01 - Scene

No, no, don't make me, please
MOTHER!
Mother, are you asleep?
Mother, are you asleep?
Hm, Tigra? Oh, Tigra, did you have another bad dream? It's alright love, I'm right here
It was the same dream again, every day
Mother, is it wrong to feel the way I do?
About the time of leaving? Of course not, in fact, I would be if you didn't feel some apprehension
It's a very big world out there, there is a lot to be frightened of
There actually is?
You'd be surprised, the time of leaving is a very big step in the life, a time when you and your brothers and sister will finally strike out on your own, with no one to protect you, and no one to take care of you, only the very foolish feel nothing
Oh, mother, I don't think I can do it, I want to stay with you always
You may feel that way now my little white tiger, but you are still young, when the time comes, you will feel differently, it is always the same
Really? Even you?
That was a long time ago, many winters ago, and yes, even your mother
But-
Come well, Tigra, you are no longer come to be cuddled, you're growing up into a tiger, and as a tiger you will face that new life with courage and strength
Yes, father
Your mother and I have taught you the ways of the wild, how to hunt, how to track, how to stalk, and most importantly, how to survive, that white coat of yours will be a great disadvantage to you, for you will not be able to stalk your prey as effectively as the rest of our kind, you will also not be able to hide in the time of danger, but these must be overcome by you if you are to be a survivor, and you cannot be a survivor if you claim to your mother, be brave my son! Do not shame us
It will be alright, you will see
It's not fair, it's just not fair
Come children, it's time to prepare for the hunt
Oh, just a few more minutes mother
Now, Jasco
Well, what's on the menu today? Deer? Elk?
I'd like an elephant
No Dana, no elephant today, how about something a little less ambitious?
Haha, I'd like elk, we haven't had elk in a long time
It hasn't been that long, I'd rather have fawn
That's all you ever want
So? I like it
You wouldn't like it so much if you were the one who had to hunt it
I have do hunted it
(noise)
