I felt every hit in excruciating detail with each erratic, painful heartbeat as my world became reduced to a series of agony.

When they left me for dead my eyes began to droop and the last thing I saw through fuzzy tunnel-like sight was a man running towards me before one final rattling breath coursed through my broken body and my heart stopped beating.Complete
