The restaurant was bustling with families enjoying the unique ambiance. Among them was a particularly bratty kid, Billy, who took a strange delight in taunting the large, big-bellied, female animatronic wolf on stage.

Billy, his face smeared with pizza sauce, approached the stage with a malicious grin, aiming his insults at the wolf's rotund figure. The wolf's eyes flashed, a low growl escaped her speakers.

A disgruntled employee, Jack, tried to intervene, warning Billy about the old saying, 'Never anger a big bad wolf'. Billy laughed, continuing his taunts.

Time passed and Billy vanished. His parents, confused, questioned Jack, who felt a chill creep up his spine. He rushed to check the wolf.

The wolf's belly appeared larger, distended. Jack's heart pounded as he drew closer. The wolf's eyes flashed again, and from its speakers, echoed Billy's laughter.

Jack froze, the color draining from his face. Something wasn't right. The room fell silent, the laughter echoing in his ears as the horrifying truth dawned on him.
