Eight seconds at a time. That's how you beat the bull. Survive the ride. Win. Eight seconds at a time. It's been drilled into me for as long as I can remember. To help me focus. Manage my fear. Stay in control. Eight seconds at a time. I can do anything eight seconds at a time. Even get over her. Riot. When she disappeared, it was all I could think to do. Keep breathing. Keep moving. Keep living. Eight seconds at a time. Until eight seconds turned to eight minutes. Eight hours. Eight days. Eight weeks. Eight months. And finally, eight years. Only now she's back. And I know the only way I'm getting through this, is eight seconds at a time. **INCLUDES BONUS PREQUEL ELEVEN**
