The Wolf With No Fangs and The Rabbit With Fangs
Wolves are always the monster.
Rabbits are always the prey.
Not in this story, the prey is the wolf.
The monster is the rabbit.
But no one will ever believe the wolf.
The rabbit keeps biting at the wolf.
No one would notice it anyway.
The rabbit never has fangs.
Or so they thought.
The wolf never fights back.
The rabbit leaves deeper marks each bite.
The ache is never seen.
Today the wolf struck back at the rabbit.
That will not end well.

*monster: everyone growls to the wolf with blind eyes*
*victim: everyone whispers to the rabbit*
