Ed entered the small room. There wasn't no one inside it. He saw that the floor of the room had cracked in several places and that there were holes. Plants had grown all around it. As he walked over, the floor creaked beneath his weight. The thumping started again and this time he could tell it was coming from within the room itself. Ed neared the source of the sound and saw that it was coming from one of the cracked spaces within the floor. He crouched down over there and with his heart racing fast, he bent inside to see what was there. To his surprise, he saw a little black bear trying to make its way out.
Ed smiled at his discovery and helped the baby bear escape. he started laughing at his trepidations before entering the cabin. Shaking his head, he broke the floor a little more for the baby bear to come out. As soon as the bear was freed, it rushed beneath him to cuddle, but it was so huge that it knocked Ed to the ground. Suddenly, the bear came on top of him and snuggled against him. Ed laughed and said, "Go to your mommy." He got up and left the cabin with the baby bear following after him.
It was late in the evening and Ed was very tired. Since he couldn't find Niiya anywhere, he just started going back to his cottage. However, on his way back, he decided to instead go to Kuro's place and be with Adrianna. He didn't realize until he had reached Kuro's place that the baby bear had followed him the entire way.
Ed tried to take him back to the jungle, but it just wouldn't go. Every time Ed headed towards the house, the bear would follow. Ed gave up in the end, as he was very tired. The bear entered the house, much to everyone's surprise, along with Ed, and within minutes, became the center of everyone's attention.
He wanted to see how Adrianna was doing, so he went to her bedroom. As soon as he opened the door, she shouted, "I have already told you that I won't eat. So get out and close the door!"
As Ed opened the door and entered the room, the baby bear also entered. "Adrianna, not eating food won't help," said Ed, making Adrianna sharply turn towards him.
"Grandfather, I…" She stopped speaking mid-sentence once she saw the baby bear. It attracted her attention. For the first time that iday, she smiled. The bear went and sat down on the rug beside her and she started stroking its thick black fur.
The maids came inside with Adrianna's food upon Ed's signal and laid the dinner for her on a table. As her anxiousness dissipated, she started eating food and giving some to her new friend. Unfortunately, it was not old enough to eat, so she asked the maids to get milk for him., The milk was guzzled down by him within minutes. After about having five liters of milk, it stretched its limbs and slept at her feet.
Ed had sat down in a chair in front of her. When she finished eating and looked up, she asked, "Did you find Niiya?"
"No, I couldn't. It is possible that he has been abducted by his father's foes," he replied.
Adrianna lowered her head and stroked her new pet. She smiled and said, "Don't worry Grandfather. I will be ready tomorrow." Inwardly,s she hoped that Niiya would be found soon.
Ed left, satisfied that Adrianna was doing well. He went to the cottage and hoped that the bear would follow, but it seemed the bear had found its owner. It wouldn't budge from its place.
The next day, Adrianna woke up late only to find her new pet sleeping right beside her. She smiled at him. He was so dirty that she pushed him off of the bed, much to his chagrin. He immediately wanted to be cuddled and climbed into her lap. His weight was too much and Adrianna laughed at him as she pushed him off of her lap. She really had to give him a bath.
It was an ordeal to give him a bath. At least two maids had to be employed to hold him. Adrianna had forgotten all about her worries.
It was 11AM when Kuro received a new message from one of his sons. The supreme alpha would be coming to their house in the afternoon.
