All of Sherman Avenue was on fire, from one end to the other. If they're lucky, maybe the fire won't spread to the next street. But either way, Sherman was lost...
Edilio: "We should save children trapped at home!"
Sam didn't answer...
Edilio: "Sam!"
Sam: "I asked Him to let me die. I prayed to the God that Astrid likes so much and I said, 'God, if you exist, kill me. Don't let me feel this pain anymore'..."
Edilio was silent...
Sam: "You don't understand..."
Sam said so quietly that he doubted whether his friend could hear him over the noise and crackle of the fire raging everywhere...
Sam: "There's no other way with these people. You have to kill them all. Zil. Caine. Drake. You just have to kill them. So now... I'll start with Zil and his gang... You can come with me or not."
He moved in the direction where Zill, Hank and The Human Crew had fled... Edilio didn't even flinch....
Edilio watched Sam leave with a sense of impending doom. What chance did they have if Sam went crazy? What opportunities did he, Edilio, have to fix anything?
Edilio: "If I could... If anyone could..."
He couldn't see what was going on around him very well. He heard screams and laughter here and there. But he could only see smoke and flames... Gunshots rang out again and again. He had no idea where... There were kids running away everywhere. So brightly lit that they looked like they were on fire. And then they disappeared in a cloud of smoke...
