Evil In the Forest

The forest was usually clean of dangers, but today was different. White stag sensed a new evil in the oaks to the east. He ran to see. There was a predator there, a violator whom he had never sensed. Others were in hiding now; moles, voles, rabbits and chipmunks. Fall squirrels had stopped gathering acorns. They were in tree nests. High off the forest floor, trembling, scared into submission. White stag felt their terror, and it made him determined and upset. It was a man, worse than a hunter, a predator of the worst sort. Young girl child was lying on the ground motionless. Devil human had killed her. He was digging a grave. White stag rushed him, surprising him in the best way. The violator fled, leaving the young child behind. She opened her eyes and stared at White Stag. She asked for her mommy. I will take you home, he reassured her. He did, for he was as magical as creatures ever become. White stag was her power animal. After bringing her back to life, would taking her home be a big deal?
