44- Mutation

Year 2022. After some groups of scientists let a virus spread across the planet, the whole population changed drastically, world now being a jungle.

They transformed in what we call hybrids. Half human and half animal. Now, it's hard to live. It's hard to survive when everything changed.

So did Tiffany Hwang's life and her unfortunate of being half rabbit and half human, with two big long fluffy ears and a peewee tail.

There were many of her kind, but they began to disappear. She had to hide from the big predators or she would end up like others. It was hard because the predators were so many sometimes she wondered what she had done to deserve such thing.

Just like real animals they had two choices. Stay in a group of one of your kind or be alone. She chooses to stay in a group of one of her kind. And because of the animal DNA, their hormones changed too. She started feeling weird whenever she's around other males and it scares her.

"Tiffany!"

She turned to see her friend there, smiling at her.

"I'm going out for some food. The others told me to no, but I can't stay here. So do you want to come with me?" He rubbed his nape nervously, while staring at her.

Tiffany blushed and brought her arms at her chest.

"Sure" She smiled at him.

He was also half rabbit. A 25 yrs old guy, named Cheolwoo. He was handsome and Tiffany always felt good in his presence. He was tall with broad shoulders and not really well build, but enough to satisfy the eye.

They went out successfully without others to see them. It was just around 2 pm anyway. They were walking side by side, and awkward silence between them. That until Cheolwoo decided to speak.

"Tiffany.."

She looked at him.

He stopped walking and took a deep breath. "I-I really like you. A lot. I mean it and I wanted to ask you if you would like to.. umm, be my partner." He bowed as he didn't dare to look up and meet her eyes.

Tiffany felt her heart beating fast, and then faster. Could it be that she feels the same. Yes, she was attracted to him. He just told her he was too. She was blushing madly.  He just told her he likes her and he wants her to be his partner. Mate? He was serious. Cheolwoo stood straight then and grabbed both of her hands, looking deeply into her brown chocolate orbs.

"Tiffany, would you like to *gulp* my mate?"

And before she could answer a rustling just a few meters away from them, was heard. It startled both of them.

"W-What was that?" She was scared, she felt it. Someone was looking at her. She felt it before. The fear was creeping up on her.

Cheolwoo tensed and pulling Tiffany behind him.

"Who's there?" He asked. His tone was rising. The rustling came again from the bushes.

They were walking and didn't realize they were in forest. Now both of them were in danger. If that was a predator then their life ended here. A growl suddenly echoed in the area they were, and then a laugh.

"Dammit." He cussed, holding onto Tiffany tight.

The laugher died down before someone appeared from the trees. It was a woman, long straight platinum hair, slender body, white round ears and long tail with black stripes.
