Jason 10: The New World

Chapter 1

No one POV

The Appolplexian shakes the wolf he is currently holding, making multiple items fall out of pockets or pouches "A map, some stones, pouches of what I think are coins..." he drops the wolf and hold up the cloak, sniffing it "at least Rath didn't make the dog piss himself."

"<excuse me.>" looking over his shoulder, he sees that the tiger woman hasn't left yet

"What do you want with Rath, little girl?" she gets offended

"<I am not a little girl! I am eight, you planchuanka!>" the larger tiger growls, stomping towards her

"LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING, LITTLE WHITE TIGER GIRL, YOU DO NOT GET TO CALL RATH A PLANKA....PLANCHUN......planchana........WHATEVER IT IS THAT YOU CALLED RATH!" the girl cowers but the Omnitrix starts to beep with red flashes

After a few more beeps, Rath is engulfed in red light and turns human, making him stumble a bit with a hand to his head "never...never getting used to that....bleh."

Omnitrix going into repair mode, Auxiliary power routed to Translator.

With a sigh, the shapeshifter starts to pick up the things Rath shook out of the wolf's pockets "Just great."

"<wh-what are you?>" Jason growls a bit as he puts on the cloak, finding it a bit large, even for his frame

"My name is Jason Tennyson. I'm sorry for....not being myself as Rath." he throws two of the 4 coin pouches to her along with the other cloak "Be safe." he turns and starts to walk off, going in a random direction

"<H-hey, wait!>"

Small timeskip Jason POV

It's about fifteen minutes into walking that I realize I can't read the map, which annoys me because that means the wolf language is different from the tiger species I scanned. And speaking of the tiger, she has been following me but has gone silent after the first five minutes of not answering her.

After a few more minutes, I stop which causes her to bump into me with me sighing "Why are you following me?"

"<.....I have nowhere else to go.>" I turn halfway to her

"And your answer is to follow me?" she pulls the cloak tighter around herself

I softly inhale before turning to her fully "can you climb up high and try to find a city nearby?" she seems startled at the request

"<W-well, yes but....>"

"Neither of us can read the map so instead of wandering aimlessly for possible days, we should try and find the nearest town." she hesitates but concedes, taking off the cloak which I hold for her

She jumps high, latching onto the trees and alternating between leaps and climbing. She soon disappears into the foliage but I can hear her rustling the leaves along with a few twigs dropping here and there.

I wait patiently on the ground for her to return, knowing I can't really do anything since the Omnitrix is in repair mode. But I noticed that the way she reacted back in the prison carriage was one of fear, specifically towards me before the wolves were going to check on us. Something about this world, planet or dimension, seems to have something going on but I can't put my finger on it quite yet.

"<Hey!>" the tiger lands on a branch, looking down from her position "<There's a town a bit from here that way>" she points to her left

Small Timeskip

I continue to walk with the girl following behind me, a bit close yet still a good enough gap to stay out of arm's reach.

"What's your name, kid?" she huffs with a bit of a low growl
