Living in a Nightmare
Here I am hopeless and desperate, alone in the water. Well, not exactly alone. Black gigantic cat keeps starring at me with his creepy eyes. Its not easy for me to live in this glassy tank filled with ancient water. Every second I have to keep my eyes on that fury monster. His claws are sharper than fishing hooks.
