Hello, it's me. I've got 2 new characters it my fic, Jade the Jaguar and Shindou the husky puppy. Thank you Jokergirl and blackicewolfie for picking such great characters for yourselves. Thanks once again
Raven stalked off into the jungle. It wasn't too late, about sunset, but she felt exausted, however her instincts told her to hunt for food, but she didn't know how.
The only words of advice Beast Boy had given was to let the animal take over.
Raven decided to give it a try and used her keen senses to find prey. There it was, barely 20 metres away, a capybara, the world's largest rodent washing itself by the river, blissfully unaware of the danger.
Raven crept forward, belly low to the ground. For a moment she hesitated, then she leapt. The capybara leapt for cover just in time. She missed and fell into the river, just then noticing the 7 meter long caiman lying there...
Starfire was scared. First they were turned into big cats, then they were stuck on a plane and split up, and now she was being poked by the collector. She hated the name collector, it made it sound as if the animals were unessisary objects, not living, breathing creatures.
"Hey, you're new." A voice next to her said. "What's your name?"
"Starfire" She nearly answered, but corrected herself just in time "It's Skyflyer."
"That's a nice name, I'm Jade."
"Pleased to make your aquaintence, Jade" Starfire said.
"Oh, the pleasure's all mine." Jade answered.
Just then, their cages were pushed together by a hand (means a helper)
Jade moved with the ease of long practice, stopping herself from falling over by simply placing a paw in front of her. Starfire however was not so lucky, and fell flat on her face.
"I am sorry, I am not used to being shoved so suddenly and keeping my balance." Starfire apoligised.
"Why're you apoligising? You'll get the hang of it in the end. No problemo, but your name is a little long, can I just call you Sky?"Jade asked.
"Of course!" Starfire (I'm gonna call them by their cat names from now) shouted.
Now she was closer, Skyflyer (that's Star) could see Jade properly. She was another jaguar, slightly smaller than Sky but looked about 2 years older. She had 2 scars, one on her abdomen and another above her right eye. Her base colour was rusty reddish-orange hue with deep black rosettes (markings) over the top and, to top it all off she had jade green eyes, presumably the origin of her name...
Quicksilver (Cyborg) was feeling strange. He felt like he was being watched by unseen eyes.
A few hours before dawn's first light, this place would make even Raven feel scared! Tangles of pine needles dripping resin like so many drops of blood.
He decided he needed some food. He (like Raven) used his senses and located a young fawn.
He crept forward and leapt at the deer, just as the forest exploded around him...
In the wee small hours before dawn, Vello (Beast Boy) was thinking about how bad his life had turned out. He couldn't even help his friends anymore. He felt useless.
His thoughts were interrupted by a rustling sound behind him...
The place was 2 miles offshore. They were in a storm that would make a hurricane look like a newborn kitten. Boarded a ship headed for Alaska.
The captain's voice rang out over the tumult of the waves and passengers.
"Ladies and gentlemen, our ship is headed for an inevitable collision course with an iceberg. Please remain calm and proceed to the lifeboats on the left and right of the ship. Once again remain calm."
There was silence for a few moments, then someone shouted "we're headed for an iceberg, Don't PANIC, Don't PANIC!" He was obviously not panicking. Not!
Then everyone ran off to a lifeboat. A female husky dog rushed back to her 2 pups and, wrongly assuming their father was still on board, grabbed the smaller pup and rushed to a lifeboat that was just leaving.
The other pup tried to follow, but her mother was lost among the legs of all the humans. "MUMMY, MUMMY!" She yelled over and over, but to no avail. Her mother was gone.
She had just struggled onto the upper deck, when the boat hit the iceberg.
Quick thinking, luckily, ran in the pup's family and she leapt off the ship into the ice cold water, just before the ship exploded in a burst of fire and smoke.
The pup swam. Anywhere was better than here. She swam for what seemed like an eternity, but really it was only about 20 minutes. When she reached land she continued. Not knowing, or caring where she went. All she knew was that Shindou was one husky that would choose a wild life...
Falcon (Robin) ran. He followed a young gazelle and, finally wore it down. He was probably going to be the only one, barring Vello, who would let the cat take over. Why? Well, he thought to himself, Raven's used to shoving down her emotions, and instincs are basically emotions, Cy would just jump and hope to luck and Star, well she won't have to hunt unless she escapes.
He'd caught up to the gazelle and tripped it up. He quickly leapt onto it and, keeping it on the ground with his weight, delivered the killing bite which would crush the windpipe and suffocate the prey.
He gave thanks to the great cat spirit, as all true cats should do and, carrying the prey, leapt up the nearest tree to keep safe his prize.
He didn't notice the pair of malevolent eyes watching him barely 4 feet away.
