Even expecting it, the pain was staggering. He moaned as Eigis’s talons dug deeper into his skin. The demon twisted his head back and forth, teeth g...awing furiously. Disgusted and furious, now that the demon was close enough and sufficiently distracted, Hiryu tried to fight back. The chains clanked as he tried bending his arms, jerking up his knees. If he could just hit the damn creature!But it was no use. His arms and legs were stretched too far apart, the chains too short or cranked up too. Sounds good. So off we went to the barn, loaded up what we might need and off we went. Now setting very close and naked we bounced along the fence line.

I got some water bottles and we sat down in the grass refreshing our need for water. Half way through her cold water she leans back and pours in down. .” She paused. I reached over and touched her hand to comfort her. I thought something had happened to Grandmother.

My Aunt said something about a smaller aircraft being on the wrong runway and there was a collision with my mother’s. I shouted to the man, "DON'T SHOOT THE DOG! SHE IS TRYING TO HELP YOU!"The man yelled agreement and stopped shooting. Meanwhile, I found a tree to climb and got into position to shoot at the boar. I wondered if it was a lost cause to shoot at the animal's head because I assumed that the skull was too thick to take much damage from my soft-metal bullets. Therefore, I aimed at the boar's body and hoped for the best.I had to fire three times before I finally killed the animal. Man, that was some.
