"Pulling
the trigger on the shotgun after the werewolf has left to its feet and
is descending toward your body with its extended claws aimed at your
heart is a waste of time."
Baron Adolph Rothstein in "Killing Supernatural Creatures."

I got out of the car, turned, and fired
both barrels of the shotgun towards a blurred figure racing at me. The werewolf
howled and grabbed its right hind leg. I reached for two more slugs as the
beast hobbled toward me. I put one slug in a chamber but fumbled the other.
“Idiot,” I muttered to myself and finally chambered both slugs. The top of the
werewolf’s head disappeared when my shotgun roared at the creature. The beast’s
forward momentum carried it into me. The body and the rest of the werewolf’s
head hit my chest, and I bounced off the car. I lost my grip on the shotgun as
I fell to the ground, and I experienced a sharp pain in my left shoulder.
Temporarily stunned, I took a deep breath and .......more.
