Speedy

Yeah, I was bored last night. So I got to wondering what my hamster thinks in his little head. And this is what I came up with. (Btw, "IT" refers to me)

----

There IT was again.

That hideous monster. Not even awake for five minutes, and IT was already watching me. I froze, watching IT carefully. Was it safe to move? Was IT going to attack me? Only time would tell.

I tried to act casual, always keeping a wary eye on IT. I dug through my bedding, searching for my food cache. Stuffing some in my pouch, I slid down my tunnel.

I froze. IT had come closer. IT was near my territory. IT never learned. This was my territory, not ITs.

I watched IT for a while, and IT did not move. Feeling safer, I made my way over to my food bowl. Watching IT with extreme caution, I stuffed more food into my pouches and carried it to the big blue thing. I like the big blue thing. It lets me run to my heart's content. It's where I've taken to storing my food and eating it, so that IT doesn't get to it. IT frequently takes my food bowl away, so I have to have some supply stacked up.

Breakfast was over. IT was still watching me, a funny looking stick in its hand. IT had that funny stick a lot. Sometimes IT stuck it into my territory, where I would attack it and bite it until IT withdrew it. IT didn't seem interested in me then. IT was scribbling the funny stick on a weird white thing, glancing at me every now and again.

IT was weird.

I withdrew back into my den for some housekeeping. I noticed IT was missing a short while later. It had finally left! I was free to reign over MY territory. Scrambling back down my tunnel before IT came back, I saw the one thing I had always dreamed of: the gate was OPEN.

I could finally escape from IT.

Cautiously, I made my way over, in case IT was hiding somewhere. I stood half on the gate, sniffing the air. ITs scent was strong. I went with as much caution as I could, paw over paw, bar over bar.

I had done it. I was free, and IT was nowhere to be found.

I began to explore my new surroundings. The smooth wood, the funny stick (it didn't do much without IT around), a funny round thing, and-

I stood on the edge, staring over the edge of a massive cliff. I was amazed. I hung my head over the side, sniffing the air. I pushed with my front paws to get my head over as far as possible. The drop was breathtaking. I was terrified of it.

As I tried to retreat, my back paws slipped. My front paws gave out, and I let out a squeak as I started tumbling.

"Gotcha!" came that un-hamster roar. I landed hard on IT, on those things IT uses to grab me violently. IT lifted me up to ITs eyes, banging on my back.

"That would have been one nasty spill for you, Speedy-bug," IT roared.

I didn't understand what IT was roaring, but I did understand that I was still way too high up. I started crawling on IT to find a way down safely.

IT stuffed me back inside MY territory and closed up the gate. Defeated, I took a drink of water from the other blue thing. IT sat down near MY territory again.

IT would never learn.

In a last, halfhearted attempt to escape, I began gnawing on the bars of my territory. I knew I would never chew through them. But it was all I had.

Plus, it gets my teeth ready for the day I overthrow IT.

Yeah, random and pointless.

And yes, I call my hamster Speedy-bug.

Edit: Btw, on the dialogue, Speedy's repeating the syllables he hears, like how a dog recognises its name by the specific sound pattern. It just so happens we can understand it.
