Snippet #1446493

Kayl dodged back and forth, zigzagging to try and not get hit by any of the bullets. However, one of the gunmen followed his movement easily, waited for the opportune moment, and bang, the bullet flew through the air until it embedded itself in Kayl's right shoulder. Tripping, Kayl tumbled face first to the ground, a cry of pain stifled by the dirt. Struggling to his feet, he continued to try and run, but was shaky and clumsy now, mind in panic mode while he tried to continue being calm. He brought up his left hand, pressing it against the wound in an attempt to stop the bleeding, but it only set him off balance and slowed him down. Hand dropping to his side, Kayl ran for what looked like a road ahead, but he was quickly running out of breath and his legs felt like they were made of jelly. Hesitating for a moment, he glanced over his shoulder and was satisfied to notice that they were quite out of firing range unless the guards had sniper rifles and the like.

Jogging toward a nearby tree, Kayl leaned against it, breathing hard. "Just- Just a minute. Gotta get my breath back." he glanced toward his shoulder and grimaced, seeing blood oozing from the wound.
