2:35 am.

It had been hours since Leon tried to enter the dreamland.

Tossing and turning around like a fish on the beach, his body refused to stay still. Thoughts swarmed his brain, imitating the annoying buzzing of thousands of wasps. He couldn't think straight as his past was reaching out in the darkness to wrap its hands around his throat and choke him. To knock the wind out of his lungs and let the void consume his vision.

It never came, but the feeling was still creeping in the back of his mind. Getting a shiver down the spine like a spider's legs making a contact with the ground.

Sleeping wasn't something he was good at. Unlike Freddy, who almost always got 8 full hours of sleep and even more, Leon was close to being an insomniac. Rather than getting his sanity together through rest, the hitman's brain replayed all of his mistakes, that he had made in his life, over and over again like a broken record.

The most vivid of nightmares for him was the face of his late younger brother, Joseph.

Leon would never forget the beaten up body of his brother as the sparks from his once energetic eyes slowly vanished, leaving a lifeless corpse in the assassin's pale hands.

Leon cursed the day he took the loan from the loan shark. He cussed at the fact, that he was forced to commit heinous crimes in order to repay that debt...

And it was all done, so his sweet brother could have a better life.

To study in the music school, that he wanted.

To have everything in the world...

Only for this to backfire at Leon with the might of an asteroid.

The night the sniper found his brother beaten up to a pulp near his home, because the loan shark members wanted revenge...

And instead of Leon taking the punishment... his brother met with an inevitable demise.

Lungs barely rising up, while making a contact with the broken ribs, as the sibling's heart pumped up a few final and weak heartbeats.

' Try to live a good life, Leon. '

The last words from Joseph's mouth before the bright-eyed man succumbed to his wounds.

Leon blamed himself nonstop, even to this day.

13 years later and his heart still felt like it was pierced by hundreds of needles coated with the world's deadliest venom. The toxins eating through his nerves as the feelings were suffocating the hitman.

The times he had seen his brother haunting his dreams. Bloody, swollen right eye, broken limbs and bended in unnatural ways, reaching uncanny valley territory. The cold stare given to Leon from Joseph, one that made him cry on the floor after it for hours and curse his life away. The sniper's body shaking like a leaf as a result from this.

Little by little the hitman built the tall walls, which contained his emotions in one place. A permanent poker face plastered on, masking his true expressions, and the sniper keeping quiet to himself.
