Close fight

If someone were to map my movements on some kind of schematic, they would surely realize how weird my attempts at escaping were. Because instead of just trying to get as far from the source of the problem as I could, I kept zig-zagging, turning right only to turn left and only slightly increasing the distance. 

'The most important thing is to not let them get a jump on me,' I thought, using a moment of jump when I was airborne to take a look behind me. 

Just like I thought, the monsters were hot on my tail. Even though they all looked like slightly oversized rabbits, I dared not to take them lightly. 

This kind of perception, flawed by what I knew from the earth, was my greatest flaw. The flaw that I was aware of and I actively sought to eliminate. 

In the end, those were the monsters, predators, and hunters. Not some adorable bunnies that girls could receive as Christmas presents.
