Escape From Hell
Chapter 8: Fight At Hyde Park
Thunder sounded overhead threatening a storm. It had taken two years for Utterson to realize Jekyll wasn't anywhere to be found. And the silverette had challenged Hyde to a fight in the park late at night with a few others. The blonde eagerly accepted and Utterson told him that under no circumstances was anyone allowed to drink beforehand. And the silverette knew he couldn't trust Hyde but he wanted this to end. Utterson was standing alone in the center of the park, the others he had with him were just showing up. They consisted of, Oswald Carew, Randal Lanyon, and Simon Stride. All of them had a weapon ready to go, none of them were messing around anymore. Hyde wasn't an easy man to take down and he was fighting with only one other person.
The wind grew harsher and Utterson noticed Hyde walking up with his teammate. "You know the rules, whoever runs away first loses. We win, you let us all go. You win, then I will gladly take the place of your slave." Hyde smirked and nodded before pulling out a sword of his own, Utterson growled and pulled his own sword out of the scabbard. The others pulled a knife or had chains with something sharp on it, it would definitely do damage then. Hyde looked over at his teammate who was looking away from him. The blonde narrowed his eyes before running towards the others. Utterson stood his ground and quickly blocked the attack. Lanyon quickly pulled him off with the chains he had and Hyde snarled before kicking him in the jaw.
Utterson growled in anger and then quickly Stride stabbed Hyde in the shoulder. The blonde pushed him away before pulling the knife out of his shoulder and getting closer to him. Utterson quickly kicked the knife out of Hyde's hand before the two began to fight. Lanyon and Stride watched as the two fought furiously, sword colliding with sword. It was storming by then, the rain made the ground slippery with mud and Utterson quickly backflips before Hyde could strike the silverette down. The two separated and circled each other, both breathing hard and drenched from the rain. It was Utterson who ran at Hyde and struck him down. But it was Lanyon who finished it by choking the blonde to death.
The silverette wiped the sweat that threatened to roll into his eyes before looking back at Hyde's teammate. He was still standing there, hood up. But he had a sword in hand by then and looked at Utterson with emotionless eyes. The silverette growled before running at him, and his attack was blocked. The force of it knocked the 28 year old's hood off and Utterson froze. Lanyon looked up and his eyes widened, Carew looked at Utterson and narrowed his eyes wondering why he wasn't continuing the attack. And Stride was just about to charge in and help the silverette but Lanyon stopped him. The silverette teared up and whispered one name he hasn't said in years. "Henry..."
Quickly the young chemist looked at Utterson and narrowed his eyes in hatred. He quickly made a move to strike the silverette and Utterson blocked it. He couldn't believe that his lover was fighting him, especially now. Lanyon ran forward with a sword in hand and quickly assisted Utterson in the fight. The two fought in unison and Jekyll got another sword in hand before fighting the both of them at the same time. At the same time lightning struck the ground starting a fire, but they kept fighting anyways. The others ran off but the three never stopped fighting. The smoke was getting thicker, and it was getting harder to breathe. Utterson coughed and fell to his knees, his sword fell from his hand.
Lanyon kept going no matter how hard it was to breathe. And he managed to disarm Jekyll before the ravenette could stab him. Quickly Jekyll got up and knew they had to get out of there. The two helped Utterson to his feet and quickly ran out of the park and down the street before the police showed up. The three looked at each other before smiling. "It's over now. We can finally live the way we were meant too. Not as masters and slaves, but as we were before Hyde roped us into his game." Jekyll smiled and looked at the silverette before hugging him tightly. "And I'll never let you go again... Never..."
