Robert and Julia awoke to find various sharp implements surrounding their bed, each wielded by a human from their fields. "What's going on?" Robert asked "I'll tell you what's going on." Replied Matthew "We're taking over the farm, that's what."
Robert went to get up, but found himself quickly surrounded by pitchforks and sickles pointed at him. "We don't want to hurt you or your family." Matthew said "But try anything, and we will defend ourselves, to the death if necessary."
"Why are you doing this?" Julia asked "After everything we've done for you?" Matthew scoffed "Done for us? What you've done is essentially raise us like pigs for slaughter. You planned to eat or sell every one of us, regardless of how you treated us. Did you really think some of us wouldn't want to rebel? Now, here's how this will go down. Each of you may take whatever essentials you need. Then you get in your truck and never come back. If we see you again, we will not hesitate to do what we must."
About ten minutes later, Robert and Julia were in the front of the family pick up truck, while their children were in the bed with their bags. Matthew turned to Jeffery and an older buck named John, who was known to be friends with Robert.
"Now, you two have a choice to make. You can either stay with us, or leave with them." Without saying a word, they both climbed into the back of the truck. "So be it. But never set foot on this land again, or you will be regarded as one of them." With that, the Wolfe's drove off as the rebelling humans errupted into cheers.
