What do you do?

Hide!

You quickly run behind the old tree and hide, hoping whatever it is will move on by without spotting you.

Unfortunately, fate seems to be against you today, and as the noise gets louder, it also gets slower.

You peak your head out of hiding just as a large, incredibly ornate horse-drawn carriage comes around the bend, and worse, it looks like it's going to stop right here!

You curse under your breath and duck back behind the tree, hoping you're wrong, but soon you hear the carriage's wheels grinding to a halt.

You hear voices conversing with each other, but you can't make out what they're saying from your current position.

You think about making a run for it, but realize anything else you could possibly hide behind is too far away to reach.

While you're mulling over your (lack of) options, the voices suddenly stop. You hear what sound's like a loud stomping or pounding noise, and decide to poke your head back around the tree to get a better look at what you're dealing with.

The driver has disappeared from your site, so you decide slowly inch your way around the tree to try to get a better angle.

You take only a few steps and then walk right into the wagon's driver, knocking each other over and landing in a heap. The driver let's out a surprised yelp, and in the process of trying to get off of you, ends up pinning you to the ground.

You stare at each other in complete surprise for moment.

What does the driver see?
