,,,,,,,;^# sound a horn, nudge the animal a #^;,,,,,,,
,,,,,,;§§# little, but ultimately wait it out. #§§;,,,,,,
,,«;^§#£## although they will log video, no call ##£#§^;«,,

,,,,««««^# the railmakers are siemens-manufactured #^««««,,,,
,,«;^§#££# brick-like things. fields of gray and #££#§^;«,,
,,,,,,;§## teal, floodlights, thrumming and ##§;,,,,,,
,,«;^§#££# hissing. trilling to each other, like #££#§^;«,,
,,«;^§#£## language. and here, three of them, ##£#§^;«,,
,,«;^§#£## slowly making their way through the ##£#§^;«,,
,,«;^§£### dense forest. ###£§^;«,,
,,;^§#£### ###£#§^;,,
,,«;§#£### i'm coming up on them from behind and ###£#§;«,,
,,,,,;^§## to the left, hidden behind the thick ##§^;,,,,,
,,«;^§#£## foliage. their light finds the gaps ##£#§^;«,,
,,«;^§#£## between the leaves, casting rays ##£#§^;«,,
,,,,,,«^§£ through the wet air, playing over my £§^«,,,,,,
,,,,,,,«^# face and arms, and my weapon. i quickly #^«,,,,,,,
,,,,,,;§§# overtake them, crouch in the ditch made #§§;,,,,,,
,,«;^§#£## by the preprocessor, and watch. one of ##£#§^;«,,
,,,,,«^^§£ them is already a bit behind the £§^^«,,,,,
,,,,«;^§#£ others. it will be my target. £#§^;«,,,,
,,«;^§#£## ##£#§^;«,,
,,«;^§#£## just as the light of the leading two is ##£#§^;«,,
,,,,«;§### dimming, i deploy the rabbits, throwing ###§;«,,,,
,,«;^§#£## them in the path of my prey. the ##£#§^;«,,
,,«;^§#£## creatures are yet alive, but maimed so ##£#§^;«,,
,,,,,«^^## as to be unable to move - they will ##^^«,,,,,
,,«;^§#£## stay in the path of the railmaker, ##£#§^;«,,
,,«;^§#£## forcing it to pause, further separating ##£#§^;«,,
,,«;^§#£## it from its two friends. ##£#§^;«,,
