Near the edge of a forest sat a very well disguised trap. Too small to catch anything noteworthy, but small enough to catch a small morsel. Tied to the small cage of twigs was a small strand of twine that led all the way back to a bush maybe 8 feet from the cage. A figure was in the bush, hunched and waiting, it's smell seemingly gone or disguised at the moment. This scene had been set for several hours, and the would be hunters trap had yet to be fruitful.

Soon, a small hare began to wander into the scene. It even began to wander close to the cage! It spent several moments sniffing the cage and inspecting it. It then spotted t\a carrot just underneath the trap. It carefully approached it, sniffed the orange treat, then began to nibble on it. Just after, the twine tightened and the trap sprung on the rabbit. It was now squeaking inside its new prison.

The figure leaped up from the bush. "YES!!!" The young man exclaimed. HE then ran over to the cage. He had a mess of brown hair and five o'clock shadow. He was wearing blue loose clothing with leather and steel armor over his chest. He ran and slid right next to the cage. "4 hours! After 4 hours of waiting, I finally get to eat!"

He reached into the cage and pulled out the rabbit by it back tuft. He held it aloft as he pulled out a knife. He then raised the knife and looked at the rabbit. Though.....the knife never came down. The rabbit just kept staring at him, and he at it. After almost two solid minutes like this, the man turned his head skyward and screamed "DAMN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" He then sheathed the knife and dropped the rabbit and it scampered away.

"I'm so pathetic, I can't even kill a defenseless rabbit. Some monster I am." Felix sighed. He then looked to the cage. "Well, at least I still have the carrot." Felix grabbed the carrot and was about to stick it into his mouth, but he saw something out of the corner of his eye. It was the rabbit. It was staring at the carrot. "Oh, no. This is my carrot. You should be more grateful I spared you, now you expect to just hand over my last bit of food, not a chance." He went back to putting it into his mouth, when the rabbit released another small whiny noise. Felix glared daggers at the rabbit. Fidgeted for a moment, then handed it the carrot. It began to eat it vigorously.

Felix's stomach began to growl. He hadn't eaten in two days and the carrot was lucky find at that. He had no hunting or tracking skills and had been relying on the kindness of strangers to get by. Feeling defeated, Felix stood up and began walking the dozen feet or so back to the road. Right when he reached it, he turned around and flopped down onto his back, his upper half on the road. He was tired. "Good as place as any to nap." He closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.
