I woke up from a slumber and found myself again in the cozy bed. I yawned and somehow managed to open my sleepy eyes until I heard a scream coming from outside.

I hurry myself out of the bed and dashed quickly to the camp only to find a little boy's cheek with a bloody scratch and so I rushed to him.

" Are you okay? " , I asked the little boy

He nodded his head as a few tears slipped down his cheek.

" He is fine. " , Pan said walking up to the boy and me. " Just a little cut with this, he held a sword, is no big deal. "

" Did you do this Pan? " , I asked him rasing my voice

" Yes. " , he simply replied

" Why? " , I asked him with such disgust

" He needed to be taught a lesson. " , he said as the other boys cheered on.

I helped the boy back on his knees as his friends helped him up and moved him to a tent.

" Maybe you need to be taught a lesson. " , I spat back

Then it fell slient.

" I guess the tiger girl speaks. " , he said

" Tiger girl? No. No. Let you get this straight in that brain of yours Pan. I'm called Tiger around here and I will only answer to that name. No sweetie. No love. No darling. No babydoll. No! Only Tiger. " , I snapped

Pan's face stayed calmed with his crossed arms and darkened eyes as he breathed heavily.

" I don't know what you plan to do to me or my people, but if you ever and I mean EVER hurt them, then this tiger will hunt you down like a prey. " , I growled

Pan didn't say anything. Instead he walked over to come as he towered over me and grabbed my arm with such a strong grip that I felt bruises already forming on my arm. He leaned in and whispered into my ear.

" One thing you don't know Tiger is that there is always a hunter hunting you down and it may either let you live or kill you. So let's get this straight, you're the tiger and I'm the hunter. I captured you and there is nothing you can do about it because if you ever and I mean EVER try to escape, then I will hunt down your people and get rid of them. " , he threatened me

" You wouldn't dare. " , I sneered

" Oh but I would. " , he  gritted his teeth.  " You are just a lonely, lost tiger surrounded by hunters, so if I were you I would obey like a well behaved kitty cat. "

Then Pan pushed me enough for him to walk past me.

" I'm not afraid. " , I stated

" Oh but you will be. " , he said with a cold voice
