Hehe, Its Finally About Time

'Bait? what's that?' Just as such thought appeared in his mind, suddenly, a huge bear shadow leaped out from the underbrush, landing squarely on top of Ram and holding him down with an iron grip.

Then its laughter boomed through the clearing. "Haha, bastard, we finally caught you! I would like to see how you can escape now!"

"What the hell?! Get off me!" Ram yelled, struggling beneath the weight of Sid's transformed bear form. "I'm sorry, guys! Let me go; I'll explain everything!"

He knew his friends were likely upset, but this was not the way he envisioned them venting their frustration.

"Stop squirming!" Sid growled, tightening his hold. "You're lucky I don't just throw you into the river. We're tired of your secrets!"

Ignoring Ram's protests, Sid glanced over at Liam, who was already rummaging through his pack. "Tie him up. We'll let Mai decide what to do. Also, stuff something in his mouth."
