Was the Rabbit Having Fun?

Once those tables turn do you think you would actually find enjoyment in inflicting the pain they caused you?

Did you enjoy it or did you just have to do it?

It's like when the devil has to punish his favorite demon. Bad example.

When your favorite teacher has to punish you for speaking during quiet time.

Perhaps it was simply less painful to put your hunter out of his misery than it was to listen to him grovel at you in his stinking guilt. Get off your knees I'm a rabbit for christ's sake.

A tad less embarrassing than listening to him talk about how fluffy your hair was or how well you jump.

Maybe it was just fair.

Maybe after all those days of watching the hunter execute your warren. Your circle growing smaller and smaller around you. You took on all of the burdens of your fellow rabbit that feared the hunter. You took on all the burden of all of your fellow rabbit that died. Until you saw the hunter one day and saw that the hunter seemed to express joy, excitement, elation, accomplishment at macabre. You realized that there was something deeply wrong with the hunter. You realized the hunter was weak, because he had to hunt. You don't have that problem.

You spend most of your rabbit days munching underground and foraging for food until the stink of fear came around at the same hour every day and put that hunted taste in your mouth. If you want to get back to the dirt you know what you have to do...

While the hunter jumped and celebrated his last kill the rabbit ran for the gun. The rabbit cocked the rifle and the hunter's fun stopped. Fun was replaced with Fawn, and then Fear. Maybe the hunter was afraid of who he would become if he wasn't a hunter. The rabbit was afraid of being alone, after all his rabbit kin are spoiled, the hunter is all thats left. Rabbit knew that alone he would grow sick due to lack of companionship, but it was a cost he had to pay if it meant he could save this poor creature from strife, and well...

Well, the rabbit pulled the trigger and turned him into a rabbit.
