The Cat

Glowing eyes invade the darkness of the night. A majestic hunter with prey in it's sights. Slowly moving through the grass, as slient as an empty glass. A creature with a sullen expression, embraking upon a hunting session. It srikes from the shadows of the night; giving the prey little change of escape or fight. A body full of warming fur and makes the sound of a meow or pur. Pointy ears, thin legs and sharp claws; extending out from padded paws. This cretaure wears a sumptuous looking coat always shiney and clean; walking with graceful posture like that of a ballroom scene. It's younger form more playful and small, but soon will grow just as cunning and tall. Masquerading as innocent family pets and balls of fur; hiding the true heart of a loin waiting to roar. Some choose to live with families in thier home; well others like the nomadic people enjoy to roam. Hedonistic in nature like Lord Henry from the story of Dorian grey, the cat hate's having it's pleasurable lifestyle taken away. Roaming around night and day...... this creature of beauty is always on the hunt; for it's next prey....
