200 The Young Boy and Girl (2/2)
”Now, Let's test out this sacred treasure...” John muttered
-------------------------
The kids ran and ran as hard as they can, going through crowds of people, hoping that the man would give up, but he showed no signs of doing so.
He continued to chase after them, as if there was nothing more important.
”H-HELP!”
”PLEASE!”
The two cried out for help but there was no reply, no knights could be seen in the area, and most of the civilians just ignored it, as if it was something normal.
Seeing this, the kids had no choice but to somehow shake him off. They took a sharp left turn straight into the alley, hoping that they would be able to find a path that only they could fit through.
And once they did, they found it. A small hole on the wall which they would be able to get through
”Quick! You firs-”
The boy suddenly stopped talking when he realised that the girl was no longer with him. He turned around and noticed that she had been caught by the guy
”You have some nerve, trying to get away from me...” Said the man as he gripped tightly on to the girls hand
The girl tried struggling out of his grip scratching at his hand and even biting it, but she had no luck.
”Quiet...”
The guy stretched out his right hand and gripped on to the girls head
”AAH!!” She cried out in pain
The boy watched, desperately trying to think of something to do. They were in an alley, so they could only go forward and back. On top of that, they were the only ones there.
Anyone who passed through on the outside showed no interest. But he couldn't just sit back and watch without doing anything. The boy noticed a piece of broken grass on the ground, and without even thinking about it.
He rushed over to it, and picked it up before charging straight at the man who was about to slam his friend on to the wall.
”LET HER GO!!” The boy shouted
”Oh...? I finally found you after all this time. Sit back quietly.” Said the man as he sent a kick straight at the boy's head
The boy ducked just in time, barely avoiding and stretched out his dagger straight towards the man's arm.
But before he could pierce it, the man suddenly moved the girl in the way In the last second. And in that moment, the boy tripped.
”Sacred Treasure Art...”
The broken glass on his hand got closer and closer to the girls, he couldn't stop it, he tried moving his hand, but wasn't fast enough.
He was going to stab her at this rate
”WAI-”
”Modero.” Translation: Slow down
