Gar walked through the city streets heading towards one place where he always fit in at least in his own opinion the City Zoo. It was Tuesday, the day they let people in for free. Turning down the corner he saw a massive commotion people running from the direction he was heading it didn't matter to him just yet and he didn't even realize why they were running.
The reason he didn't notice why they were running was his eyes were fixated lower than what was happening more specifically on the bouncing chest of one of the cutest raven haired beauties he had ever laid his eyes one-... well in the last twenty or so minutes. He continued forward toward the commotion humming to himself before breaking into a mumble. I'd appreciate your input.
The woman ran up to him as he continued breaking into a complete song as if trying to impress her the way a male Peacock would impress a female Peacock. In his own mind they were on the beach and slowly running towards one another. Loudly and abruptly he burst into song as she slowed down slightly as if taken aback by the sudden noise. Sweat, baby, sweat, baby, *** is a Texas drought, me and you can do the kind of stuff that only Prince would sing about. So put your hands down my pants and I'll bet you'll feel nuts.
At this point he thought his singing wasn't half bad. He was slightly delusional maybe even tone deaf but he thought it sounded pretty good.

Crrrrrrrrrrrrrack!
He swore he saw a comic book panel with the word "Crack!" in large bold letters as her hand slammed against the right side of his face turning his naturally green cheek slightly red as it began to swell slightly almost in a comedic cartoonish fashion. He continued but by this point she was gone. You want it rough, you're out of bounds I want you smothered, want you covered, like my Waffle House hash browns.
It took him a second to realize she was gone. He was too lost in his own fantasies until finally he made it to the entrance of the Zoo the front gate was wide open like it was every Tuesday. They allowed anyone, of any age to come and see the animals. Gar related to them more then he'd admit. He was caged once, watched, abused, forced to be someone's entertainment if it was up to him he'd break the cages and set them all free.
OI! Ya stupid green bashtad get away from there!
An old guttural voice called out from afar with an odd somewhat British somewhat Irish accent.
You-... you yes you! Stand still laddie.
There's several beasts running free round here.
It was then that Gar realized where the voice was coming from. It was from above a watchtower that sat alongside the gate. He was high off the ground with what looked like a hunting rifle in his arms. Garfield looked up noticing the gun immediately as a look of disgust washed over his face. His eyebrows furrowed and sunk in anger. Good, they deserve their freedom. Have you ever been in a cage? Do you know the feeling of not knowing when your next meal will come? Hmm? Do you know what chains around you wrists and ankles feel like? I bet you don't always been the one above safe from it all but you-..
The man interrupted him cutting him off giving Gar no time to finish his sentence as he spoke again.
I don't give a rat's arse about you. It's my job I'm worried about. If you go in there you die, then I lose my job. There's several Gorrillas, a few Tigers and I'm pretty sure I saw a Kangaroo. They've all slipped their cages and the Gorrillas are fighting the Tigers it's a madhouse you didn't see everyone being evacuated are you that daft? Hmm boy'o?
Gar ignored the rest and walked forward into the gate shifting into the form of a large green gorilla. He headed towards the noise oohing and ahhing as if talking to the gorrillas that had perched themselves up a tree. He approached slowing his shoulders and head lowered slightly to not offend Oooh, ahh, aaaaahh ahh ooh; What happened here? Why did you slip your cages?
The largest gorilla a silverback called back moments after Beast Boy had called out. Ahhh, ahh, ooh. Ohhh aah ahoh; The Tigers slipped their cages first. They went outside we tried to stop them, they lashed out Darrel is dead.
The dominant Silverback pointed down to another smaller silverback on the ground the gorilla was covered in blood both slash marks, a bite mark and a gunshot wound. Garfield looked back up speaking once more as he did his shoulders lifted and so did his head. Oooh ahhoooh; Return to your cages.
Something about his tone and nature made the gorillas listen they did as instructed and returned to their enclosure. They closed the gate behind them as Garfield watched closely. Well, now that, that's done better go talk to that dude.
He turned around and headed back to the gate transforming back into his human form while sniffing heaving trying to pick up the scent of the tigers. As he left the gate he looked up the old geezer and flashed a face of disappointment. The gorillas have returned to their cages. Put the rifle down before you shoot your eye out-... kid.
He didn't know why he referred to the man as 'kid' maybe it was the way he acted or how what he did hurt Garfield in a way he couldn't understand either way the man had played a part in the death of that gorilla named Darrel and Gar didn't want him killing another animal. Not when he could do something about it. He walked forward past the elevated emergency tower towards the city streets following the tigers scent. Garfield didn't consider himself a hero, but the tigers couldn't roam free in the city. They'd be killed, and he couldn't get them anywhere where they'd be safe so he decided it'd be best to return them to their habitat. Turning down an alley he heard a roar and then a loud feminine scream.
He shifted into the form of a massive green tiger and began to stride down the alley going from zero to forty miles per hour in a few second. He tackled a large white tiger turning to face the same women who had smacked him merely a half hour ago.
Oi, run.
He spoke, she paused. Did-... did it just talk?
GO! He roared with a feral intensity and she turned and bolted Garfield couldn't help but watch the way her butt jiggled as she ran up the alley. While preocuppied the white tiger lashed out gripping Gar's side with his sharp teeth. He yelped in pain before roaring again. Rawwwwr; You stupid bastard I'm here to help you.
The white tiger roared back questioning him he cried out that the other tiger that had escaped with him was already dead. Roooar; M-... my mate. They killed her. I just wanted-... to be free-... with her.
I know how it feels, but you're not save here. You have to go back. They'll kill you too. Gar tried to convince him that returning to his habitat was the safest and most secure way but the tiger wasn't listening it was racked with loss. Garfield was tired of the shit, he struck the tiger with a full on head rush as it hit against the wall it was knocked unconscious alive and well just asleep. In his tiger form he slowly dragged the smaller tiger back to the front gate speaking in his regular voice he called out to the man on the guard tower.
You better pay me for this.
He drug the tiger the rest of the way to his enclosure passing the Silverbacks on his way. He tossed the tiger into the tiger habitat and shifted back into his human form locking the gates and returning to the front gate. ****ing Tuesdays. was just supposed to be a day to relax. It's been weeks, when am I going to get over it. I just leave people behind. It's all I'm good for.
He was mumbling to himself as he walked through the gate the old man met him at the gate with a few dollars in his hand. It wasn't much but Garfield didn't even care at this point he was done. He wanted to sleep. Being slapped by a pretty girl was the highlight to his day. What a shitty day that was.
That's when he saw the Kangaroo. He sighed heavily and looked back towards the gate and the Kangaroo hopped past back into the Zoo.
