Foreign Feelings

Chapter One

The leopard who had stepped off of the plane let out a sigh of relief. He never had cared for flying, but he felt it was the best way to get to where he needed to be.

"Finally here Leon." He said as he walked through the bustling airport. "Ireland, at long last. And in Dublin no less."

He picked up his red suitcase, which was packed full to the brim with belongings that he had brought along. It was quite hefty, but he was able to use the wheels and handle attached to roll it.

After buying a coffee with the euros he had received when trading in his US Dollars, Leon stepped outside of the airport, into the light of the setting sun. He adjusted his cap and zipped up his jacket; it was a bit chillier than it was in his home state of Texas, but he'd be able to get used to it. He took a sip from his coffee and was eventually able to get a ride in a taxi.

Leon sat down with a deep breath. He looked around the hotel room he had paid for. The bedroom section had one bed, with silk sheets the color of cream. It also had a single lamp nearby on a bedside table. On said table was a remote to a tv, which was currently hinged to the wall.

There was a kitchen, with a microwave oven and a fridge, along with a sink and a stove. Everything necessary, but not too much.

Of course, there was the bathroom as well, where Leon took the his first shower since he had left home.

After his shower, Leon put on his nightwear, and laid on his bed.

"I'll just look around a bit tomorrow," he said. "Maybe talk to some of the residents, find somewhere to eat." He closed his eyes, and eventually fell into a deep sleep.
