Didn’t seem like he was going to catch up to that fox anytime soon. By the time the animal disappeared out of sight, he was already out of breath with palms rested on quaking knees. So much for wanting to pet them. Now what was he going to do? The more he looked around, the longer he realized just how deep he’d followed the cute creature.
No worries. No problems. Just put on your thinking cap! Maybe back tracking in a straight line would get him back to the roads. But would he make it before nightfall...?
Could he make it before nightfall at all? What if foxes weren’t the only animals wandering around these odd groves. What if there were bears. Or vengeful spirits. Or worse... Vengeful bear spirits. So much for that thinking cap; all his mind is able to do is entertain a never ending bag-full of frightening scenarios that haven’t even happened yet.
It’s no wonder the instant he hears footsteps approaching close by that he drops down to the ground with a cowardly scream.
“ PLEASE DON’T EAT ME! PLUMBERS DON’T TASTE-A VERY GOOD! ”
