Nova Peak And she's suddenly cruel

She bounced when she hit the ground, before spinning over and over again until at last her momentum stopped- abruptly, having hit something that wasn't arguably much softer than the hillside. She slid, and remained on her side for a moment, eyes wide and flicking from side to side as she struggled to catch up with her dizziness. 

His voice sounded distant at first, and she remained prone for a moment or two after he spoke, until she realized she'd not been breathing. She hacked and wheezed- but found it nearly impossible to inhale. She lurched, struggling to bring her forepaws beneath her so she could prop herself up a bit, but hung her head and tried to drag in breaths. It felt like something was lodged in her throat- allowing only a small amount of oxygen to pass. On the exhale, however, what little air she sucked in exited easily. She coughed and hacked, her tongue hanging out as she attempted to recapture the wind that had been knocked out of her-

fully believing that this was going to be the end of her.
