  As the fourth day began, the battlefield was stained with the blood of the fallen, a testament to the sacrifice of the Havenbrook defenders. The Tearer's attacks persisted, but their spirit had been broken, their resolve faltering.

  Emily, her ammo running low but her spirit undaunted, called out, "Keep fighting! We've come too far to let them win now!"

  Alex, beside her, added, "They're desperate; don't give them any openings!"

  The defenders fought with a tenacity that defied the odds, their silenced rifles singing the song of the Tearer's demise.
