The Winner

Cool to the touch, the thoughts burned when they reached their way inside. He can feel a bit of himself giving way, wanting only to put one foot in front of the other. A promise of no more pain is a fortune. But he can’t.

He mustn’t…

…let Scorpius win.

If the half-breed wins, then - John doesn’t know. Doesn’t know himself at this second. The whispering voice is a beacon shining brightly.

The end of the tunnel.

He takes a step. And another.

The distance isn’t so great.

Murmurs take form and are more clear.

Clearer than at any other time.

A black smile greets him at the end and the cacophony of sound, explosions that sing his name to not give up fall away until there is just - Scorpius.

As promised the pain, his will, fades to nothing as he is left standing at his tormentor’s side.
