Summay: He didn't waste his shot. 100 word Jack snippet.


For the first time, in a very long time, Jack was painfully aware of everything around him - the awkward weight of pistol in his lowering hand, the unforgivingly cold expanse of cave-floor under his boots, the burning of the cut running across his palm.

Everything was alien and then all too familiar.

Were the boy's eyes always so wide and disapproving? Were the girl's always so relieved and thankful? Did the smell of spent powder always hang in air, smothering him like a jealous lover?

Sighing, Jack tossed his pistol to the side - he wouldn't need it anymore.
