Time stood still.

I glanced right.

I felt like ice water had been shot into my skull.

Shivers run down my spine.

They screamed a warning, of what, I wasn't sure.

I glance back.

He was preoccupied, totally consumed in the kill.

Just looking and watching his determination makes me swell with pride.

He's glorious, heroic, and brave.

I glance to my left.

Now, time moves in fast forward.

The ice water turns to boiling fury.

A dagger. Cold and black as death.

Going straight for him.

He is not to be touched.

I jump and feel a blinding pain in my upper arm.

I glance at my blood.
