I crash through the thick jungle foliage with Belatrix safely in my arms, thorns rip my arms and hidden roots threaten to trip me up at any moment. For a second I thought I lost my pursuers but then I hear the cracking of branches and the angry shouting just behind me. Got to lose them... But where... I look for a tree to climb but their all too tall and there is no time! I can't even set a trap to thin the herd a bit! Then I see something.... A hollow hiding space in the bottom of a massive tree! I hope we fit as I dive for shelter, seconds later six pairs of furious feet come stomping by! I notice the massive feet of the giant...I can hear his ragged breath gasping for air. They move off further into the jungle. I tuck my cub safely away.... now let's see how I do with the element of surprise as I crawl out of the hiding space, ready to strike!
