Sojiro had been slowly driving himself insane lately, having decided to travel with three Moon Shinobo towards the Keller Mountain Plains instead of just taking his ass back home. As the group decided to push further and further into the mountains, Sojiro had regretted not stopping somewhere to buy warmer clothes for himself. He was used to having to stay in harsh environments, especially seeing that the desert was exceptionally freezing once the sun went done! But as they pushed further and further into the northern parts of the mountain range, the light snowfall turned into a heavy pour. It caused him to want to scream a bit, as he was once again put on patrol and the wind had decided to pick up. Snow swirled around him as he would look around, his nose slowly growing a deep shade of red as he walked. For once, the black Flak Jacket that he had on his body was zipped up in the front, though it wasn't exactly doing a whole lot to keep him warm in this weather. Suddenly, there was a small weight on his shoulder, "You wouldn't get it, Auggie. It's goddamn freezing out here..."
He spoke to the animal that had landed on his shoulder, an almost pure white bunny that had a pair of elegant wings along its back. Instead of a small tail, like most rabbit's had, Auggie's tail stretched down a bit and then ended in the floof of a white ball. Along the edges of his ears, tail, and wings were black linings that added a more regal look to the creature. Auggie made a few noises at Sojiro before taking off again, flying around the area and enjoying the freedom while they were on patrol. Sojiro had to do something, for the love of god, to warm himself up... Maybe if he could find some type of large animal or even a couple of wolves! Anything, that way he could bring back food for the group while also getting some furs for himself.
It took about ten minutes for Sojiro's nose to pick up on a scent in the distance, something that smelt like an old, moldy carpet. It could be a type of bear, he thought to himself, moving down onto all fours as he dashed through the wilderness swiftly. Following the scent, Sojiro moved into a tree and took a crouched position, letting his ruby-colored eyes settle on the shape of a large bear. A grin was on his lips as he watched the creature, slowly moving himself down into a pounce like giant cat before he moved! The bestial youth would launch himself out of the trees and land on the back of the bear, where it let out a loud scream. Sojiro would move quickly and use his incredible strength to stay on the back of the bear, trying to get his arms around its neck while it roared. The roar that was released by the bear caused the ground underneath the creature to shake and Sojiro's whole body to vibrate.
The bear stood up on its hind legs and reared backward, throwing itself into a tree and crushing Sojiro in between the two objects. He let out a cough but didn't let go of the bear, grabbing onto the tufts of fur as roughly as he could, "Come... Here you big... Asshole..." He sputtered to the thing while trying to wrestle with it, trying to get the right hold on it before he finally managed to feel his right arm with his left. What happened next was a quick motion, Sojiro jerking both of his arms with monstrous strength and the bear's head cracking, then twisting at an awkward angle. The bear's body would fall to the ground with a thud and Sojiro would stand next to it, a large grin on his face. With ease he'd haul the large bear onto his shoulders and head back to base. Sojiro would be cold no longer!
