Jeff witnesses a darker side of the Rabs' world.
(Sorry for the brevity of today's post. I decided that the original, longer version was unnecessarily graphic.)

Chapter 17 -- Attack __________________________________
Jeff watched with shock, then anguish as a pack of gaunt wolves burst out of the trees. They quickly surrounded three Rabs who'd been playing tag near the treeline. The Rabs scattered, trying frantically to escape, but it was far too late. Loud screams marked their bloody and fatal capture.
"Jeff! Hurry!" Sky shouted. The door was almost closed.
The fields were already empty of living Rabs. Squabbling over the remains of their meal, only the Dire Wolves were left. That's what they had to be: even the smallest of the attackers was more than twice the size of any wolf that Jeff had ever seen before. One of them, pushed away from its dinner by an even larger pack member, looked up and snarled, blood drooling from its jaws, then started toward him.
