The smell of blood lingered throughout the air as the only thing that can only be seen in the battlefield are the bodies of your foes, your comrades, and Alejandro, the bleeding Alejandro in your hands.

With a tight grip, you held him close to yours as you hid in an abandoned building not far, reassuring him safety.

"Just wait, just wait, Colonel.. Reinforcements will surely come.." You tried to calm yourself down, yet you were clearly panicking.

"No, no, go save yourself. I'm going to be fine." Alejandro cupped your cheeks in his hands with a weak smile despite the blood covering him.
