night four - kill log.

[foxhounds]

Who: Killers and Souza Samonji
When: The fourth night
Where: The jungles of Ship-Trap Island

.. I will.

[ she feels like she's intruding now, watching him slowly pass.. it was painful for her. she was disgusted with herself, to know that she was the one who did this to him, and still he remains as steady as he had been a few minutes ago.

she stays at the edge of the small clearing, clinging to a tree, looking away. she'll let these final moments be his and only his. ]
