Seeing Skyler sigh, the tattooed thug presumed that his extortion worked.
He strode up, grabbing Frank's shoulder. "No one's gonna help you, boy. Pay up, or you're not leaving."
"Exactly! You're not getting away!" the crowd of hood rats hollered. "Last chance."
Frank's eyes were cold and fixed on Dani, however. "Are you going to intervene? If you do, you can keep that check. If you don't…"
"Ugh. Fuck off! I don't care!" Dani spat, her expression smug as she folded her arms before her chest. "Who do you think you are to threaten me?!"
"Exactly! Pay up, and you can leave!"
"Yeah! Ten grand, at least!"
"You probably don't know my boss Wyvern, but when he's here, you won't get away with just ten grand!"
Even as the crowd closed in, Frank shook his head. "Well, you had your chance. Don't blame me for what happens next."
"You're giving us a chance?! Hah! Who—argh!"
Even before Dani could finish gloating, Frank was suddenly in front of her, grabbing her viciously by the wrist.
"Argh! Stop! Stop! Let me go!" she cried, her tears rolling from just a slight squeeze as she dropped the check.
"I gave you a chance, but you didn't take it." Frank snorted.
Even before the crowd realized what happened, Frank snatched the check and tore it into pieces, which he flung into the air nonchalantly.
"No! My money!!!"
Seeing what happened, Dani clawed maniacally toward the tiny pieces even as they floated away with the wind, not caring about the agony in her wrist!
Frank snorted, launching a gale that kicked up countless little sharp rocks, cutting off the pinky of every hood rat as they howled.
"Argh!!!"
"Help… Help!!!"
"Sorry, please! We made a mistake!"
The hood rats were all either screaming or kowtowing to Frank, seeing how easily and precisely he could slice off a finger!
"You reap what you sow." Frank snorted coolly, his face dropping when he turned and looked into the distance.
"After him!" he shouted at Skyler while already dashing down the end of the street.
Skyler quickly caught on and ran after him, leaving that lawless district in an instant.
