"Greed!" Charity exclaimed, spotting the sin laid down on the ground. She seemed to be heavily injured, not even responding as the two healers—Gluttony and Kindness—tried to help her.

He ran towards her, leaving the people cleaning up the damage and such. When he arrived at the makeshift medical tent—spotting Envy and a few others huddled over a figure—Kindness immediately waved him over.

"What happened?" he asked, crouching down next to his sister.

Kindness tucked her hair behind her ear with her clean finger. The others are drenched with blood. "Greed got injured," she said quietly. "We're not sure she'll last."

Gluttony replaced the bandage on her throat. "We can't open a portal to return to the spirit realm, and if she turns into her mini form, it'll just be worse." he explained.

"Why can't you open a portal?" Charity asked.

"The residue of Witchcraft's magic," Kindness explained. "Fraudulent has been trying to override it, and Envy's the one that can help her as he's pretty knowledgeable about it, but he's currently... yeah."

"I see." Charity said, looking at Greed. Her amber eyes, eyes like liquid gold, didn't seem scared. Instead it shone with determination as usual.

And that's when he knew she really wouldn't last.

Gluttony seemed to agree with him. "I'll do my best," he said.

Kindness unwrapped the bandage, even though it had just been replaced.

It was soaked with blood already.

Charity could see the extent of the injury. He slowly took his rival's hand, to reassure her that it's okay. It was cold and clammy from the blood loss.

Greed slowly moved her gaze to her rival's face, as if saying, Thanks for reassuring me.

Kindness dropped her hand and wiped it on her pants. A sign of giving up.

So did Gluttony, and the two healers looked at Greed in sorrow before getting up and helping other salvageable spirits.

"Dhaz korun, Avaritia." Charity said softly.

Despite being fatally injured on her neck, Greed still somehow gathered the strength to respond.

"Dhaz korun, Caritas." she mouthed, slightly whispering.

Charity squeezed her hand, and Greed closed her eyes and went still.

A ball of vivid golden light floated up from her chest, a signal of her death.
