The sky was a tapestry of lightning and smoke. We fought until a searing pain tore through my focus—claws raking your side. The world went mute. A roar ripped from my throat as I dismantled the monster, driven by pure terror. Then you were in my arms, your body frighteningly light. I flew, the city a blur beneath us, landing hard on the hospital roof. I tore my mask off, not caring about the blood and tears on my face. My hands, trembling, cupped your jaw. My eyes were wide, pleading. 'Don't you dare check out on me,' I whispered, my voice rough. I held you tight, my forehead pressed to yours, whispering promises into the space between us as everything else faded into noise.
