The sudden burst of wind deforms the temporarily long strands of emerald green grass. Under a humble and proud oak tree lay a sheep, peaceful and at rest; entirely satisfied with its existence and at ease with its every surrounding.

The wolf ahead dashed forward at lightning pace towards the sheep, ripping and tearing the flesh and fur off the sheep. The sheep's body was now entirely deformed, and the sheep was no longer at peace.

The wolf was satisfied with his meal, continuing to feast on the still living sheep while the sheep had no option but to let this vandal tear it into a multitude of multiple separate parts: no longer a whole being, but a scattered mess of dead and useless flesh.

With no witnesses, the wolf kept the sheep alive to ensure he had a snack every day. Due to its severe injuries, the sheep could not leave its spot under the oak tree, and so each day the wolf would return and continue to slash, gnaw, claw and rip at the sheep. The sheep had no escape but to allow the wolf to do as he pleases.

One day a shepherd found the sheep, took it with him, and healed its grievous physical injuries, however the sheep will never mentally be how it was again.

The wolf continued to feast on other sheep and was never captured. It still roams free to this day, suffering no consequences, whilst the sheep is still far from recovering.
