The paper slowly flutters to the floor and is stained with blood. If anyone looks closely the soldier is wearing a dog tag with only the name Trav Brown legible anymore. After a period of time the soldier appears to be riddled with bullets with blood gushing out of his body before falling face first on the ground the blood beginning to pool around the body as the body continues to bleed the sounds of a child crying can be heard and another look at the body reveals Trav curled up and crying.

The creature's claws rip through the poor, defenseless doctor's coat, opening deep gashes in their gut. It bares its fangs to lunge for the killing blow, but the doctor looks up at the attacker. Their eyes filed not with utter terror at their imminent demise, only a look of disappointment and pity. Touched, the monster hesitates. . .
