"UGH!" Mina was still struggling to kick the salt away with her foot but it was too far for her to reach. Her face was red and she was sweating hard from trying to remove the salt barrier. Kanji shook his head.
"Stop it!" he said sharply. "You're only hurting yourself."
He noticed that her binds had only tightened around her wrists, cutting deep into her skin. But Mina did not care; she had to destroy that barrier.
"Just...a bit...more... " she panted but her foot would not reach it. She barely scraped some of the dalt but it was not enough.
"Stop it!" he yelled. "It's no use! We're stuck here until someone comes here!"
"Who's gonna come here?" she snapped. ""Do you see anyone here? Your dad is under their spell and my family probably doesn't know where we are!"
"Still...stop," he insisted. "I don't want our last days to be spent like this!"
