After licking the last bone clean and tossing it into the submerged pile of remains, Zollamairi stood. Licking her paws clean of the blood from her meal, she could not help but to feel unsatisfied. Humans rarely provided an exciting or remotely challenging hunt, and she stretched her muscles which we sore from under-use. She craved something... challenging. Perhaps not even to eat, but something to get the blood flowing through her veins. There were a variety of deer native to the area which may make for the fine chase, but she wasn't hungry and deer never did well with the whole catch-and-release method.
"Perhaps,'" Iri suggested, a playful edge in her voice, "We may go play with the tiny humans."
"You merely wish to eat the tiny humans," Lama pointed out, sounding disproving, and Iri giggled madly.
"I must agree with Iri," Zolla said, "Perhaps not with eating the tiny humans, but she does have a point in that they would provide us some entertainment."
In agreement now, Zollamairi traveled to the entrance of her cave and took in a deep breath, relishing the scent of the forest and fresh air before bounding off through the woods. The time it took her to reach her destination was brief and as she neared it, Zollamairi shifted her form, turning into an average looking dog with long reddish-brown fur. There was a small human dwelling along the edge of the woods which housed two adults (male and female) as well as five children; a boy age 13, a girl age 10, two identical girls both 8 and one tiny boy who was only 5. As Zollamairi walked into the yard and began barking all of the small humans came running out the front door of the house, laughing and cheering about how "The puppy is back! The puppy is back!"
Though normally she despised humans, Zollamairi could not deny how nice it was to have her belly rubbed and her ears scratched, nor how tasty some of the food these small humans presented to her was. Eventually, when they grew large, she had every intention of devouring the entire household and fantasized about the looks on their faces when their "puppy" turned against them. However, in the meantime, she would take advantage of these human's trusting nature and use them as a source of entertainment.
