Synopsis: Big Cat is getting ready for his feature match coming up when he discovers that he's suddenly getting a little too into his wild persona. With no time to back out, the only direction left is forward.
*******
“We're on in ten minutes Big Cat. You doing ok over there?” Drew asked, peeking his head into the changing room from the dark, backstage corridor.
“You know how it goes Drew. You can't rush perfection, and tonight everything is going to be perfect as pie.” Big Cat answered while pulling on his tiger-striped gloves to complete his wild ensemble. He admired the fall of his trim blonde hair framing his striking green eyes. He soaked in the warmth of the dressing room mirror lights on his brow, a miniature version of what he was to expect stepping out into the sea of thousands of chanting voices of the crowd. That feeling right before going onto the stage was unlike anything else in the entire world and Big Cat savored it immensely. His purpose was stationed squarely in the arena, his home crafted within these huge metallic walls. Big Cat opened his lips in a mock snarl of victory followed by bellowing a hearty laugh, his heart racing with adrenaline for the night to come.
Drew rolled his eyes and drummed his fingers against the doorway, his shoulders shifting up and down to practice his new entrance walk as he vanished from view. Passing through the area lined with thick cables, Drew prayed the technical crew would avoid another fiasco botching his entrance music with Stevie Wonder's, I Just Called To Say I Love You.
“Woah, Drew, wait up! One last thing.” Big Cat shouted towards the hall, nearly tumbling out of his dressing room seat.
“I didn't go anywhere. ” Drew answered, backtracking the few steps properly into the room.
“Tell Kelly that tonight she gets her moment. She's been with us long enough, and I want her to make the last takedown to really get the crowd roaring.”
Drew smiled. Finally some good news for a change.
“I'll be sure to let her know. By the way, whatever you have going on with the new body paint tonight, I'm really digging it. Bold choice to change the ensemble without admin approval. So is it some PVC-whatever sort of mix or you got animatronics going on in the tail or what?”
“What are you talking about?” Big Cat reflected back, oblivious to the swift flicks and swishes of his freshly sprouted tiger tail lashing out for freedom through his attire.
Drew only laughed. It wasn't the first time Big Cat had tried something off the wall to put a new spin on the main event. “Well, enjoy yourself out there tiger. Kelly and I will be right there if it goes sour.” he said, before vanishing from view with a hastened pace to avoid being called back in again.
Big Cat peered down to spy the range of oddities Drew had observed: his exposed arms and legs were covered in a deep pattern of dark stripes with a peppering of short, stiff fur covering the area. His ears had rounded into broad disks, and even his face was growing heavy with the blunted end of a snout threatening its way forward. Again. It had happened again, This time however, there was no excuse to be found to weasel his way off stage.
He had been good for so long, keeping his emotions in check at every opportunity to stave off triggering the change, and on all nights for it to happen it had to be now during the year's main event.
Big Cat growled under his breath, the pinpricks of jutting fangs emerging from his gums numbing his jaw. The vice grip of tensed muscles loosened, and Big Cat could feel his newly developed savage capabilities. The change was happening much faster this time. He glanced up at the clock. Only five minutes left. Big Cat glanced again at his visage in the mirror, looking more and more appropriate for the wilds of the jungle rather than the ring. His large, luminous eyes narrowed, and a grin curled over his puffy lips. If he was to have no control over his impending transformation, he was going to make the most of it, even if it ended up being his final night on the stage.
Big Cat stood and exited the dressing room with pure force of will, kicking away his faux tiger boots in exchange for the immense strength of his newly formed broad paws. Despite his size, Big Cat's steps were near-silent as he traversed the hallway until his ears flicked towards the distinct hum of the audience beyond. Their energy was electrifying, invigorating and calling. It would be for them that he would show his true self. They had earned the right.
Big Cat stepped out into the blinding lights as his theme music played with an accompanying barrage of pyrotechnics fired off along the runway to the stage. The crowd grew into a flurry of hushed whispers and bewildered gasps seeing the man-tiger wave a huge paw of a hand in the air. Then he roared a mighty cry that rumbled through his jaw and down his spine to the tip of his tail.
The crowd answered back with an intensity unlike anything he, or anyone else in attendance had ever heard before. They all shouted his name. They all craved to watch what could unfold with such a creature in the ring. As Big Cat sunk forward into a low prowl, his arms bracing forward to touch the cold, scalloped metal beneath him, he was certain tonight would be a show neither he, nor the audience would be going to forget anytime soon.

Tigreblanco as part of my 50K deviantArt page view giveaway! Icon image credited to ref made by 
dear-cotton-candy. They requested a prompt of their sona transforming into an anthro tiger before a big match! Be sure to check out their page on as I think the concept is awesome (and would most likely result in some rules revisions for the sport).
Makes me wonder if there should be a match between him and my "Five-Handed" monkey wrestler character Davey at some point in the future. [His story available on my Patreon page] Hmm.....
Huge thanks to all of you who've helped me reach this awesome milestone. <3 Looking forward to the next 50K at your sides. ^^
