Late night drabble
listening to "And so he screams" by Jason iscaroit. There's a few quotes in there.
A leader. That's what he's supposed to be. He watches the red blood stream down his arms. What a fucking failure.
He couldn't save the people he loves. What kind of leader just sits their and watches his friends, no, family die. Strangled. Murdered. Tortured.
So close to victory, yet so far away.
He couldn't save them. If he can't live up to his name, why bother to live at all?
The dam breaks and his mutant tears cloud his vison.
He falls to his knees and lets out a sob that echoes of the walls as a scream. A scream for help, forgiveness, hope. But none return his plea.
The memories come flooding back around him and he gasps for breath above their waves. He wasted too much time. Their screams. She fell to her knees before the evil Lord. She was beaten and bruised. She shuddered as her body took each hit. She could hold up for much longer, the way her body shook and her screams became weaker. Finally on her last sight of life she lashed out fruitlessly. He watched in torment and his single hand reached out but could not help, as she screamed.
They didn't leave him alone, he brought himself this insanity. Alone to drown in his shame. A life time has past, but he hasn't accomplished anything. He wanted to be great. To be a leader. Or just simply enough, not a reject. Even in the end he could avenge their death, but he gives his dreams away to the pain.
His body trembles as he grips the blade. No one's left to see his death. No one knows this torment he's been left to live with. He has no help, which leaves no choice. He accepts his defeat. They will never win. Perhaps they were never meant to. They have been crushed with no propose to continue on.
He shouldn't be allowed to die a peaceful death. His blade will make sure of that. He lets out a scream. The time has come to end his pain and burn to the hell he deserves. If only he could say he's sorry one last time.
It's his last chance to remember pain as red tears streak from his veins. He sight fades as he escapes from the world that has only caused his soul to ache. He takes his last breath and remembers all his regrets, as he screams.
As he screams.
