Chapter 10: Legacy of Zero

Sophia's determination and evidence eventually led to Zeno's release, but it was too late. The government's corruption had gone too far, and Zeno had been fatally wounded in the final confrontation.

As Sophia held him in her arms, Zeno's eyes fluttered closed, a faint smile on his lips. "I'm free," he whispered, his voice barely audible.

Sophia's tears fell on his face as she kissed him goodbye. "You'll always be with me," she promised.

Zeno's body went limp, his chest still. Sophia held him close, her heart shattered into a million pieces.

But even in death, Zeno's legacy lived on. Sophia used his story to fuel her fight against corruption, inspiring a new generation of heroes to rise up and make a difference.

The government was forced to acknowledge Zeno's sacrifice, and his name became a symbol of courage and selflessness. A statue was erected in his honor, a reminder to always stand up for what is right, no matter the cost.

Sophia visited the statue every year, leaving a single rose at its base. She knew that Zeno's spirit lived on, watching over her and guiding her in her quest for justice.
