| - You strained your eyes to see over the thick expanse of land. Towering rock monuments, stretching across the land-frames, loomed over you. An ominous feeling crept over you as you padded up the mountain some more. As you looked up at the dank horizon, there was smoke encircling the dusky indigo sky. How curious. Another curious smell. Blood. In front of you sprawled out a body of a youth-like figure. Dread consumed you as you stared at it's lifeless body. There was a gash on it's throat. Rocks pulverizing it to the ground. How could anyone survive here, there is no way there is any life-form here you thought. You started padding down the mountain, then suddenly a belligerent hiss resonated from beyond the hill. A Tiger. The dread returned, compelling you. You came to an abrupt discontinuation. Ecru eyes interlocked with yours, staring right through you. The behemothic figure turned around, then seemingly it vanished, leaving you isolated. Suddenly there was a harsh collision on your rib-cage, sending you reeling. "You killed her!" A voice spoke nefariously. The Tiger you saw from earlier looked up. "That was my apprentice." The manner was sinister, but grief was flooding through it. "I didn't kill her." You growled and challenged the Tiger, though the feeling crept instantaneously over you. I'm going to die. Suddenly the crevices seemed to split and break apart even more. "Rock fall!" You screeched. The Tiger snarled in rage, there was a sharp collision against your embodiment as it knocked you back. "Run, eagle-brain." The once beautiful, bewildering, scenery was now a slaughter-house. The rocks were etched with catastrophic points. They plummeted onto the terrain. The Tiger stumbled downwards, his abnormally large embodiment pushing against a rock. "What are you doing!" You screeched. The Tiger didn't seem to hear you, suddenly the rock came loose from the crevice it was wrenched in. "This way!" It roared, you followed, sprinting into an unknown cavern with slight chasms in the crevices. There was a light up ahead, and the hope seemed to overwhelmingly flood into you. I'm going to get out! Suddenly a paw slammed upon your rib-cage, you were knocked to the floor, sent reeling. Above you was a behemothic, orange tiger, with stripes that ruptured through it's pelt and battlescars from earlier victories. "Why have you brought me this pitiful nuisance?" The Tiger bellowed in a sinister manner. "I saved her from a rock-fall, I think she's suitable to join this Clan." The other Tiger replied. "Very well. You have two choices, join, or die."
