Six Sentence Sunday

I'm returning to "Foreshadow" this week for another six!



           A dark fog eddied and swirled around his body.  Lightning crackled at his hands.  He raised his arms and flung them forward.           
            I cringed as the lightning surged toward us.  I couldn’t move fast enough to get out of the way.  I shut my eyes tightly, waiting for the shock.

    It takes a bit of work to make an action sequence feel fast, and this one does it. Time slows toward the end of it, but that seems appropriate to 'waiting for the shock.'

    It's not looking good and you will continue with this

    That is not a good place to be. Hope it comes out all right.

    Thanks, everyone!

    Jayel, I guess you'll just have to read it and see!

    murdersandmysteries, you want me to pick up from here next week with another six? I may just do that . . .
