Chapter 2 - Really Happening

The next day, Tiger is back at school training. Suddenly, his teacher calls him:

"Tiger, go! It's time for you to fight."

Tiger freezes. "What? That wasn't a dream?"

This time, Leon really appears in the stadium. The crowd cheers loudly: "Leon! Leon!"

Leon strikes Tiger hard, knocking him down. Suddenly, When Leon's punch slammed Tiger into the stadium floor, the sound echoed like a crack of thunder.

For a second, Tiger couldn't breathe.

The world blurred.

He tasted blood.

"This… is real," he thought. "That dream wasn't just a dream."

The crowd that once shouted Leon's name now watched silently.

Leon stepped closer. "

Tiger tried to stand. His legs trembled.

Then—

Dark blue light flickered in his vision.

Not anger.

Not rage.

Something deeper.

Fear.

But beneath that fear, something inside him responded.

His eyes shifted.

The energy wasn't exploding outward violently — it was stabilizing him. Sharpening him.

"This… isn't just power," Tiger realized.

"It's protecting me." Tiger's eyes turn completely white, just like in his dream. The audience gasps in shock:

"How did his eyes turn white?"

Leon stares at Tiger. He can sense that Tiger's power and speed have increased far beyond before. The battle heats up—Tiger attacks relentlessly, but Leon defends every strike. Then Leon lands a powerful blow that slams Tiger's head into the stadium floor.

Tiger's eyes suddenly shift again—this time to dark glowing blue, brighter and fiercer than before. Tiger realizes:

"This… this must be my second form."

The entire crowd is stunned, even Leon. With this new power, Tiger overwhelms Leon and defeats him.

But right after Leon's defeat, the stadium roars again.

"Tigor! Tigor! Tigor!"

Tigor enters in full style. Tiger's eyes return to normal blue. The battle begins fiercely. Tigor smashes Tiger with such strength that part of the stadium's barrier breaks. Tiger is badly injured.

Suddenly, Tiger's white eyes return. The audience is shocked again. But even so, Tigor continues hitting him mercilessly. Then, something even stranger happens—Tiger's blue glowing eyes return again, despite his body being near collapse.

The crowd shouts: "Stop the fight, or Tiger will die!"

But Tiger's teacher refuses. "No. Let it continue. Even if he suffers injuries, he's the first one to ever defeat Leon. I must see how far Tiger can stand against Tigor."

Just when it seems Tiger can't take more, his eyes transform into something new—half white, half blue. His 3rd eye form. With this power, Tiger strikes back with incredible force, and finally defeats Tigor.

The entire stadium is silent in shock. No one had ever beaten Leon, and Tigor was even stronger. Yet Tiger had defeated both.

On his way home, his teacher stops him.

"Tiger… this is the first time someone has defeated both Leon and Tigor. Many stronger fighters have tried before, but none could even touch Leon. Yet you… you beat them both. I never thought I'd see it. And your eyes… when Tigor struck you, they changed again. What was that?"

Tiger replies: "Yes, sir. I sensed it myself. My eyes changed from blue to half blue and half white. Maybe… it's my third form."

The teacher nods seriously. "Keep training, Tiger. Don't stop until you fully master it."

Tiger bows. "Yes, sir. I'll keep going. Now, I should head home."

As Tiger walks away, his teacher thinks to himself:

"Leon was powerful… but Tigor was even stronger. And yet Tiger defeated them both. How…? What kind of power lies inside him?"
