"Asriel, move, keep moving." She states firmly back, wishing she could comfort him, but knowing it isn't the time. Toriel's grip is steady on Asriel, leading him forward. Her focus is enough on her son her fire flickers behind her. The next shot rings loudly around them. The bullet hits the wall next to them. Far closer to Asriel than Toriel can tolerate.

Toriel finally whips around to face the refugee and with as much force as she can manage she shoves the woman back with her wall of fire into the side of the doorway. The gun goes off for the final time. This time the aim is true.

Toriel feels almost disconnected from herself when she realizes she's been shot. She does not bleed, she simply has dust leak from her chest.
