A Cat Who Wanted To Be A Tiger

One cat was there.

So conceited cat.

He often followed tigers who are much stronger and bigger than himself over familiarly.
The tigers are so kind that let the cat do as he wanted
but they all knew that he was still immature.
The tigers were all gentle.

The cat had yearned the tigers so much.

Anyway,
other cats don't approach for fear of tigers.
By this thing and that, the cat was admitted to be superior in every way by others.

He had already thought that he want to be real tiger.
Off course, it's impossible.
But he was serious.
And if he is regarded as serious, he must be regarded as mad.
So he didn't reveal his real intension to his friends for fear of that.


Other cats quite respected him.
So he pushed his luck and had approached tigers closer.

"I've just gone hunting with Mr. tigers today!"

"I'll go to their home tomorrow!"

He is elated completely.

But other cat also respect him more and more.
Because they also don't know about tigers so much.
And they misunderstand like unknowing things are equal to splendid things.

Everybody is nobody.



The more time passed, the less he spend time with other cats.
He had not appear their territories so much.
As usually he was following tigers.



One day,
his fang had got little bit sharper.
In addition, his claw had also got little bigger.
It maybe result of hunting with tigers.
But his body was still little.
He wanted to boast to other cats of it.

He went to cat's territory his friends were inhabiting.
It was a sunny night with full moon.
He climbed up a branch with a blight moon
and called their friends.

"Long time no see! Are you all wake up?"

Other cats had gathered in front of the tree the cat climbed.
They couldn't see the cat's figure because of moon light
but his shadow was appear on ground.
So big shadow.

"Impossible! He has became a real tiger!"

"So cool !!"

"I can't believe that ! Great!"

Finally, he got supreme respects from his friends.





However,

he had been lonely at the same time.





"So scarｙ!"

"Did you see the fang? It must be dangerous."

"He must be as fierce as tigers."

They went back to thicket.

The lonely cat went back toward tigers' territory by alone.
