Leo's breath was ragged, his pulse pounding as he fought his way through the crumbling reality that threatened to cave in around him. The ground beneath his feet quaked with the sinister tremors of the Abyss's growing influence. Everywhere he looked, the world seemed to bend and fracture, as if reality itself was tearing apart at the seams. Shadows slithered over the horizon, a dark, hungry tide, seeking to swallow the world whole.
"Stay with me, Ava," Leo muttered through gritted teeth, his voice barely audible above the chaos. His hands clenched into fists as he surveyed the wreckage. He could feel her—somewhere out there, trapped, struggling to break free from the Abyss that clung to her like a second skin. But the distance between them felt insurmountable, a chasm that grew wider with every passing second.
