00:00It was not until the day I gave birth to the child that he broke my legs, threw me into
00:05the deep sea, and left the fish and shrimp to eat my internal organs.
00:09You lured the pirates here and killed her just to be jealous and compete for favor.
00:15Since you are so keen in competing with her for favor, then I will make you die in the exact
00:19same way as her.
00:21In my previous life, when the pirates launched a sneak attack, my husband, a Navy lieutenant, took all the men
00:28out to sea to celebrate Selena's birthday.
00:30I, who was pregnant, crawled out through the sewer to find him and brought all the men back to save
00:37the islanders.
00:38But his favorite mistress was caught by the pirates, who slipped through the net, humiliated, and died a tragic death.
00:44After my husband killed the pirates, he didn't say a single word.
00:48When I opened my eyes again, I was back to the day the pirates attacked.
00:53This time, if he still wants to protect his mistress, then let him be.
00:59When I was reborn, I watched the pirates speeding toward the shore on speedboats.
01:05A violent shiver ran through my body, and I pulled the alarm without a single second of hesitation.
01:11It blared across the entire island, but the only cruise ship on the island was gone.
01:17My best friend stumbled and threw herself in front of me, her voice cracking with tears.
01:22The pirates are attacking! Where have all the men gone? The cruise ship has gone too! What are we going
01:27to do?
01:31Before I could answer, the other women and children crowded around us.
01:35Dozens of helpless, terrified eyes locked onto me.
01:43James had taken every last man, every weapon we had, and sailed the cruise ship to the open sea to
01:50celebrate Selina's birthday.
01:52My mother-in-law snarled, shaking with rage.
01:55Has he lost his mind? He knows pirates can siege Coral Island at any time, and he dared to take
02:00every single Navy man with him?
02:02That homewrecker Selina! I always said she was no good!
02:06Parading around all weak and innocent, leading men on, and now look what's happened! She's gonna get us all killed!
02:12Her breakdown flipped a switch, and the women erupted into chaos all at once.
02:17They screamed curses at Selina, calling her shameless, raging about how she'd lured all their men away.
02:24As they spoke, the pirate speedboat drew near the shore.
02:28Panic exploded through the crowd.
02:30I fought to take control, yelling over the noise to tell them to stay calm, that everyone needed to take
02:36cover in the tunnels.
02:37Our island is far from the mainland, and we've long faced pirate raids.
02:42To protect ourselves, we built these tunnels to hide from attackers.
02:46The cramped tunnels were packed with women and children.
02:49All of us could hear the pirates leering laughs as they hunted for women across the island.
02:55Terror seeped into every single one of us.
02:58To save everyone, there's only one risky way out.
03:02We have to crawl through the sewer, then take the speedboat to call for backup.
03:06My mother grabbed my hand tightly.
03:08Vivian, you can drive a boat.
03:10Climb out to find James, and bring him and the men back to save us.
03:18I'm afraid James will refuse to come back with me, even if I beg him.
03:23Silence fell over the crowd instantly.
03:25Three months ago, Selina was rescued to this island by James.
03:29Ever since then, James has clung to her day and night.
03:33Under the pretense of taking care of her, they were inseparable.
03:37They went fishing together, trained side by side every single day.
03:41Island residents whispered behind their backs, saying James and Selina were meant to be a couple.
03:48James grew even more affectionate with her amid the gossip.
03:51Instead of keeping his distance, I've quarreled with him countless times, screaming to ask who his true wife was.
03:58But he turned a blind eye to my pain, only calling me petty and jealous.
04:02You're just jealous of Selina.
04:04Ever since Selina arrived on the island, our love had completely vanished.
04:09Just as everyone was trapped in despair, my sister-in-law stepped forward bravely.
04:14Let me handle this.
04:15I'm on good terms with all the Navy folks.
04:17What's more, Vivian's expecting.
04:19I couldn't face my brother if anything bad happened.
04:21With that, she jumped into the sewer without delay.
04:24She crawled through the cold, dirty, damp pipes, heading for the outside world.
04:31We huddled and cowered in the tunnel, silently praying we would never be discovered.
04:36But the pirates still found the tunnel entrance.
04:55Driven by twisted desire for the women inside, the pirates began smashing and bashing the iron door frantically.
05:03Loud, heavy banging echoed non-stop.
05:06Every woman turned deathly pale, overcome with terror.
05:11They could only beg for the men to hurry back and rescue them.
05:14Half an hour later, Lily crawled out of the sewer, covered in filth.
05:19The crowd cheered at the sight of her, certain she'd brought the men back for help.
05:23Yet their joy faded fast.
05:26She hung her head and wiped her tears, heartbroken.
05:30I'm sorry they refused to come back with me.
05:34My mother asked in a panic.
05:39Why won't they return?
05:41Their wives and children are all trapped in here.
05:46Sobbing harder, Lily bit her trembling lip and spoke.
05:50My brother called me a liar.
05:51He said pirates would never attack Coral Island.
05:54He accused me of lying alongside Vivian to trick him.
05:58and slapped me across the face.
06:02Spotting the clear handprint on her cheek, everyone blamed Selina for being a seductress.
06:07Selina's such a homewrecker.
06:09She'll get what's coming to her.
06:11James skipped out on his duty.
06:13He actually disregarded the safety of everyone just for the sake of a woman.
06:17The pirates had started using bombs to break through.
06:20In that instant, a deafening explosion boomed.
06:24The rusted iron door of the tunnel would only hold for one more hour at most.
06:40The old mother-in-law grabbed my arm.
06:43Her rough, calloused palms were soaked in cold sweat.
06:46Vivian, the safety of all the women and children depends on you.
06:50You must bring the reinforcements back.
06:52I nodded gently.
06:54Bearing my pregnancy bump and enduring the stench,
06:56I crawled laboriously out of the sewer to the ground.
06:59I hopped onto a spare speedboat and raced straight toward the nearest Starshark Island.
07:05When my speedboat rushed onto the beach of Starshark Island,
07:08I spotted several armed men already waiting there.
07:12The moment I recognized the leading man, my eyes lit up with hope.
07:16It was Mike, the Navy's second lieutenant.
07:20Didn't James take him out to sea?
07:22Why is he here?
07:23I had no time to wonder.
07:25I stumbled toward him, about to explain the pirate ambush.
07:29His gaze toward me was filled with disgust.
07:31He suddenly yanked me forward sharply.
07:34Vivian, how could you be such a repulsive woman?
07:38I stared at him blankly, confused by his words.
07:42The lieutenant specifically told me to wait for you here.
07:44He said you're consumed by jealousy, plotting with Lily.
07:48You'd go to other islands to spread lies.
07:51All just to ruin Selina's birthday ceremony.
07:53Hearing Mike's words, I trembled with rage.
07:56How cruel James could be.
07:58Just to stop me from fetching help,
08:00he actually sent men to block my only path.
08:03The pirates are already attacking Coral Island.
08:16Perhaps seeing my overly serious expression,
08:19a flicker of hesitation crossed his eyes.
08:22After all, his wife, children, and mother were all left behind on the island too.
08:26When Mike was about to contact James on the walkie-talkie,
08:30one of his men leaned in and whispered,
08:32If there really was a pirate raid, how would the lieutenant not know about it?
08:37His face showed blind, unwavering trust.
08:41James was a former soldier, blessed with sharp battlefield instinct and great leadership.
08:46He had led the islanders to fend off pirate attacks dozens of times.
08:50After barely a second of silence, Mike burst into mocking laughter.
08:54Vivian, you're quite the actress.
08:56You almost had me fooled.
08:57I know exactly what kind of man the lieutenant is.
09:00He's highly responsible and the leader of our navy.
09:03There's no way he'd lack such basic vigilance.
09:06His mocking words pierced my heart like a knife,
09:09tears welling up in my eyes.
09:11Every second wasted put the women in greater danger.
09:15I tried to rush toward the island recklessly,
09:17but Mike stepped forward and pinned me down in an instant.
09:20He then took out a rope and tied me up.
09:23With a cold expression,
09:25As long as I'm here, you're not going anywhere.
09:29Mike bound me tightly and tossed me straight onto the speedboat.
09:33Sitting on the speeding boat, I watched Starshark Island drift further away.
09:37I closed my eyes in utter despair.
09:40On the cruiser anchored in open water,
09:43the marines crowded around the deck and lit a fire.
09:46They sang Selena Happy Birthday.
09:49Wearing a glamorous gown,
09:51she danced with James right in the middle of the singing.
09:54I stared at the man who in my past life had me killed for his true love.
09:58A fire of pure hatred spread through my chest.
10:02The pirates were about to break through the bunker's steel door,
10:05and he was still here,
10:07dancing with the woman he loved.
10:09The moment they noticed me, they stopped.
10:12Selena walked up to me first.
10:14Vivian, this is all my fault.
10:17If it weren't my birthday today,
10:19you wouldn't have to run around spreading lies about pirates.
10:22As she spoke, she kept leaning against James' chest,
10:26but when she looked at me,
10:27a tiny mocking smile curled at the corner of her mouth.
10:31James gently stroked her hair.
10:33Baby, what did you do wrong?
10:35You're just innocent and sweet.
10:37Then he looked at me with utter disgust.
10:40She's the problem.
10:41She's so blinded by jealousy, she can't stand it.
10:44Just to fight for my attention,
10:46she'd actually play games with everyone's lives.
10:49I was too terrified for the people back on the island
10:51to even care about their mockery.
10:54I took a deep breath.
10:55I looked straight at him.
10:56The steel door on Coral Island won't hold much longer.
10:59If the pirates break into that bunker,
11:02every wife and child on that island will be dragged out and violated.
11:06But the only answer I got was a brutal slap across the face.
11:11Vivian, let me make this very clear.
11:13The more you pull stunts like this,
11:15the more I absolutely hate you.
11:17I struggled.
11:18But no matter how hard I fought the ropes,
11:21I could not break free.
11:22I was so desperate I was sobbing.
11:25If he refused to go back, fine.
11:27But why stop me from getting help from the neighboring islands?
11:30Any later, and it really would be a massacre!
11:34I begged him over and over.
11:36But James did not untie me.
11:38To punish you for lying, I will tie you up all night.
11:42He only said coldly.
11:43Then he wrapped an arm around Selena's slim waist
11:46and walked back to the fire.
11:47Right in the middle of everyone singing,
11:49the two of them started dancing again.
11:52Tears streamed down my face.
11:54I watched them completely waste the last chance to save our people.
11:58It was over.
11:59Selena's birthday party went on until dawn.
12:02Only then did everyone finally stop celebrating.
12:05They fired up the cruiser and headed back to the dock.
12:08On the way back, they were still laughing and joking around.
12:11But when the ship pulled in,
12:13the only thing waiting for them was a landscape of smoking ruins
12:17and half-naked bodies scattered everywhere.
12:19The entire island was eerily silent.
12:22The bunker reeked of iron and rot.
12:25I stood at the threshold, my fingers white as I gripped the doorframe,
12:29tears streaming down my face.
12:31This shelter was supposed to be filled with women, children, and the elderly.
12:36Now, it was nothing but a graveyard of severed limbs.
12:39Everything was over.
12:41Mike stepped into a pool of blood that hadn't even dried yet.
12:44A severed finger was floating in it.
12:47There was an old-fashioned thimble still on it.
12:50He recognized it instantly.
12:52His mother always used that thimble when she sewed.
12:55How could this happen?
12:57When he knelt to pick up the blood-stained thimble,
13:00his knees slammed into the concrete.
13:02He collapsed right there, sobbing.
13:04His voice shook so hard it barely sounded human.
13:08One of the younger men fell to his knees, too.
13:11His trembling hand picked up a tiny hair clip.
13:14It was his little sister's pink strawberry barrette.
13:17She wore it every single day.
13:19He clenched it in his fist and pressed it to his forehead.
13:22His shoulders shook violently.
13:25It's my fault.
13:26I shouldn't have left you.
13:27I shouldn't have left you.
13:30Regret spread through the bunker like a plague.
13:33Some men punched the walls.
13:35Some collapsed to the floor,
13:37staring into nothing as they repeated their family members' names.
13:40Others clung to each other and wailed.
13:42Their tears mixed with the blood on their faces under the flickering lights.
13:46I leaned against the wall and slowly slid down.
13:49My chest hurt so badly I could barely breathe.
13:53Something warm landed on the back of my hand.
13:55Only then did I realize I was crying so hard I couldn't stop.
13:59Looking at the horror in front of us,
14:02Selina choked out a sob.
14:04Tears streamed down her face.
14:06She looked like she was too devastated to go on.
14:10How could the pirates attack Coral Island today?
14:13Did they know it was my birthday, too?
14:15She added it softly,
14:17just loud enough for everyone to hear.
14:19That sentence hit the room like gasoline on an open flame.
14:23James snapped his head up and glared at me.
14:26You knew the pirates were coming, didn't you?
14:28You chose today on purpose.
14:30All because you were jealous.
14:32You've been targeting Selina since the day she got here.
14:36And now, just to frame her,
14:38you were willing to sacrifice everyone?
14:40I stared at his twisted face
14:42and suddenly felt something close to absurdity.
14:45To protect Selina,
14:46he was actually pinning a massacre on me.
14:48Then a slap cracked across my face.
14:50Pain exploded through my skin.
14:52I stumbled backward and slammed into a metal locker.
14:55The taste of iron filled my mouth.
14:58Mike grabbed my collar.
14:59His eyes were bloodshed.
15:00Was it you, you bitch?
15:02Did you lure the pirates here
15:03just to get back at the lieutenant?
15:05My vision blurred with tears.
15:07I shook my head.
15:08Then he threw me to the ground.
15:09His knee crushed into my stomach.
15:11The back of my head slammed against the concrete.
15:14Everything went black for a second.
15:16Do you even know what you're doing?
15:18How many times has Vivian tutored our kids?
15:21Last time the pirates came,
15:22who carried the wounded for miles?
15:24You don't get it.
15:25She brought them here.
15:26Otherwise, why is she the only one left alive?
15:28My mom, my wife, my child.
15:31How could you do this?
15:32More and more people chose to believe him.
15:34The crowd slowly closed in around me.
15:36Every pair of bloodshot eyes was filled with pure paint.
15:40They kept coming closer.
15:42I shrank back on instinct,
15:43wrapping both arms around my stomach.
15:45Right when I thought I was about to die,
15:47James stepped through the crowd
15:48and stood in front of me again.
15:50James came walking in from behind the crowd.
15:52The Marines automatically stepped aside for him.
15:55He was wearing a crisp new outfit.
15:57Even his boots were polished spotless.
15:59He looked completely different from everyone else covered in blood and filth.
16:03I was curled up in the corner against the wall.
16:05My fingers twisted helplessly in my clothes.
16:08My knuckles had gone white.
16:10The baby inside me seemed to sense the danger.
16:13A small kick pressed against my stomach.
16:16James crouched down in front of me
16:18and brushed the messy hair off my forehead.
16:22Vivian.
16:23He sighed my name.
16:24His fingers touched my swollen cheek.
16:27Does it hurt?
16:28His breath was warm against my ear,
16:30but every word out of his mouth was poison.
16:33Even if you are my wife,
16:34you killed all these people.
16:36I can't let you live.
16:37He was here to condemn me himself.
16:40Once he pinned the blame on me
16:41for luring the pirates here
16:42and killing everyone's wives and children,
16:45they could execute me openly.
16:47And just like that,
16:48no one would blame him anymore
16:50for taking all the Marines away
16:52and leaving the island defenseless.
16:54When James' boot slammed into my stomach,
16:57I heard something inside me break.
16:59I curled up on the ground.
17:01My nails scraped into the cracks in the concrete.
17:04Warm blood poured down between my legs.
17:07My shaking hand went to my stomach.
17:10The place that had once curved gently with life
17:13was now terrifyingly flat.
17:15Five months.
17:1617 tiny kicks.
17:18All those nights I whispered
17:20to the ultrasound photo in the dark.
17:22All of it turned to blood under one kick.
17:24Selena still stood there,
17:26adding fuel to the fire.
17:27Vivian, you went too far.
17:29James and I got a little close.
17:31But you've always been the one he couldn't get over.
17:34You should never have made a joke like this
17:36in such a cruel way.
17:38She blinked,
17:38and one perfect tear rolled down her face.
17:41Just as James lifted a hand
17:43to order the Marines to deal with me...
17:47Stop!
17:49A familiar voice rang out,
17:51and everyone turned.
17:52Lily was walking toward us
17:54with a huge group of children behind her.
17:56Through Lily, they learned the truth.
17:58To protect the children,
17:59Evelyn and all the women
18:01chose to fight the pirates to the death.
18:03They used their own lives
18:05to carve out a blood-soaked path of survival
18:07for Lily and the kids.
18:09The Marines rushed forward, frantic,
18:11grabbing their children into their arms.
18:13The children survived,
18:14but the mothers and grandmothers who died
18:17were never coming back.
18:19James went pale.
18:20His lips trembled,
18:21but he could not say a word.
18:24We didn't die.
18:25Lily turned to the Marines
18:27and pointed straight at her brother.
18:28Her eyes burned with hatred.
18:30If you hadn't taken all the Marines away,
18:33none of this would have happened.
18:34You and Selena killed everyone!
18:39Mike stared at James with bloodshot eyes.
18:42Lieutenant,
18:43didn't you say Lily was just being jealous?
18:45Didn't you say she was making it all up?
18:48Didn't you say we were supposed to ignore her
18:50and focus on Selena's birthday?
18:52Why is my mother dead?
18:54Why is my wife gone?
18:57The Marines who had lost their families
18:58started walking toward James,
19:00step by step.
19:01James' face turned white as paper.
19:04I looked at the blood all over the ground
19:07and tears slid down my face.
19:10I had been reborn.
19:11I changed my own fate,
19:13but I still could not save everyone.
19:16The furious men charged James and Selena
19:19all at once.
19:21Their screams came one after another,
19:23louder and louder without end.
19:25I should have felt satisfied,
19:27but all I felt was sorrow and bitterness.
19:30The next second,
19:31I blacked out.
19:32When I opened my eyes again,
19:34the sharp smell of disinfectant
19:36hit my nose.
19:37Outside the window,
19:39I could hear buildings collapsing
19:40now and then,
19:41and each crash sent dust
19:43rising into the air.
19:44I leaned against a hospital bed
19:46that felt like it might fall apart
19:48any second.
19:49The metal frame creaked under the weight.
19:51The wound in my abdomen
19:53throbbed faintly,
19:54and the flatness beneath the bandages
19:56reminded me that the life inside me
19:59was gone forever.
20:01Mike was kneeling ramrod straight
20:03on the floor,
20:04his forehead pressed against the cold dirt.
20:06The second he heard me move,
20:08he jerked his head up.
20:10The man who once looked so vicious
20:11was now covered in tears and snot.
20:14He slammed his head into the ground.
20:18I'm not even human.
20:20I'm sorry, Vivian.
20:24Your face is so pale.
20:26Lily waved her hand in front of my face
20:28and draped her tattered parka over me.
20:30I came back to myself,
20:32realizing my nails had already
20:34dug deep into my palm.
20:36Outside,
20:37the wet sea wind
20:38blew in through the window
20:39with a metallic smell.
20:41For one sickening second,
20:43it blended with the blood-soaked memory
20:45of the concrete floor.
20:47Mike was still apologizing.
20:48I'm sorry for you.
20:49I really deserve to die.
20:51That's enough.
20:53I lifted a weak hand to stop him.
20:57You were trying to protect everyone, too.
20:59Before I could finish,
21:01Lily smacked the back of his head.
21:03Oh, now you know how to apologize?
21:06You were real tough
21:07when you were backhanding her,
21:08weren't you?
21:09Mike did not dodge.
21:11Instead, he grabbed my hand
21:12and slapped it against his own face.
21:14His cheekbone hit my knuckles
21:16so hard it hurt.
21:18Something hot ran down
21:19through our fingers.
21:20I could not tell if it was his tears
21:22or the blood from my palm.
21:23I deserved to die.
21:24I was blind.
21:26I...
21:27I knew the moment my baby
21:29turned into a pool of blood
21:30on that floor
21:31would scar him
21:32for the rest of his life,
21:33but I was still drowning
21:35in the pain
21:35of losing my child.
21:38At that moment,
21:39I had no comfort left to give.
21:41I sat there for a long time
21:43before I finally spoke.
21:45Mike, can you do me a favor?
21:48I want James and Selena dead.
21:50He looked up at me
21:51with blood-red eyes
21:52and nodded without hesitation.
21:54I'm in.
21:55Lily was the first to jump up.
21:58That kind of heartless animal
21:59still thinks he deserves
22:00to be the lieutenant?
22:02How is anyone supposed
22:03to trust him with their lives?
22:05Mike stood up in silence
22:06and pulled out
22:06a blood-stained tactical knife.
22:08It had been James'
22:09birthday gift to him.
22:10He dropped it to the floor
22:11and crushed it under his boot
22:12until it snapped.
22:13Leave it to me.
22:15That day,
22:16the Marines did not kill
22:17James and Selena.
22:18They beat them
22:19half to death first.
22:20After that,
22:21they locked them up.
22:22Even without me saying a word,
22:24they had already decided
22:25the two of them
22:26would die brutally.
22:27Mike led a group of Marines in,
22:29dragging the filthy,
22:31broken pair forward with ropes.
22:33Then they threw them
22:34into the pit
22:35where the island
22:36kept its wild animals.
22:37Mike!
22:39Vivian!
22:39You can't do this to me!
22:41I saved your lives before!
22:43If it weren't for me,
22:44you all would have died
22:45in the very first pirate raid!
22:48I'm your savior!
22:49James screamed like a madman.
22:52He did not want to die.
22:53He wanted to use that old debt
22:55to force everyone
22:56into sparing him.
22:57Selena was a sobbing mess,
22:59tears streaming down her face.
23:02Vivian,
23:03I know I was wrong.
23:04I shouldn't have fought you
23:05over a man.
23:06I'll give James back to you.
23:07Please let me go.
23:08I don't want to die.
23:09Please!
23:11You didn't want to die?
23:13Did the others want to die?
23:14I listened to both of them beg.
23:16My face stayed cold
23:17and felt nothing.
23:19When no one spoke up for him,
23:21humiliation flashed
23:23across James' face,
23:24but it quickly twisted
23:25into something uglier.
23:27Then he turned to Lily.
23:28Lily!
23:29I'm your brother!
23:30Didn't dad tell you
23:31before he died
23:32to listen to me?
23:33So now you're turning
23:34against your own family?
23:35Lily suddenly laughed.
23:38Listen to you?
23:39She pulled something
23:40from her tactical pouch
23:41and threw it in his face.
23:43It was our mother's pocket.
23:44watch.
23:45Inside the cracked glass
23:47was a yellowed note.
23:48Lily.
23:49Be like Vivian.
23:50Never be like your brother.
23:51James recoiled
23:53like he had been burned.
23:54By then,
23:54the crowd had already
23:56closed in.
23:56The old Marines
23:57who had once supported him
23:59the most
23:59were now looking at him
24:00with nothing
24:01but icy disappointment.
24:03What do you mean
24:03turning against family?
24:04You really have no idea
24:06how much Vivi did for us,
24:07do you?
24:08Lily's voice shook.
24:09Then at least remember this.
24:11Last month,
24:12when the pirates attacked,
24:13Vivi was pregnant
24:13and still held the south gate
24:15with everyone else.
24:16And where was your Selena?
24:18Every time happened,
24:19she turned got a bank.
24:20She always hid in the safest place
24:21and never came out.
24:23Lily hurled a bloodstained phone.
24:25The screen cracked on impact,
24:26but the footage still played.
24:27Late at night in the clinic,
24:28I was asleep at the desk.
24:30Surrounded by anti-radiation medicine,
24:32I had stayed up
24:33all night preparing.
24:34In a storm,
24:35I was reinforcing
24:36the eastern wall alone,
24:37drenched to the bone.
24:38When food ran short,
24:40I secretly slipped my own share
24:41into an orphan's backpack.
24:44James went pale.
24:46His lips trembled,
24:47but no words came out.
24:48No one listened to their begging.
24:50The marines shoved both of them
24:52straight into the cage.
24:53The second the wild animals
24:55saw living people,
24:56they exploded
24:57with terrifying energy.
24:58They lunged.
24:59Selena screamed,
25:01but she could do nothing.
25:02A tiger knocked her to the ground.
25:05His expression changed instantly.
25:08He tried to run,
25:09but a wild wolf lunged at him
25:11and sank its teeth into his calf.
25:13His skin started turning gray
25:14right in front of our eyes.
25:18Help.
25:19Help me.
25:20For the child's sake.
25:22James dropped to his knees
25:23and crawled toward me.
25:24His eyes were already clouding over.
25:26My finger trembled on the trigger.
25:29For a split second,
25:30I saw that night in the delivery room
25:32from my last life again.
25:33His twisted face
25:35in the middle of the chaos
25:36as he demanded
25:37that I pay with my life.
25:39James crawled closer.
25:41The flesh on his lower leg
25:42had already been torn open
25:44to the bone.
25:45His cloudy eyes
25:46widened in terror.
25:48A broken rasp
25:49came out of his throat.
25:50His ruined hand
25:51dragged across the ground,
25:53leaving a long streak of blood.
25:55Vivian,
25:57save me.
25:59The barrel of my gun
26:01lowered with his body.
26:02The gunshot shook
26:03rust loose from the ceiling.
26:05A hole blossomed
26:06in the center of James' forehead.
26:08And the final look
26:09frozen on his face
26:10was not fear.
26:11It was relief.
26:15Selina didn't even last long enough
26:16for me to pull the trigger.
26:18The wolf had already
26:19torn through her carotid artery.
26:21Her perfectly curled hair
26:22was soaked in blood.
26:24One of her pearl earrings
26:25rolled to my feet.
26:26After both of them
26:27were torn apart by the beasts,
26:29the Marines still
26:30weren't satisfied.
26:31They stormed into the holding pit.
26:34Gunfire rained down
26:35as they emptied
26:36every last bullet
26:37into the bodies.
26:38Her polished fingers
26:40were still clutching
26:41James' arm.
26:42Her nails were dug deep
26:43into the shredded flesh
26:45of his skin.
26:46Mike kicked Selina's
26:47twisted corpse aside
26:48and held out a gas can
26:50to me.
26:52You want to light it yourself?
26:54I took the can.
26:55The cold metal
26:56against my hand
26:57made me think
26:57of the hospital hallway floor
26:59that night in my last life
27:01when James dragged me away
27:02from the delivery room.
27:04The second the flames shot up,
27:06the heat sent a rag doll
27:07flying from the corner.
27:08I had sewn it in secret
27:09from an old military uniform.
27:12It was supposed to be
27:13my baby's gift.
27:14Now the way it burned
27:15mimicked the little life
27:17that never got the chance
27:18to grow.
27:18The fire rose higher.
27:20The heat twisted the air.
27:22I stood there
27:23and watched the bodies burn.
27:25But I felt no warmth.
27:26That was when I understood.
27:28Revenge wasn't sweet.
27:30It was scorching ash.
27:32It burned the throat.
27:33It choked off every curse
27:35and every question
27:36I never got to say.
27:38Somewhere in the distance,
27:39one of the younger Marines
27:41started crying.
27:42They would never understand
27:43that this fire
27:44wasn't only burning
27:45two filthy bodies.
27:47It was burning
27:48a wife's last faith
27:49in her husband
27:50and a mother's last dream
27:53for her child.
27:54When the first rays of sunrise
27:56tore through the clouds,
27:58I stood on the rebuilt watchtower
28:00and looked down
28:01at the brand new harbor.
28:02In the distance,
28:03the newly formed
28:04children's choir
28:05had already started rehearsing.
28:08Their young voices
28:09floated through the morning light.
28:14The flowers that bloom from ruins
28:16are brighter than the roses
28:17that came before the war.
28:19The grief of losing our loved ones
28:20had not faded,
28:22but hope had already begun to rise.
28:24the young woman who was within the 몰라s,
28:24the little sisterhood
28:25The time you
