The Bear

He remembered the advice he'd been given: stand still if a bear approaches you.
Yes, but it was approaching at great speed.
He stood absolutely still as the beast bounded over the field towards him. It got closer and closer until he could smell its breath and look right into its eyes.
It was too close now for him to make a run for it.
He peed himself and closed his eyes, expecting to be mauled to death.
It felt like he'd been hit by a train. He opened his eyes and looked around him.
The bear was heading down towards  the village, the pie factory its likely destination.
