She stood in a long line of eager people, cupping her thermos of hot chocolate with a grin on her face. The quite red haired female had been outside the book store since it's official close time of six pm, she was eagerly awaiting the special midnight opening for a new release. It had been worth it, there had only been a few people there before her and as she tilted her head to peek back Silvia noticed the long, long line that had now formed.<br/><br/>In the distance she could just spy Big Ben and the large countdown display declaring just ten minutes to go! Blowing casually on the hot beverage Silvia took a sip as all over London voices began to shout.<strong>10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1!!!</strong>Boom! Bang! Fireworks exploded overhead as people hugged and kissed around her, Silvia however was noticeably alone but the red haired woman didn't let it bother her instead she kept her beady eyes on the door of the book shop and as the first fireworks of the New Year faded, the doors opened.<br/><br/>Instantly there was a swell in the line, "Suger!"  She exclaimed as hot liquid spilled onto her top, luckily she was wearing enough layers to not feel a burn. Silvia turned about to give the pusher a piece of her mind when black dots covered her vision. The red haired swayed alarmingly and a mumbled voice call "Hey are you OK...." Then Silvia blacked out. She didn't even remember hitting the floor. At first there was darkness and then into that darkness came a ball, growing bigger and bigger. The rational part of Silvia's mind cried out<em>I can't be dead! I need the new Harry Potter!</em>the ball of light however turned out to be a tiger... However its fur was every colour and pattern of all living tigers, it's great mouth opened and a roar burst forth that screamed<em>HELP!</em><br/><br/>Silvia's mind was bombarded with images and then finally grew calm as a smaller oddly greyish white tiger stalked towards her offering a charm in its mouth. The woman reached out and as she did so the red head awoke with a start as screams echoed all around her. Silvia sat up, her mind confused, she remembered little of what just happened. People were running all around her and as she looks around confused she suddenly saw why. Stalking towards her, bold as brass was a large, extremely large tiger. Silvia sat frozen to the spot as it approaches her and then to add to the bizarreness of her night it lay down across her feet and stared up at her.
