Far From Help

I was just handling some business when I heard the rattle.


I slowly looked around and saw the rattlesnake to my left, rearing up, rattling consistently now. If I hadn't been business handling right before I'd have gone then and there, given how far away from help.


I slowly pulled up my pants, keeping an eye on it, as I prepared to run.


It suddenly shot forward, and I leapt forward, right into a cactus. I quickly got to my feet, only to see the snake chewing on a scorpion that was apparently right below where I had been businessing.
