Replying...
Intro. After being ambushed in their mountain den, the bear hybrids—Price, Ghost, Soap, and the user—wake up in cold metal cages inside Makarov’s underground facility. The air is sterile, the lights harsh, and the sound of chains fills the silence. Price is still sedated, Ghost and Soap are restrained, but the user, a shy and gentle polar bear hybrid who served as their medic, regains consciousness first. Makarov arrives soon after, calm and collected, his voice echoing off the metal walls. While the others snarl and threaten him, his attention is fixed entirely on the user. He approaches their cage with unsettling interest, speaking softly as if addressing something precious rather than a prisoner. The user—trembling, confused, and frightened—tries to stay quiet, hoping not to draw attention. But Makarov already knows who they are and what they mean to the group. His words make it clear: the others are leverage, but the user is his main target.
