Chapter 5 - Start Of A Friendship...

As Damon was about to release the arrow from the bow string, he saw how close the Mama Bear was holding the Baby Bear. He got slightly suspicious of it as he jumped across tree branches, getting close. He then managed to see a group of people, aiming guns at the bears, they all shot Mama Bear but Damon wasn't worried since their species were built to tank bullets and such due to their tough skin and fur. Despite knowing this, the bullets still managed to hurt the Mama Bear and when Damon saw this, he looked closely at the guns the group of poachers were using, he saw that they were modified guns that had the ability to shoot out guns with higher caliber...

They continuously shot the Mama Bear, brutally hurting her as she bled out but still standing and protecting her youngling which was the one Baby Bear. Damon saw this act and got slightly annoyed at how rough and brutal they were at attacking the Mama Bear, Damon frowned slightly then placed an arrow on the bow string and aiming down onto one of the poachers. He slowly pulled back the string and turned on his special eye, [Let's call it... Weakness Eye] he stared down onto the poachers, seeing where their weak spots were as it looked like time slowed down for him. He let the bow string go as the arrow slowly glide through the air, slicing it and then quickly penetrating through one of the poacher's neck, instantly killing the poacher as their eyes get lifeless and his body flops onto the ground...

There were two other poachers who then flicked their sights onto Damon as they aimed at him and pulled the trigger, emptying out their magazine towards Damon. Damon jumped around and slid down the trees, running into bushes, dodging the bullets. As he dove into a bush, he got grazed slightly but it didn't really affect him as much then he dashed out, having three arrows loaded into his bow. Dashing out and releasing all three arrows towards the two poachers, it grazed one of the poacher and struck another's thigh, slowing down their movements. The Mama Bear saw an opportunity as she hid her youngling and dashed across, pouncing onto the injured poacher and gnawing on their face...

When the Mama Bear was done, the last remaining poacher had already finished reloading and gunned down the Mama Bear, finishing her off and leaving her dead. Damon saw the action, seeing how the Mama Bear sacrificed herself- He then dropped his bow and walked up to the last poacher, the poacher noticed how Damon was approaching empty handed and got confident as he dropped his gun. Damon got into a slight weird stance, his hands were up like on a boxing stance but his feet placements weren't of a boxing stance, it was more planted than free flow like a boxer...

The poacher charged forward with a flying roundhouse kick, Damon slightly moved his feet, leaned left and threw a right cross- catching the poacher's jaw and he also managed to hold onto the leg of the poacher and pulling forward, making the poacher fall over onto their back. Damon quickly moved forward, grabbing the enemy's arm, pulling it up as he ascended into the air. He wrapped his legs around his opponent's head and the arm that was already in his grasp, dragging the body into a Triangle Choke. Damon slowly tighten his grip of his legs, it hurts Damon as well but he endured the pain and was slowly choking the poacher, their face turning redder than before. Damon was about to pull close, dislocating the guy's arm but then the Baby Bear ran out with bright red eyes and clawed the hell out of the poacher's face...

Damon got a bit shocked as he let go of the hold, the poacher was bleeding out with his face not even visible. Damon kicked the guy away as the Baby Bear chased the body, attacking it continuously- Damon ignored it and walked over to his bow, grabbing it then looked back at the dead body and seeing how the Baby Bear was still clawing it. He slowly walked towards the Baby Bear as it frightened the youngling, Damon exhaled softly and saw how easily agitated the youngling was. He was breathing slowly, hoping the youngling would mimic his methods while moving closer to the baby bear as the baby bear did the same thing, breathing slowly and crawled towards Damon slowly. Damon stopped and crouched, nudging his hands and hinting the youngling to come closer, the baby bear moved closer then headbutted Damon's hand softly...

Damon petted the baby and carried it up slowly and observing it's appearance and movements, the youngling stared at Damon and licked his face, that caught Damon by surprise but he smiled softly then slowly speaking, "Hmm... you're adorable, aggressive and strong. I like you.. I wonder if I can keep you?" he said, jokingly and chuckled it off, placing the youngling down. He looked at it as it just clinged onto Damon's leg, Damon sighed and facepalm, carrying it again and placing it on his shoulder while saying, "Fine! I'll keep you.. I'll even name you, your name shall be Archie!", as he finished the sentence- the Baby Bear shone bright blue and suddenly stopped, it looked normal but.. there was suddenly text above his head as it said, 'Archie'...
