You shake more.

And more.

And more.

And more.

You shake and shake and shake and shake and he will not let go and you keep shaking and he keeps holding on and nothing makes sense as you feel your brain bouncing around in your skull and bruising and bursting as you keep shaking and shaking and nothing happens because he will not let go and everything is terrible and you just want this horrible creature to leave you alone but this must feel like some kind of ride to him but it is not for you it is terrible and everything is bad and you shake.

And you fall over.

And Rob (the squirrel) sniffs you and laughs.

You choose to…

• …die.
