Friday Fiction: Reptile

By malikimram

Adria kissed the ground when a deadly machete came flying straight at  her. A dull thud followed when the machete embedded itself on the trunk of massive tree. Noises of a fight between her team and the bad guys continued with  frenetic energy just a couple of yards away that their grunts and fists smashing against flesh were subdued by a sound that chilled her blood. A dangerous rattle repeatedly jingled close to her elbow.

She froze and willed her furious beating heart not climb up her throat.
