You try to scamper away unseen but unfortunately someone sees you, they grab a knife and they try to cut you into pieces, but luckily they miss, at least they miss your main body but they managed to get part of you, your tail. Oh no you have been injured, who knows what will happen to you, you could not survive for a whole year without getting injured. There could be complications. eventually a whole year passes and your time as a mouse is over but you don't know what will happen since you did not survive unscathed. You suddenly feel something happening, but you do not what it is. You don't feel so good, in fact you feel as though something terrible is going to happen to you. You feel sick, perhaps you should have been more stealthy and less visible but it is too late for you now. You'll just have to live with the consequences assuming you live. Just before you pass out your life flashes before your eyes. You cry tears out of your eyes, you don't want it to end like this.
