Both brothers let out a groan of pain as Dion's forehead slammed into the bridge of Bryan's nose with a sickening crunch. Stars exploded in Dion's vision, and for a heartbeat, the world went blurry.
But he didn't care as he clamped his hands tighter around Bryan's wrists and drove his head again into the same spot.
The second collision was even more brutal, sending a fresh jolt of agony through Dion's skull. Blood that was a mixture of his own skin splitting and the heavy spray from Bryan's shattered nose immediately began to slick his forehead and run into his eyes. But the impact had done its job. Bryan reeled back, his posture breaking as he instinctively clutched at his face, letting out a pained, muffled roar.
Both of them were dazed and bleeding heavily. Dion quickly shook his head to clear the stars from his vision and immediately pushed off the ground, shoving Bryan's chest with both hands to throw the heavier boy back into the sand.
