Even before the trigger was completely pulled, Shoan's movement had begun. He had done this sort of thing many times before, but it still made him nervous every time. One false move and... no, he didn't have room to think about that. He required absolute focus. The world around him slowed to a halt, but the bullet still appeared to be careening towards him, and fast even for a bullet. That was some gun this shrimp was packing. Just as the bullet was about to reach Shoan's... shoulder? Why was he aiming for the shoulder? No matter, it never reached its target anyway. A loud but brief clang was heard as the bullet ricocheted into a tree at the edge of a clearing. "Ha!" yelled Shoan with a big smile on his face. He brought his spear into attack position and in an instant was flying towards the far too calm gunman.
