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.
