Chapter- 4
Hey there people, here's your fourth chapter with a big dose of funny moments and great feral action. Hope y'all like it :-}
Once again a giant THANK YOU to angel897, Cutie Pie and Lorna Roxen for their awesome reviews, you guys are AWESOMEEE!
Victor ran his predatory gaze from left to right. His sharp ears trying to catch every small movement in the air. His claws itching to grab his prey. His prey's scent was coming closer, closer, closer...
She's right above his head.
Just as his kitten jumped down onto him like a real leopardess, Creed spun around with lightning speed and seized her small but strong body with his mighty arms and slammed her down to the ground with himself on the top.
"That not fair, Viktar." Kahli giggled softly, her head still spinning a little bit due to meeting the ground hard.
"Next time, don't play hide-and-seek with me, kitten." Creed smugly grinned down at her. His body perfectly and deliciously pinning her to the ground. It'd been three weeks since he met the great Goddess of the Jungle. He'd been coming here daily to meet his little kitten with some kindergarten books and other stuff like phone, tab, et cetera to teach her his language and everything else about 'his' world and gotta say, she was a damned fast learner and thanks to these small meetings, they'd become really good...friends, something Creed'd never called any other frail in his whole life.
"Now get of me." she playfully tried to push him off her.
"Nope, lemme punish ya first." Creed grinned again and pinched her nipple.
"OWWW! pleese let go, Viktar!" she laughed loudly, trying to make him leave the throbbing flesh. A group of monkeys suddenly started throwing mangoes down at Creed to make the scary feral let go of their Queen. That made Kahli laugh even harder.
Victor glared at the monkeys over his shoulder and gave them all his hardest stink-eye. "Who're they now? Your Z+ security?"
"No, they my public." Kahli gave another wide grin.
Victor shook his head laughingly and released the hardened nub before getting off her. He did a swift kick up and extended his hand. Kahli took it with a smirking roll of eyes.
"How you always catch me?" she asked with a grumpy pout.
"Just like you always 'catch' me." His clawed forefinger smugly tapped the side of his nose. "With this."
"Yeah right." Kahli gave a big eye roll this time.
"By the way, where are your two pea-brained bodyguards?"
"Ola sleep and Zehri busy in lunch." she replied in her broken English.
"And your oldass brother?"
"Hey!" Kahli gave a soft warning. No joking on her beloved brother. "He Rest. He not come out in daylight anymore." there was a little bit of sadness in Kahli's eyes. She hated to admit her brother'd become old and weak and wouldn't possibly be with her till next year.
"Okaayyy, so that means we're alone for a while." a mischievous glint in Victor's eyes. "Let's use it to have some real fun."
Kahli couldn't understand his double meaning jokes and took his idea of having 'fun' in some other direction. "You want fun, let's swim." she grinned and pulled the giant feral with her for their everyday swimming time.
V-V-V-V-V-V-V
"Aakhir hum abhi se current shuru kyu nahi kar dete, boss? Per rakhte hi marne do saalon ko!"- Why aren't we turning on the current right now, let the two die as they step into the water!; one of tne eyed-hunter's butt boys barked out his advice.
"Nahi! Aisa sochiyo bhi mat, wo ladki aur uska boyfriend tagde wale mutants lagte hain. Dono paani me per rakhne se pehle hi samajh jaayenge usme kuch gadbad hai. Thoda sabar rakh, aane de unko andar. Jaise hi unka dhyaan bata, hum apna kaam kar denge."- No! Don't even think about it, the girl and her boyfriend are damn class five mutants! They're gonna sense our trap before they step in. Let them get in. Once they're busy having fun, we'll finish the party forever.
"Aapko yakin hai, ki wo log aayenge, boss?"- Are you sure, that they would come, boss?; another goon asked.
"Haan bilkul, unn pe kai dino nazar aise hi nahi rakhi, beta."- Yes, I'm, boys. We've kept watch on their activities for past three weeks, it's their 'fun' time.; the one-eyed man smirked maliciously.
V-V-V-V-V-V-V
"So you ain't gonna take that off?" grumbling Victor pointed his index finger at the old rag wrapped around Kahli's private parts.
She narrowed her eyes at the smirking feral waiting for her in the water. "I not stupid, Viktar. I see the girl in that book. She was in the cloth in that square pond."
Victor laughed out loud. "That's called Bikini, baby, and that 'square pond' was swimming pool."
"What-ever." the female feral grumbled and jumped into the river with a loud splash.
"So you want to wander around dripping wet, huh? Well I certainly don't mind." he once again leered at his Mate's glistening body.
"I have more cloth." she replied nonchalantly, cutting through the water with her arms. Like always, all the fishes of the river swam to her and made a circle around her to talk to their Goddess. Victor found it mesmerizing every time.
"What are they sayin'?" he asked smirking.
"They say you big and scary."Aks grinned mischievously.
Creed's smirk instantly turned into a playful frown. "And what did you say?"
"I say I like big and scary." damn, she said it so innocently and without blushing. Victor had to smirk on that.
"By the way why do you always wrap those 'human' rags around your body? Why not some deer or tiger skin?" Creed needed to know it. That was something that separated her from all the 'jungle frails' he'd read about in the books or seen on the TV.
"Becoz I Vandevi, I not kill animals of my jungle. I hunt humans and wear their cloth as my..." she couldn't find the right word for her 'conquests'.
"Trophy?" Victor completed her sentence smirking.
"Yes. Trophy." she grinned.
"And what about that deer skin you wrap around yourself at night?"
"That my brother's kill. Deer skin more warm than human cloth."
An unconscious smile touched Victor's lips. "You're really an interesting kitten, you know that?"
Kahli gave a playfully shrug. "I know."
They laughed together this time but their laughter was soon interrupted by a bunch of 'outer' smells in the air. One of them smelled disgustingly familiar.
"Did ya smell that too?" Creed asked Kahli, a dangerous expression abruptly crossed his face.
"Yes." Kahli nodded with furrowed eyebrows. "Someone enter my jungle. Let's go out and catch them." as the feral couple decided to get out of the water, the pack of hunters growled in frustration and promptly threw a pair of live electric wires into the water. A sudden and very powerful wave of electricity ran through the water. Victor, kahli and all the animals living in the river felt the sudden and powerful shock of 440 volts and began squirming in bone numbing agony.
The evil men laughed out loud on their great success. "Chalo ab uss budhe tendue ko pakadte hain."- c'mon, let go catch that old leopard now."
V-V-V-V-V-V-V
"What?! You've seen that one eyed man enter the woods?" Vidal agitatedly asked Zehri.
"Yes, I have. There are Six of them and they have guns and a big, box-like thing."
"And where is Kahli?"
"I-I don't know, Ola's taking his nap, I'm here so she must be with Viktar."
"Oh Lord." Vidal shook his head. "Go find them both and inform them about the human attack." as Zehri nodded and turned to leave, they heard those damned humans, trying to climb up the hill to catch Vidal.
Vidal let out a furious growl. "Go, find them." he sternly commanded Zehri.
"But Vidal-"
"I said GO!"
V-V-V-V-V-V-V
Desperately moving through the water with his numbing legs and arms, Victor laboriously pulled himself and Kahli out of the river and laid her down on the bank. Their electric burns and bluing bodies began healing as their factors kicked in.
"H-Hey, open your eyes, kitten." Victor tapped her cheek frantically. Deep perturbation and something very close to fear crept into in his eyes. He'd already lost a lot, he couldn't lose his precious kitten this time...
Kahli opened her eyes as soon as her healing took care of the damage done by that fucking electric shock. The blurred vision before her slowly cleared. She blinked softly, trying to recognize the man before her eyes. "V-Viktar?"
"Yeah it's me, baby." he stroked her cheek with a relieved smile and helped her sit up.
"Kahli!" Zehri's hiss and the flutter of Ola's wings pulled the feral couple's attention. "Are you okay?!"
"Y-Yeah I'm fine, but I just-"
"Yeah I know!" Zehri hissed."Those humans, I saw them sneak into the wood and they-"
"And they what?" Zehri and Ola looked to each other hesitantly.
"T-They're after Vidal again." Ola said nervously.
"Vidal?!" Kahli ran a hand through her hair in pure anger and frustration.
"What happened, kitten?"
"T-They here for Vidal again, for his skin." her eyes turned predatorily pitch-dark with a loud snarl.
"Those assholes won't even be able ta touch him." Sabertooth also declared his presence with a rapid change of eyes. "Ya rest here and I'm goin' ta-"
"No I come with you!" Kahli protested, taking in the poignant view of water. All the fishes and other habitants of the river couldn't survive the deadly shock and now their corpses were floating on the surface. It filled Goddess of the Jungle with unimaginable rage.
"No! Ya stay here frail and I will go!" Sabertooth snarled.
"No! They kill MY animals and Vidal MY brother, so I come too!" she snarled back with a furious change of eyes of her own. Pitch black versus pitch black. This was the very first time her eyes'd taken their animalistic color before Sabertooth and he liked it.
"Fine!" Sabertooth growled and shot back up and yanked his Mate back to her feet. "C'mon, let's go!"
V-V-V-V-V-V-V
Vidal could hear them come closer, they were almost up there with their rifles. He needed to save himself from them but how?
"C'mon sathiyon, aaj ye sala tendua bach ke nahi jana chahiye!"- C'mon guys, let's get this fucking leopard!" they all finally reached up and pulled out their guns. The leader signaled one of his minions to throw the poisonous fume canister into the hole so they their prey could creep out this little hole like a writhing rat and they could kill it clean and easy.
Just as the small canister touched the ground of the dark cave, thick white smoke filled it completely. Vidal's battered lungs quickly gave away and the poor animal finally dragged himself out of his hideout coughing horrendously.
On the other hand, the hunter and his gang was ready with their guns, but as he pointed his gun at Vidal, Ola came flying like an arrow and clawed at his hand holding the trigger, he dropped it down with a squeal.
"Urghhh, fir se nahi!"- Urghhh, not again!" the leader barked in pure anger and signaled his men to point their guns at the bird but before they could do so, Kahli and Victor reached up to rescue the old leopard at the right time and started clearing the ground with the help of their little army of monkeys.
The boss of hunters couldn't see his bunch get slaughtered like damned cattle again. He pulled the monkey trying to claw his other eye off his face before picking up his gun from the ground and shot it down. Sabertooth and Kahli, both spun their murderous glares to the hunter. The death of that innocent animal infuriated both ferals. Kahli signaled Sabertooth to finish that monster but as he lunged at him on all fours, the evil man lifted his gun through the air and fired at him.
"VIKTAR!" Kahli screamed and rushed to Victor.
The bullet went through Victor's right shoulder but unlike other times, Victor hit the ground in pain this time and to his biggest surprise, his wound wasn't healing.
"What did ya think, feral? I've come here without any preparation?" the hunter smirked down at the bleeding man on the ground. "The bullet that just made a hole in your fucking skin is a 'healing factor killing' bullet ordered from USA. First test goes on you and now it's your fucking girlfriend's turn."
Shit, as he pointed his gun at Kahli and fired to finish the biggest obstacle in his mission, Vidal jumped out of nowhere and took the bullet on him. The old cat hit the ground with a loud roar.
"VIDAL!" Kahli screamed again as her brother's whimpering body staggered down to the ground.
"Urghh!" the huntsman roared at another failure and tried to shoot at Kahli again but Creed quickly dragged himself back to his feet before pouncing at him on all his fours and drove his taloned hand through his stomach.
"Vidal..." Kahli surged over to his brother and grabbed him in her arms while all her friends encircled the siblings.
He slowly opened his eyes and nuzzled against his sister's crying face. "D-Don't cry dear, i-it had to happen one day..."
"No! I'm not gonna let anything happen to you!" she snarled and looked up to Creed with a silent plea in her teary eyes. He nodded and pulled out his phone of his back pocket before walking away to find network.
"H-He's a nice human." Vidal gave a pained smile.
"Yes, he is." Kahli smiled back. "He's been a great help today."
"A-And I'm sure he will be a great Mate in the future." his left trembling paw reached up and wiped his sister's tears away.
"After mother's death, I've always seen you as my own Cub and I cannot imagine a future filled with endless loneliness for you after my death. Therefore," he took her hand in his paw. "I want you to...leave this jungle and go with Victor to your own world."
"WHAT?!" Ola and Zehri shouted in unison.
His words shattered her heart into million pieces. "But brother-"
"Please kahli, try to understand, child. I cannot let those humans take you as a threat in their eyes anymore. You should be among them, not against them. And as far as it's about me and all your friends, we know how to take care of ourselves."
She shook her head, streams of salted water running down her cheeks. "I-I don't want to go, brother."
Vidal let out a shuddering sigh, tears of sadness forming in his eyes too. "I don't want you to either, my child but that is necessary."
"I've called for medical help. They'll be here any minute." Victor informed the siblings. Kahli nodded and wrapped her slender arms around her brother. Vidal closed his eyes with a slight whine.
Kahli pushed against her brother's forehead with her own as feline affection and whispered softly. "I promise brother, I promise I will do as you say."
