the strong stench of vital fluid mixed with red human blood reached your nose as you continued to dodge the hits of the corrupted surrounding you and lee, even a thousand shouts from lee telling you to stay back didn't stop you from entering the battlefield to keep him safe. he punched the ground with his fist as he continued to shout for you to come back, he was frustrated that he got tired and fell down from the battle.
you could not bear to see him shouldering all of it while waiting for the other two members to reunite with both of you.
lee could not bear to see you throwing yourself in battle just like that and that caused him to panic, he took in every detail, cuts and cuts and cuts on your delicate skin that he wished he could run his thumb over and heal it with his lips but he see you fend off on your own with the last of the corrupted and fell with it's damaged body. you had fought the corrupted and when all was done, so were you.
lee saw how the commandant crawled to him, dragging their bloody human body to the damaged construct, lee remembered how they struggled to sit beside him and place their head on his shoulders told him words of comfort. It was like they tried to erase the terrible outcomes that will happen next, like they were reassuring not only him but the commandant themselves. he was afraid to talk, afraid that when he asks a question - silence would be the reply.
and when lee had woken up and his frame fixed he shouted your name, asked for you when he saw lucia and liv beside him and they looked at him with an emotion too human.
at night when lee was alone, your voice lingers in the silent night until it became a memory. he wanted you to haunt him, bring him down below where you are. he envied that death had wrapped itself on you before he could do so.
the doctors said that there were multiple wounds - too many of them, that you had lost too much blood and that you were beyond saving. they said that you continued to fight and tried to live even if you knew you didn't have a chance against death itself. the doctor even silently wept for you, pitied your state because who would want to survive in this barren world? why struggle to stay alive despite all odds? but you knew the answer, deep down when you were hanging on a thread of your life was your last thought, lee.
the doctor didn't know it was all because you wanted to see the sunrise once more, wanted to fight beside liv, lucia, and lee once more, to play with kamui once more, and to find small little details about the construct you loved so much.
all because of the construct you loved so much.
