With that deafening bang, it all comes back to me:

I remember that I was trying to protect her. She was everything to me, ever since I first laid my eyes on her. I promised myself I would never let anything happen to her. I already lost enough, I cannot lose any more.

Then, she started doing things that were dangerous. Things that weren't safe with people I didn't approve of. It was not right! It was not fair!!

It came to the point where I had to use... extra measures to keep her away from them. I needed to keep her safe, so I shut us out from the world. She is my world now.

But they didn't approve. They demanded that she be free! She can't be safe if she's free! They... they don't have the right to take her!!

Next thing I knew, I was laying there, a tiny bleeding hole in my chest. It was nowhere near as large as the hole in my heart. This was it.

She walked away, her eyes covered by them. Yes, she shouldn't have to see me like this. As my vision gets darker, I barely manage to whisper one last sentence:

"Mommy will always love you..."

As I lay there, dying among the corpses of men and demons alike, the sobbing voice of a woman grounded me for a moment longer.

I coughed, blood dripping from the corner of my mouth. Struggling, I forced my eyes open.

“Damian…” Mary cried, her heartbreaking sobs echoing through the silence of the night.

I gazed up at the full moon, the soft wind caressing my blonde hair.

I was dying.

That much was certain. I knew that with my skill and power, I could have escaped—I could have lived. But I couldn’t do that.

If I did, she would die. And deep within myself, I knew I couldn’t live with that.

She was my heart, the reason I was alive. Without her, I was nothing.

There was no “me” in a world without her. A future without her would be an endless nightmare.

“Don’t go… please…” she begged, clutching my chest.

I looked down at her, her once-bright yellow dress now stained with my blood.

“Mary…” I whispered weakly.

“Yes… Damian… I’m here…” she sobbed. “I’m here… don’t go… someone will come… I know they will… please, just hang on… please… don’t…”

“I love you,” I said aloud, a carefree smile on my face.

There it was—the one thing I had struggled to say. The words I had wrestled with for years now flowed effortlessly from my lips.

“No… no… no…” she pleaded. “You can’t leave me… not after saying that… you can’t!” She cried out, her voice breaking.

“You son of a bitch! Please… I want to answer that… I want to show you how much you mean to me… after all these years… do you think I don’t know how you feel?”

“Stay… I love you too… I’ve been waiting…”

Her voice slowly faded, growing distant as my consciousness began to slip away.

How regrettable.
