Everything is loud but so quiet at the same time. 

All I hear is my own breath as I struggle to get air in. My own heartbeat pumping blood throughout my body. My hand gripping my weapon tightly. I stare in front of me, my opponent in the same position. We both can't fight any longer. 

"Just give up and I'll give you a swift painless death." They said in between their breaths. "Hah, after everything I did to survive I won't give up my life now." I replied to them. I let out a cry calling my beasts out. "It's no use to call those things here. My friends won't let any of them come in." They snickered. 

Before I could take another action they ran towards me slashing their sword. I stepped back but lost my balance as my tired body cannot keep up with my thoughts anymore. I fell on the ground as they pointed their weapon to my neck. "Any last words?" They asked me. "I won't let anyone control my own destiny, I will control my own life" I said to them. 

Using the weapon I had on hand and the last bit of energy I still had in me, I stabbed myself in the throat before they could. Till the very end I took control over my own life.
