Deadly Predator Stalking

In the forest, a deadly predator was eagerly stalking its prey. Its glowing orange eyes were glued to the clueless human who had intruded upon its territory. 

This takedown would be especially easy. The fox could sense that his target's stomach was bloodied all over: the man was wounded and would soon falter. Plus, it was confident in the shrub surrounding it, rendering it invisible. 

It licked its lips as it awaited calmly. A bit more, a bit more, now! It pounced toward the soft flesh, its fangs about to sink into it with bliss. This was probably one of the greatest surprise attacks it had ever done. 

But, just as it was about to succeed, something phenomenal happened: a black round thing appeared right in front of its maw! Clang! The fox felt pain, its tongue pierced in the process.
