Bahamas 1990

The British West Indian Airways (BWIA) DC-9 jetliner taxied to a halt at Nassau Interantional Airport in the Bahamas. Sentinel Newspaper reporter Rima Ramoutar was one of the first people off the plane.

As Rima strolled across the tarmac, the cool Caribbean breeze wafting across the aquamarine waters that she saw upon the plane's descent, blew threw her shoulder length raven tresses a against her form-fitting T-shirt that highlighted the outline of her fabulous cleavage and filled her nostrils. It was a welcome change from having to battle the henchmen of Joshua Stone and Nina Alexander two days earlier.


While the legendary Trinidadian heroine Black Ant had bagged Stone and the evidence of his criminal activities, Alexander managed to elude her as the Tigress. Rima also felt literally sore about the fact that the fiendish fashion mogul had knocked her out easily on three occasions. The lady reporter but that thought in the back of her mind as she focussed upon spending some much needed rest and relaxation in this tropical paradise.

After picking up her luggage, Rima headed to get a taxi. She was in the middle of hailing out one cab when she felt her nipples tingle under her T-shirt. Rima glanced around but saw no one. " Hey you getting in lady?" the taxi driver asked,snapping her out of her daze. " Eh?...Oh yes... Take me to the Nassau Hilton please..." Rima stated as she got into the taxi.

As the taxi drove off, an elderly female vendor watched it go. " You be feeling plenty more in you tits before this over young girl" she muttered. The days flew by quickly and Rima Ramoutar set aside the troubles that she recently experienced back home in Trinidad. Most of the time was spent relaxing on the beach or sight-seeing.

One week later, the young journalist was walking through the street market in downtown Nassau. The market, as Rima had learnt, was a grand street fair which allowed the inhabitants of the various islands that made up the Bahamas to sell their goods to the tourists and the locals. Dressed in a tight-fitting white T-shirt which highlighted the outline of her incredible chest and a pair of khaki-shorts which did the same for her hips and well-defined legs and sandals, the Rima Ramoutar caught the attention of many in the market.

One of those was a young Rastafarian man named Sankar who spotted her from behind his stall of copper artifacts. " Hey tourist girl...Got plenty good thing to sell you" he cried as she leapt from behind his stall and ushered the lady reporter over. " Really... How can I be so sure?" Rima asked him skeptically.

" Sankar is a good boy... Take this... it very valuable..." the vendor replied and handed her a blackened copper medallion. " It tells secret of lost treasure of the pirate man...Black Jack Savage." Rima had heard of the legend of in the infamous Jack Savage who terrorised the Caribbean during the 17th and 18th century and the treasure which he had hidden somewhere in the Bahamas.

" Okay... How much?" Rima conceded and reaching into her handbag she fished out her wallet to pay for the medallion. " That all right...Consider it a gift... Momento of your time here" Sankar said and waved off the payment. " Thanks" Rima said and placing the medallion in her handbag she walked off down the street.

The beauteous lady reporter headed back through the crowd so she could get a cab back to her hotel. Just then Rima felt her nipples tingle under her T-shirt. Glancing out of the corner of her left eye she spotted to Negro roughnecks trying to look inconspicuous as they followed her. " Let's see what these two gorillas want" Rima thought and made a quick dash down a nearby sidestreet. True to form, the two thugs gave chase.

Concealing herself in an adjacent alley, the young journalist hid her handbag. Extending her arms, she began to spin on one spot. As she span, Rima changed out of her clothes into the skimpy two-piece tigerprint bikini and mask of her crime-fighting alter-ego, the Tigress. " This certainly is more convenient than how I used to change...Good thing I've been practicing" she mused.

" Where she gone?!" one thug asked his compatriot. " I think the proper question is where did she go?" Tigress quipped as she emerged behind them and placed her hands provocatively on her shapely hips. With a snarl, one thug charged at the heroine. Side-stepping him, Rima swung her right foot hard into his gut. As he slammed into a wall, the second thug attacked.

Blocking his descending right fist with her left arm, Tigress countered with a right uppercut to the jaw which laid him squarely on his butt. " Let's go!" one thug cried and the two roughnecks made a dash around a nearby corner. The curvaceous catwoman gave chase but to her amazement, her attackers had vanished. " This is really weird...but I'd better get back to the hotel and try and figure this out" Rima thought.

That night, business was bustling at the popular Fandango casino in Nassau. However from his office overlooking the activity on the gambling floor below him, casino owner Richard Maxwell was seething. " You morons could'nt stop one mere slip of a girl !!" the Englishman snarled. " We look for her boss man but some mask girl in bikini.. She beat us..." one thug moaned.

" Leave us !" a female voice ordered and the two thugs slinked out of Maxwell's office. The casino owner turned round to see Nina Alexander, clad in an emerald green evening gown enter the room. Her blonde hair had been dyed red since her flight from justice in Trinidad. " They're not to blame my dear Richard... the stakes have just been increased" Nina said as she poured herself a drink from the bar.

" I don't follow" Maxwell said as he moved away from the window. " Your men clearly ran afoul of the Trinidadian superheroine called the Tigress...It seems she now has possession of the medallion.." she stated. " A superheroine ?!...This is the last thing we need.... I've read about this Tigress... We'll never get our hands on the treasure now" Maxwell grumbled.

" On the contrary.... That's why we will get our hands on the treasure... The Tigress is just going to do the work for us..." Nina replied. " But how?" Maxwell asked. " Leave everything to me... I know just how to deal with the Tigress" Nina assured him.

In the days that followed, Rima Ramoutar slipped into reporter mode and began digging into the mystery behind the medallion. Checks at the Royal Museum of History in the Bahamas, revealed that the medallion was in fact part of the lost treasure of Black Jack Savage. However upon her return to the market, Rima found no trace of the vendor Sankar who sold her the medallion.

Police Superintendent Basil Rahim was at work in his second story office at the headquarters of the Royal Bahamas Police Headquarters in Nassau. He was suddenly startled as the Tigress entered via his open window. " What the?" he gasped. " My name is Tigress... I'm a superheroine from Trinidad and Tobago...I need your assistance" the heroine explained as she approached his desk. Mesmerised by the Tigress' fabulous tanned breasts which were barely contained by her skimpy bra...her toned abdomen...and the skimpy tiger print panty between her large thighs, the Supt chose to hear her out.

" A few days ago a friend of mine was given this medallion by a street vendor named Sankar... I need your help in locating him" Rima explained as she took a seat in the chair in front of Rahim and pointed to the medallion which was hanging around her neck.

The veteran cop tried his utmost not to be distracted by the heroine's erotic bare feet, her well-muscled legs or the strands of pubic hair peeking out from under her skimpy underwear. What would his grandchildren think?

" I'm not sure exactly Miss ...er Tigress... but most of the vendors are island hoppers and this fellow Sankar is from Andros Island...You might be able to find him at one of the guest houses along the wharf..." Rahim suggested. " Thanks Supt Rahim you've been a big help" Tigress said and departed via the window. No sooner had she gone and he'd gotten the image of her tanned buttocks out of his mind, the elderly policeman made a phone call.

The trip across the rooftops of Nassau to the wharf was made in short time and it was not long before the heroine alighted in front of the old wooden boarding house. The wooden stairs creaked under her feet as she entered the decrepit building and walked up to the desk clerk. " I'm looking for Sankar.." Rima told the old woman. The clerk eyed the young woman clad in mask and bikini before her.

" He upstairs in Room 17... You be sleeping before the night done" the old woman stated. " Thanks...but I'm very much awake..." Tigress replied with a smile and headed up the staircase. Turning down the empty hallway, Tigress spotted the room where the man she was searching for was supposedly staying. She was mere feet away from the door when she heard the sounds of commotion from the other side.

Running forward, the sexy-she cat kicked the door open and found the vendor Sankar in the being beaten by four masked thugs. " Guess you boys didn't learn your lesson from the first time..." Tigress quipped as she intervened. Her left foot smacked one thug in the chin and sent him sprawling along the floor. A second thug advanced with a knife.

Evading his wild swipe, Tigress countered by delivering a right fist to his gut and then drove her right knee into his groin. Sensing movement behind her, the curvaceous catwoman whirled round and knocked senseless a thug sneaking up behind her with a roundhouse left kick.

This allowed the other thug to sling the senseless Sankar over his shoulder and escape via a window. " Hold it !" Rima cried as she leapt out the window in pursuit. Her powerful legs made great strides as she pursued her the thug and his captive along the waterfront. Her quarry made a deviation into the open door of a nearby boatshed.

" Okay punk this is the part where you give up... You saw that you and your friends are no match for my super powers!" Tigress declared as she sauntered boldly into the darkened interior of the boatshed. There was no reply. The sexy she-cat slowly walked further into the darkness, between the shells of two speedboats that were still being outfitted.

Suddenly, she felt her nipples begin to tingle. That could mean only one thing, Rima realised. Imminent danger. Whirling round, the Tigress floored a charging thug with a right foot in the face. A left hook sent a second thug slamming against the side of one of the boats. Just then, a bright light illuminated the darkness. " What's going here ?" Supt Basil Rahim inquired as he entered the boatshed with a gun in one hand and a flashlight in the other.

" Good timing Supt Rahim...but I'm afraid that Sankar's been abducted" Tigress said as she approached him. " That's not a problem Tigress...I've called for back-up and my officers will have these criminals in custody...Perhaps we should return to Police Headquarters and see what other leads we can come up with" Rahim suggested. " Sounds good to me" Rima said with a smile and strolled out of the boatshed ...her large tanned breasts swaying sexily from side to side underneath her skimpy bra...with the Bahamian policeman.

Together they got into Rahim's black Rolls Royce police car and drove off. " In our earlier talk... You never told me how you came to be in possession of this medallion Tigress" he said...sitting in the driver's seat on the right front of the car... as he turned the corner. " Well it was quite by accident... Sankar gave to a reporter friend of mine...She had no idea what it was but apparently somebody thinks Sankar knows the location of the treasure" the heroine replied...as she sat in the left front passenger seat.


" Before I came... I did some checking of my own I obtained some documents from a historian friend of mine which you might be interested in... They're in my glove compartment" Supt Rahim said, notioning to the compartment situated in front of the Tigress. " Thanks...I'll take a look " the curvaceous catwoman replied and reached to open the glove compartment.

The heroine extracted a brittle brown piece of paper which seemed centuries old. " It seems to be very old..and written in French..." she said and started to read the contents of the document. No sooner had she done so, the paper disintegrated into dust. " Eh ?" Rima gasped in amazement. The resulting dust seemed to take a life of its own and began to swirl around her large tanned breasts.

" Supt Rahim.... Something getting to my nipples...Getting them aroused..." she groaned. " It's magic Tigress....Voodoo black magic Tigress... My employer said this particular bit of magic would arouse you... Knock your breasts out" Supt Rahim grinned as he continued to drive. As close as she was to the crooked cop, the sexy she-cat could do nothing because of the potency of the spell she had inadvertently cast upon herself. Her powerful arms and legs fell limp instantly.

" Uuuhhh....My breasts getting so sleepy...My nipples getting so hard.... You set all this up to trap me...Congratulations..." Tigress gasped as her head rolled from side to side and her eyes fluttered within the slits of her tigerprint mask. " And let's not forget our dear friend Mr Sankar... He is going to be quite useful to our cause..." Rahim stated as he turned on to a nearby pier. " Uuhh... What cause...Can't fight voodoo...Casting a spell which my breasts can't resist..." Rima groaned as the dust cloud began to fade. It's work being done as the car stopped.

The passage door was opened and two thugs grabbed hold of the dazed Tigress, by the ankles and under her arms. " Oohhh... Tiger Strength gone... Can't break free..." she groaned as they hauled her aboard a nearby yacht. The heroine was taken below to a state room, flung roughly on to the bed and the door locked. " Welcome to the Bahamas Tigress... I've been expecting you..." a female voice said.

" Ohhh... that voice... No.. it can't be..." Rima sighed as she rolled on to her back. " But it is my dear... Nina Alexander..." the former fashion mogul grinned as she hovered over the helpless heroine. She wasted no time in removing the heroine's bra and exposing her tanned breasts with their hardened summits. " Unhhh... You've captured me yet again Miss Alexander... What do you want with me...?" Tigress sighed.

" Patience dear girl... You will learn more in good time but for the moment... Sleep.." Nina smirked as she pashed a brush over the sexy-she cat's naked breasts. " Ooohhh... Ooohh... Those bristles... Tickling my nipples... Like nothing... I've ever felt before..." Tigress groaned, totally unable to mount any kind of resistance.

" The natives call it the Ambrosia ...fashioned from the pubic hairs of 100 native virgin males... Certain to arouse the erogenous zones of any virgin female.." Nina explained as she glided the brush over every inch of the captive catwoman's chest. " Came for a vacation... and I got voodoo instead... So weak... So tired...Voices in my breasts... Commanding me to black out... I must ... obey... Uuhhhhhhh...." Tigress groaned and surrendered to unconsciousness.

Nina exited the state room where Richard Maxwell and Supt Basil Rahim were waiting. " The voodoo dust and the Ambrosia will keep the Tigress' breasts weak and her unconscious for hours... Let's set sail..." she instructed them.

Hours later, Tigress was awakened by the gentle rocking action of the Maxwell's yacht as it sailed west from Nassau towards the island of Andros. The ocean breeze nipping at her naked chest. As her eyes opened and her vision cleared, Rima saw someone sitting beside her on the bed. Sankar.

" You all right Tigress girl ?" he asked. " It's just Tigress.... Ohhh...My breasts...so dizzy...." Tigress replied as she sat up on the bed. As she did so, Rima discovered that she had been handcuffed. " Take it easy... Island voodoo real strong and that spell that white chick worked on your breasts will keep em out for a while... She took the medallion after she put your lights out" Sankar explained.

" We would'nt be in this position if you had'nt given me that medallion in the first place..." the sexy she-cat admonished him. " Hey, I didn't just pick you... the spirit tell me that you were the one.." Sankar argued. Before the Tigress could reply, Rahim and two bodyguards entered the room with drawn pistols. " Both of you up on deck... Miss Alexander wants to have a chat with you" Rahim growled.

" And so you see Tigress... Since my departure from Trinidad, I have busied myself in the black arts...hence the reason why I was able to knock out your beautiful breasts so easily" Nina gloated. " I heard you boast about capturing me before Miss Alexander... What do you want with us ?!" Rima asked.

" The medallion is a mystic compass to the source of Black Jack Savage's treasure... However only one who is pure of heart can use the compass to locate the treasure..." Nina stated. " And so I'm nominated..." Tigress said. " Precisely... That is why your good friend... Professor Roy Sankar here.... gave you that medallion... " Nina added. " The treasure is cursed by untold evil... No one must possess it..." Dr Sankar declared and earned a blow to the ribs from Rahim for his outburst.

" Except of course one who is noble in his or her ideals... That is why you Tigress shall go and bring back the treasure... The spell I cast will wear off once you are underway and you will regain your powers...but we will kill Sankar if you fail to bring back the treasure!" Nina warned. Rima stared grimly at the cast of criminals that surrounded her and Sankar. " You've got me at a disadvantage Miss Alexander... I'll do what you say" the Tigress conceded.

It was near dusk when the yacht dropped anchor off the east coast of Andros Island. A motor powered-dinghy was slowly lowered into the water while Rahim and six armed thugs watched on. Tigress made her way to the gangplank, flanked by Nina Alexander and Richard Maxwell. Behind them two armed thugs kept a firm hold of Professor Roy Sankar.

" Don't get any ideas bitch... Just go and get my treasure... Remember what I said..." Nina stated grimly. " Believe me Miss Alexander... I remember only too well.." Rima replied and headed down the gangplank. Within minutes, she was piloting the dinghy towards the mangrove covered coastline ahead of her.

As the sexy she-cat drew closer to the shore line, the medallion around her neck began to glow. " Seems like I'm getting closer..." Tigress thought. The intensity of the medallion's light grew and as the dinghy neared the island's surrounding reef, there was a corresponding glow in the aquamarine waters.

" Got to get moving if I'm going to save Sankar" the heroine said as she cut the motor and dropped anchor. She wasted no time in diving into the water. Tigress made long smooth strokes as she made her way through the winding coral passageways of the reef towards the underwater light.

That source was soon identified as an underwater cavern and the heroine swam towards it. However as she neared the entrance, Rima felt her nipples tingle under her tigerprint bra. Tigress turned round and her brown eyes widened within the slits of her mask as she spotted what could best be described as some type of sea dragon approaching her.

The fabled Lusca, the guardian of Black Jack Savage's lost treasure and protector of Andros Island moved towards the invader. Tigress barely managing to avoid its lunging jaws. The heroine countered by driving the balls of both of her feet into the sea beast's nostrils.

As the Lusca lurched in agony from the blows, the sensuous superheroine swam quickly into the cave. Ahead of her, she spied a staircase carved out of the rock and headed towards it. Slowly Tigress climbed the staircase and at the top, she discovered a passageway illuminated by the light from wooden torches.

" Must be getting closer..." Rima thought as she entered the passageway and the glow of the medallion increased with every step that her erotic bare feet took over the rocky surface. The heroine was halfway down the passageway when she felt her nipples tingle.

" Eh ?!" Tigress gasped in amazement as out of nowhere, she was suddenly surrounded by elfin creatures with green skin, three fingers, three toes, and red eyes. Before she could act, Rima was overcome by a strange sensation. " Ohhh... What's happening?...My nipples feel dizzy all of a sudden.." Tigress groaned as she rubbed her eyes.

The strange creatures made no reply. " Uuhhh... What are you doing to me?... Breasts getting so sleepy....Can't afford to pass out....but... I have ... to.. Uuhhhhh" the sexy-she cat sighed. As she fell the heroine was caught by the creatures and they carried her unconscious body deep into the cavern.

Back on the yacht, Richard Maxwell checked his watch. " That girl's taking too long... How can we be sure that she didn't double-cross us ?!" he grumbled. " Because she's too naive and honor-bound to fight for justice... She won't let Dr Sankar die" Nina assured him as she fixed herself another drink.

" Think this over... That treasure is cursed... We have to leave now or we all die" Sankar warned. " The only person who will die is you and Tigress when she returns with the treasure... All the rest of us will be quite rich !" Nina gloated.

" Oohhh... My aching nipples.." Tigress moaned as she stirred. As she opened her eyes, the curvaceous catwoman discovered that she was lying on a plush velvet cushion and all around her were chests filled with gold and silver bullion and jewels of all kinds. As she got to her feet, Rima saw an old Negro woman in long flowing robes of gold enter the room along with three of the creatures she encountered earlier.

" I... I know you" Tigress said. " Yes... I am Mama Joobah... Priestess of this sacred lair... Centuries ago the pirate called Black Jack Savage saved this place... the home of the chickcharnies.... In return we granted him refuge and he left his treasure as a symbol of his bond to keep this isle and its secrets safe for all time" the old woman explained.

" I saw you at the boarding house... You were the clerk..." Rima recalled. " Yes... I have followed the events of yourself, Sankar and the evil ones..." Mama Joobah replied. " Then you know that I don't have much time before Sankar is killed..." Tigress added.

" That you came seeking this treasure to aid another and not for yourself has pleased the ancients....The one who wore your garb before would never have exhibited such values... In return... You will be granted additional powers and help to save the one called Sankar" Mama Joobah stated.

" Hey boss !!.... You better come look at this !!" Supt Rahim yelled from the bridge of the yacht. " What is it ?!" Nina Alexander cried as she took the binoculars from the crooked cop. Staring out to sea, she saw a large surge of water coming towards the boat. " Raise the anchor !!... Start the engines !!... Let's get out of here !!" she screamed.

However the actions came too late as the Lusca rammed into the small yacht with tremendous force, splitting it in two. Dr Roy Sankar broke the surface of the water, his arms flailing in all directions. " Help ! Help !" he yelled. Suddenly, Sankar felt a hand grasp his right hand. " Hang on Sankar, I have you" Tigress said.

The Bahamian professor could'nt believe his eyes. Tigress was standing on the wing of an aircraft painted in tigerprint colours that somehow was hovering over the water. " Welcome aboard my Tiger Plane...Let's go !" the heroine said as she helped Sankar into the rear seat in the cockpit.

Slipping behind the controls, Tigress took control of her mystically-powered aircraft and soared away. " No !! No !! No!!" Nina Alexander screamed as she watched her nemesis escape. She screamed again as the Lusca returned to feast on her and her criminal cohorts.

" Tigress... How?... Why?.." Sankar babbled as they flew back towards Nassau. " I'll explain everything when we get to Nassau Dr Sankar but I think for everyone's sake it's best that Black Jack Savage's treasure remain where it is... lost" Rima said.

From the shores of Andros Island, voodoo priestess Mama Joobah watched as the the Tiger Plane flew off into the distance.
