Lukas tumbled to the ground as the ghoul crashed into him. He felt something pierce his side and dig into his organs. He rolled further and further as more of him was chopped, cut, and minced into a fine paste inside him.
His head felt light from the pain and pumped as much adrenaline as it could into his system. For a brief moment he thought he was going to die, but he wasn't the easiest target to kill.
Subconsciously, he drew air into his lungs, syphoning with it this strange sensation of shifting time. It all seemed to stop for an imperceptible moment before Lukas let his breath go.
"Tor"
All of the pain vanished in an instant, although Lukas still felt it for a few moments as time flowed backwards around him.
