Did anyone wonder what it feels like to get shot from a distance? Especially at night, a brief flash, followed by searing pain.
One moment, Aurelia stood above them, gripping a rapier. In a flash, she lunged at Ryan, aiming for his shoulder. He instinctively dropped his body low, just in time to evade her thrust. The attack missed his shoulder by inches.
As the rapier's blade skidded across Ryan's helmet, sparks jumped from the friction, causing a section of the helmet to glow with heat.
The thrust made Ryan stumble. Aurelia quickly planted her long right leg on his chest and pushed him down, driving him into the ground and forming a crater. She taunted, "Oh my, looks like I stepped on a puppy. Do enjoy premium service while you depart for the afterlife."
Ryan grunted as Aurelia pressed him down with overwhelming force. He barely kept his armour from caving in. He quipped, "I would have liked not to get stepped by a pedo, who weighs more than a whale."
