What remained of him stood up.
His body could barely be considered alive anymore. Much of his flesh had been bitten away as though a swarm of piranhas had torn into him. Raw skin hung from his ruined body, broken bones protruded from several places, small sections of intestine dangled from his abdomen, and his face was torn beyond recognition.
His throat gaped open as he struggled to breathe, producing a wet, broken sound with every breath.
"VOMMM!!"
Lily immediately vomited as she saw the disgusting sight, something far more horrifying than anything she had ever witnessed in her life.
Allen was frozen, unable to look away from the horror before him.
Aether's calm eyes slowly settled upon Jonathan.
His eyes trembled.
Tears began to gather within them as memories from the past resurfaced.
Even if it had all been a lie...
Even if it had all been fake...
Even if every single moment had been manipulated...
For him, those had been his precious memories.
