Vashkii. They were otherworldly creatures, from a planet called Rivium. A book has landed in your library that taught humans about them; about how they lived among humans as normal creatures.

You thought it was just…. A fairy tale thing. After all, no such thing as a creature who fed off of negative energy, right?

You were sitting at home, enraged at your boyfriend, who had the gal to cheat on you with your sister. What kind of man did that?! And why would your sister agree to it?!

As you were sitting in the couch, you heard a creak from upstairs. So you sat up irritatedly, thinking your boyfriend snuck back inside. You got up and stormed up the stairs and into your bedroom, only to see….

A panther. A black panther, staring at you with orange eyes, just perched on your bed and sniffing. You almost screamed.

“Be not afraid…. I am here, let me… help you.”

The creature said. The panther had just…. Spoken? It hopped off your bed and started to approach you, causing you to fall backwards. It crawled all the way next to you and pushed its snout into your face, taking a deep breath in.

All the rage you had felt seemed to leave your body, and you felt.. peaceful.

The creature pulled back, it’s feline ears up.

“…. I am Bafgeria, and I am a Vashkii…. You have so much rage human… please, let me live with you. I can help you.”

The creature said, now known as Bafgeria. It seemed desperate to stay with you. Would you let it?
