Entry for Blink contest.

Only halfway through his evening walk and he was exhausted. He could cut through the woods and be home in minutes. A fine idea. He was off the road and a few steps onto the path when there was an abrupt rustling ahead. Then a low growl. Raccoon? He stood still, listened, then realized that his energy had returned in full. He retreated to the road and completed the walk easily. No shortcut needed.
