Running

Perseus turned around and saw this giant rabbit that was giving him the death stare. Needless to say, Perseus was intimidated. He yelled to Jack who was shaking in fear.

"Here's your next lesson, running!"

And grabbing Jack by the collar he dashed off into the forest. Perseus thought that he would be faster, but looking back, did he think that he could beat a RABBIT of all things? the creatures that are known for being fast in every world he had been in so far. And on top of that, it was giant too.

Whatever, Perseus was thinking, it was kinda stupid but but he was running as fast as his legs could carry him further into the forest which, in hindsight was really stupid.

The only thing that Perseus and Jack (who Perseus had let down to run on his own) had as their advantage was their size. Perseus spotted and an enclave of trees and dashed there with his young pupil in tow.

Perseus started churning his legs only for him to realize that he had forgotten his pupil in the distance. Jack was in the typical 'a monsters approaching me so ima fall down and crawl away' pose and his desperate attempts to escape were at a record-breaking 10 inches per minute.

Again Perseus grabbed Jack by the waist and carried him like how a bandit would carry off a princess. He hauled Jack like he was baggage and sprinted off.

Dashing toward the enclave off trees once again Perseus looked for all possible ways to escape. He was getting close to the enclave of trees but he wasn't sure if the trees would be able to bar the angry rabbit away from them.

And then he saw it, it was like a holy prophecy from the gods standing in the light, only just a few hundred meters ahead of Perseus were two twin trees. Standing perfectly perpendicular to each other. They were just small enough for a human to pass through and a giant angry rabbit to get stuck in. How convenient!

Perseus dumped Jack in the nearby bushes hoping that the rabbit would go after himself, after all, he was the one that turned her son into a baseball for a bit.

The rabbit didn't even stop to look at the flying Jack that was discarded from Perseus instead it just started gaining on Perseus even though he had lost a good 80 pounds from that discharge.

Perseus could see the horn getting closer to, and he still had 200 meters left. He started doing evasive maneuvers or swaying back and forth hoping the enemy was stupid enough to miss him. Which that rabbit was. It attempted to thrust its horn at Perseus's back which he somehow managed to dodge without even looking.

This continued on with Perseus moving parts of his body erratically and somehow dodging the rabbit's swings. Either the rabbit was stupid or Perseus was just insanely lucky. Boops still thinks it was a mix of both, mostly the first option.

Perseus continued on his desperate race, his body still moving erratically throwing the rabbit off course.

He got to the last 100 meters he legs starting to get tired his breathing started to get labored. HIs erratic crazy moments started to slow down. Perseus felt like somebody had just dropped a few extra blocks of concrete on his back and then attached an anchor. In short, he was suffering.

He was around 70 meters away and his legs started to give out, in a last-ditch attempt Perseus desperately flung himself to the side. Hoping that somehow the giant rabbit would lose track of him. The giant rabbit did lose sight of him, after witnessing a sudden flash from the human it skidded to a stop, sniffing its nose and looking for the human.

Those moments were all the time Perseus needed, giving him a few seconds of much-needed rest. He jumped out ready to continue the race, he jumped out and started bolting straight toward the two trees. Running past the sniffing giant rabbit and gaining a large lead.

The rabbit immediately finding the smell started chasing Perseus relentlessly tearing up a path in the woods.

The two thick trees started to get closer, the only lighted up place in the dark forest seemed like it was calling for Jason.

It got closer and closer 50 meters then 40, 30

in the last 20 meters, the rabbit suddenly had a large adrenalin rush and it started charging, any large leads that Perseus had were now gone, the horn was coming for Perseus like an inevitable fate.

In the last 10 meters to the twin trees, Perseus started jumping like a professional long jumper, his stride increasing with a small hop in each step. Those small hops saved his life. The giant rabbit's horn stabbed straight through Perseus's armor but instead of it completely decimating him it caught him in mid-air and actually propelled him forward. At the cost of his gear and a small flesh wound. Perseus was flying, he jumped through the twin trees and immediately turned his head.

A large horn met his face, It took Perseus a good 5 seconds to realize that the horn wasn't moving. The giant rabbit had gotten stuck in the two trees being caught in mid-jump its front limbs and back limbs were all waving in midair.

Thankfully the trees were large and strong otherwise Perseus would have had to start running again.

Perseus looked at the giant rabbit with a smug face on his face. Even though it was a rabbit he felt like he was just won at something.

He grabbed his sword and in the name of poetry, the younger one was turned into a baseball, and the giant one was turned into a golf tee. Its head being the golf ball.
