Alpha's Guardian Angel
There have been casualties but, in the end, we will win.
As I turn to look at my fellow Guardians, I see it. The leech that was with Keenan has Clint, his fangs deep into Clint’s neck. As I watch, Dimitri rips Clint’s throat out. His mouth is covered in blood that is dripping down his face. His face, turned up to the night sky, has a look of total ecstasy from feeding on Clint.
I feel it, just as I have felt every other death tonight. The tether that bonded us as Guardians snaps and I know that he is gone. I realize that Cara feels it too, the death of her father. I watch as she turns, seeing her father crumple to the ground.
