The Rainbow Tiger: Legend of the Terai

Night had come once again, Rainbow Dash was now sleeping in her own spot in the cave. Which was next to Baghraja's spot, but as she was sleeping, something odd was happening, slowly, she was growing a tail, then blue fur with rainbow stripes, then her ears became tiger-like, her arms turned into legs, she grew canines, and then retractable claws. Now a voice was now her head, and it was telling her to do two things.

"Hunt, kill, hunt, kill, hunt, kill." Said the voice

Rainbow Dash opened her eye, her pupils were now slits, and she got up on all fours, and ran off into the night. She found a herd of chital deer, but before she could even try to kill one, a langur monkey sounded the alarm and the deer ran off. This did not get her down as she went to look for other prey, she found a Wild Boar. She lunged at it, but when she caught it, the boar fought back with it's tusks, and luckily for it, she didn't have any experience in hunting at all, so it got away easily despite the attackers speed. Rainbow Dash now had to go try to hunt something else, but she kept on failing. At one point she even tried to attack an elephant calf, but the adults kept her bay, but Rainbow Dash wasn't going to give up this time. She tried to stalk the calf, but the elephants kept getting her scent and chased her off. This of course, caused the elephants to make loud noises to try to scare her off. At the same time, the noises were waking the others up back at the cave.

"Ugh, what is going on?" asked Baghraja

"Not sure, but whoever is causing them to do that is going to be sorry." Said Mahaan Ek

"Uh guys, we have a problem." Said Tendua

"What is it?" asked Little Crow

"Rainbow Dash is gone!" answered Tendua

"Oh crap." Replied Mahaan Ek

"Little Crow, can you track her down?" asked Baghraja

"Sure thing." Answered Little Crow

Little Crow took a sniff on Rainbow Dash's trail, but he noticed something wasn't quite right with the scent.

"Weird, I can smell her scent, but for some reason she smells like a tiger!" said Little Crow

"Hey don't blame me, she wasn't laying on me okay." Said Baghraja

"We must hurry before something bad happens." Said Tendua

They ran out into the night, following Little Crow as he was following Rainbow's trail. This led to them getting charged at by the same elephants that chased Rainbow Dash.

"YIPE!!!" shouted Little Crow

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" screamed all of them

"LEAVE OUR CALVES ALONE!!!" shouted the Matriarch elephant

"We're sorry we made you scared for your calves, but believe me when we say we're not interested in eating an elephant calf right now." Said Mahaan Ek

"Oh really? then why are you this close to my herd?" asked the matriarch

"We're following the trail of a teenage human girl that just happened to come this way." Answered Little Crow

"A teenage human girl you say?" asked the matriarch again

"Yes, she has long rainbow hair." Said Tendua

"Rainbow hair!? We did see a girl with rainbow hair, but she was part tiger." Said the matriarch

"Wait, part tiger? Like me?" asked Baghraja

"Yes, we'd better move on, happy searching to you." Said the matriarch

"Part tiger? is that why Rainbow Dash smells like a tiger all of a sudden?" asked Tendua

"I wouldn't be amazed if that were to be the case, now follow me!" ordered Little Crow

They kept on following Little Crow, until they got to a river. What they saw there made their jaws drop alright, they found Rainbow Dash, only now she was part tiger, and she was fighting a crocodile.

"We have to get her away from the crocodile, quickly!" said Baghraja

The ran forward as quickly as they could, Mahaan Ek and Tendua held Rainbow Dash down while Baghraja and Little Crow talked to the crocodile who went by the name of Javanar.

"Are you okay Javanar?" asked Baghraja

"We're terribly sorry about this." Said Little Crow

"I'm fine thank you, I was just coming out of this river to get that carcass over there, but then all of a sudden she attacked me and naturally I fought back. But unlike you and Mahaan Ek who have defeated crocodiles in the past, she seems to be inexperienced." Explained Javanar

"We understand." Said Little Crow

"Must hunt, kill, hunt, kill, hunt, kill, hunt, kill." Growled Rainbow Dash

"Look at her eyes, something clearly isn't right in her head." Said Baghraja

"No kidding, have you seriously forgotten about the time YOU acted like this?" asked Mahaan Ek

"Oh of course! I remember now. Since I just now got that bit of memory back, I remember someone had to wack me in the head to knock me out. Who wants to be the one to do that?" asked Baghraja

Little Crow found a certain kind of fruit that would put any animal that ate it to sleep. The fruit was a type of berry that grew on a bush, it was orange, and most animals knew to avoid it. Little Crow gathered some of them up and gave then to Rainbow Dash, who then ate the berries, and then fell asleep. When that was over, Javanar said his goodbyes and went to get that carcass he was originally trying to get to, while Baghraja and Mahaan Ek ended up carrying Rainbow Dash back to the cave with Tendua and Little Crow following behind. Once they got back to the cave, they put Rainbow Dash back on her sleeping spot, and then they went to their sleeping areas and finally got a good nights sleep.

The Next morning, Rainbow Dash opened her eyes as she normally would, yawned, and got up. But then she took a look at where her arms were, seeing that they were now legs, and her feet had become paws.

"What's going on!? What's happened to me!?" asked Rainbow Dash

She saw that she now had blue fur and rainbow tiger stripes. But then she looked behind her, and saw that she even grew a tail.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! screamed Rainbow Dash

"I DIDN'T DO IT!!" shouted Baghraja after he was awoken by Rainbow Dash's scream

"Sheesh, calm down." Said Mahaan Ek

"What just happened to me?" asked Rainbow Dash

"Last night you became part tiger, and you also went on a hunting spree last night and we had to track you down and bring you back here." Explained Tendua

"What? I don't remember doing that last night." Said Rainbow Dash

"You don't remember because we gave you some sleep berries which you ate and they made you sleep, it happens to all animals that eat those berries." Explained Tendua

"You also had a wild look in your eyes, and you said the words hunt and kill over and over again." Said Little Crow

"I'm sorry I put you all through that last night." Said Rainbow Dash

"We forgive you, and you're not the only one to do that, Baghraja acted like that when he first transformed. So this leads me to believe all humans go through this when they turn into part tiger part human creatures." Said Mahaan Ek

"It's true." Said Baghraja

"You did this to me. All this stuff happened after YOU bit me." said Rainbow Dash

"I didn't know this was going to happen, besides, now this makes you more lethal, harder for Tor Chan to kill." Said Baghraja

"I guess you're right." Said Rainbow Dash
