Seraphina had never felt so grounded in her life. Every nerve in her body trembled with terror.
Suddenly, her foot slipped, and she crashed to the ground. Her knee was slamming down with a dull thud/ as if her bones had shattered.
Kaveh turned around and saw her biting her lip in pain, her face was pale. He turned around to lift her onto his back.
Seraphina pushed him away. She gritted her teeth as she used her hands to push herself up. She forced a faint, pained smile. "Save your strength. I can still run." Kaveh looked at her. He nodded, grabbed her arm, and pulled her along. They didn't stop.
The pain in her knee was excruciating, as if her entire leg was about to give out.
She couldn't stop. Seraphina kept running, her forehead covered with sweat, betraying the agony she was enduring.

"Bang-" A gunshot rang out, startling the savages. They jumped up and gripped their wooden sticks in alarm.
Seraphina and Kaveh exchanged a glance. His expression was uncharacteristically serious. He raised a finger to his lips, signaling for silence.
Immediately after, they heard a flurry of footsteps as the savages ran. Their feet were crunching over the branches. They shouted in their own language, issuing what sounded like stern warnings. The pirates cursed as their gunfire echoed. The atmosphere was tense.
The pirates were armed with guns. Naturally, they weren't afraid of the savages.
They faced an overwhelming number of opponents and had a limited supply of bullets. Therefore, their advantage wasn't as overwhelming as they'd hoped.
Their frustration grew as they realized they had followed their prey here, only to find nothing but savages. They had been tricked.
