Time Slow Motion

Charlotte could see the deviation of the bullet's flight. Not a metaphor. She could clearly see each copper-cased projectile spinning through the air, like frozen raindrops in slow motion. This ability saved her three times - on the battlefield, in an alley, and at the moment of the explosion in the laboratory. Until the bullet aimed at her temple made her see the determined tears in the gunman's eyes. She suddenly understood: Those who can see the trajectory of death will never be able to dodge another kind of bullet - those that fly silently, called "why".
