Neroo could not tear his eyes away as he watched Stone, whether fuelled by insanity or bravery, laughably draw back his fist in readiness to punch the beast square in the face. A booming crack, like a thunderclap, that caused him to close his eyes and cover his ears in shock, the report echoing a thousand times off all the trees.

Stone’s face was invisible, his fist held to his side, blood dripping to the forest floor with a steady drip-drip-drip. Views: 39
