In a moment of twisted clarity, she understood that there was only one way to end the cycle of violence and madness that had consumed them both. She took her blade, once her trusted ally, and turned it on herself. As the steel pierced her heart, she felt a strange peace, as if the chaos of the universe was finally quieting down.

As Jade's body crumpled beside Machine1, the silence was broken by a soft, almost imperceptible sound. A cat, the final survivor, padded over to the two bodies, sniffing at the blood-stained ground. It meowed once, twice, then without warning, its small body exploded, leaving nothing but a splatter of red on the desolate earth.

And in that moment, the asylum fell silent, its walls absorbing the last echoes of life within its cursed confines.
