"Run Tom, run!"
Lieutenant Thomas Murdoch, formerly of the 3rd Royal Australian Regiment Commandos, plunged head first into the wilderness, running for his life. Branches smacked against his rifle, tore at his armour, scraping the sides of his helmet. He ignored these things as the unimportant irritations they were and focused on the bigger problems: Get Away!
He crashed through a clearing and spun around, dropping to one knee and raising his Austeyr F88 rifle into position as two soldiers rushed onwards, firing 3 shots into their pursuers before following them. He heard com chatter in his helmet's headset.
"They're everywhere!" "11 o'clock, fire fire!" Bursts from more F88s. "More ahead, keep moving!" "Where the hell's Jackson?" "He's down, Jackson's down!"
Tom kept moving, reaching a clearing where Sergeant Liam Oxley and private Robert "Niner" Hinds were poised, their rifles raised in his direction. He sat down on a log, exhausted, removing his helmet for a brief respite, the hot jungle air washing over his face.
"That was a trap...we've been double crossed." said Hinds, easing off his own helmet, dropping down to sit on a rock near Oxley, who nudged him with his foot.
"They were in the fucking trees Niner...of COURSE it was a trap." Niner took a large gulp from his water bottle and gave him a withering look -- an effect that was lost on Oxley, who still had his expressionless helmet on and just stared right back.
"Ox, Niner, cut it out, we have bigger problems, we have to get moving, this jungle's crawling with soldiers and God knows what else. Let's call it in." He lifted his helmet up to place it back on his head when he heard a twig snap. Instantly all 3 commandos had their guns trained on a spot in the jungle, 4 metres from the edge of the clearing.
Niner looked at Tom. "What is it?" he mouthed, when another noise was heard from the left, then behind them. They spun around, trying to get a bead on it, when suddenly...
"AAAAHHHHHH!" A flash of black, brown and orange and Niner was gone.
Tom and Ox spun around again, back to back, hearing strange growls and dragging sounds all around them. Ox raised his rifle to his left but he was too slow and they were both bowled over. Tom rolled to his right and raised himself up, aiming his rifle at Ox, to find him wrestling with the strangest sight he had ever seen.
Ox was being pinned and dragged out towards the edge of the clearing by what appeared to be a panther, but it wasn't a panther. It had a black tail and legs, but the colour stopped around the animal's bottom, which was rosy pink. The colour continued down the creatures sides and arms, but the back of the neck, face and belly were all flesh pink. It was a girl, and she was naked to boot. As he ran forwards, another one appeared, brown with white stripes down her back, grabbing his arm and biting it hard, drawing blood through the uniform as the first one tugged at his legs, or so Tom thought. Are they pulling off his pants???
As Tom reached Ox, a third girl leapt out at him, pushing him onto his back, his rifle firing several shots as he went down and it flew out of his hand. He rolled over and pushed the thing off of him, which got up and with a snarl launched itself into the jungle. Tom turned around to grab his weapon and saw it had completely disappeared. So had Ox, and the girls dragging him and, he could only guess, Niner as well. He reached for his helmet where he had dropped it...it was gone too.
He was alone.
He drew his M9 and held it up, two handed, as he scanned the jungle. It had all gone quiet, not a sound to be heard. It was eerie. Tom raised the pistol as he heard a branch move behind him, and turned to see a girl on all fours, looking hungrily at him. It was the one who had leapt at him earlier. She was blond haired, with orange cat ears poking out of her hair, light and dark orange stripes down her sides, a little orange over her back and her bum, her legs and arms both striped as well. Her tail was fluffy, orange mostly, but her belly was the pinky white colour of skin, stretching from her neck down around the outside rim of her boobs and down her belly, between her legs and ending in a rounded point around her asshole, underneath her tail. She had sharp claws and teeth that pointed out a lot, especially when she growled, which she was doing now.
"Easy, er, girl," he said, backing up, one hand out in the stop position. He didn't want to shoot this animal. She was just a young woman - sort of - and if he could avoid killing her he would. "I don't want to hurt you, ok?" He backed up more, reaching the log and stepping over it. But this was his mistake, for as he took his step, one leg on either side of the log, the tigress leapt at him, snarling again and grabbing his shoulders in each hand, her weight tripping him over, legs pushing on his belly and forcing him to the ground.
His head spun and his vision blurred, unable to figure out which way was up, until he felt her move. He yelled as she dug her claws into his hips sharply, ripping his pants down the legs and tearing his belt off violently. He looked incredulously as she used her teeth to bite through his pants and tearing a hole in the crotch, revealing his underwear to her. She uncharacteristically removed them gently as possible, exposing his penis to the warm air, staring down at it hungrily.
Tom panicked. Oh God, what is she going to do to me? He tried to sit up but she growled fiercely at him, making him lie back again, scared to anger her. He still had his knife, but it wasn't going to be fast enough to stop lightning reflexes, teeth like knives and claws that looked like razors. She moved her tiger-like body up on either side of him, her legs poised with her exposed pussy over his groin, and slapped her claws down onto his chest, gripping him as she sat on the balls of her feet, her bum and pussy out like she was sitting, and lowered herself down onto his cock, going deep on him.
Tom's head snapped back as he gasped with surprise...she was tighter than anything in the world! He couldn't believe the feeling she gave him as she flattened her ass to his legs, purring suddenly and loudly in his ear as she started to pump herself up and down on him, slow at first, then faster and faster, getting a little louder with her purrs. Her claws dug in harder, hurting his chest as her head arched back, her eyes rolling with pleasure as she started to become the animal once again, moving her hands over his chest and belly sharply.
