In the forest

In the forest

Master Leylin was rushing inside the forest while carrying Shiva. Shiva had still not woken up. He had to get away from the battlefield as fast as possible. His destination was danteluri dynasty. Sun Dynasty and Danteluri dynasty used to be allies in the ancient time. But due to the distance between them the interaction between both became less and less. And as the passage of time went, now both dynasty didn't have any interaction for past 100 years. But in Leylin mind there was still hope in the Danteluri dynasty. He was also wondering " what destiny will this kid have". He had witnessed the Shiva's transformation at that time. It was miraculous.

While he was running, there was still the sense of danger that was pressuring him. It was like the third sense of a master. He couldn't get rid of this feeling.

He tried every method to hide his trail so that the enemies would not be able to track him.

But even with all the precautions there was one miscalculation, it was not the human army that was chasing him but a black beast. Black tiger was like the king of forest , master Leylin couldn't hide his track from the natural predator of the forest.

It's speed was very fast as it was closing towards its prey.

Master Leylin was running for almost 2 hour and he took 30 minutes break to rest. If he was alone his speed will be very fast as he was known for his speed but he was carrying Shiva so his speed had decreased and he was getting tired. But uneasiness he felt didn't vanish. He again carried the Shiva and rushed towards the centre of the forest. Once he crossed the forest he would be able to find a village and rest there.

But as he reached the centre of the forest he heard a deafening roar from his back. He knew that it was not the time to run and life and death will be decided by this battle. He put the Shiva by the side of the old banyan tree and took out his silver sword. He took a deep breath and sensed his surrounding. His eyes and ears were fully focused so that every movement could be detected by him. From his left side came a black blur and it was very fast , as it was about to reach Leylin he moved towards the black blur like a flash and crossed passed it.

As he looked behind he saw a 10 ft large black tiger with red eyes glaring at him and growling. There was a sharp cut on its shoulder and blood was leaking through it. But cut was not deep enough. Black tiger was angry as it again jumped towards Leylin but Leylin stool there motionless until the tiger was about to reach him he again moved as a silver flash and he slided under the tiger as his silver sword put a deep wound in the tiger's belly. Tiger roared in pain. It's eyes were bloodthirsty as it again charged towards the Leylin but this time Black tiger changed its direction to the Shiva. Leylin expression changed as there was not enough time but the hope of sun dynasty lies with Shiva. He had to save him even at the cost of his death. He moved with his fastest speed as he came in between Shiva and black tiger but there was no time to attack. He simply thrusted his sword in the front. But force in the attack was very low. A gaint claw crossed his throat as Leylin collapsed.

"I have given my all" were his last words.

Black tiger had also lost too much blood as he moved towards the unconscious Shiva.

It lifted it's claw and was gonna give a killing blow, suddenly a white blur came and it was very fast , a huge jaw grabbed the black tiger's neck and threw it into the air. Black tiger was already very weak and couldn't take this blow as it collapsed on the ground.

There was a 15 ft White Tiger standing in front of Shiva and his eyes were deep blue.
