We're Gonna Have to Go Through It

For a moment, this was almost nice. Peter had managed to catch one of the orbs in his jar, and it seemed like it cast just enough light to get them through the basement, for Adam’s.... god horn. Peter still wasn’t entirely sure he believed that, between how fantastic it sounded and the fact that Adam was drunk and had only said something after they’d arrived. Peter was already half turned towards Adam when a shape from the darkness knocked him to the ground. A dagger was materializing in his hand as Adam shouted, instinct moving Peter before the words actually reached him. He wasn’t close enough to stab it, wasn’t fast enough to close the gap between the beast and himself before it had the chance to hit Adam again, so he wasn’t left with any options. At least, no good options. After a moments pause, the knife left Peter’s hand, thrown the same instant Adams gun went off. The sound made him stumble back, fear gripping him, but he kept his eyes on the creature, the more immediate danger still fresh in his mind. ”Hey! Over here!” He didn’t think the dagger alone would be enough to get the things attention, but hopefully his taunt would do it. There was no doubt in his mind that he’d be able to sidestep any charge mwdevtiwards him. Peter try, try your whole life to be righteous and good
