Unprecedented (Feline Hybrid Version) [UNEDITED]

Chapter 11

               Recap: The enemy has finally found Tyra in real life!  Even though, the latter has no idea what's happening, she knows she owes him a fight. 

               Moments later, my head hit the tree trunk with a "thump" and I instantly lost consciousness. The enemy had left me there lifeless as a corpse. Yet I was pleased that they had. Think me crazy, but what happened then was a vision. It was as if the future was beckoning for me.

                I saw myself much older and mature in this vision of mine. I stood alongside the Chief on this stage which I had been to, but never in the spotlight. Leo was there too, older and still just as tall as I knew him to be, however, the difference between his height and my own future self was not as great as now.

                It seemed some ceremony was beginning. The typical murmur of the crowd before the important orators began to speak was occurring. Others were seating themselves and getting comfortable. I waited until the usual meows erupted from the crowd and my legs were numb with pain. The normal speech by the Chief, Leo's father, came. I sat down, knowing that they couldn't sense me. I was in the Dreamland. It was impossible to interfere with things like this. I had been drilled that since the very beginning.

                Afterwards, there was silence, as the Chief finally got to the real reason for the event. "Today we are gathered on this land to compliment the girl that we have brought up. She has faced challenges unlike any of us have ever seen before. She has created history. Therefore, I shall do the honours and we shall congratulate her on her efforts. She is worthy of a new title and, by petition of all the Elders, she will become the newest – and I believe finest – heir to the Solar clan. She will become the first female heir in history. Today marks the last day as the girl, Tyra and instead, a woman of distinction, Tyanna. She has proved herself to be courageous, so that shall also be added to her title as well."

                It seemed Master Manx was right after all. It was a prophecy that was going to happen.

                My future self walked towards the stage, walking right through me in the process. I felt myself hurtling back to consciousness.

                I sat up, wincing in pain. I was alive, but just and bleeding profusely at the back of my head. It hurt to move and my vision was blurry. I could only just make out somebody yelling and picking me up before I lost consciousness again.

           Earlier, Leo was having a vision himself. It was typical that those in line for the Solar heir that they had a trait of visions at a young age. He had found himself walking up to the stage, after being called up by his childhood friend, Tyra. He realised that he'd just been given the title of Solar heir. He blushed as he saw the crowd watching him. He had been quite the introvert before and was still afraid to speak. It was something that had marked him in complete contrast to her.

                Still, he gave his speech, trying to look confident, although his heart was hammering inside his ribcage.

                He awoke then to find that his friend had disappeared and ran off to find her, only to find that she was slumped, unconscious in the forest. She was bleeding and she badly needed a hospital. He couldn't bear to see the girl of his dreams die right in his arms.

            He transformed and placed her limp body on his back. He cherished the comfort of her close to him, but reminded himself that his objective was to find a hospital quick. He ran home, towards the hospital in a sweat and the nurses knew exactly what to do.

                He hoped that she was still alive and he refused to leave her side, thanking Ra that he had the authority to do so as the next in line. He was stubborn, but loyal and determined that he would be there the moment when Tyra awoke. Everyone needed her alive if they were going to defeat the leader of the shape-shifters.  

                The nurses said that she needed blood and he shouted that they give her a quick blood test. If she needed blood, he would give it to her if he could. She was his only friend and she needed to be alive.
