Fahrenheit 451 - The Hound's Prey
Out for a simple midnight stroll. This particular victim has no idea what will soon be coming his way. No way of knowing that a dangerous man, Guy Montag, is on the loose. This criminal is busy with his own attempt at fooling the hound. Moving towards the river. This ex fireman probably has the best chance out of any would be victim to escape the death that is the hound. He smartly knows that his best and only chance at avoiding the hound is to quickly make it tot he river where the moving water will take his scent downstream with him. Thus making it impossible for the hound to track him. Guy has no idea what lengths the government will go to keep its self from looking bad in front of the public. Which they have awoken to watch Guy be murdered by the mechanical beast. The whole city watches in suspense waiting for the hound to strike. The chase does seems to become a little peculiar when the hound goes to the river and seems to have no idea what to do. But things are back to normal when he gets his bearing. Off he races towards the city. Having apparently realized his mistake and coming to correct it. The hound seems to have gotten new life. Following a more direct pattern than it previously had been. All of a sudden the victim has been found Guy Montag has grown careless and is walking. The hound leaps, seeming suspended in mid air. The needle surges forward. Piercing cloth then flesh as it kills the man. Little do the viewers at home realize they have been had. Fooled by the corrupt government. Rather than a dangerous criminal dead they have just a normal man who enjoys walking around at night. They most likely would not care, all of them will sleep soundly knowing they got their entertainment for the night, something worthy of being woken up for.
