Drip!
The rain started to wash over the battlefield. And yet, he still did not move from his spot, unheeding both the hail of water and the bullets flying around him. He kneeled in utter silence as the world deafened around him. His visor flickered eerily as he stared at the unresponsive body in his embrace.
He could only focus on how the water ran down her face as her eyes were closed shut. His hands were smeared with crimson, her crimson stain, as he ran his thumb over her cheeks, having a semblance of a hope that her ruby-red eyes would reveal themselves to him once again. But when she did not respond in any way, he grew even more silent.
He gently took her head and pressed his helmet against her forehead, as if he was trying to reach out to her in any way possible. He shifted in his position as his helmet tilted forward ever so slightly. He took her in his embrace and he hugged her with all his might.

JUST FUCKING WHY?!?
You.
You held back.
They wanted war.
Yet you still held back.
Why?
...
Why do you deny your own nature?
...
Remember.
We are but the faces of the same coin.
We are one and the same.
...
They wanted war.
Then give them war.
