What do I do? What do I do!?

I stared at Jiwoo twisted up in Dusiks power. My eyes watering. Biting my lip to the point it bled. "You useless basterds, I told you not to let anyone in" the damned thing spoke. "We're sorry sir!" "What're you doing!?!" The trio walked in, practically running when they saw the start Jiwoo was in. "It's none of your buisness. I have every reason to do this" "I don't know what that reason is but you cannot do this!!" "Like hell I can't, this punk is a spy who came to snoop around this academy" "what!? What do you mean Jiwoo is a spy!?" "What part of Jiwoo being a spy do you not understand? He's a spy according to Beakdus background check on him" their conversation went in one ear and out the other as I slowly walked in, clasping my hands together as my eyes stared up at Jiwoo. His l pained expression. The position he's in. All of it only gave me flashbacks again.

Again and again. All I could think about was hyung. It's only a matter of time before hyungs face suddenly becomes Jiwoos. Do I help? Do I not? I know Jiwoo will be fine but...but if I interfere, will it at least lessen the pain? But is it worth knowing I'd expose mysef? "That's enough. Shinwha brought Jiwoo after a thorough investigation" "well, it apperently wasn't thorough enough" "without solid evidence-!" "I'll give you the evidence later" "then until then, we'll take Jiwoo" again, the conversation. My mind. It all came to a blank. "I'm telling you. I'll take care of him. What are you going to do about it?" I heard Dusiks voice. "You're Inhyuk goo of Shinwha, right?" As well as my heartbeat throbbing in my head.

The amusing feeling once again arising within my chest. "Does this mean that Shinwha is turning their back on Beakdu?" He asked. "Is confronting Beakdu, what Shinwha wants?" He threatened. "Think we'll before you act. Are we really going to get on each others bad sides just because of this kid? Especially when foreign awakened ones are desperately looking for a chance to bring our country down and villains are thriving?" After he spoke of these words, the trio remained quiet. They also have a lot riding on their shoulders whether to confront Beakdu this way or not. It's not an easy decision.

"Now, let's resume"

"ARGHHHH!!"

If you don't do something, I will.

I flinched hearing a familiar voice. A voice I dreaded to hear. But as soon as I heard one of Jiwoos bones crack the way it did and only brought him even more pain. You could say something else also snapped in me.

"Hua will gladly go to war with you" I said. Finally after having been shaken up to a stand still, desperately trying to figure out what I should do. At this point, if I can't even ease some of the pain Jiwoo will feel now or in the future, what's the point? My survival? Hiding away because I'm afraid? Would hyung have wanted me to turn a blind eye to my friend in a situation he needed help? What would hyung do? Those were all the questions I repeatedly asked myself.

Yeah. Hyung would be just as heroic as the day he saved me and others many times in my previous life as Sehyun. And if I can help, even just a little, it'd be worth living in this life as well.

By the time everyone turned to look my way, I gathered all my power to my legs and feet. Just as I did to save my pup from the cliff I destroyed a few months ago, I shot past everyone. In a blink of an eye, I was right in front of Dusik Kang. "Fucking Hag-" I mumbled, balling my right hand into a fist and launching in right into his face. The power hyung had given me surrounding my knuckles once it made impact. Without wasting another second, I quickly ducked once his hand shot forward to grab me. In return, i did a 180, using my power to cover my heel as I made impact to the old man's side. A counter kick. "Ugh-" he let out a slight yelp, not expecting my impacts to be so heavy and solid. I gulped once he was moved a certain distance from Jiwoo. Almost toppling over. Every hit I put on that man had all of my power in it. Literally. I felt immensely exhausted but hearing Jiwoos groans behind me reminded myself of why I revealed my ability early on.
