Roy slapped a hand over his mouth, his face turning green. He ran out of the room, leaving Chris alone to deal with the mess.
Blood and entrails were strewn across the rug, and the stench made her nose wrinkle. Crossing the room, Chris threw open the window, allowing fresh air in to clear the room at least a little. Turning back around, she spotted the murderer.
She sat on the vanity, a mirror reflecting the glorious tri-coloring that had given her the name of 'Iris'. She washed her paw and then using the same to scrub her face.
"You," Chris said, "don't have any idea how lucky you are, do you?"
Iris raised her head, making an inquisitive, chirping sound.
"You're very good at your job," Chris went on, pointing out the remains of the mouse, "but do you have to play with your prey after you catch it?"
Blinking at her once, Iris resumed her washing, and Chris knew she'd been dismissed aside from cleaning up the mess the little cat had left behind.
