On December 14th, 3:17 AM, Leo had finally beaten the final boss of Devil Within. The one Mark always bragged about conquering. He’d saved the data, feeling a hollow victory. Then he’d shut the laptop and cried, face buried in a pillow, because no one was there to say, “Told you so.” His older brother, Mark, had just left for the Army
It showed: MARK_A.
