Gavin Turner struggled to his feet, pushing Charlotte Green away and grabbing Lucy Peak's knife-wielding hands with all his strength, shouting to her, "Charlotte, run!"
"Gavin, let go of me, I need to kill her — without her, there'll be nothing standing in our way anymore," Lucy Peak struggled fiercely, her face twisted with ferocity.
"You're sick! I won't let you hurt her again, especially not in front of me!" Blood continued to drain from his body, Gavin spoke feebly, yet he adamantly refused to let go.
"Then don't blame me!" Lucy Peak, relentless, pushed Gavin with all her might.
Gavin, injured and weak, was pushed aside, and at the same time, Charlotte Green hit Lucy Peak hard on the forehead with a large stone she was holding, stopping Lucy's motion to stab her mid-air; the knife slipped from Lucy's hand and clattered to the floor.
Charlotte dropped the stone and hurriedly ran to Gavin, "Senior, are you okay? I... I'll carry you out."
