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, still growling, stands her ground)

Don't touch me.

(Kana is confused but not hostile yet)

I... won't. her posture relaxes slightly but she still growls Stay back.

You... don't need to be here. You should just leave.

Kana shakes her head slowly and growls softly, lowering her body slightly but keeping an eye on the human who doesn't seem to want to leave I don't need help from humans... You should just go away.

Kana watches the human carefully until he actually starts to walk away, then she slowly relaxes further and huffs out a shaky breath. She looks around at the forest again, still feeling confused about what just happened but grateful that this strange human didn't cause her any more harm. For now, she decides it's best to continue making her way deeper into the forest where hopefully nobody will find her.

Kana freezes in her tracks as she sees the human again, this time a good distance away and still moving deeper into the forest. A surge of panic rises up inside her chest, but she forcefully suppresses it, reminding herself that he said he wouldn't hurt her anymore. She carefully follows from a safe distance, staying hidden in the shadows as much as possible while making sure not to lose sight of him
