Excerpt:
Pain struck me on the side while attempting to get up. A limb poke through the left side of my stomach. I managed to pick up a metal trash can and smashed it with all I had on its face while my legs were still wrapped around its neck.
Slowly, I rolled over, once it no longer moved. I stood up, leaned against a tree to catch my breath and braced myself before pulling out the stick from my side.
The ground rumbled. I looked up and saw a third Woler charging at me through the trees.
As I planted both feet on the ground, readying for impact, my left leg snapped sending a paralyzing twinge of agony up my whole left side. My left ear popped and blood seeped out. My body went limp and I fell, blinded by the pain.
I tried to get up but it was as if my body was fighting itself. My left side just wouldn’t move. It was useless and I felt helpless. All I could do was watch the creature come for me as I fought to drag my body away to anywhere but here. I gripped the ground beneath me with my right hand, sweating profusely and trying not to scream from my pain at the slightest movement. I could barely lift my head as the earth shook. I waited for its monstrous blow but none came. Only a wail.
I was lifted out of the creature’s way by none other than Ronin.
