Darren - Could snap a sheep's neck

If I’d had my full powers, I would have snapped her neck and she would have been dead in an instant, without any pain. But I was weak and clumsy and didn’t twist hard enough the first time.

The sheep began to bleat with agony.

She tried running away, but her legs wouldn’t carry her. She fell to the ground, where she lay bleating miserably.

I tried breaking her neck again but couldn’t. In the end I grabbed a stone and finished the job. It was a messy, horrible way to kill an animal, and I felt ashamed of myself as I grabbed its back legs and hauled it away from the flock.
