Sarah runs through the forest. She has my long legs and neck, my shoulder-length hair, my high forehead and hard chin. In my eyes, sheâs beautiful, though in the glimpses Iâve caught of my face in pond or puddle, Iâve never seen myself as beautiful. She stares straight ahead as she runs, head held high, muscles a fluid blur against the Ecosystemâs green.
Then she winces as if a blade has sliced her, and I see the shaft of an arrow protruding from the back of her thigh. She runs on, but another arrow strikes home, this one in her calf. The missiles fly all around her, some embedding themselves in trees, others in the earth, by far the greater number in her shoulders, arms, legs. Still she runs on, blood streaming, feathers adorning her. Only when the final arrow plunges into her back does she fall.
I cry out and reach for her, but my body lies heavy and useless. I feel the blades of grass against my legs and spine, sharper than ever before. My hands wander to my chest, where the point of the arrow, red-tipped, smears its gore on my fingers. I stare at the sky as the bloodbirds circle.
