She tried to process what had just happened, yet the rapid adrenaline coursing through her veins set her mind into overdrive. Crimson seeped through torn fabric and between pale, shaking digits that hovered over her thigh. She could not think; could not absorb her surroundings. Blurry vision was primarily focused on the bullet wound, bloody and deep, causing seething pain to shoot down her leg.
Ellie tried her damned hardest to focus. She had grown up in this crippled world; one which did not have mercy, so she knew what to do in such events. She had to stay calm, despite the temptation to scream.
Her pistol remained clasped in her free hand, grip tight and back pressed against a wall. Legs splayed in front of her, and whilst keeping pressure on the wound, Ellie peaked out from behind the wall. There were only two left, a man and a woman, both ready to take another shot.
❝There’s only two of them. We got this, ❞ she whispered through gritted teeth, green eyes glancing over at the woman. They had to take them out before she could turn her attention to her leg, otherwise the blood loss would be the last thing on her mind.
