An icy, snowy, cold, dangerous mountain side where a slightly younger whiskers is risking his life to traverse this treacherous terrain. He is on another mission from 7 years ago, he is at this point a rookie bounty hunter but he probably has more experience in combat and capture than most pros do. The sun was setting and he needed to find a place to camp for the night and build a fire quickly, as he was looking for a good place and some wood for the fire, he hears someone in distress. The noises grow louder and he also starts to hear animal grunts, and he make it to the top of a side peak looking down into a valley where the sounds are coming from. Looking down from the edge he sees someone surrounded by wild wolf like creatures with antlers and they were large, like elk sized. Cheshire was there on her first mission ever and was obviously in trouble, whiskers had to help her even though he had no idea who she was. He went into his backpack and grabbed some sort of pole; he released a switch at one end letting it pop open. It transformed into a hang glider as the pole expanded, unfolded, and took shape.
Whiskers took a few steps back, getting into position for a nice a decent jump where he wont slip on the snow or ice. While this is happening, Cheshire walks out of the thick woods around her and into a clearing where he decides to take a small break. This was her first mission as an official bounty hunter, so far so good as she had an easy time tracking her target to a near by icy mountain next to these woods. At this point she was determined to be successful at any coast, a little over confident because she had a certain level of natural ability. She had a sketchy background and had to always prove she was worth living, worth being around and she definitely had the ability to do this. Like everyone she isn't perfect but she hated to ask for help or when she did get help, she hated to admit it.
She at this point was already upset because she was behind schedule, kind of got a little lost, which is why she wasn't expecting the stag-wolf ambush. These animals are ferocious beasts knows to be herd hunters in the west forest of the mountain however she was in the east forest so what were they doing here? They surrounded Cheshire as she was setting up her camp site, she was taking time to prepare a safe a secure camp with her equipment a dome tent that had defenses on all sides when fully set up and an opening was a perfect place to set up camp so she could have a 360-degree view. Or so she thought, as before she had time to get everything prepared the stag-wolfs came running out. She let out a scream in pure reaction to the huge animals circling her, she snaps out of it though as she grabs her quick-fire cross bow and tries to launch an attack before they could, to scare them off. The pack got her though as she wasn't ready, she was so prepared she didn't expect the unexpected. An antler to the back tossing her to the ground, back torn into. They circle around her as she screams out and slowly stands back to her feet, a second wolf looks like its about to charge in for a bite as it growls before in jumps into action.
Snap! Teeth clench down, hard, drawing lots of blood, but not to Cheshire. Whiskers is on the beast wrestling it to the ground biting it in the throat and stabbing its back with a dagger that's been hexed, it will slow down any foe it does damage to. Whiskers stands after up and looks the other three in the eyes waiting for the next move. He was sore and tired he has glided down and let himself fall through the air in just enough time to save the wounded tabaxi from death, not sure if he could kill the others without the ambush, he had to think quick. "rawr, ahahah, rawr" he waves his hands and makes a bunch of noises and grunts scaring the 3 left off, back into the woods. He runs over to her and asks "are you okay? Well of course you are not, but hang on ill help." All in one thought.
Cheshire eyes slowly open as she hears a fire crackle and feels its warmth, eyes adjust and she doesn't quite recognize where she is. A soft and gentle voice sounds in "finally awake, good. Here, have something to drink and maybe some food." Cheshire gives this Tabaxi a look up and down to size him up, "where am I? who are you?" the two banter a bit as Whiskers embellishes how he saves her and she claims to have it all under control. Eventually she lets her guard down a bit, enough to accept water and food. They chat more and discover they have the same target. "I was told I was the only hunter with this target!" Cheshire proclaimed but whiskers said that this happens especially when a hunter is new and they are thought to have low chances of success. Pride hurt but whiskers said he saw potential in her and no one ever believes in him either. the pair start to bond slowly as they agree to sleep and rest to gain their strength as they will head up the mountain together.
The next day the pair is making good time up the mountain they need to find Dr.Teelak, a yeti scientist who needs to be captured on the charge of avoiding arrest. she made some sort of biological weapon that was used to kill hundreds of thousands of lives. on their way to the top most cave where she is rumored to be a huge rumble echoes off the rocks and through the cavers. huge ice sheets sliding down the mountain from above, it's an ice slide. Whiskers quickly grabs Cheshire tingly and holds her close as the pair squeeze in-between some rocks as close in as the can underneath an icy ledge and let the ice slide crash by them. Boulders, slush, sleet, and ice fall past them as Whiskers take a few hits to the back. He made sure his body was in-between her and the ice slide, as this was all happening he looked at her in the eye and simply smiled as he saw her eyes and cheeks blush. As the ice slide starts to subside whiskers says "saved you again" with a grin and slight laugh that made Cheshire push out the way and reply "I didn't need your help!"
