♤♡◇♧

The boat rocked senselessly throughout the waters as the monster closed in. It dives under you again causing a light bulb to appear above your head.

"Leon, does this boat have an anchor?" You asked loudly, holding for dear life as Leon attempted to drive opposite to the raging monster.

"Why is an anchor important right now?" He inquires.

Suddenly,  the boat was pulled in the opposite direction, almost knocking you into the deadly waters.

"Fuck! He's hooked to the anchor!" You yelled, you desperately looked around for something, not wanting to waste bullets. As your eyes scanned the boat, Leon was in front of you, holding a spear.

"We use these."

The boat was pulled again. This time both Leon and you fell atop the other. Opening your eyes, you realize Leon took the brunt of your weight. You quickly snapped out of it when Leon launched you to your feet. You hastily grabbed one of the spears from him.

"How the hell are we gonna kill this thing? Its about the size of a whale!" You quipped. Leon looked over at you, "we have to wait for it to come to us." You had sworn the look of forced pride on your face shredded into disappointment, then fear.

"I'm sorry wh-"

"--Too late, look out!" Leon yelled interrupting you as to warn you of the massive pile of flesh you thought at first was a shark.

Leon threw his spear nailing it right in its mouth, picking up another one before you forced your spear to fly.

"Keep going!" He yelled. The both of you continued this. Waiting for it and then striking once it got too close. This was a constant, until finally one last hit simultaneously caused the monster to bellow in agony while flailing about the water leaving huge waves in its wake.

Then, it finally screamed its way into the deep sea before sinking to the bottom.

"Well, we survived." Leon looked over at you, remembering your pessimism from earlier. You hesitated before finally letting out a laugh. One that's never been heard by his ears before.

"Yea, I'll be calling this the old river of the monster whale." You spoke jokingly. Leon let out a small smirk before grabbing your hand and helping you to land. Once on the docks you took a deep breath, walking further than you had thought.

"Argh!" You heard Leon cry out, turning on your heels and running over to the now hunched over man. You tried holding onto him realizing he was going down, or so you thought. Leon pushed passed you and into a cabin that was right up ahead.

"Fuck ahh!" Leon's cries were worse and now he couldn't stand.

"Leon! What do I do?!" You cried out, worried your partner won't heal as quickly as you do. He finally stopped making noise as his body slumped onto the old wooden floor. Your mind told you to panic, and you did for a moment. However, you realized that he's still breathing. Meaning he's only lost consciousness for now.

"Dont worry, you'll be fine." You spoke to him softly not knowing if he could hear you or not. You lunged his body up by his underarms, struggling at first causing you to become irritated.

"Goddammit just lift him!" At that moment you lifted him as if he were a feather and placed him onto the cot you'd seen in the corner. Once he was placed, you sat on the floor beside him, back against the side of the cot. You ended up losing track of time, falling asleep in your arms.
