"George! OF COURSE, that's someone in trouble!" Rabbits only screamed when they thought they were absolutely scared out of their minds. Or when they thought they were about to die. A doe rushed down one of the hills surrounding the marsh. "A BEAR!" She called. "EVERYONE INTO THE BURROWS!" Sprout was certain everyone had heard the doe. "George, quick!" She yelped, jumping into the closest burrow.
George didn’t know what to do. Should he help? Should he not? “I don’t know what to do!” He called out
George said “ I could!”
"Quickly! Just get in!" She pulled him in. Everyone was hiding in the burrows. A bear came charging down the same hill the doe had come from. The doe was with Sprout and George. "It killed Murky." She doe whimpered. Sprout crouched low and remained motionless, just peeking her head out of the burrow so she could watch the bear. Why would it be hunting rabbits?
“But I want to help!” He told her, trying to get free.
Sprout ran out of the burrow and beside Ludewig. "I'll come."
"Lude, are you sure it will pull him down?" The bear was slow and very unsteady. He was small and starving, Sprout could see his rib cage. His eyes had a wild and crazed look. "Something is wrong with it. Why would it attack rabbits?" Sprout asked.
