The two rabbits went up to the board at a hopping run and crouched ina patch of nettles on the far side, wrinkling their noses at the smell of a dead cigarette end somewhere in the grass. Suddenly Fiver shivered and cowered down.
"Oh, Hazel! This is where it comes from! I know now-something very bad! Some terrible thing-come closer and closer."
He began whimpering with fear.
"What sort of thing-what do you mean? I thought you said there was no danger?"
"I don't know what is is," answered Fiver wretchedly. "There isn't any danger here, at this moment. But it's coming-it's coming. Oh Hazel, look! The field! It's covered with blood!"
