Summary: Was it here around that previous time? Frankly speaking, I don't recall at all. I could literally felt my skin ... okay should be fur actually ... spiking up since I'm a frustrated panicking freaking out white tiger now.

Chapter 6: Strange happening
It was the next day afternoon after waking up. Doctor Ku and my uncle were back again to check on me. This time, both of them sat down on the floor beside the thin mattress which I was lying flat on my back with. After making themselves comfortable sitting cross legged on the floor, "So what happened after that? After turning into a white tiger?" My uncle asked with curiosity wanting to know more about my dream. I looked toward the ceiling for a while, taking a deep breath before returning my focus on both men to retell the dream further.
After turning into the hated white tiger, I tried to track down the same path which Rose had led me the previous time I was here. Determined to reach the small cottage, perhaps for some answers, to find anything or anyone there. However no matter how hard I tried to, the path further up was blocked by a strange blue beam which kept the small cottage further away with each step I took. Was it here around that previous time? Frankly speaking, I don't recall at all. I could literally felt my skin ... okay should be fur actually ... spiking up since I'm a frustrated panicking freaking out white tiger now.
Deciding it was no point trying to move, I stood still before the blue beam. I could felt a strange aura around it, as if it was trying to stuck me into it constantly. Panicking, I took some steps backward immediately and slowly leaned on my front paws, crouching my hinds in a position, waiting to strike or escape if anything will to happen now.
A weird sound suddenly capture my attention from the right, caused my heart to beat faster. I almost felt like breath was been sucked away from my lung at that point of time. Nervously, I darted my eyes sideways toward the sound instantly. From a safe distance, I noticed something was slowly uncovered from the earth beneath, jerking and grinding upwards momentarily.
With curiosity, perhaps one of the most notable traits of the cat family, I could not stop the desire to explore. Approaching the location now with caution, I noticed some kind of stone book stand was standing now above the ground. Upon reaching a full view, I could saw a closed leather-covered book was placed on top of a sapphire surface.
Wondering what was written in the book, I tried my best to open it, nudged at it with paws, nose, chin, whatever I could but to no avail. This will be getting very challenging for a white tiger I presumed. What was I thinking? Stupid! Defeated I slumped down on all paws, fuming at the air just for something to blame at.
Maybe this was just a bad dream? Couldn't be real anyway, or could it? Yeah must be and all I just need was to wake up and everything will be alright.
"You really thinking so?" A voice suddenly rang.
"Huh?" I turned my head at that sudden voice, looking everywhere but couldn't found anything.
"Over here, kitty." The voice chuckled.
"Where?" I asked.
"Here, the book stand." The voice replied.
"You can talk?" I asked again.
"Yeah and read mind too If you are wondering." The voice chipped with amusement.
"Are you really a talking book stand? Or something else?" I asked cautiously.
"That was a good question." The voice hesitated for a while.
"I was something perhaps someone previously..." The voice sighed.
"Can't remember who or what I was anymore ..." The voice sounded sad this time.
"Now yeah I'm just a book stand and one which could talk and read mind." The voice continued with smugness.
Well thing was getting weirder and weirder now, I mused.
"You bet." The voice rang again.
End of chapter 6.
