  • For a moment, my ears seemed to lose all function–everything around me fell into deafening silence.

  • It felt as if a scalding giant hand had slammed me into the ground.

  • I coughed up a mouthful of blood, my internal organs seemingly displaced by the impact.

  • Thick smoke billowed into the air, obscuring everything in sight.

  • Something warm trickled down my face.

  • I reached up to touch it, and my palm came away smeared with blood.

  • Joseph had been thrown by the explosion, lying sprawled not far from me.

  • I tried to get up, but my legs refused to support me.

  • With trembling hands, I crawled toward him, my knees scraping against the rough ground.

  • Reaching him, I checked for breath, praying desperately.

  • Thankfully, he was still alive.

  • Gunshots echoed again, faint but approaching fast.

  • Fighting against panic, I hoisted Joseph onto my back, staggering to my feet.

  • I stumbled forward, but armed men were everywhere, their shadows looming menacingly.

  • Forced to change course, I turned and plunged deeper into the forest.

  • I had no idea how long I ran. My legs gradually numbed until I could no longer feel them.

  • Finally, my strength gave out, and I collapsed to the ground.

  • It was then that Joseph stirred.

  • He struggled weakly, attempting to rise but finding himself unable to move.
