Emily stood on the ruined porch of a collapsed storage shed. She fired an arrow into the sky and dropped a giant crow before throwing the bow aside and drawing her katana in a blur of silver light.
Two feline beasts leaped at her from the rubble.
She was bleeding. A long nasty gash ran down her left forearm and her right thigh was covered in dark red blood. She swung her blade and sliced the first beast open but the second one tackled her waist before she could recover. They both crashed into the dirt just as a massive troll raised its stone club. The troll roared and charged toward where she had fallen.
She was wounded and pregnant. She was moving at speeds that were tearing her own muscles apart just to protect the villagers fleeing behind her.
