Jabari's father begged the buyer for his son not to be taken, but was struck in the back, mocked, and beaten by the overseer. Jabari's hands were then bound together with rope and tied to the end of the buyer's saddle. As the buyer began to ride off with Jabari he cried and tried to resist, but was unable to stop the horse. His mother desperately ran in front of the man's path and begged for him not to take her son, but received a hard boot to the face instead.

But before he could count to three Jabari's head turned towards him revealing an enraged expression and Jabari quickly pounced on the man, savagely tearing into him with his newfound claws. |
