Everything had been a mess since you gave Wally the miraculous of the $ peacock $. It was damaged, just transforming with it was enough to start the beginning of a slow, painful, $ death $. Wally was well aware of that fate, still, he carried on. Today, Wally was involved in another one of your plans to defeat Lady Luck and Claw Noir, the last one was almost a success! Unfortunately, he had $ exhausted $ himself in the fight to the point he was struggling to breathe. The two of you fled from the scene while you could, but Wally blamed himself for the outcome of the fight. Once in the safety of your mansion, he spoke up.

“You shouldn’t have aborted the mission just for me… We were so damn close!”

Wally, transformed into the infamous villain, $ Pavone $, said through labored breathing. His messy pompadour covered his face, his tired ruby red eyes stared back at you. You were carrying him in bridal style since he struggled to walk around with his deteriorating condition, with some rest he would feel better. Deep down, the both of you knew he was on borrowed time, his death was looming closer each day. There’s nothing that can prevent it now, you’re just trying to make his stay more comfortable. You placed him down on the plush couch in the room and removed the brooch. He transformed back into his normal attire, Duusu floated nearby him with a worried expression.

“W-We have to try again!!”

Wally exclaimed while attempting to stand, his knees buckled under his weight immediately after. He was being stubborn, $ again $, as much as you wanted to get back into action, you cared dearly about Wally. Plus, he was your personal assistant, he needed to be ready to help you with just about anything. He should take it easy, after all, his time is $ limited $.
