The pain throbbed through Emmit’s skull as he lay on the ground. A hand shook his shoulder, and through a cracked eye he saw the glint of steel. Thunder crashed through his ears, jerking him fully awake!

His right hand shoved hard against the floor as he found his feet, while his left hand found the throat of the sword wielder who had shaken him. His grey eyes were wide as he lifted her off the floor. Wait-Her! 

Emmit dropped Evangeline when he realized he’d been holding her of the ground, by the throat. Breathing hard, he turned to the prone figure, as it lay unmoving. Pulling the sword from the girl’s grip, he walked over to the assassin, and brought the silver blade down on its owners neck… And it was no surprise what he saw.
