Without You~Tiger and Dream

There was Dream, sitting by the Thunderpath, which was swarming with monsters.

''"Dream! Come here!" I called. Dream turned to look at me. Her green eyes were dark and full of regret.''

"Tiger," she said, "I never would have had a mate like you if I stayed at home. We've had such fun together."

''"We still can!" I replied, "Please Dream, come back!"''

''Dream shook her head. "No. I'm so sorry my love. I can't live without our kits. I feel like my heart has been clawed into tiny little pieces. Only one piece remains, you are not gone yet."''

'''I can't win, I can't reign I will never win this game Without you, without you I am lost, I am vain, I will never be the same Without you, without you '"Dream!" I wailed, "Dream, I can't live without you! Please, stay with me!" My voice cracked and the last words came out as a whisper, "Please."''

''Dream stood up. A monster was coming along the Thunderpath. "I'm sorry Tiger. I must join our kits," she meowed, "Goodbye my love."''

'''I won't run, I won't fly I will never make it by Without you, without you I can't rest, I can't fight All I need is you and I, Without you, without you '''

''"NO!" I yowled, "Dream, no! Please, stay with me! We can find a new home, away from Twolegs, and start our family again! We can start a Clan! I'll do anything Dream, just please, please stay with me."''

'''Oh oh oh! You! You! You! Without... You! You! You! <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial;line-height:normal;text-align:center;">Without...you '''

''My words had no effect. Dream ran out onto the Thunderpath. She stayed still. "No, no! DREAM!" I wailed. Before I could stop myself, I ran to her.''

"Tiger, no," she said, "You must live, find another mate!"

''"No!" I cried, "Where you go, I go."''

'''<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial;line-height:normal;text-align:center;">I won't soar, I won't climb <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial;line-height:normal;text-align:center;">If you're not here, I'm paralyzed <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial;line-height:normal;text-align:center;">Without you, without you <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial;line-height:normal;text-align:center;">I can't look, I'm so blind <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial;line-height:normal;text-align:center;">I lost my heart, I lost my mind <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial;line-height:normal;text-align:center;">Without you, without you '''

''The monster came along the Thunderpath. It swerved and screeched at us. And suddenly, I went flying through the air. I felt no pain, for I had Dream. Then, I landed and everything hurt. Pain, everywhere.''

'''<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial;line-height:normal;text-align:center;">Oh oh oh! <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial;line-height:normal;text-align:center;">You!

You! You! <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Verdana,Arial;line-height:normal;text-align:center;">Without...you '''

''My eyes opened slightly. Dream lay beside me, blood trickling from her mouth. I was briefly aware of a Twoleg beside me. The images of my kits and Dream flashed before my eyes. I smiled.''

And then the darkness came and I was with them once again, forever.
