*"We're dying with every step we take,we're dying with every breath we take"
~~~
Hiding in the deepest,darkest corner of the den, eyes wide as I watch the scene play out in front of me, I shiver in fear.
Mom,her oldest daughter from a past litter,my brothers,and sisters,are all wiggling around in a tight black net.
The humans didn't catch me though,they haven't seen me.
Two teen humans, and a middle aged man were standing over my family while they writhed around trying to get out. The guys were wearing clothes that resembled the forest,and carrying strange shaped sticks.
"How dare these evil creatures wear something similar to my home!" My younger self thought.
"SICK ''EM!" The older man laughed "but only the big 'uns! We can have some fun with the little ones!".
The teens raised their odd sticks and jabbed my mom and her old kit causing them to yelp and thrash more.
The teens laughed and pulled a trigger on the odd sticks creating a loud "BANG!". My mom went limp and they repeated it with her older kit.
My sensitive ears were ringing and I couldn't hear. They proceeded to pick up my sisters and brothers,one sibling each,and held them by the tails. One man began to spin my brother, and he began to be screeching in agony as the bones in his tail snapped. The others stomped on, or slammed my sisters into trees. I couldn't bear to loom any longer,I felt so helpless. So I averted my eyes and kept quiet.

I blink my eyes open as they adjust to the night and shake the memories away. I stand up and pad over to my den,away from the vulnerable clearing to the entrance to my den. I lay down and just stare into the dark coppice,feeling nothing. It's the worst feeling.worse than sadness it pain.
Is this life?Am I alive?
Unfortunately it is,and I am.
Stupid and arrogant creatures walk this planet.I sigh and look up at the bright specks of light dotting the night sky.
Crunch,crunch,crunch.
I hear something.
Probably another stupid mangy mutt again. Or perhaps a cat,but they are smarter than dogs so they wouldn't be crunching dead leaves. I sigh and waddle out of the den. I stalk over to the source of the noise.
I come into the woods and what I see is not what I expected...
