THE ROOM AROUND them is all but SOAKED in the WINE RED HORRORS of blood . FLASHES of it splatter the walls like PAINT , and even more of it POOLS at leon’s feet . it’s DRIPPING off of him now , even still , until he reaches down and PULLS a black bandage TIGHTLY over the top of his arm . he won’t NEED the cut there any longer to provide him with the EXTRA BOOST of magic they both desperately needed , not when the silence of CORPSES are the only thing left to ring out across the battle field . things hadn’t necessarily GONE TO PLAN . at least , not in the SQUEAKY CLEAN way he suspects his HEROIC ACQUAINTANCE is often PARTIAL to . but RESULTS , leon believes , are EVER RELIABLE in speaking for THEMSELVES .
❛ afraid of a LITTLE MESS , SUPERMAN ? ❜ leon GLANCES over his shoulder at the other , lips curved an almost CALCULATINGLY eerie smile . his attention is turned on the only other man left ALIVE in the room with him ; DISTRUST sharpening his eyes beneath the mask despite their TEMPORARY ALLIANCE . he’s ❛ TEAMED UP ❜ with a handful of HEROES before , after all . however briefly . and NOT MANY of them prove THRILLED when his methods become a touch too UNSAVORY for their PRISTINE APPETITES .
turning around to FACE superman at last , leon WIPES his blood-soaked talons CLEAN against one of the many cardboard boxes littering the warehouse . stepping forward , he SHAKES the excess dark liquid FREE from the soles of his shoes — leaving in his wake a trail of RED FOOTPRINTS .
❛ i think we did the BEST WE COULD with the tools we HAVE . A for EFFORT , as they say ~ ❜
