The suns are shining brightly not caring in the world and pitied me aka new transmigrator. Yes. Suns, as two suns. No wonder it was scorching hot. It must be a hot season now. I keep walking and walking in a certain direction hoping to spot a castle wall. I'm thirsty as I didn't stumble upon any water source. My throat felt dried. My stomach keeps grumbling as to reminds me to serve it with food soon. My cowardly self could not even pick the fruit from the trees as they all looked weird. What if they are poisonous? I didn't want that kind of pathetic death.

I'm hungry, thirsty and my feet hurt like hell.

Yes. I'm rethinking my life decision now. Am I doing right? What if I'm making a bad decision like how I decide for my study course? Should I go to the Camel Hump Valley? Is it bad that I want to go to Beast City? Am I courting death right now? Am I being extra stupid now like How I am in my exam? My throat closed up. Tears welled up in my eyes. My vision is blurry.

*Slap* I slap my cheeks, gaining my composure back. Hoping the electrifying sensation will stop my tears. My emotions have been all over the place since I got here.

Well, to start with, I'm not that smart. I didn't know a damn thing about surviving in the wild. I'm the kind of girl who likes to be in their safe zone and enjoys shopping, reading and baking. I'm not the kind of tough girls that can survive on their own no matter where you throw them.

As I keep walking, I stop by a boulder and sit. I tend to my feet. No wonder it hurts like hell. It's full of cuts here and there 'I'm going to get a blister anytime soon. Why the hell would I get transmigrated with only a towel?! Even Qing Qing got a full set of clothes. And if she didn't have shoes, males would gladly princess carry her without her asking. Hmph. Lucky her. At least her feet would not get hurt like mine' Feeling tears start to well up again, I stand up and continue my walk to the awaiting Beast City.

The sky is painted with orange hues signing that the night will soon come bringing the darkness where dangers lurk within. I sigh. Seems like I need to search for shelter soon. I need to rest up before I can continue my journey. Let's settle for a suitable tree or possibly a cave tonight.

The sky grew darker as fast as time went by magnificent jungle turned eerie and quiet in an instant. I still have not yet found a suitable shelter. Every twig and twag of sound makes me nervous. 'Can I survive tonight?'

Before I could even pray to my lucky star for my safety, a loud roar enchoed. Followed by screech and scream. I froze. Is there a fight nearby? I should distance myself. It will not be good to be caught up in that.
Turning around to take a flight, a loud boom sounded and a big scorpion came flying toward my direction and crashed into a tree behind. 'Wait, scorpion?!' I stop. My blood running cold. As far as I remember, I'm not good with scorpions. Never when I once got pranked by my friend. They locked me in a bathroom with a lot of scorpions inside. And I will never be on good terms with its kind as in this world, they kidnap and torture females.

I scrambled on my leg as I tried to get far away from the scorpion. Yes, tried. As soon as I turned to run for my dear life, the scorpion charged forward and seized me up. I scream frantically as the eerieness creeps inside my skin. I keep struggling and wiggling my body to get away from it. The scorpion tightens its grip as blood tickles my skin.'Is this really how I'm gonna die?'. I closed my eyes and cried my heart out. Not caring in the world what happen. As long as someone hears me and helps me. Anyone! '

Suddenly, the grips loosened and I fell to the ground. Startled, I opened my eyes only to see a magnificent white tiger standing in its glory on top of the scorpion. He must have killed it while I'm throwing a crying fit. The tiger furs were covered in blood making it look ferocious and intimidating. Its face was covered in scars. 'It must be from other battles' I thought. But still, he does save me.

My saviour.

Controlled by emotion, I stand up and lunge myself at the tiger. Holding it for dear life, I cling to its neck still sobbing. The tiger froze in its place. My tears and snot must be smeared on its fur now. Well, who cares? I'm not going to act tough now that I have been freaked out.

A moment later, a beastman approached me. "Female, are you okay? Let me take you to our base camp." Now that I had calmed down a little, I realized that there are three other beastmen and one of them is holding a scared female. She must have been kidnapped by the scorpion earlier. That's how the fight broke up. I didn't answer the question and just tightened my hold on the tiger. I think that all of these scenes are familiar. Still pondering, the beastman looked at the tiger and said "Winston, it seems that she didn't want to go with anyone else. I think you should bring her yourself. Anyway, thank you for helping us to save our mate".

Suddenly, the tiger morphs into a handsome male with white hair, a strong figure and a scar on his face. Then it all clicked. This must be the scene where Winston saves a female who lost her mates to the scorpion. After the salt caravan safely arrives at the Beast City, the ape king gives Winston a chance to ask the female to be his mate because as a saviour, he has the right to court the female. Then to his dismay, he got rejected by her in front of people at the Beast City. I remember this scene so vividly as I pitied Winston and thought that the female was stupid because Winston was a strong and capable male. It will be a waste to reject him.

Suddenly, my emotions got the better of me because as soon as I saw his face, I bawled my eyes out for the second time and clung to him like a koala. Winston got all flustered and did not know what to do. "Female, are you okay?" "Are you hurt?" "Let me see and I will take you to a witch doctor". Ignoring his words, I just keep having my crying fit ignoring the people around me. How could you not when you are alone in this world without knowing anyone? From the constant storytelling from my friend, I could say that I quite know Winston. He is a caring, gentle and responsible type of man. I'm having a crying fit to let out all of my pent-up emotions.

Finally, there will be someone that I could depend on. I would not be alone anymore.
