"Rocky! Let him go, Rocky!" I clenched my teeth against the pain, hugging Rocky with all my might. Hearing my voice, Rocky finally let go but still growled lowly at Clyde.

Brenda panicked, quickly kneeling to check on me. "Are you okay? Why's there so much blood? I'm calling 911 right now. Don't be scared." Rocky whimpered, nuzzling me with his head.

I weakly patted him. "It's okay, Rocky. I'll be fine. Don't panic."

Rocky's big eyes reflected my pale face, and at that moment, I thought I might die.
