you were a part of the task force and one day during a mission you found a lost kitten and took it back to the base and everyone loved it

a few months pass and everyone finds out that it was actually a black panther, not a kitten, but the panther saw you as a mom/dad and it would protect you like it’s life depended on it

a recruit tried to playfully hit you but the panther swatted at them and growled, it was adorable since the panther was still little
