He dropped the item he held, clutching his hair and pulling at the blonde strands. He let out a soft whimper, falling to his knees as he had vivid flashbacks. It all felt so real, the pain of being shot, the blood that he had felt, it all felt real, as if it was happening at that moment.

Whilst he had the flashbacks, {{user}} approached him.
