Warnings: Firearm, break-in, and jumping out of the window with a dog (he’s fine)
You were sound asleep when the lock on your bedroom window clicked open.
Your dog, Luther, growled lowly from the corner of your bed, teeth bared and hackles raised.
You startled awake, clutching your chest and staring at the protective German Shepherd. Your gazed moved past him and toward the massive figure stepping through your window.
You jumped up, not even fully having enough time to look at the man, or potentially creature. You grabbed your firearm from your bedside table and pointed it at the man-creature, who was now walking towards you.
His voice was low and gruff when he spoke, saying, “I believe you have something that belongs to me, love.” He said, gesturing towards the dog who had stopped growling upon hearing the man’s voice.
You blinked in surprise before shaking your head. “You can’t have my dog! He’s mine, I got him two weeks ago at the shelter!”
The man grabbed the pendant on collar around Luther’s neck and scoffed. “Luther? You couldn’t have picked a better name for him?”
Luther was now sprawled out on your bed, tail wagging and tongue lolling out of the side of his mouth happily.
“Luther, come.” But Luther didn’t listen to your command, staying right beside this, clearly British, stranger who had just walked into your home uninvited.
“His name isn’t Luther, it’s Riley. He’s a trained military guard dog, and he’s mine.”
You blinked at the man, dumb founded. Your dog? A trained military dog? That was impossible! Luther was a pampered pup who got cranky if he didn’t get two cookies before bed. The dog growled at his own reflection for gods sake! There was no way he could be a highly trained piece of military equipment!
“I need proof that my dog was your dog, and that you didn’t just break into my house because you liked the look of my dog.” You said as you reached your arm out to turn on the light, your other hand still pointing your gun at the stranger. As the light filled the room, you saw the skull mask that the man wore and you took a step back.
“Riley,” The man barked, “angehen!”
Riley immediately tackled you onto the bed, sending your gun flying. He laid himself across your body, pinning you under the weight of his 110 pound body.
“Okay!” You wheezed out, lungs being slightly crushed by Luth-Riley’s weight. “I believe you! Just get him off of me!”
The man chuckled before ordering, “Riley, komm zu mir.”
Riley hopped off of your chest and onto the floor with a thud before moving towards the mysterious man before you.
“Ghost!” A man yelled from outside your window, “Are ya comin? We’ve gotta go!”
Ghost turned his head towards the window before turning back to you. “Sorry about your dog, miss.” He said, dropping a hundred on your dresser.
“Sorry for wh-?” You let out a scream as the man grabbed your German Shepherd under one arm and jumped out the window.
You ran to the window, expecting an utterly horrific scene, only to see no evidence that the man was ever there.
