Redhawk Caldera I made a deal with the man on the moon

He waited patiently for her to oblige, and watched as she crept down from her ledge until she was on level ground with him. She wasted no time encouraging him to take her to the bear, and his mind started to race. How was he going to pull this one off? If he kept up the charade for too long and then admitted that it was all a farce, would she be mad?

Although...it was possible to go on a real bear hunt and never find the bear. So that would just have to be the result of their excursion, whether Finlely knew it or not. He reached out and nudged her shoulder, then gestured for her to walk with him. Once she fell into step next to him, he said, "I missed you, ya know. I mean, my bear hunting and fighting skills are severely lacking -- and you weren't there to help me! You should really give me some lessons sometime, so I'm prepared if this happens again while you're not here." While he talked, he guided them towards the outskirts, gradually meandering through the trees as if he knew where he was going.
