8/30/11

Leila pranced around, toes touching meadow until she could smell animal on the air before her. There, hundreds of feet ahead, was a herd of cows. Grazing. Their jaw muscles moving. The rise an fall of their sides.
Leila was stalking them.
With a flash of stripes she had run, leapt, and sunk her claws into a small, lean, specimen.
In the space of an hour she had pounced, devoured, and started back towards Adrian.

Arian stepped back and looked at her, "Really?"
She blinked.
"I won't get you breakfast if you don't move" He said, hoping her stance would weaken enough for her to sneak past.
She let out a low rumbling amused roar. She was a tiger. Nobody but a tiger needs to get food for a tiger, they are very capable creatures. Silly humans, always thinking they are the best at everything. Leila gave him a diminishing look and pranced off towards the next villiage, with every intention of stealing a nice cow or like-sized beast.

Adrian and Leila continued down the road until they reached a large brick building. Very displeased, Leila let out a rumble before she sat down square in front of the door.
"I won't take long, I promise" Adrian said, attempting to sneak past her and through the door. However, the downside of having a tiger for a best friend is that they weigh hundreds of pounds, and are quite capable of taking up an entire doorway.
His attempts were unsuccessful.

Adrian stared at Leila, "Do you realize how demanding you are? Always needing attention...". He continued to mutter as he wandered around the room in search of clothes, stopping here and there to stroke her head. "Now let's go apologize to everyone for the wake up call" he said after he was dressed.
He wandered down the stairs and outside into the garden, Leila following gracefully behind him. Once outside she could smell all the little critters in the garden, and the family dog that she was specifically not allowed to eat. Crouching low, she slunk through the vegetables until a large unsuspecting rabbit was in sight. She pounced, there was a flash of claws, and two seconds later the rabbit had disappeared down her throat.
A good morning snack.
"That better not have been a dog" Adrian called to her. He was almost at the gate of the garden, so she quickly bound over to him and sprang out the gate before it had a chance to close. "Quite energetic this morning" Adrian said, looking at her as she trotted around, her head held high.

Leila woke up, uncurled, and stretched her claws. She looked down at them and admired their strong shiny appearance. If the situation arose, those claws could slice through anything. Nothing could hurt her. She then looked over at the human next to her. Funny creatures, she thought, they don't even have sharp teeth. Either way, she was very fond of this human, for she had known him all her life. His name was Adrian, and he had chosen her years ago.
Not wanting to be awake without company, Leila padded nearer to his bed and placed a large paw flat on his face. Adrian lazily stirred and removed the paw, attempting to turn away for a few more minutes of sleep. This did not suit Leila. She placed her nose right next to his head and let out a quiet roar.
Adrian sprang upright, and glared at her. "What was that for?" he exclaimed. "You may have not only woken me, but everyone in the town."
She responded with a sheepish look.

Hello

My name is Kate. I like to write. I made this blog so that I could write an ongoing story one tidbit at a time. Enjoy.
