This was the worst possible scenario. How had neither of you thought of this? You two were the best in the entire regiment! And yet, here the two of you are, half dead laying all too still in the bloodied grass. Zeke -- how had neither of you considered that he'd want to die?
He had a lapse in judgment. You both did. Levi didn't have many regrets, but this was quickly becoming one of them. You didn't even know if he was breathing.
Fortunately, you gained consciousness before Levi. One look at Levi and you were sure -- he was dead. He had to have been. There was more blood than skin. It wouldn't be humanly possible that he was alive. Still, that didn't stop you from dragging your injured body through the grass, smearing your blood and flesh in the wilting foliage.
