Serina was alway happy to near her sister. TOgether they stayed warmer and not be afraid of any loud noises. She hated loud noises so much that she would go into hiding. She only wanted mama and dada to bring food. She was so very hungry and couldn't find anything on the floor to eat. A big person came and gave food. Soon she was full and sleepy. She held her arms up to be held. The big person picked her and her sister. The big person was kind and warm and she was so very sleepy.<br/><br/>A java tiger was found to be nearly the same temperament as Serena. The DNA was used to be spliced into Serena once she was well nourished. Her body readily accept the DNA and over time a striped pattern formed on Serena's skin. It was a deep tanish orange and then a few stripes kept turning darker until they were black. Her hands were still slender human shaped hands but under the nails grew the nails of a tiger, pushing the human nails away from the nail bed. Her feet too were slender. Just like the fingers, the toes were growing the sharp claws of a tiger, pushing the human nails away from the toe nails. It hurt so very bad that Serena cried nearly all of the time. After months of pain, Serena had true tiger claws protruding out of her hands and feet. The soles of her feet harden in spots but not the hands. They were still as smooth as a human's hands are.The base of her spine was a short set of tail bones. Soon more bones formed and stuck out more from her back until a long line of bones formed a tail. Her skin began to get furrier. Not long hair like on her head but short smooth hair.<br/><br/>Years past and Serena was a young lady of sixteen years. She was to be pitted against her sister Sophia in a hunt. To see who was the best tracker. She was sure that she could the meat much better than her sister could and she could swing thru the trees much better. Soon as that door opens she was going to race up to the top of the ramp and into the woods and find the dummy before Sophia does.
