He had barely time to sit when the shock of the transition hit him.

He folded his hands behind him and knew the full shock hadn't yet hit.

Probably he'd been on his way to kill more when the shock hit him.

A small shock hit him and he almost lost his grip on the ladder.

She did not move, but he was watching her eyes and saw shock hit her.

For a moment she looked confused, then the shock of recognition hit her.

But he knew the full shock of it had not hit him yet.

She heard herself screaming from far away as the shock of recognition hit her.

It looked as if he'd fallen right over sideways when the shock hit him.

Even as the shock hit her, she knew that it was true.
