The main camp was at the very edge of the jungle, and on the other side was the open savanna. But what a certain tape using hero didn't know, that there was a creature in the jungle that would change his life forever.


Sero's POV

It was the end of the forth day into the expedition and we haven't even scratched the surface of what the jungle had instore. It was now night fall and everyone was enjoying their meals and sharing conversations, until Jiro brought up a topic that everyone was wondering about.

Jiro: "So Mr. Lethabo, is there a place in particular that we're going?"

The conversations stopped to listen. Lethabo just smiled, as if he knew she would ask that question. "Yes my dear we are, we are heading to a very sacred part of the jungle. It is called the Tree of Pease, it is a giant banyan tree that stretching taller that 1300ft, it has a base of 500ft in diameter, and it is said to be over 8000 years old." This shocked everyone (except Bakugou), that something like that existed. "The reason we're heading there is because is that this tree is home to several species of animals. Gorillas, elephants, monkeys, birds, even lions and tigers. Predator and prey able to walk beside one another with no blood shed."

Everyone's eyes were as big as dinner plate. "Please, that's not the only reason we're heading up there. Personally the only reason I came long is to see that white tiger." Said one of the men. He was tall and slim, with blue eyes and blond hair in a pompadour style.

Sero: "White tiger? I thought they lived on top of mount ions."

"Pay Allen no mind, besides, the white tiger he's referring too is only ancient legend." Mr. Lethabo said with slight irritation in his voice. "Can you tell us the story?" Momo asked so casually. Everyone was silent, interested what would be said. "The people say that the White Tiger is the manifestation of a jungle queen. Sent to protect her kingdom and to punish those who poses a threat to it and its inhabitants. When the moon is full and the air is sweet, she pierce the silence of the jungle with her mournful call, now some say that she is looking for blood others say that she is calling for the king that she longs for, but well never find." After Mr. Lethabo said that, all the girls let out a 'aw', in unison. "By day, she rules the jungle with an iron claw, but by night,"

Bakugou: "She and bigfoot run the candy counter and the jungle cinema, now playing all counts Planet of the Apes."

'Typical that Bakugou would make some kind of smart ass comment.'

"Don't be rude Bakugou," Mina said smacking his arm. ", besides it's so sad. Never finding her king. Forever being alone, I don't think I could live like that."

Bakugou: "Oh come on, you morons are dumber then you look if you actually believe in this shit."

Everyone: "Hey!!!"

As everyone began too yell at Bagugou , I simply stay quite  for two reasons.

1: It wouldn't change a thing with Bakugou.

2: It got me thinking, if there really was a jungle queen, what would it be like being a king? Or at the very least have a girlfriend.

One thing is true, I can relate with the hopes of one day finding that special someone, but never will, either because of destiny, fate, or the cosmos playing some cruel joke.


Hello everyone, I know it's been a bit and I'm sorry for that. Been having some major writers block and work has been stressing me out. I hope you continue to like the story, but know its going to be slow on the updates so bear with me.
