"W-Why...?"
The moment Alex heard that broken voice of a man, his body tensed, and his steps hastened.
*Woosh*
He zoomed toward the heap of debris, not wanting to waste any more time.
"I-I can—!"
*Squelch*
With the distance getting shorter, Alex could hear things more clearly than before, and the deathly silence surrounding him just helped him with that.
He could vividly imagine the expression on the face of the woman who seemed to be begging someone, only to have her words cut short by a sickening squelch.
"I didn't have any other choice."
Alex could hear a low murmur, causing his steps to get faster and faster.
*Step**Step*...
He climbed up the pile of debris, not wanting to go face-to-face with whoever it was.
