Apollo's consciousness began to flicker, like a candle reaching the end of its light. Yet, when it seemed like darkness would consume him entirely, a bright light filled the room, as though breaking an illusion.
"Friend, you have to try this fish!"
Layla crouched down next to Apollo, excitedly holding a rainbow colored fish in front of him.
Apollo weakly turned to look at Layla, hardly able to keep his eyes open.
"...Layla."
His lips parted ever so slightly while his voice trailed off.
Layla giggled.
"Yeah! Now try this fish, friend! It's super tasty!"
She proceeded to crudely shove the fish into Apollo's mouth.
As for Apollo, he anxiously tried to bite down because of how hungry he was. However, the rainbow colored fish struggled violently enough to leap out of Apollo's mouth, and onto the snow.
