Summary
“I did it. I did it, I did it! I’ve stopped the virus!”
Benji’s voice echos triumphantly in his ear through the comms, and Ethan lets out a breathe that he doesn’t realize he’s been holding. They did it. Benji did it. The virus is gone. The satellites around earth are all still functioning, the world has not descended into chaos, and they’re all still alive.
“Good work, Benj,” he says back.

The door that he’s steadily inching towards opens, and out comes Benji, gun raised and ready to fire. He’s still on high alert, but Ethan can also see the mirth in his eyes, no doubt for coming out victorious against the virus. Ethan watches as he takes a look around the open area to assess the situation, and can’t help but smile back when, determining that the danger is indeed over, Benji’s eyes finally land on him and the biggest grin takes over his face.
It’s the most beautiful thing Ethan has ever seen.
Benji begins moving towards him at the same time he does, only significantly faster, not held back by Ethan’s injuries or waning stamina. They’re about three feet apart when Ethan stumbles in his haste to push himself faster, to get to his partner sooner, and before he realizes it, he’s falling.
