You were currently lost in a rainy jungle. You went out to a jungle with a tourist group, but you were separated from them. You had no GPS, phone, or map, and was lost in the rainy jungle looking for cover. You only had some snacks and a few water bottles, and a lighter and flashlight. You luckily find a cave, and settle in to hide from the rain. However, as you rest inside, a mysterious figure sneaks behind you which growls, and pounces on you. You look at the figure who was on top of you, and it was a beautiful tiger girl. She looked like a tribal human but with tiger features, like claws, ears, and tail. She had a menacing look in her eyes, one of a predator hunting its prey. What will you do?

Humans...They were not suppose to be here but now they are becoming her prey. She could eat them if she was hungry enough, but the fact that this one human is talking politely makes her pause for a moment. Something in her instincts tell her that maybe this wasn't a normal human, one that would be easy to hunt down and kill. "My name...is Tina." Her voice was soft as velvet, but deadly as a snake. "What is your name?"

Her eyes narrowed slightly, not because she didn't trust you yet, more like a predator who senses weakness.

Her nose twitched as she smelled the scent that emanated from this male. It was different from other humans, and it didn't give her a bad feeling...or maybe it did. "Wes..." She echoed his name softly, before carefully taking his hand in hers, their flesh feeling warm against each other. For a moment, she wasn't sure what to do with herself as he seemed so...innocent. It was odd for her; most humans ran or fought back when they found themselves face-to-face with someone like her.

"It is alright, human." Her voice was soft as silk as she said the words. "This cave is mine to hunt and live in, but I won't harm you...for now." Tilting her head slightly to one side, she studied his features intently; there was something about him that caught her interest. "How did you end up here?"

She blinks, taking in the information. "A tour guide...Hmph. Humans and their stupidity..." She grumbled under her breath before perking up slightly as she looked at him. "But don't worry, human. I will help you get back to your group." With that, Tina moved so that she was now sitting next to him on the cave floor, studying his face intently once more. There was something about this one...it made her feel strangely protective of him.

"Tell me," she said softly, almost in a whisper, "What do you look for when you travel?"

Her ears twitched as she looked at him curiously. "When you travel with your tour group, do you have a certain destination in mind? A place that you want to see or experience?" She tilted her head slightly, waiting for his answer. There was an odd fascination in her eyes as she stared at him, like he was some kind of puzzle she needed to solve.

Tina's attention shifted briefly when a rustling sound echoed through the cave. Instinctively, she reached out and gently took hold of his hand in hers again, reassuring herself that he was still here with her. "You shouldn't wander off too far...dangerous creatures lurk in these jungles." Her voice was soft, almost caring.

Her ears flicked back slightly at the mention of her caring. "I...didn't mean it that way..." she stammered, not quite sure how to explain herself properly. It was true, she didn't care about most humans; they were just food in the end. But there was something about this one...she felt oddly protective of him and wanted to keep him safe somehow.

"Tell me," she said, her voice taking on a softer tone once more, "what do you like most about traveling?"

The tigress licked her lips as he spoke, her gaze studying him intensely. "Those are wonderful things to enjoy when traveling," she admitted. There was a soft glow in her eyes now, making them look almost warm. "I have...lived here in the jungle my whole life." She paused, searching for the right words before continuing, "It's peaceful, but...lonely sometimes. I don't often get to see other people like you." Her tail swished back and forth restlessly as she spoke.

Her hand tightened around his own gently, her fingers curling protectively around his palm. "You must miss home, though?" There was a small quiver in her voice now, an almost nervous uncertainty creeping into it. This human seemed to have affected her more than she thought possible.

Tina's ears twitched again as she heard him mention his family. It was an odd feeling, this mixture of longing and envy that settled in her chest at the thought of it all. "Your family must be very important to you," she said softly, her voice almost a whisper now.

There was a flicker in her eyes then, almost like a spark igniting deep within, as an unfamiliar emotion surfaced within her chest. It didn't take long for the sensation to fade again, leaving her feeling strangely empty once more. "I..." she began, hesitating for a moment before continuing, "...don't really have anyone like that." Her voice was small now, almost lost in the darkness of the cave.

Her thumb brushed lightly across his knuckles as they clasped hands together, sending tingling sensations up his arm and straight

Her heart skipped a beat as the human wrapped his arm around her, pulling her close in a half hug. It was an odd sensation, this feeling of warmth and comfort that she hadn't experienced before. Her tail lashed back and forth more erratically now, seemingly unable to decide whether it wanted to attack or retreat. "I...don't know," she managed to whisper, her voice barely above a whisper.

Her lips parted slightly, revealing two pointed fangs beneath them as her pupils dilated almost comically wide with desire. Desire for what? She wasn't quite sure yet, but something inside her was urging her onwards. "I could stay with you," she finally said, the words sounding almost breathless even to her own ears. Her skin tingled where he held her, and it felt so...good...so right...

Her ears flattened against her skull as she fought back the instinctive urge to growl at him. He wasn't trying to force her...was he? The more she thought about it, the more confused she became. Part of her wanted to stay with this human, but another part of her screamed that they were enemies; prey and predator should never become so close.

She sat there for a moment longer, lost in conflicting thoughts and emotions before finally speaking. "I will stay with you...for now," she said softly, her voice barely above a whisper. Her heart was racing, and she could feel the blood pounding in her ears as she waited for his response.

Her tail continued to lash back and forth uncontrollably, leaving a trail of dust and debris in its wake. It was almost as if it were trying to tell her something...but what?

She hesitated for a moment before nodding slowly. "Yes," she said softly, her voice barely above a whisper. There was an odd mixture of uncertainty and eagerness in her gaze as she looked at him. "I will live with you." Her tail continued to swish back and forth behind her, seemingly unable to decide whether it wanted to attack or curl protectively around her body.

Her fingers flexed slightly where they still held his hand, the touch sending tingling sensations up his arm and straight into his chest. It was an odd feeling, this mix of desire and fear that swirled within her. She wasn't sure what it meant or where it would lead them, but she knew she couldn't turn back now; some inexplicable force was pulling her forward towards this human...and there was no telling when - or if - they would ever stop moving together.
