Internally rusted chronometers were replaced with indecipherable digital code as the scarlet and sienna dust settled over the pixilated landscape.
Everything was blurred and scrambled beyond recognition, except for the explosive meteor shower that perforated reality itself. It was Zero’s final attempt in saving him.
The only sensation X felt as his data was trapped in an infinite algorithm of deletion was searing hot pain that pulled apart every molecule of his being, down to the bare essence of his atoms. His physical body no longer existed. Instead, he phased through as lines of corrupted data and error warnings, living out his final moments in cyberspace.
X glitched out of existence and Zero was too late this time.
