Then had come the battle on Friday, and moments of stark terror.

The man's face was twisted into an expression of stark terror.

The stark terror that she knew was in her eyes.

Once again, stark terror had found this city of doom.

He went hot and cold together in sheer, stark terror.

She had become old on the spot, and her eyes were mirrors of stark terror.

In her eyes he saw no mercy, and that, more than anything, brought him stark terror.

The instant of stark terror when she had been sure he was dead.

In an instant of stark terror she realized what it was.

His voice was shaking again, this time with stark terror.
