I hear the sound of exotic birds singing while a light breeze blows into my ears. I feel the heat on my back as the smell of grass and water strongly embrace my nose. Then I open my eyes and they slowly adjust.

I am lying down on the forest floor, everywhere I look there are exotic looking trees with vines and fruits. Next to me is a pond with lilypads and a strange looking cat animal calmly drinking next to it.

Without trying to pull its attention, I sit up and I feel how long hair falls on my back. The strange cat seems to ignore my existence as it laps water with its tongue.

As I grab my hair I notice it got a pink color. Is this my natural color? Then when I look down I see no clothes. I am completely naked! My body looks like a girls, complete with curves. But there is a crucial difference. I see no boobs. Then when I look at my crotch there is a shocking discovery. I am a boy?

That is when I remembered how I got here. I had died and got a second chance from god. And when I got asked what wishes I had. I said I wanted to have the ability to easily befriend animals. And maybe become a girl in my next life. Looks like god took maybe literally.

”Be careful what you wish for...”

I quietly grumbled to myself in a girly voice. It was then that the strange cat looked at me, and tilted its head. Then it gave me what looks like a smile and sat down. Looks like it urges me to go to the pond.

It was at the pond I made the second shocking discovery of my identity. It is not just that my body looks like a girl, but my face is completely devoid of any masculine features. I wonder how well this will spell for my future love prospects...

Then the cat probably tried to comfort me as I sat naked beside the pool in crying in despair. It licked my arm. A futile effort on its part, this is nothing I will get over that fast.

After what felt like ten minutes I stopped. Looks like I act like a girl too. Easily getting enveloped in emotions.

When I looked up, I now saw a monkey like creature holding up a fruit in front of me. Is it for me I wondered?

”...for me?”

I asked the monkey. It then put the fruit in front of my feet and backed away a step. Looks like it trying to befriend me. Heh.

”...thanks...”

I said as I picked up the fruit and took a bite out of it. As I looked around I saw animals of varying species had gathered around me. From the smallest rat looking animal to the biggest sabertooh cat looking animal. I got quite the animal magnetism. God did actually give me the power to befriend animals...

My name is Kim, I love animals. And I wished to befriend all animals in my old life. My wish finally got granted in this strange new world. But at the expense of my masculinity. I was never truly interested in relationships with either girls or men in the past, but I felt comfortable being a man.

After this initial discovery phase of my new life I eventually adjusted to my new body, and newfound power over animals. With the help of monkeys, I got food in the form of fruits. From animals like boars they dug up edible roots and mushrooms. And from big cats I got meat.

Until I learned how to make a fire, I slept with a sabertooth cat I named Fang for heating my small body. It felt like we made a mutual understanding immediatly. He made purring sounds as I slept beside him. Is Fang my first friend in this world?

From the meat I made a simple clothes set from the furs. It was just enough to cover my modesty and my chest. Was disgusting at first because I did not manage to scrape off all meat and fat underneath, but with time and effort it was removed.

Since I was never a craftsman in my previous life all my attempts at civilization was awful or shoddy at best. In the end, I relied on my animal friends for the majority of my needs. If I can’t make tools, I will use the animals as tools!

After what must had been a month of living out here in the jungle. I counted how many moons that passed since I arrived after all. That morning I heard what sounded like clanking metal and footsteps during my nap. Also sound of a language I strangely understand.

Fang immediatly started growling in the direction as I was napping on his warm belly. His warning made me wake up.

”Fang... What is it?”

I asked him as I was waking up. I got off him and he then started shielding me from the source of sound. His tail waved side from side as it was down. I took it as a sign these people are not good and hid myself in the pond.

The steps got closer and then suddenly stopped.

”Ohhhh, look at this angry kitty. Hahaha!”

A demeaning manly voice was heard.

”We are going to get a good price for its fur.”

Sounds of unsheathing metal was heard along with the drawing of a dozen bows. I realized what was going to happen. I could not permit harm being done to Fang.

”Fang! RUN! YOU WILL DIE IF YOU STAY!”

Fang then looked at me and saw the distress in my face. It was not until I shed a tear he realized this is a fight he cannot win. Suddenly a arrow hit him on his side, and he quickly escaped from the scene.

The animals which I have lived with could only observe the scene from the distance. Because of their innate fear of these well armed humans they could not intervene.

”Oi, look what we got here? A pretty girl out all by herself here?”

The ugly man with the bow said. I was filled with rage and sadness as I looked at this man. Mistaken for a girl by this jerk.

”Forget about the cat, we got something even better. I heard there are men who are into savages. Hahaha!”

He continued with his harsh words. Then he pulled me out of the pond and put me over the shoulder.

”You evil man!”

I cried out at him and punched his back. My punches seemingly doing nothing to him at all.

”Hahaha, are you giving me a massage you brat?”

He then spanked my butt hard and the pain was immense. A tear got forced out of my left eye. I am so helpless and humilated...

As they abducted me, I could see animals which I had got to known over the month have looks of sadness in the jungle. Even the birds had stopped their singing as if in mourning of me.

Humans are evil. That was the only thought that coursed through my mind as I stopped resisting the abduction. I fell into deep depression during the way back to the place i probably would be sold at. They was forced to feed me manually because of the state I was in.

Fang, we will meet again one day. I believe it.
