Aether ran as fast as he could towards the gang members, his heart pounding in his chest. He saw Venti lying on the ground, still clutching the grocery bags in his hands. Aether stopped a few feet away from the gang and raised the knife, his hands shaking with fear. “Stop! Let him go!” he shouted. Two of the gangsters turned to face him, and they saw the knife in his hand. Aether didn’t know what else to do, so he charged at them with all his might.
The gang members were taken aback by Aether’s sudden attack, and they tried to back away. But Aether was on a mission, and he wasn’t going to be deterred. He swung the knife wildly, trying to hit anyone within reach. But the gangsters were larger and stronger, and they quickly wrestled the knife away from him. They threw him to the ground, pinning him down. Aether tried to crawl away, but they were too quick and had him cornered. One of the gangsters grabbed a pipe from the ground and swung it at Aether, hitting him on the head. Aether felt a sharp pain and everything went dark.
