Harper barely had any time to react before she was hauled off the ground. Her feet dangled as she tried to steady herself.
"Hyde!" She choked. "Hyde! Please!"
"Act now, or she'll die," Hyde commanded Yanpu bitterly.
"Hyde!" Harper tried her best to cry out. Only coughs stumbled from her lips messily. She kicked her feet around and grabbed his wrists in an attempt to free herself.
Why was he doing this? They made a deal! Why was he breaking his part to keep it?
"Now," Hyde spat firmly, tightening his grasp around her neck.
"Stop!" Yanpu screamed and grabbed onto Hyde's leg. "Stop! Please!"
"I don't care for the sounds of begging," Hyde brought Harper's body down slightly. "Anything you say right now will not change my mind."
"Hyde!" Harper coughed again as her toes brushed against the grass. She reached for his shirt and began tugging on it harshly. His gaze stayed on Yanpu, so she reached for his hair.
But his other hand stopped it. "Ah, ah." He finally turned to face her. "If you want to breathe, you'd better pray that the kid makes the right decision."
"Agh!" Harper spluttered as she could feel her vision fading. Tears began to well up and fall down her face as she fought to be free.
Was this it for her? Was this truly the end?
"Aghhh!" She voiced through clenched teeth.
"So you're going to let her die this easily?" Hyde kicked Yanpu away, mocking him. "I guess she was never that important to you. I'd say it's a shame, but honestly, this will be a good riddance. One I've been waiting for, for a long time. After 5 weeks, the reason for my annoyance will finally be gone."
Yanpu cried and crawled back over to Hyde, who was still holding Harper in a deadly position. "Please!"
Harper stopped fighting. Her hands fell at her sides lifelessly and her head tilted to the side.
She stopped breathing. Yanpu felt it.
Suddenly, a surge of anger, rage, and frustration scoured through his veins.
The emotions were so strong that his mind went blank. There were no thoughts, only a strong desire.
It was an immeasurable fury that surged within his heart to do everything it took, to halt the man holding Harper so carelessly. He wanted to force him on his knees, to beg for mercy, to regret ever laying a finger on his caretaker.
The soil moved under his fingers and feet. They shifted under his shadows, red flakes of stone merging and fusing to create a crystal. All it took was one step forward to send Hyde flying across the field.
Hyde skyrocketed and skidded against the grass, gaining a bad turf burn on his arm.
"Shite!" Hyde laughed dastardly. "That's what I'm talking about!" He brushed his hair back with a smirk.
Harper was dropped at Yanpu's feet. He quickly checked on her and rolled her on her back. Slowly, the black began to fade and Harper could see clearly again.
She inhaled and exhaled heavily, sputtering as oxygen refilled her lungs.
"Harper!" Yanpu placed a hand on her forehead to get her attention.
"Yanpu?" Harper furrowed her eyebrows in confusion.
The boy's eyes were glowing red, just like Hyde's. And there were red veins coating his fair skin.
