Across the rolling prairie I could see craggy mountain rising under thunderous-looking clouds. As I got closer, I could make out a large cave at the foot of the mountain and stopped dead. Bears. Sure enough, I could see the enormous creatures milling about in front of the cave. I turned to get away before they saw me and realized I’d already been spotted by the bears I hadn’t noticed on either side of me. They came lumbering at me and I flung myself on the ground on my stomach. Heavy paws thumped me meatily in the head and back and tore my shirt. I lay still as death, hoping they’d lose interest. But then I felt a claw flip up my bra clasp and another slid the straps off my shoulder. I felt my jeans tugged down. Paws gripped my hips and jerked them up into the air. And… I was okay with this.
