Something startles Larry awake, and he blinks his eyes open, jerking his head upright. The movement reminds him poignantly of his wounds and he whimpers in the dark. Oh I hurt... Why did you have to be so stupid and go into a fight you knew you couldn't win? He asks himself, looking around in the dark. For that matter, why am I awake anyway? Did I really hear something, or was that just a dream? He snuggles closer to Wendy, enjoying her warmth and comfort, but his mind will not let him return to sleep. He rests his head on his paws for a moment, ears perked for any sound, but the only thing that reaches him is the gentle sounds of the Soul and Wendy's sleep. Larry sighs softly, giving up on sleep for the moment he lifts his head and looks down at the little whippet. Ah, I couldn't let you get killed, you brave fool. It was worth the fight for this. Smiling, he reaches down and begins to gently lick the dried blood from her velvety fur.
