The pure shock of what she was suggesting hit him like ice, like dying.
There was neither place nor time, now, for any tactics but pure shock.
When he found he couldn't I expected a heart attack from pure shock.
"But, my god, girl, I've never seen such pure shock."
Numbly, he realized that this must be what pure shock feels like.
Her expression was now one of pure and simple shock.
He saw her eyes widen, first with pure shock and then delight.
Then the horizon exploded in a pure, silent shock of light.
His first reaction, however, was pure shock, and he chastised her for being out of bed.
I had less than an instant to react, but the pure shock was sufficient for me to waste it.
