Just a little something I wrote earlier while I was out! I might turn this into a mini comic, actually, if my schedule ever clears a little.
Hope you like it, Vy! ๐

A wheeze left my mouth as I struggle to breath, my limbs trembling as I watch my hand turn darker and fastly decaying. I was starting to lose the feeling in my limbs, slowly turning more and more numb by the minute. Every slight move of my arms and fingers were becoming a chore, with a dose of pain with every twitch. My left arm was exploding with pain as I stubbornly try and keep my hold of Rose as steady as I can.
Not yet... Not yet... Rose isn't safe here... I can't...
I fell to my knees as soon as I tried to step away, another wheeze escaping my trembling lips at the pain from my knees. Luckily, I was able to keep my hold of Rose. I wouldn't forgive myself if she gets hurt because of me, I already failed once and I am not keen on ever doing failing her again. I already lost Mia, I'm not losing Rose too!

I slumped on my place, unable to move as I focus all the strength left in my body to keep Rose close to me. My right hand's completely gone, turned nothing but moldy ash on the floor. Mold.. That's what I am, aren't I? A man long dead and decaying, supposedly died 3 years ago and now death has caught with me. My grip on Rose gebtly tighthened. Not yet. Not yet. Rose isn't safe yet. I can't give up yet, my daughter needs me-
"Ethan! Ethan!"
Now that's a voice I never thought will bring comfort to me, not after what happened at my home. Granted that wasn't really Mia like I had foolishly thought but the sting of betrayal, of losing a love one still burns. What he did was still fresh in my mind even after through everything I just went through. There's hope, we can still be saved! Weโ
I caught sight of my right hand as Chris helps me to stand up and starts limping our way out of the destroyed place. We're moving too slow...
Rose can still be saved...
๐ต๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐
I am so sorry, Rose...
I looked down as I walk towards the source all this bullshit happening, left hand gently holding the trigger. I can't use it yet, Chris is still nearby with Rose.
Even though I am facing down this beast, I felt happy that Chris didn't bother to convince me to come with him. Felt happy that he chose to run away with Rose and get her to safety as soon as possible.
It was hard, and extremely painful, but I managed to look up and glare at it. I examined it, it was grotesque and disgusting. Letting out one last useless and quiet apology to the two most important people of my life, I pulled the trigger.
I am so sorry, Mia...

A gasp left my mouth as I hastily sat up, a hand coming up to clutch my chest, a poor attempt to try and calm my fast beating heart. I can feel cold sweat dripping down my forehead as I open my eyes and surveyed where I was. Wasn't I in the ruined village? Where am I? Where's Roseโ
"Daddy?"
Startled by the small voice, a yelp left me as I quickly look at the little head poking in from the doorway. Her long blonde hair was messy and her eyes were dazed, like she just woke up. The kid fully stepped inside, tiredly rubbing her eyes as she yawns. She sleepily blinks at me before giving me a bright smile.
It pulled away every bit of fear in my body, making way to relief and immense joy. I opened my arms and laughed as Rose immediately jumped on the bed and crawled straight into my arms.
"Do you want to sleep with us tonight, sweetie?" I asked, to which she answered with a nod and another yawn. I gently placed her on the bed beside me and settled back down with her, my arm coming up to gently cradle her close to my chest. I settled my other arm below my pillow, accidentally disturbing the person sleeping on the other side.
As Mia tiredly opened her eyes, I moved my arm to gently caress her cheek, moving a strand of hair out of her face. Still as beautiful as ever, even when she just woke up. A smile creeped its way back to my face that she returned with a much more sleepy one.
"Go back to sleep, Mia, Rose just wanted to join us tonight" I explained, gesturing to the already slumbering girl between us. She let out a huff, probably would've been a laugh had she not been so tired these days. Was she like this as well back when she was pregnant with Rose? It's been so long, I couldn't recall properly.
She scooted closer to us, well, as close as her 8 months big pregnant stomach would let her. I gently pet her hair, lulling her back to sleep. I smiled one last time, gazing at the two, and soon to be three, most important people of my life. To think that I could've lost all of this if it wasn't for Chris and his team.. I don't know they did it, brought me back to life even after I've been in the explosion that killed that thing. They wouldn't tell me, confidential reasons they say.
I sighed as I get back to my position. It didn't matter how they brought me back, I am here now. With my family, safe and sound. And if someone tries to hurt my family again?
I'll make sure they'll pay for it.
This is my first time writing for this fandom so I hope I didn't butcher the characters!
Tell me what you think, I'd love to hear from you ๐๐
Vy Speaking
Just kidding, she's crying, sobbing like a baby at 9 AM in the morning, having just read the most beautiful story of Ethan, Mia and Rose - and their soon to make its way into the world baby. Hun, you could've given me a heads up, I would've equipped tissues ๐ญ
This is PURE ART and nothing less. I loved everything about it, every single word.
Thank you for giving me, the fandom, and Ethan the ending that we all deserved.
~ XOXO, Vy ๐
