Prologue
Today was the first day of March. The weather was becoming to heat up, even though it was still cold enough at night. Today was a sunny day, one of the first beautiful days of the year. People went out of their homes; children could play around without freezing.
However, today was different than usual, not in an easily noticeable way but still: because today, someone new was making his way to this place. He was a tiger, and he carried a lot of things with him, which appeared to be music instruments; it seemed very heavy, but the tiger didn't seem to mind, as he probably had gotten used to it anyway.
Now, to any stranger, the place he had gotten to on this day would seem extraordinary, as the landscape was very special, and very beautiful indeed. However, the tiger did not pay attention to this; he needed to find a place to stay. So he went to a random hotel/bar, where he proposed a deal to the administrator of the place. He proposed to perform tonight in exchange of a meal and a night here. The tiger was confident about this, because it had worked over the years; everywhere he went, he always managed to make this deal. But today, the administrator toughened the deal, saying that he would offer a meal and a place to stay only if the tiger's performance was extremely convincing and that everything went well...
Knowing that he would probably not get another chance, the tiger accepted this challenge, and prepared his instruments, selected the songs he would play and things. He tried to relax and to convince himself that everything was going to go well. Finally, the evening came, and he had to go in the bar, in front of everyone who was there tonight; and, there really were a whole lot of people in there. The tiger had not expected so many people to come by, but he had no choice now. There's no turning back, he thought.
So he went in, prepared his instruments, readied himself.
And he thought, here we go.
