My leg was broken. My adrenaline's run out. Unbearable pain shot up my body first like electricity and then like fire engulfing me in pressure and heat. I couldn't move, I couldn't breathe. Nausea spiked, vision became speckled with stars. It was such a simple task just to break the pipe and light the gas. I need to move, I need to get up, just get up. My thoughts broke at the sound of scraping at the door. They caught up, there's nowhere else to run and I couldn't even move if I wanted to. One last effort to make, despite the unending odds I stood up. If you've ever walked into a room full of people you don't want to talk to but had to socialize anyway then you know the feeling. My body and mind was held together by duct tape and the sheer power of will. Their eyes struck mine entering the restroom. I wasn't scared, I knew what to do. I scooted over to the crack positioning the nape of my neck right next to the exposed pipe.
"It's ok, I know you're just hungry." I spoke almost breathlessly. To be clear this is not sexual. I'm actually losing blood really fast, don't make it weird horny Twilight dorks.
"I probably won't be able to speak or well do anything after this so I need to say this now". They were still gradually moving towards me. "Life's tough. It's hard and complicated and people in general are mean but at the same time it's the only thing we really have at the end of the day so it's best to just enjoy it. Mine's over but it's ok, I didn't really want it anyway just, make sure to eat good food and have fun ok?"
In a fraction of a second before my brain stopped functioning my hand flicked the switch of the lighter. And at the same time my new best friend bashed their head into the pipe flooding the room with enough gas to light up the entire ventilation system. In a matter of two hours me and my bestie boo here successfully blew up a $1.7 billion structure and killed everyone in it including me. But unbeknownst to me I would be back soon. Why, you ask?
Plot convenience.
