All Welcome

There! The tiny brown creature was quick, darting ahead through the undergrowth like a little bullet, but Brunhilde's keen eye had not missed it. Throwing caution to the win, she shifted all of her weight forward and began tearing after the little morsel, her brain completely enveloped by hunger and the neeed to eat. Her paws thundered against the ground with might and crushed everything in their path as she relentlessly tailed the rabbit, tongue lolling out and murky brown eyes hungrily wide with anticipation, firmly trained on the future meal before her and nothing else.

It was not the first prey animal she'd seen since beginning her travels, but the other's had managed to escape her grasp, leaving her with a terribly empty stomach and fueling the woman to do whatever was neccesary in order to secure this meal. Of course, rabbit's weren't really her favorite, given how much more nimble and speedy they were. Even now, the delicate creature before her was performing confusing zig zags all over the place, gracefully dodging trees and almost leading the less agile brute to smack her head into one numerous times. However, beggers could not be choosers, so she figured it'd be good enough. Regardless of personal preference or challenge, this rabbit would be her's.

Already starting to wear down, she panted with exhaustion as she chased the thing, crashing all the way through The Sentinels like a crazed beast (which she was, in a sense). Much to her dismay, the creature was already starting to get ahead of her by leaps and bounds, becoming smaller and smaller and harder to keep track of... but not all hope was lost! In it's blind panic, the creature had to completely stop itself and change direction in order to keep from hitting a tree, allowing Brunhilde to get well within lunging distance. True, it easily picked up just as much speed in it's new direction, but the woman was now closer! She could practically feel the hair's of it's cottontail brushing her nose! Just... a little... more...

So focused was she on the hunt, she hardly noticed the fallen seqouia blocking both of their paths. No, it wasn't made obvious to her until it was right upon them; until her prey suddenly dissapeared into the ground, quickly diving throw a gap beneath the fallen giant. Determined to not lose the creature, she put no thought into her plan of action as she threw herself to the ground and aggresively pushed through the gap, aiming to follow the creature's every move no matter what it took. She only just got to snap at its little paw before watching it bound away, unharmed by the obstacle it had to pass under and quickly disapearing into the thicket, whereas Brunhilde... was stuck. It took her a few grunts and angry wiggles to realize her body wasn't buding an inch. Of course, the severity of her situation hadn't quite set in yet, as she was too busy being disapointed by the sight of her food getting away. She gave one final huff and exhaustion and indignation before dropping her head to the ground, her ears pinning back and adreleline leaking from her tired body. It seemed she would not be eating today...

After a few moments of laying there, hating her life, she then realized the situation.

The brute's panting ceased at once and her eyes went wide, fear gripping hold of her. No... She awkwardly lifted her back end up and gave a few testing tugs, checking to see just how well she was lodged. No...! She pushed off with her front legs and kept her head pressed to the ground, groaning with effort as she fruitlessly tried to push herself back out of the space. Nope. Nothing. She couldn't move, and the tree didn't even budge, so she realized with a sickening sense of dread that moving the tree wasn't an option. Unwilling to accept defeat, she still tried several more times to move herself out, attempting all different kinds of combinations of pushing, positioning, wriggling, and pullling, but nothing she did would work. it took her a few panic filled minutes to realize her only hope of escape was digging herself out... but with her awkward positioning, it would take hours...

Great. Just great.
