Red like the sunset. Fast like the breeze. The fox chased the rabbit across the meadow. As it did so, it’s leg was crushed in a rusty old bear trap. The fox collapsed from the sudden pain. The smell of blood had the rabbit venture back into the meadow. A hound had been following the rabbit. A boy had been following the hound. When he laid eyes on the broken carcass, he thought it was dead. When he found it wasn’t, the boy rescued it instead of putting it out of its misery. He took care of him forever more.
