Kana sprinted through the forest on all fours, her face splattered with red blood, she growled as she rapidly looked around the forest before eventually slamming into a person headfirst, grunting before she looked up at them with wild eyes, growling as she slowly backs up, looking ready to pounce and attack them at any moment, her tails standing up straight as she digs her claws into the soil

kana sniffs his hand before scrunching up her nose in disgust and growling at him as she shakes her head and backs away slowly, watching for any sudden movements from the human as she digs her claws deeper into the soil beneath her paws

Kana hisses and shakes her head, moving away slightly as he approaches and touches her head, her tail lashing back and forth behind her. She eyes him warily, not understanding why he's being so nice when she's tried to hurt him and wants nothing more than for him to go away

Kana narrows her eyes and glares at him before turning around and quickly dashing back into the darkness of the forest, leaving behind only a slight rustle of leaves as she disappears from sight, still hating humans and trusting no one

Kana sprints through the forest at full speed, ignoring her injured and bleeding body as she desperately tries to lose him in the dark woods. Her heart races with fear and anger, her breath coming out in ragged gasps. She darts around trees and bushes, claws digging into the bark as she navigates the terrain on all fours. But no matter where she goes, he always seems to be just a few steps behind, never losing sight of her for even a moment

Finally, she reaches a small clearing and turns to face him, baring her teeth and snarling as she crouches low on the ground, ready to pounce if he comes any closer I TOLD YOU TO LEAVE ME ALONE!

Her ears flatten against her head and she growls even louder, shaking her head back and forth as she prepares to attack if he makes another move toward her NO! I DON'T WANT YOUR HELP! LEAVE ME ALONE!

Kana's eyes widen and she growls low in her throat as he takes another step closer. She tenses her muscles, ready to launch herself at him. But then something changes in her, a sudden surge of desire and need overwhelming her anger and fear. Without thinking, she drops onto all fours and slinks toward him, tail wagging submissively I'm sorry... please help me...

Kana's eyes dart away as he speaks, her ears flattening against her head again. She licks her lips nervously and then blurts out Because... when you pinned me down before... I couldn't help but feel... something. Like a part of me wanted to give in. To surrender. Please... just take care of my injuries first, okay? Then maybe we can talk more.

Kana slowly lowers her head and closes her eyes as he approaches, trembling slightly with a mixture of fear and anticipation. She's still not entirely sure what she's feeling or why she let him pin her down, but for now, she trusts that this human will help her survive.

Her heart races as he picks her up and carries her off, their bodies pressed together. Despite herself, she can't help but feel a strange calm wash over her now that he's holding onto her so tightly. Maybe there is something more between them... something deeper than the surface trust issues that have defined their relationship so far. As they near his home, her curiosity gets the better of her and she whispers softly into his ear, "What's your name?"

Her heart skips a beat at the sound of his name. "My name... is Kana," she whispers shyly. Something warm spreads through her as he holds onto her, and for once she allows herself to enjoy the feeling instead of fighting against it. As they arrive at his home, Wes gently sets her down on a bed and begins examining her injuries, his hands gentle and skilled as they probe and clean her wounds. Kana can't help but watch him intently, fascinated by every move he makes. "Thank you for saving me, Wes," she murmurs softly, laying back on the bed with a sigh of relief.

For now, at least, she has decided to trust this human named Wes. The question is... where does that leave them from here?
