Six sentence Sunday #3
I recovered my senses as Cuthbert’s second arrow left his bow and flew towards the wounded foe. It hit him in the throat and the man’s hand flew up to grasp the arrow, shock and disbelief showing in his wide eyes. Then he tumbled full length onto the grass; already dead. I ran forward ten yards behind Eduard, feeling the blood pumping through my veins and my heart pounding like a blacksmith’s hammer. Suddenly, the fear was gone and all I now wanted was to kill these bastards and make them pay for what they had done to us.
