In an instant, he moved his face to the side, seemingly seeing the bullet coming. The shot almost went clean through his eye if he didn't evade. The bullet pierced the seat, but the seat was reinforced by a steel body under the padding. It didn't get to harm the person shooting from that place.

Rowan slid down to hide and touched the side of his eye. Blood dripped from it, and his fingers stung the skin. It seemed that the bullet still grazed his face, but he didn't feel any impact. He only felt the pain because he started crying again.
"What's happening?" Rowan murmured before curling down, hands on his face. "Why are they trying to kill me, too?"
