"I'm walking in a green valley where birds sing and sun dapples the undergrowth... suddenly the air is charged with intense energy ...my heart pounds as two grizzly cubs scoot by. Behind me there is a heavy thumping noise. As it crescendos, I turn, grabbing for my pistol. My mind takes in a picture of brown hair and yellow teeth, The explosion hits!"
