Freya's Feline Fortress (or the Lair for short)
Created | Updated Jan 28, 2002
The door squeaks on rusty hinges as you step hesitantly into the Lair. The musky smell of cats hangs in the air and the shadows stir restlessly.
Hello?
A pair of yellow eyes catch the light and stare down at you from what must be a shelf or bookcase. They study you silently. The floorboards creak as you take a step towards it.
Oh... A kitty, hello little fellow... what are you doing in here by yourself?
I live here. And I would ask the same of you.
You step back in confusion as the bookcase steps forward into the gloomy light. The yellow eyes narrow on the odd feline face. That is the extent of the feline resemblance as the muscles on the bipedal torso flex and ripple under the Orange fur. Your eyes focus on the curved claws sliding smoothly in and out of the very human fingers. It steps towards you on padded feet and you jump noticeably.
Do I frighten you? Don't worry, humans taste horrible.
Its ears twitch in amusement and its tail flicks from side to side. It looks at you expectantly.
Run screaming from the layer chased by Freya's laughter.
What are you?
