With dust in your eyes you blindly grope for the branch you glimpsed. Your fingers touch the
tip of the branch but as you try to grasp it, the branch skitters away from your hand as your panicked body
involuntarily slaps it. Disoriented from the noise and terror you quicky flail along the ground trying to find it
again.
As your hands move from side to side along the ground your chest starts to tighten as you remain unable
to find the branch. Starting to panic, you try to remember which way your terrified hand slapped the branch. As
you continue to blindly sweep the ground your breaths come in ragged gasps as your panic starts to overwhelm you. Unwilling
to stop searching you flail even more wildly along the ground. Rocks cut your palms and are immediately caked with dust.
You lose all sensation as abrasions and scratches cover your hands.
As your body gives up the fight you manage to strike the ground in one last meaningless gesture of
frustration and terror. The WereDucks continue to circle and quack at you. Several seconds pass. Waiting
for death, it feels like forever. Like a ray of light banishing the cold dark night of your haunted dreams, you
realize your right hand did not come down onto anything that felt like dusty ground. A sliver of wood reminds you that
your crashing hand happened upon a branch. With a glimmer of hope you grab the branch.
Option 1- Afraid to lose the branch again you try to reach out and stick it into the spokes of one
of the WereHarleys
Option 2- Afraid to get too close to the WereHarleys you toss the branch in an attempt to get it in
the spokes of one of the bikes
