James swallowed and knew he had little time to make his plans before the creature found them. He knew he could not – would not – be able to escape, as his limbs shook and refused to support his weight.

However, the cub might still survive the encounter. James reached out and pushed the cub towards cover, hoping the animal would remember his training and freeze.

James wondered if he could make himself more attractive to any predator before the realisation hit that he was covered in blood. He doubted he needed a bigger advertisement that he was available as a meal.

Sorry, the prompt made me do it. I'm sure James will be OK, if not 100% healthy, prompts willing

Sorry, but it was the prompt.

*nods* The cub and Lester are both protective of each other.

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

Eeek! But is it definitely a monster or is there still a tiny, tiny, miniscule chance it might be Abby or some veggiesaurus? Very tense!

Monster bad, veggiesaurus better, Abby best ;) I think what it turns out to be depends on the prompt *eyes next week's prompt worriedly* ;)

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

Argh, we still don't know who/what it is! But yay for protective papa Lester!

Sorry, but no we don't yet. Lester has to be, he's attached to the little cub.

Thanks for reading.

Lester is hoping it isn't going to be meep, but he still has to be prepared for it.

Thanks for looking at it for me and for reading.

Eek! That last line really packs a punch!

Sorry, James is being a realist. Glad you liked the last line ;)

Thanks for reading.

Yikes! That's the kind of sign nobody wants.

Great use of the prompt.

*nods* James would really prefe not to have that sign.

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

Meep! I do hope he's mistaken and it's the cavalry, not a predator!

Sorry for the meep. James, for once, agrees with you and hopes that he is wrong ;)

Thanks for reading.

I'm reading these all out of order - which is clearly very wrong! But do love the way you've incorporated the prompt.

From: [identity profile] knitekat.livejournal.com
Mmm, that possibly doesn't matter as most aren't in order (except the last few).

Glad you liked the drabble, it took a while to think it up.

Thanks for reading.

Sorry, but I blame the prompt ;)
