'Beautiful Nightmare' Teaser
#6 of Smoke
This story will be about a young white tiger that gets his life twisted upside down because of falling in love with a wrong person through internet.
It has been... AGES... I'm sorry. I am officially done with College and finished with grades that fully satisfy me... Now I have a few months of peace and thus can write again freely. If there's anyone that still actually remembers me... well... I decided to make a new story while continuing with my other ones. I have so many ideas but for some reason I can never be bothered to actually type them up. T,T
Beautiful Nightmare: Teaser
A beautiful, young white tiger slowly opens aquamarine-like eyes. While lying in complete darkness on something soft, the said eyes get used to the darkness. Not long after that he grabs his stomach, feeling unexplainable pain.
Slowly, his memory started coming back and he quickly gets up just to realize the fluffy neck has a silver, metal collar chained to what looked like a bed frame.
3 Days Earlier
"I love you..." - I say to the microphone, looking at a screen with pretty hyena girl on it.
"I love you too, dear." - She smiles and we switch Skype off. My eyes always get watery when it's time to say goodbye.
"Tomorrow is a big day..." - I say to myself while looking at her picture saved in a hidden folder on my computer. - "We will finally meet in real life..." - I run my white paw over the screen, imagining she leans into it.
Packed backpack and suitcase... ready flight ticket... a goodbye letter for my parents, explaining why I left them without warning...
They wouldn't understand how I feel.
I finally feel loved... I know she loves me too and that's why I have to start life on my own... I am almost 18... I can take care of myself.
The Present
I spot a toxic-green eye in the darkness... I feel another presence near me.
"Who... are you?" - I ask quietly, the pain barely letting me speak.
"I was pretty sure your first question would be 'where am I'..." - It was a guy... most likely around my age, telling by his voice.
"Should I worry about that more?" - I ask.
"Sleep for now... You will have more than enough time to understand this..."
I open my muzzle to ask what the hell is going on but my eyes close like curtains and soon I fall back asleep.
1 Day Earlier
"Michele, have you seen my passport?" - I ask the lovely Hyena... finally meeting her in person. I've been living in her house for the past two days and we get along really well.
"No, love, sorry." - She answers with her angel-like voice.
"Where could it be..." - I ask myself, scratching head. - "I had it in my wallet yesterday when going through the airport check-out...
For the next two hours I tried to find the passport, with no avail which got me a bit worried.
"Dinner is served, babes!" - She soon places spaghetti on the table for me and herself.
"Smells lovely." - I sniff the air and sit by the table on a couch before starting to eat. - "And tastes even... better..." - My head feels heavy. Probably from the travel.
Before I eat everything I lay down on the couch and mumble: - "Mind if I take a nap, sweety? The flight seems to have tired me out..."
I get no reply.
"Love?"
I then realize that the words aren't coming out... it was just in my head... I can't move my body and soon enough my mind shuts down.
