Author's Note: Written at the bus stop the other night. It was creepy out and I needed something to distract me from it. Unbeta'd so all mistakes are mine. All feedback is welcomed.

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.
