On Thin Ice

Rain was ready to step on the ice when something inside her screamed. Perhaps it was because of the subtle change in the sounds behind her, or perhaps it was because of the change in the currents of the wind. 

Perhaps she had subconsciously noticed the shadow moving unnaturally around her.

Rain dodged, and in the next moment, her side was pierced by a flash of blinding pain. 

She spun in the air and crashed into the ice, throwing herself into a roll. A moment later, Rain was already on her feet, sliding back as she held the javelin between herself and the enemy.
