I...I could only save three of them. But there were so many more of them down there...all of whom I had no choice but to leave them to die, because I just wasn't strong enough to save them all. Who knows how long they'd been suffering...and now, just like that, they're dead, without ever getting the chance to get back to the lives they once knew.
"Hey, chin up, kid...you did good, alright?" Mike placed a hand on my shoulder, as he walked over to me, "There was nothing more you could do once a Monster that big showed up, don't be too hard on yourself."

"About that...hey, tell me, was it my fault that it showed up in the first place?" I inquired, as I met his gaze.
"Uh, n-no, of course not-!" He began to deny, after looking a bit taken aback initially.
"Cut the crap...be honest, was it my fault?" I interrupted, as I met his gaze with a grimace.
