It was a long counter layout facing out to the shop with a side door (seldom locked), the staff inside nearest to the side door is the settler, followed by the cashier in the middle (whom had been sent home) and lastly the shop manager.
About 3pm Mark the settler runs past me screaming something or other, and I see a balaclaved man with a knife just inside of the side counter door, inside the counter, I know it's Jimmy behind the balaclava but he is drunk and he has a knife, not a very big knife, only about 3 or 4 inches long but he is coming at me very aggressively, there is no where to run, I am completely trapped within the counter and with my settler Mark quaking in his boots behind me.
I hold my ground (like I had a choice) as he comes toward me with the knife.
All my flash thinking within the 2 seconds I had was;
Firstly no way was he getting a body shot at me to stab and maybe kill me,
Then I thought; 'Give him a leg' but then thought; 'Naw, I'm kinda fond of that',
Then thought; 'Give him an arm', but again thought; "Naw, I'm fond of that too'.
