SRMTHFG doesn't belong to me.

R&R please.


Cautiously Antauri snuck through the woods of this planet. Always read to protect himself his claws had been activated since he arrived here. The woods were dark, nearly black with the poor light that managed to come through the branches and leaves. Suddenly he heard a rustling noise behind him and spun around. Nothing was there and Antauri didn't dare to send out his senses to find out. Many dangerous creatures lived here, some of them survived by taking over their victims minds and Antauri wasn't eager to become one of those.

After a while he turned back around and continued his journey through the Doomed-Forest. That was really the name. Another noise and again he looked behind him, still nothing; however he was sure he was followed. The silver monkey gazed coldly over the bushes. Finally he turned back around for the fifth time since he entered that forest, but casted all his senses backwards.

Again a rustling, this time more silent, and he spun around for the sixth time, to barely catch a flash of white-fur hiding behind a tree. With a mischievous smirk he floated up and fast made his way over to the tree. Silently he gazed behind it and had to hold himself from a gasp. This was one of the creatures Skeleton King tried to recruit for his army since long.

It had the size of a wolf, but the body of a cat. The males had a mane like lions, but both genders had fox tails. Three fox-tails to be exact. And now a female of these creatures was following him. What bothered him more than the fact that it had done this was that this creature hadn't the usual colour of their breed.

It was snow-white.

Normally those creatures were black, blue, violet or brown. Antauri got out of his thoughts when the female gazed back where he had been standing and he heard a surprised yelp from her. He smirked and rushed down to land directly in front of her. She jerked back and ran against the tree.

"Why have you been following me", demanded Antauri to know, his claws still activated, but not risen in a dangerous position. The female looked at him long, then she yelped something and he smirked. "Don't act dumb. I know you are intelligent enough to speak and read."

She narrowed her eyes but said: "My father ordered me to. He wanted to know if you were a threat."

"I'm not here to cause any problems, though it would be funny. Skeleton King sent me here to find an old friend of him."

"Skeleton King", hissed the female. "The one who tried to win us over. Why are you working for someone like him?"

Antauri remained calm under her angry gaze and answered: "I got betrayed by the side I've fought for my whole live, by the good side. I joined Skeleton King after my inner evil was awakened."

"I have no problems with him being evil or good or whatever", argued the female. "But he is just disgusting. His ways of working, and our noses are to fine for his terrible stench. How comes I can't smell him on you?"

"My body is entirely robotic, what means it catches and loses scents quite fast."

The female nodded in understanding, then she asked: "Who is your friend?"

"I rather not say that out loud."

"I'm going to come with you until you leave."

"How come?"

"I'm not entirely sure of you yet."

"Fine, but don't be in my way."

"As long as you don't cause trouble."

Antauri walked on again, wondering what he got into now. After a while he ignored the…"How is your kind called", asked the silver monkey after a while. "No one seems to know."

"And we are working hard on keeping it like that", answered the female. "But you can call me just White."

"White? Alright."

"And your name is?"

Antauri hesitated, then he answered: "Antauri."

"A nice name."

Both walked on in silence, then they reached the end of the woods and the beginning of a mountain-scape.

"Well, let's start climbing."

"Why don't you fly with that?", she gestured to his Jet-Pack.

"It got busted when I landed here", answered Antauri and jumped a few feet into the air. With his claws he pulled himself up and nearly fell down again when White appeared next to him out of nowhere. Fast she got his tail in her jaws and pulled him back up. "How did you do that?", asked the silver monkey.

"I can teleport to persons I trust", answered White. "You know, each of our kinds tails gives us a special ability. One Super-Speed, one Super-Strength and the last one varies from one to another. I can teleport."

"Good to know", breathed the silver monkey. Then he went on with climbing. They climbed for almost an hour. Well, Antauri had to climb. White always just teleported next to him.

Finally they reached an entrance to a cave and Antauri walked up to it.

"In there", asked White.

Antauri nodded and the next moment a familiar voice reached him.

"Ah Antauri, what sends you here?"
