Faint of Heart
“One of the knives struck Todd in the shoulder, while the other slashed across his upper chest. He cried out in pain, dropped his makeshift spear, and spun around, revealing his bloody wounds, the knife still lodged in his shoulder. Alan grabbed him by the back of the collar as Nicholas jumped to his feet and hurried forward.
Stephen rushed out of the woods, a few feet from where Alan had emerged. He held a shotgun. "Don't move, either of you!" he shouted, pointing the weapon first at Nicholas, ...then at Rebecca.
Nicholas stopped, just as Alan yanked the knife out of Todd's shoulder and pushed him to the ground. Nicholas raised the spear as if he were going to throw it, but apparently realized the futility of the gesture and returned to the campfire. Rebecca remained frozen where she stood.
"C'mon, get up," said Alan, kicking Todd in the side. "I didn't cut you that bad! Get the hell up!" Stephen walked over to Rebecca and Nicholas, keeping the shotgun pointed at them and stopping about ten feet from the campfire.MoreLess
