Chapter 4: I dreamt it
Euisa and Beia were in a mix of feelings of shock and glad to see this familiar face of Visan the king of Waxulia kingdom and uncle to Gonten. The man was pleased to have arrived at a time when the two were in danger keeping their lives safe for much longer when he and the soldiers came to kill those human soldiers with mercy.
“King Visan what a welcome sight it is to see someone like you here, but should one who rules truly be out here during the chaos of this madness? It is a risk in your life that can’t be taken lightly. If something were to happen to you then this kingdom will be lost.” Euisa says.
“Oh, please you think of all the tiger people in this kingdom that I will be someone to worry about my safety over my people. I feel hurt in my pride to think, I will be at any risk by these human hands. Have you forgotten the hard work I put into my kingship over the years dear Euisa?”
“He got a point; Visan didn’t become king by….” Beia comes to be cut off by the wave of pain coming from the stomach.
Visan couldn’t miss that seeing the agony Beia was in telling nothing more than the coming of a child, yet at a time like this when the kingdom of one home is under attack doesn’t sit too well on being a good Omen for a child born of war or maybe it is in its own way.
“Beia ready to give birth at a time and place such that this should not be right, you need to leave for a much better place to have the child,” Visan says with a serious tone.
He snaps his fingers calling to a large tiger to come over to their location. It stands between him, Beia, and Euisa.
“Take the tiger, ride the beast out of this kingdom with those who are fleeing as well. I will not have my nephew, child, and lover fall into enemy hands like this day.” Visan says putting the head of the tiger.
“If I wasn’t in need to give birth, I would stand and fight, but the will of one to be a mother soon is far stronger in making me concerned over the life in my belly,”
“I know that is the tiger pride we have, wanting nothing more than to fight to the end to protect our homes. Yet what reason is there for a home if not of any of our people is to live this day for there to be one in the future.”
Beia nods her head at Visan as he does the same where at the moment they wonder if this is to be the last time they see each other or if there is to be another day their faces will come to be looked upon again.
She couldn’t help but give him a hug that meant deeply between them when King Visan had been a person to lean on in times like that of a father she could turn to in need, he returned a hug.
Since Visan ever could remember, he has always been there to watch Beia and Evisa grow up becoming the fine young warrior tiger ladies that they are by the day he took them in as his own from a dear friend who could not do the job when at the time near death door.
Asking this man to be the one taking care of these two girls.
After a few seconds, it is broken off and Beia moves to the tiger lowering its large body down for easy going on getting on the beast to ride out of the kingdom.
“What about you sister, are you coming along with me, or will you stay and keep on fighting?” Beia asked.
“Staying longer to give aid for as much as I could for those of yet having gotten out of this Kingdom. So, I won’t see you and the little one till then sister.”
“Then by the tiger god, I wish you all a safe and alive life when we come to speak with each other again after the event is all over.”
She then had the tiger start moving to find the way out of the kingdom leaving behind those wanting to stay and keep on fighting.
“My king, more of the human soldiers are approaching.” One of the were-tiger soldiers says alerting everyone around.
“Good need to bring up the mood with fighting.”
“I agree there isn’t a need for us to be feeling like this is the end, no there is going to be a tomorrow like always.”
Visan and Euisa turn around seeing the new numbers of human soldier charging their way,
“My fellow tiger kin let us show these invaders what it means for our race to be known as the wildest and bravest warriors in these lands,” Visan says to give encouraging words to the others with him.
He soon let out a roar that was so loud that even the human soldiers had to stop moving due to the effects of making them feel a sudden fear.
An opening was made, and Visan took it charging straight towards the group at the level speed the body could summon up. In the next seconds, he tore right through the first human he could get, lifting that one into the air for the others to witness their own get thrown to a wall by the might of this demi-human.
“Come your worthless shits, show me what you got when attacking my home.”

/Outside from the kingdom of Waxulia/
Beia watches from a long distance on the tiger she is raiding, looking up at the fallen home she and those around watch the same scene of the smoking going up into the air and the human army that goes on pouring in.
She did not need to know what the other of those who got out were feeling at the moment. When inside her heart she knows the kingdom is lost this time and worries for those that are still fighting inside.
Beia has a hand on her stomach still feeling the pain of the child wanting to be born, but she fights it for more time until finding the right place to let it happen.
“One day my child in my belly, you will be the one to bring back the formal Glory of the kingdom of Waxulia, I dreamt it and know it to be true for what the tiger god has set in fate for you.”
