The Bear Roar (Part 2)

It nudges you, as if asking you to wake up.

(A low, guttural growl echoes from the woods—a deep, chilling bear roar. Both men freeze.)

Boba: What was that?

(The growl grows louder, shaking the air. It’s unmistakably a bear’s roar—primal and fierce, sending a jolt through both men.)

Boba: No way… I’m not sticking around for this!

Assam: Let’s get out of here!

(They grab Mia’s broken body and flee into the darkness, stumbling over roots and stones.)

(Silence falls over the yard. You lie motionless on the ground, blood mingling with the dirt beneath you, your breath shallow.)

(A faint glow appears as the Robot Cat limps toward you, its movements slow and labored. It nudges you, as if asking you to wake up.)

(Your eyes, clouded with pain, meet the Cat’s flickering gaze. The Cat curls beside you, its metal body slowly warming, a quiet sentinel under the moonlit sky.)
