You're out in the wilderness. You don't remember how you got out into the nowhere, but it's been three weeks and the winter is starting to set in. Berries are getting hard to find, the rivers no longer seem to have any more fish, the temperatures are dropping. Yesterday was the first snow of the season, and the jacket you wear won't hold up with the many tears and rips within it. Desparation starts to set in as you tuck away into your makeshift hut, throwing a few more twigs on the campfire in a vain attempt to stave off the cold. You sit down, tuck your arms against yourself and shiver, absorbing what little life the fire can give you.

When you see it

Two dots in the forest, pointed right at you. At first it's just the two, but then there's four. And six. And ten.

You continue to shiver, but now out of fear. They've found you. Oh God, they've found you. You've managed to hide from them for so long but here they are. Leaves crunch under their paws, twigs crack, rocks dislodge and tumble down the gentle slope, but you can't hear it over the pounding of your own heart. You stare fixedly at the dots growing nearer with every second, knowing any single one of them could be your last. You hear breathing behind you, so you turn. There's one standing right next to you, with it's oversized eyes, radar dish ears and faux fur over its enormous head. You swallow your scream, too scared for it to even leave your throat. You turn away to see the other five have made it to you, each of them more vibrantly neon than the last. The furries have found you.

"Rar XD" says this particularly rainbow fennec. And then, you are nuzzled. It's too late. There's no hope.
