A Lion.

Oh look, it was a lion. A big, fluffy headed lion doing big, fluffy headed lion things. Oh, and look who was running straight towards it. A big, fluffy bodied Merrick doing big, fluffy bodied Merrick things. Really... He was running right for it!

The lion barely had time to look up before the hulking purple beast was upon it. Curved talons ripped into the lions flesh and the cat squealed in both anger and pain. The cat instantly turned and swiped out at Merrick but its claws caught nothing but mane. The big brute danced backwards, a sneer on his scarred face. He was always looking for a fight and it seemed as though this big, dark maned lion was looking to give him one.
