Silhouettes moved about frantically, as if in a strong disagreement. Emotion seemed to pull from the center of my chest, hooking its way deeper and pulling harder.

The arrow stopped inches in front of my eye, lining up the shot.
Breathe out.
The arrow created a grotesque sound as the arrowhead gain purchase, sheathing itself between skin and bones.
