I ended up in my small hole. It had been about half an hour, 1:31 am. I looked around. Something was different. It was warm. Someone had been there, or was still here. I panicked. How did someone find my hole? Was it a racoon? Wild dog? Runaway child? I stared at my torn-up blanket. Something small was under it. I lifted it up, getting ready to hit anything dangerous. It was only a small puppy. It was skinny, starving. I gently picked it up. I stroked it's fur. It was so soft... It was a small German Shepard. It opened an eye. It was frightening. I could help it, but it would be difficult. I'd have to rob a couple of banks to get money for more food. But it would work. WHAM! My food cans started to get knocked over. The dog disappeared. It was a distraction. I saw a strange orb surrounding me. The darkness had come back.
