Countdown
Fandom: Noblesse
Summary: M-21 knows the date he’s going to die. It’s embedded in his arm, ticking down on the wrist opposite where he’s been branded.
Notes: Soulmates AU.
Another collection post of snippets, heh. I've got one part already done and I'm working on a third. We'll see if I can remember what was supposed to happen in the fourth… *sweat*

M-21 knows the date he’s going to die. It’s embedded in his arm, ticking down on the wrist opposite where he’s been branded.
Sometimes he’d stare at it, wishing he’d had more time, that he’d been able to do something before it reached zero. But it’s inevitable, something he can’t fucking run away from like he’d tried to stay away from the labs. Most of the M-series had died even before their time was up, so he’s lucky in a sense, that he’s been able to live as long as he’d been allowed. Hah. Whatever he gets, it would never have been enough.
There’s only minutes left and he’s sure he can feel his skin burning as each second ticks down while he follows Shark and Hammer to their safehouse.
Maybe.
Just maybe, he might be able to find some information out about his comrades before he dies.
It’s a futile, impossible hope and he knows it, but that’s what he wants to find out in his final moments rather than finding nothing.
