Epilogue
Gordon knew nothing but the feel of his brother's dead body clasped in his arms as he rocked gently. Tears streaming down his face, his voice cracked and broken as he repeated "I'm sorry." Over and over in the dark silence.
He didn't hear the voices calling his name. Didn't see the lights of two torches dance across the floor. Didn't feel the hand gently touching his face.
He had killed his little brother.
He hadn't arrived in time.
"I'm sorry." He said as a fresh well of tears came from nowhere to escape down his cheeks. Sobs ripped his crumpled form, bring the choking coughs, bringing the blood.
"Virgil! We need to make him let go of Alan. Virgil! Please-we need to do this or we'll lose them!"
Movement.
Gordon felt Alan being pulled from his arms.
"No!" he screamed, trying to get him back. Strong arms wrapped round him, pulling him back. "No!" he coughed-triggering another coughing fit. Suddenly he couldn't breath.
"Gordon! Gordon calm down! Gordon! Virgil-what about Alan? Gordon-Gordo please-its us Gordo!"
"Scott-Scot, Alan's-"
Gordon's body gave up and he slipped into nothingness.
Into eternal darkness.
Destined to suffer for eternity.
Because he had killed his little brother.
Please review.
