Our Savior

Leon was hopeless.

No eyes to see.

No strength to move.

No hope left to hold.

Why can't I stand?

Why can't I move?

And... why can't I just die?

Tears—if he still had them—would have fallen.

Why did it have to be him?

Why Ren?

Why not me...?

He heard footsteps.

Minus 1, drawing closer.

So this is it...? Is dying here... the right choice?

But what about her? My sister... What happens to her if I die here like this?

A horrific thought tore through his mind—

What if she ends up like Mom...?

SNAP.

No.

No, no, no!

What the hell am I thinking?!

She won't! Not while I still breathe. Not while I still live.

STAND.

STAND!

STAND!!!

Stand up.
