James woke, groaning softly, his whole body aching as he shivered. He tensed at a low growl before relaxing as he felt the cub's small, quivering body press against him and realised it was the cub he could hear.

It took a moment before James realised the cub had to be growling at something and, whatever it was, he was in no state to fight or flee from it.

James heard the rustling of vegetation and could only hope it was from a friend, but couldn't help fear that, the way his day was going, it would be a foe.

I do hope it's Abby!

That had better be Abby! Very tense.

Oh, poor little cub, growling through the fear!
And hopes that it's a friend!

Uh oh.

Aww, the cub is still being brave and the suspense is building. I do hope that's Abby...

Excellent drabble!

I love the contrast of that really sweet image of the cub and Lester, paired with the tension of not knowing what's coming.

A really intense nail-biter of a drabble!
