, as if a line had formed in front of him. "Once we cross, I feel as if we have many decisions ahead of us. You especially, Cannon." He told Cannon.
-
"What else is new? Let's go stop a war." Cannon replied reassuringly, smiling slightly.
-
"Were it so easy, Cannon." Yuri said as he walked over to him. "I do not think we can stop this war. This is the first and final battle, in a sense. Our clans only exist because one must destroy the other. Why that is, I do not know. That is how I was raised. But even though Bella is safe, I do not think that will be enough to sway her father. He will continue his assault on the grenwalds, and it is likely that the grenwalds will not stop until we are destroyed as well." "Why?!" Bella asked. "I know the grenwalds are mean, but if Canny has taught me anything, it's that no one has to die! So why can't we come to an understanding?!" Yuri knelt down and looked Bella in the eyes. "Bella, I agree with you. Truly I do. But many won't. Old woulds have taken a long time to heal...trying to bring peace may be futile."
-
"We still have to try." Cannon decided, then blinked in surprise. Had he really just said that? [i]These people must be getting to me... I'm losing my edge.[/i]
-
"Ya! We can do it!" Bella agreed. Yuri looked at the two, stood up, and gave off a hint of a smile. "Then let it be so. Let's move, every second we waist is another second the sides kill each other." The group made their way across to the east, and entered the grove. As they walked for a few hours, they began to see crimson stains like the green woods of the sanctuary they walked through. Then, as they walked more, they saw bodies. Green and purple cloaks lined the ground. There were not many right now, but the battle had clearly begun.
-
"Osik... Looks like they started the party without us." Cannon muttered, reverting to his own language for swear words.
