The Samhain Chronicles: Ch. 9
"NO!!!" Danny cried, reaching out in desperation toward Penelope as the rifle's muzzle flashed. She was a good two meters away from him, yet somehow he made it to her side in under a second. operating fully on raw instinct, he held her close to his body and turned his back to Kane, bracing for the searing pain that was sure to come from the bullet impacting his flesh. To his utter shock, however, the pain he expected never came. He staggered from the impact, but instead of feeling the bullet sink into his flesh he heard a high-pitched crystalline "ping", and a confused string of expletives from Kane. When he peeked open one eye to brave a look around, everything was white around him.

The shelter
We traipsed through the woods. It had started to drizzle, and the air was misty and cold. I could see my breath leave my mouth in big puffs as I navigated through the thick underbrush. The blackberry briers grabbed my arms and legs and pulled hard like little sharp claws desperate to hold me back. They left tiny micro-cuts in the fabric of my damp pants and sweatshirt as I struggled free from them. Some of the briers found their way into my skin, and they hurt me in the superficial way a paper cut might.
