six feet under

Even though the large mall did not think his mate would be under here, he had searched every corner for her anyway. His claws and pads were sore from having to climb up the rocks to avoid fall down and breaking his neck, and he was pretty certain a sharp rock had cut into his pad, so he held up his paw and stopped to lick it. Then, he smelt something he had never smelt in his three years and, although he was wary, he decided to follow the scent, hoping that Yesubai, perhaps with a pup. And he still dripped with water from his near death experience, and finally stopped to lick his paw and shake off the water, when he saw eyes. He instantly knew what it was; a big cat-he had seen the striped animals, was it tigers, moving along at night with their eyes flashing like this. So, he wanted to know what an animal was doing in this pretty place, and wanted to speak in Hindi, but decided not to as he neared the cat. He had not seen such a beautiful creature besides Yesubai, and wanted to talk to her, but was afraid he would get his throat ripped out. He finally gathered up the courage, blinked his golden, almost catlike eyes, and began to speak. She probably wouldn't understand, but he actually tried to....flirt, with the cat. With a few broken words, Kishan spoke to the beautiful cat, even though he had a mate.

"Hey....Lady.....What's....Pretty....Like....Doing...Here.....It's....Dark.....I With?"
