a cord of pure white lashed out , slicing through rend 's shoulders as easily as a sword through water ... me , streaked with blood , writhing under the point of an ivory knife ... marty 's anguish as silver knives drove into his flesh ... me and marty in a trunk , him restrained with silver , me with rope ... a large hall decorated in pastel hues , its opulence marred by glass , blood , and multiple bodies on the ground ... two vampires being forced into a van , both of them pierced with silver harpoons .
