Thank you to everyone who reviewed and/or PM-ed me ideas for our new companion! You won't see which powers I decided to go with, but I hope you will fall in love with our adorable feline!
Really short chapter, but I hope you enjoy!

Naruto carefully stalked through the forest as she padded towards the sound she had just heard. After a few minutes of walking, she froze as a low, gigantic roar rang through the air, followed by a smaller, more high pitched roar. Naruto shook her head as she cautiously approached the sounds that seemed to come from the clearing right ahead of her. She leaped up to a branch in a tree nearby as she peered curiously at the scene.
Down on the grassless ground, stood two felines glaring at each other. To the left was a humongous orange tiger, its dark slitted amber eyes were narrowed in anger, its large claws dug into the earth with ease, its long striped tail whipped from side to side and it bared its sharp yellow fangs with a growl.
To the right was a small white kitten, black stripes barely visible. Its milky blue eyes were unfocused as its small pearly fangs gleamed, trying to intimidate the creature in its presence. It let out a mock roar, the only sound coming out being a cute high pitched squeak. Naruto's heart melted upon the cute sight only to realize that the monstrous tiger to the left was going to attack the adorable kitten on the right. Naruto gulped, not knowing what to do. Her heart was telling her to save the smaller feline while her brain was screaming at her to leave the cat and get away from clearing as soon as possible. Naruto shook in fear, anxiety racking her very soul. What am I going to do?! What am I going to do?! WHAT AM I GOING TO DO?! Naruto let out a shaky breath as she coiled her muscles, and suddenly the world went black, the last thing she remembered being the sound of squirting blood, a roar of pain, and a squeak of surprise.
For those who don't know Japanese, I'll put out the definition down here but please know that it may not be 100% accurate so if you spot any mistakes, down here or in the story, please comment to my story. Also some additional information for those that are curious.
I know it's a really short chapter AND a cliffhanger, but I thought you might like the introducing of our future companion. I hope you can try and put yourself in her shoes, or rather the lack thereof, and understand the emotions that went through her brain. (Please note that she IS six years old)
