****Riley's POV****
I began to panic when Chloe's words entered my ears. I pounded on the seal at the door even harder. I looked down at Jake, Austin, and Faith. They were conscious, watching the whole thing, but paralyzed.
My body started to shake, my palms began to sweat, and I looked at Jason tears in my eyes wanting to just run up and heal him.
"Don't hurt him. I'll go with you, and I won't run away this time. Just don't hurt anyone." I screamed at her.
All I got was a evil laugh back,"Your pathetic."
She kicked Jason in his side, which he groaned in pain. Fresh new tears went down my cheeks as this happened. My heart was aching as I watch her kick, punch, and slice Jason while he just took it.
"Chloe! Stop! Leave him alone!" I dropped to me knees, I couldn't take it,"Please, please stop." I mumbled.
His eyes met mine, and more tears came down my cheeks. I mouthed 'I'm sorry' to him, and he mouthed 'I love you' back. More sobs exited my mouth as I watched in horror.
She took out a knife, and began to make slices wherever she felt like it. I could tell he refused to scream, all he could do was wince. He wouldn't give her that satisfaction.
That gave me a boost of determination.
This ends now.
I began to beat, as hard as I could on the seal. I would try to push through it, but it would just push me back against the railing of the porch.
I could tell Chloe was getting nervous. I was getting stronger. But she quickly wiped that fear away, and kept slicing at Jason's skin.
I tried once more to push through the force, my hand was getting through. I could feel the air in the room. Next thing I knew half my arm was through. I pushed harder but this resulted with me flying towards the railing on the porch, hitting my forearm in the process. It cracked, and I screamed in pain, but it quickly healed.
I looked up at Jason and Chloe's location, and my blood froze.
Chloe had the knife to Jason's heart. I slowly stood up, stayed calm, but fresh tears waiting to spill all over my cheeks.
"Chloe, please. Don't. He doesn't deserve it. None of them do. Please just take down the seal,"My voice cracked as Jason's green eyes met mine but I quickly looked at Chloe's to prevent me from breaking down,"Kill me. Not him." I stepped closer to the door.
"Aww poor Riley can't get through the force. I guess your powers can't help you now." She said as she slid the blade teasingly up and down Jason's throat.
"Chloe please stop, I swear I will do anything," I said with a break in my voice and a tear on my cheek.
"Chloe I'll do anything please," mocked Chloe as she chuckled.
"Take me instead," I said with tears and sweat running down my face.
"Too late now," said Chloe with an evil grin an plunged the knife into Jason's heart.
