Life is a funny thing. Delicate enough that one small piece of metal can rip it away so easily. That's what I thought, as I lay on that cold concrete floor, heart struggling to beat around the bullethole in my chest.
I could feel their panic, the men I loved, who were tied to me. What else could they feel, as our marks dragged them down with my death?
It was too late. As the frantic fluttering of my heart slowed, as my eyesight failed and my life faded away, my last thought was that I wasn't ready to die.
