I keep feeling like the death of Scar was not dramatic enough so I redid it. enjoy xoxoxoThe chamber was shrouded in a heavy silence broken only by the faint crackling of torches and Leo Dubois's ragged breaths. Before him stood Scar, the once-beloved face of his father twisted and distorted by the malevolent deity that had taken hold. Leo's sword, gripped tightly in his trembling hands, hovered between them, its blade catching the dim light as Leo struggled to find words that could pierce the veil of darkness that now clouded his father's form."Why, father?" Leo's voice was barely a whisper, choked with emotion. "Why did you kill them all? Mother, and the rest of our clan... the healers. They were innocent."Scar, speaking through the voice that belonged to Leo's father, regarded him with an unsettling calmness. "They refused to submit," Scar replied coldly, his eyes narrowing with an intensity that sent a shiver down Leo's spine. "They stood in the way of my ascension, of the powe
Leo Dubois stood amidst the aftermath of his grim act, his chest heaving with exertion and his mind reeling from the weight of what he had done. Scar, the false god who had possessed his father's body, lay lifeless at his feet, his form finally still after unleashing years of terror upon the city.Despite the finality of Scar's demise, Leo's heart remained heavy with turmoil. He had slain his own father to rid the world of Scar's malevolent influence, yet the act of driving his sword into his father's chest gnawed at his conscience like a festering wound.The memories of his mother and their Divine Clan, slaughtered in Scar's bid for power, haunted him still.Leo's gaze swept across the chamber, his eyes searching desperately for the familiar faces of his crew.

In the dimly lit confines of an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of the city, Johnson Ax and Arthur Columbus sat huddled together, their faces etched with fear and uncertainty. The news of Scar's demise had spread like wildfire through the city, leaving a trail of panic and chaos in its wake.But for Johnson and Arthur, devout followers of the fallen deity, the news struck a particularly chilling chord."Scar is dead," Johnson muttered, his voice barely above a whisper. "Leo did it."Arthur's hands trembled as he clutched his phone tightly, the screen illuminated by a faint glow."Leo and Helen... they're coming for us," he replied hoarsely, his gaze darting nervously around the warehouse as if expecting their enemies to materialize out of thin air.Arthur's hands trembled as he clutched his phone tightly, the screen illuminated by a faint glow."Leo and Helen... they're coming for us," he replied hoarsely, his gaze darting nervously around the warehouse as if expecting their ene
Leonardo Dubois sat at his desk in his makeshift office, the weight of recent events pressing heavily upon him. The city, once gripped by fear under Scar's reign, was now beginning to find its footing again under Helen Jones's leadership. Leo had played his part in reclaiming control, but the price demanded by Johnson Ax and Arthur Columbus threatened to unravel everything.His ex-wife, Melissa, held captive by his enemies as a bargaining chip. Safe passage out of the city in exchange for her release. It was a precarious situation, one that tested Leo's resolve and moral compass. He stared at the city skyline through the dusty window, lost in thought, weighing the risks and the potential consequences of his decision.The door creaked open, breaking Leo from his reverie.

Five Years LaterLeonardo Dubois was standing at the altar, looking calm among all the excitement in the grand cathedral. He wore a sharp black suit that showed off his strong build, with neatly styled dark hair and a small smile as he waited for his bride. His best man was Ross who branded at him with pride and Kyrian who was looking very affected by his old age was in the crowds with a smile on his face as he watched the wedding.Helen Jones, in a beautiful ivory dress with lace and beads, walked down the aisle with Hazel at her right hand.

The sun bathed the scene in golden light, casting long shadows across the manicured lawn. James gripped the handlebars tightly, his legs pumping furiously to keep the bike moving forward.

Helen smiled in her sleep as she watched her son's chest rise and fall in her dreams.
