back to reality. He rose to his feet. "Amber, what's wrong?" he asked.

"It's Man," cried Amber.

"Man?" asked Bambi. His eyes widened. Suddenly, a deafening roar was heard.

"Run!" screamed Amber. She pushed Bambi, and he fell over.

The three fawns ran, and several roars were heard behind them.

The roars reached the Great Prince.

"Bambi!" The Great Prince said, in horror. He raced towards the meadow, and the roars from the guns got louder.

The Great Prince, at last, reached the meadow. He gasped.

Bambi and the girls were running, crying out for help. Suddenly, there was a gunshot, a thud, and Amber tripped to the ground with a scream of pain.

Cassie cried out in terror and ran up to the Great Prince. Bambi was with her.

"You're going to be okay," started the Great Prince, and another gunshot beat upon their ears.

The Great Prince thrust Cassie and Bambi behind him, then galloped out into the meadow. He grabbed Amber and thrust her onto his back, then raced back to the cover of the forest.

"Run," he shouted at Bambi and Cassie. The fawns raced off into the forest, as a final gunshot was heard.

Silence.
