Stand-off #richmond 19

 ‘What do we do?’ said Jim.

‘I dunno’ said James; ‘It’s like they’re organised’.

‘I suppose that if they’re not going to move then we’re going to have to push past.’

‘But they might bite. They might not have too much fear in these numbers.’

‘Well, we have to do something. We can’t stop here all night.’

Jim approached the Land Rover. All eyes were on him. There were two deer right in front of the driver’s door. They bent down and pointed their antlers in front of him.

‘If those deer charges and impales you, you’re a goner’ said James. ‘And they don’t look like they’re moving.’

‘Well, what if you come up with me?’

‘OK’. As James joined his friend, even more deer appeared. Their eyes were glowing in the night. They started to close in on them.

‘I don’t like this’ said Jim. ‘We’re going to have to either fright, fight or flight.’
