The Runaway's Replacement
"Harrison, stay with me! Don't leave me!"
Ethan pulled the trigger, but the gun clicked empty. No bullet came out.
Oscar's eyes flicked to the gun, his mind racing. He knew he'd be questioned for not protecting Lyra, and he couldn't let that happen.
With swift action, Oscar sprinted towards Ethan, knocking the gun out of his hand. He whispered urgently in Ethan's ear, "Jack my nose and run, Sir."
Ethan's eyes darted to Oscar, confusion giving way to understanding. He quickly grabbed Oscar's nose, twisting it violently, and made a run for the door.
