"Crossed my mind when I crossed the bridge."
I woke without opening my eyes. I felt so dizzy and I hadn't even moved yet. I opened my eyes to see I was in no way outside. Well that's comforting… I looked down at the floor and nearly growled in irritation. It's so faaaarrrr! I sigh in my head and force myself to get up.
Pain shoots up my leg and I pick it up quickly. I look back at it to see it was wrapped in human bandages. I gave it a sniff to be sure. Yep human- he spends a lot of time around books. I looked to the floor from the bed judging the distance then jumped.
Shit.
My back leg on instinct hit the ground and I yipped falling over because of the strength and speed I pulled my foot up. I rolled myself back up and headed to the open door. I looked around to see the only direction I could go without a dead end was down. I hopped down each step until I reached the bottom.
The smell of meat drew me in. I hadn't eaten in forever! I followed my nose only to stop dead in my tracks. There on a couch was a red haired human. One eye was covered in an eye patch and the other green. The hair on the back of my neck stood up as I recognized the human smell from my bandage was his. I growled low and long.
He looked up from his book and glanced down at me then called off somewhere else. "Yuu-Chan he's awake!"
"Like I give a shit!" another human yelled back. Actually the smell of the house didn't match the red head at all.
"But he's really angry… you sure he's not a wolf?" he asked placing his brown book on a stand next to him.
Silence followed.
"Yuu-Chan do you know how dangerous he is!?" the red head panicked.
Alright if you are afraid of me then I can chase you off. I growled louder and he looked back over to me. I growled even louder. "h-hey Yuu-Chan…" I snapped at him from a distance bearing my teeth at him. "I- ima get out of here…" he said getting up and backing away to a door. I charged and snapped along my way. "Bye!" he called opening it and running out slamming it behind him. I screeched to a halt my paws slipping on the wooden floors for a moment.
I smirked to myself. I had scared of a human. With pride I walked my way over to the couch he once sat on and I climbed up taking a seat all to myself.
A human walked in the room and I looked up at him. His hair was a blue/black and long; pulled back into a ponytail.
I got back up and onto the ground prepared to stand my ground. I growled lowly and made my hair stand up. I pulled my lips up to show my teeth.
He just looked at me for a moment then glared at me. He was confident I'll give him that… I snapped and growled as loud as I could.
"Listen mutt." He nearly growled just like me. "This is my place you got a problem get out."
I paused. I growled once more to see if he would still back down. "Shut up!" he snapped back.
I stopped growling and snapping. I glared at him for a long time. Whoever backed down wasn't going to be the leader anytime soon…
He stared back at me. Standing his ground.
I wasn't going to give up.
He suddenly got down on his knees and that's when I noticed the bowl in his hands. He sat on the floor and glared me down. He hadn't backed down even if he was now lower to the ground. He put the food between us and spoke softly. Strange for the way he was before. "You going to come eat or not?"
The hair on my back slowly lowered. He was strange I'll give him that. I glanced down at the food. I was so hungry… ugh… fine… I gave in and submitted. I watched the ground as I walked over and began to take the food from the bowl.
I suddenly felt a hand on my back making me jump and snap.
I saw the flash of him pulling his hand away and the flash of red and that was all I needed to see I had crossed the boarders. He was going to be pissed.
He had looked so calm as he ate that I had decided to reach out and pet the fur I knew was soft. I saw every second of his reaction. His eyes dilated in fear and his hair stood up in defense. His head snapped up and his jaws just grabbed me.
I pulled back as quick as possible but he held on for a few seconds and it was then I relied that he was stronger than me.
He let go and he scrambled back a bit. His eyes held terror. His hair was razed and his lip pulled back with each growl. As angry as he looked his eyes showed fear. Fear of me. I stood up and anger grew inside me for a moment or two but I quelled it quickly.
I didn't want him to see me as something to fear I wanted him to see me as the actual person I was. I swallowed my anger and looked him down ignoring my wound. I wanted to show him I cared but I knew I couldn't do that if my emotions were out of whack. I had to calm down first.
By the time I did I noticed more signs of fear. His back side was lower than his shoulders his bad leg almost touching the ground and his leg closest to me was razed ready to run and escape. It was quiet a fast change between the emotions I had seen come from him. First anger and dominance then calm and contentment then fear and worry.
I kneeled down again and sighed out calming even more. I reached out slowly to him. I couldn't leave petting as a bad thing imprinted in his mind. I saw his lips rise with each inch I got closer but it wasn't from anger it was fear.
I slowly slipped my fingers between the raised fur on his neck and his mouth opened slowly and became parallel with my arm but he didn't strike. As I gently pet his fur his mouth closed and realization set in that I wouldn't hurt him.
I started to pet longer and more of a normal strength stroke. He slowly sat down a bit funny but he relaxed. He sat on his good hip and thigh and his front paw went down.
I even started to ruff up his fur and he laid down before rolling onto his side for me to pet him. I scratched his chest and even pet his belly.
He suddenly got up with a quick squirm and looked at me for a moment before walking around my couch and getting on it looking over the backrest to look at me for a moment. I sighed as his head disappeared behind the couch and I got up to go wash the blood of my hand.
As much trouble the rabbit said I would have if he was a wolf this wasn't as bad as I expected. He just went down and let me pet his belly for god's sake.
Although the bite was trouble in teaching him that humans aren't that bad and its going quickly. He's not that much trouble. Really... I thought as I used some of the extra gauze the rabbit left on my counter to wrap my hand.
