Excerpt from Reckoning

Just then, Valora burst out from the pyre and lunged toward Billy. This was a woman who had crippled Daniel, who could go one-on-one with The Hammer. Compared to them, Billy was about as tough as a pane of glass. He’d be dead before he hit the floor.

Fortunately, Billy had presence of mind enough to shoot a jet of flame directly into Valora’s onrushing face. It scorched her, but she quickly ducked under the blast and rolled, leaping up to swing at Billy. But he’d sidestepped just enough that her punch only glanced his head. It still sent him pitching up against a burning rack of weapons.

The others were getting to their feet, now. Billy looked over at me. I wasn’t sure why. To ask for guidance? To see if I was alive? To say goodbye?
