Jane saw Aric's actions and she could not help but call out or him to try and stop him.
"Aric, no!"
However, it was far too late. She could see that Aric's chest was dripping with blood while it had a huge gaping hole where his heart used to be.
Aric coughed up blood as he looked at Maverick. He could see that even the monster was surprised to see Aric's sacrifice. It was not part of the monster's plan.
"How did you know?" the monster said as he looked at Aric.
Aric just smiled as blood dripped from his mouth. His face was white as paper as he tried to muster up the strength to speak.
"It was only when you transformed to be my father. It is exactly what is in my nightmares," Aric said as he looked at the monster's face.
