APOLLOS' POV.... 1 week later
I try to get the tiger to eat some of the rabbit I caught.
She opens a drowsy ice blue eye, and looks at the meat.
She seems wary, but then a look of "Ah, what the heck" crosses her face.
She gobbles down the entire rabbit, and looks at me expectantly.
I show her my bare hands, "No more! That's it! Can't hunt again until tomorrow. I do have a little something for you, though. I know your a shifter, so here."
I hand her a necklace. It's a white dragon and a black dragon forming a heart. In the middle of the heart shaped dragons, is a multi-toned gemstone Pandora and I made from her fire.
The tiger sits taller, and I do it up around her neck.
She purrs, happy.
She begins to walk around. Her long legs inspected my tent, and then she approached Pandora.
She sniffed her, cautious.
The general had discovered who I was, so he gave me a potion to turn poor Pandora black. He said all his soldiers used it. Unfortunately, it turned Pandora blue.
The tiger nods, and Pandora nudges me.
I smile, and crash onto my bed.
The tiger sniffs me again, and looks at my helmet with envy.
She tried to grab it off my head, but I managed to hold it on.
She growls, and curls up on her bed.
I sigh, and the "GO TO SLEEP" bell tolls.
I dim my lantern, and rest my head on my pillow.
I wait for the tiger to start to snore before pulling off my helmet.
I use my powers to try and find the identity of the tiger.
Nothing. Blocked.
I sigh, and cover my face with my blanket.TIGERS' PoV.
I clim out of bed, waiting for the soldier to fall asleep.
I climb up onto the unoccupied space on his bed.
I pull back the covers with my teeth, carefully.
Then, the sound of angry roars make me drop the blanket and run under the bed.
The soldier stands up, and calms his dragon.
No. I must be seeing things!
I see the king of dragons before me, calming his dragon.
How is he here?
I know that he isn't even supposed to exist anymore!
The Arsalonian king said he was killed by vigilantess.
Well, somebody was misinformed.
He slips his helmet over his head.
Heat creeps up my neck, and I realize the reason for it.
Man. He's not bad.
I hear my dragon laughing.
I hear his dragon warble in confusion.
I rush to silence mine, who I'd lost contact with.
He picks me up, and I fly him home.
I flash my IDs.
Sharon rushes to me, hugging me.
She cries, "LIBBY!"DUN DUN DAHHH! I'm evil.
