Amanda’s POV: I sprung up suddenly knife in hand. The weight in my arms and legs was still there, but the adrenaline flowing through my veins helped slightly. Jack jumped back looking startled and my heart jumped. A look overtook his face that I hadn’t expected. I hadn’t expected him to actually be afraid. If this were a movie you would see the look of sheer terror on his face in the glint of the knife. For a millisecond, it actually stopped me. A MILLISECOND. But that was all it took. It all happened too fast. Jack grabbed my wrist too quickly for me to do anything. I tried to push forward and attack but he twisted ferociously and I screamed, dropping the knife. “At tat, tat, ta,” he chided, kicking the knife across the floor. He then …show more content…
“STOP!” He let me go but shoved me hard against the wall, right into a picture frame. I hit my head with a solid thump on the corner of it and recoiled slightly. “Ugh,” I groaned.

I pumped my legs harder as the weight in my muscles settled to my feet. Seeing the door I didn’t even slow my pace. I smashed into it, shoulder first, and it gave but didn’t break. The pain in my shoulder was unbearable at this point. I screamed. Partially from the pain, partially from the overwhelming feeling of dread filling me.
