## Summary

Auxil and his brother, Sentinel, found solace in their unique bond. From sharing the same captivating eyes to training side by side, their connection ran deeper than that of their respective Masters. Although against their duty, the two cats would often exchange stories, boasting about their Masters' exploits. They knew that their alliance was temporary, as Jasper and Bruno, their Masters, were vastly different beings. While Jasper allowed for contemplation and persuasion in his conquests, Bruno thrived on fear and swift annihilation.
Auxil's curiosity got the best of him. He asked Sentinel about the ongoing conversation between their Masters, wondering if Brand, another formidable enemy, was their current target. The thought of facing another powerful enemy like Jackal, Brand's servant, sent shivers down Auxil's spine. But to his surprise, Sentinel showed a twisted pleasure at the idea, igniting fear within his normally composed self.
A sudden altercation erupted in the alley, and without hesitation, the two servants sprang into action, subduing themselves. Bruno and Jasper exchanged fiery threats, warning of the impending storm and imminent destruction. With a final glance between the two servants, a tacit acknowledgment passed. They were turning their backs on each other, knowing this would be their last friendly encounter, severing the bond they had.
Auxil's adrenaline surged as he unleashed his ferocity upon the enemy. With his strength and Bruno's unwavering brutality, they were a formidable force, reducing their opponents' numbers in record time. However, in the chaos of the fight, Auxil found himself face to face with none other than Jasper himself.
With a grudge in his heart, Auxil prepared to savor the brutal demise of Jasper. He lunged, intending to be the executioner, but fate intervened. A sudden blow struck him, knocking him off balance. As he retaliated, he discovered that Sentinel had intervened, protecting Jasper from his wrath. Confusion and astonishment mingled within him at this unexpected turn of events.
Observing his brother's unyielding determination, Auxil's gaze shifted to a distant memory — the first time Sentinel hesitated to take a life, rescued only by Auxil's insistence. Sentinel had always been the gentler soul, and Auxil had long anticipated that it would be he who would fall by the end of their journey together.
Their battle intensified, each unleashing their full might upon the other. The struggle was fierce, their silent clash echoing like the collision of titanic forces. But this time, Auxil outmaneuvered Sentinel, evading his signature move and overpowering him. Realizing that victory was within his grasp, Auxil clamped his jaws around Sentinel's throat, ending his brother's life.
The weight of the moment settled upon Auxil as he locked eyes with Sentinel for the final time. The life ebbed away, leaving nothing but an empty shell, devoid of the brother he once knew. With blood staining his fur and wounds marring his own body, Auxil searched for his Master, Bruno, but he was nowhere to be found amidst the chaos.
Overwhelmed by pain, both physical and emotional, Auxil collapsed to the ground. His battered form wracked with agony, the impending reality of death closing in. Fear gripped him like never before as he gasped for breath, struggling to prolong his existence. But as his vitality waned, he found himself alone, surrounded by a tumultuous backdrop of battling cats. Victory in the war was yet to be secured, and his own demise hung in the balance.
Auxil fought against the inevitable, the heaviness of his body rendering him motionless. His gaze searched desperately, yearning for the comforting sight of Bruno. Instead, his surroundings offered only feral snarls and the sight of fallen comrades. He was left alone with his fleeting existence, a hollow vessel whose story would vanish, unspoken and misunderstood.
