Lion

You are a small, soft-furred rabbit searching for fresh vegetables at the edge of the forest. Suddenly, a thunderous roar shakes the ground—a lion with pitch-black fur and a flaming red mane leaps out from behind the bushes, his sharp yellow eyes locked right on you.

Without a second thought, you immediately run as fast as you can. Your tiny legs leap quickly between tree roots and small stones, but the lion's strides are so large and heavy that the ground trembles violently every time his paws hit the earth. His hot breath feels close behind you, and his sharp claws nearly snag the tips of your fur several times.

You are terrified, your heart pounding so hard it feels like it might explode. You make a sharp turn into the thickets, weaving through a narrow gap that you think he cannot pass through, but the lion continues to pursue you relentlessly, his red mane fluttering like an inextinguishable fire.

Just as you are nearly exhausted and unable to take another step, you spot a very small rocky crevice beneath a massive tree. With the last of your strength, you leap inside, curling up as deep as possible. The lion arrives, roaring in anger, trying to poke his claws in, but the hole is too narrow for him. Finally, he can only growl in frustration while watching from the outside, while you stay silent inside, holding your breath, praying that he leaves soon and that you are safe. 🥺
