"Come along everyone!", the blond female human shouted. Her and everyone else left the house. I jumped on top of the old wooden table that I loved to sleep on. I laid down, and I was just about to go to sleep when I started to hear noises coming from 'The Room'.
I jumped up, and playfully ran down to the room. I entered the old, dusty room...and I saw the weirdest little creatures. They were squeaking, and running all around the floor. What were they? I walked a bit closer into the room, and one of them looked at me, and started to run towards me. I felt the need to attack. It jumped while it was running me, and then I quickly scratched it with my claws. It fell to the ground, no longer running, and no longer alive. I didnt mean to hurt it..or kill it, I just wanted to protect myself. I had never hunted, and I never wanted to again. All the other creatures ran away. I had felt awful about killing the little creatures, and I honestly didn't mean to scare the rest of them away--and now I was all alone again..time to sleep. I turned around, and started to run out of the room.
As I was running out of the room, the giant door closed on me, and I couldn't get out. I clawed at the door..I was trapped...I couldn't escape! What was I going to do. I killed a little creature, scared the rest of them away, I was trapped in the dusty, old room that smelled just ever so awful, and worst of all...I haven't had a nap today! This day couldn't get any worse. I swear, when those humans come home, if anyone of them tries to pick me up, god so help me I'll attack them. I hate being picked up, and they know it too! I was trying to figure out how I could get out of this room, I couldn't think of anything, or anyway to escape. I was panicking.
Suddenly, I heard a loud noise outside...I saw a large blue object sitting in the humans front yard. The female human came out of the the object, and began to walk up the steps, and into the house. I started meowing quite loudly. The humans would hear me, and they would help me, and let me out of this scary room, to which I was trapped in. "MEOOWWW!"
"MMMMEEEEOOOOOWWWW!!!"
The female human came into the room running, also opening the door. I ran out quickly under her feet, and escaped the room. I was free, I was finally free. I jumped onto the table, laid down, and began to take my well-deserved nap
