~*articulate what forever smoulders*~
The cat has long gone but your father is hunched over and one of his shirt sleeves is soaked with blood. He looks up at you with pure pain in his eyes. His eyes, that are looking strangely cat-like. Gasping for breath, he opens his mouth to reveal an impressive set of fangs. Shocked, you stumble backwards. Don't worry... he won't kill you. Well, not straight away. Cats like to play with their prey.
