It was a cold and lonesome night for the young child. Sitting alone in the dark alley, with nothing but a small white cat to keep her company. The crying child soon fell asleep, with no one left in the world, her dreams were slightly troubled.
I was running............. Looking left and right, nothing was there. Neither a tree, nor grass stood. Screams echoed around me and light danced as if it was a flame, nowhere to come from, no where to end. Then a single roar took my eyes to rest on a white tiger, one standing on an unseen cliff.
"Sala?" My childish voice squeaked out.
The tiger looked in my direction and I shook in fear as it approached.
"There there my dear, nothing will get you. I'm here now, do not fear." A melodic voice chorused around me. "Climb onto my back, and rest, i shall protect you."
Doing as she said, I gently climbed onto the tiger's back and rested my head on her neck. Colors flew by and before I knew it, we were in a black meadow. Rain of red fell from the skies. Climbing down from her back, I danced in the bloody rain while laughing joyously.
"It is time to go now; I am always here whenever you need me." The melodic voice sounded again. I nodded before closing my eyes and beginning a new dream.

I awoke sometime later in a small room only to look around curiously. Where was I, how did I get here? More importantly, where is here?
A door opening caused my attention to move to my right. Standing in the doorway were two men holding a baby.
“Hey little one, are you okay?” One of the two asked me.
I nodded afraid to say anything.
“I’m Matt, and this is Scotty. The baby’s name is Samantha.” The other one said.
Matt and Scotty were the same height. Matt’s jet black hair fell down over one of his crimson eyes, and Scotty had brown hair that was kept in a messy style. His amber eyes sparkled as he looked down to the bundle in his arms.
“My, don’t you have beautiful eyes?” Matt exclaimed as he noted my silver eyes.
I blushed and said, “Thank you….”
“Why don’t you tell us your name little one?” Scotty said as he approached me.
“Gracie,” I mumbled out as I looked down
My hair was still concealed by the old hat I wore. My, would they freak if when they saw it. A sigh escaped me as Matt sat down beside me.
“Let’s get you cleaned up and then we can go buy you some new clothes. How would you like to stay here and live as our daughter?” Scotty said as he rocked Samantha.
My eyes went wide and I smiled happily. “THANK YOU!!!”
I hugged them both, and Matt picked me up to take me to a small bathroom where he left me to clean up. I quickly filled the tub and bathed before getting out and wrapping up in a towel he put out for me. I left the bathroom and found Matt in what looked to be a kitchen.
“Hey sweetheart, let me get you a shirt to wear while your clothes dry.” He said as he picked me up.
A smile crossed my face as he quickly dressed me and then fed me. From there, he noticed that I was yawning.
”Off to bed with you,” He said as he picked me up and put me in the room I was in earlier.
“Night sweetheart, sleep tight.” Matt whispered after tucking me in and giving me a hug and kiss.
“Night uncle Matty. “I whispered as he left the room.
