'Shut the fuck up weirdo,' Jay screeched.

He could feel his heart sinking in his chest as the words escaped his throat. His forehead was beaded with sweat. He tried his best to maintain a stern expression but it was all in vain. His shaky voice and quavering limbs gave him away.

'Jongseong ah,' Heeseung beamed at Jay. 'Calm down. It's not like he can hear us or anything.'

'No.'

The seven of them turned to face the television again. Dommy was glaring at them, baring his rotten teeth at them like they were fangs.
He growled.

'He...He can hear us, hyung,' Sunoo said in small voice, holding onto the side of the bed for support.

'Dommy says,' he said in a deep, raspy voice completely opposite to the high pitched one he let out a few minutes ago.
'Enhypen does.'

There was a considerably long, suffocating pause lasting a minute before Dommy's hard grimace faded and his toothy, creepy grin returned.

'Hihihihihi,' he giggled again, making Jake's flesh crawl. 'Who-what...Who are you,' he managed to squeak out.

Jake stumbled back as Dommy's face grew bigger on the screen, indicating his proximity to the camera. Jake was pretty sure that any moment now he would climb out of the idiot box and pounce on him.

'Dommy's first time seeing Enhypen so close. Hihihi...Dommy star struck,' he giggled.

Jake gulped, digging his fingernails into the fabric of his jacket.

'Let us out so we can see you in person then,' Jungwon smiled jauntily, his face showing no hints of panic or dread.

'No no no,' Dommy squealed in a high pitched voice, moving his index finger back and forth in front of them. 'First I talk to Enhypen.'
He grinned at brought his face closer.
'Then I meet Enhypen,' his voice turned deep and hoarse again as he smiled his sinister toothy smile.

Ni-Ki's lips trembled. He eyed the four walled room, desperate to find something that would help break the television. He couldn't stand this guy anymore.

'Okay then,' Heeseung said, trying his best to stay collected. 'What do you want us to do?'
Dommy shrugged.
'Dommy wants to play a game.'

'What sort of game?,' Sunghoon's voice cracked.
'How loyal the seven of you actually are to each other? I want you all to find out. I'm going to speak out riddles pertaining to "shady" stuff you guys have done and the person in the room who committed the deed must confess to it,' he returned to his hoarse voice again.

'And if we don't ?,' Sunoo mumbled.
The man started to cackle. 'If you don't?,' his voice suddenly turned irascible. He broke the pacifier in his hand.

'If you don't then you'll have to pay.'

Heeseung took a deep breath. 'Okay. We'll do whatever you tell us to do. You'll let us out after that won't you?'
Jungwon patted his hyung's shoulder. Heeseung was trying his best to stay calm for his dongsaengs but it didn't change the fact that he was equally taken aback by recent turn of events. He could feel it. 

'That's exactly what I expected out of Heeseung. You never fail to impress me,' he giggled. He pulled the headscarf away, revealing a prematurely balding scalp. There were visible stitches on his head, running through the top of his forehead to the beginning of his neck.

'I'm going to ask you guys a riddle now, hihihi....Should I start now? Oh my god, I'm so excited!,' he rubbed his hands together in exhilaration, mimicking a toddler being handed over a new toy.

'Wait...I still don't understand...I don't know how this works,' Sunoo faltered, his eyes not meeting the screen. He pressed his lips together and stared down at his feet.

'Sunoo ya,' Dommy whined, trying to echo Sunoo's aegyo. Under normal circumstances, Sunghoon would have guffawed at this and joined in on the fun, but today's events were turning out to be anything but ordinary.

'Don't you dare sicko,' Sunghoon drew a protective arm around his dongsaeng.
'Oh I'll show you what I can dare to do, pretty boy,' he winked.

He snapped his fingers.

'Aaahhh!'

Sunghoon fell down on the floor, writhing in pain. His head felt like it would burst. His temples started throbbing in pain. Breathing felt like an insanely impossible task.

'MAKE IT STOP!,' he screamed.

'Yah hyung,' Jungwon bent down by his side in concern. Sunoo stood beside him, frozen in fear.

'What the hell is going on,' Jay rushed to Sunghoon's aid. 'Yah Sunghoon,' Jake bent down and rubbed his hands. Ni-Ki and Heeseung helped carry him to the bed. 'Make it stop,' Sunghoon squeaked. There were tears in his eyes. 'I can't take it anymore. Please. Make it stop,' he started yanking his hair out.

'Stop it, please,' Sunoo bent down on his knees, this time looking at Dommy in the eye. 'He's sorry, okay? I'm sorry to. Just please tell us how we're supposed to play the game you want us to be a part of.'

'Now that's what I wanted. Hihihihihi,' he laughed, flashing his light brown teeth.

He snapped his fingers once again, and Sunghoon heaved a sigh of relief. His head suddenly felt fine now. He sat upright on the bed, taking deep breaths.

'Kwenchana?,' Heeseung looked at him, his large Bambi eyes flared up with concern.
'Hmm,' he nodded.

'I give you guys a riddle to solve. Each riddle pertains to each time you guys betrayed each other. The one who has betrayed someone in the riddle I mention must admit to it. If that person doesn't, then you all get punished. We play until I'm satisfied,' he grinned.

'I'll start with the first one, shall I? Now you don't have to worry about not being smart enough to solve them, I was careful about not being too vague, hihihi,' he giggled, this time covering his mouth.

'It doesn't take a genius to figure out the acceleration due to gravity the camaraderie will crash down with after taking a bite of the forbidden fruit.'

Jake gulped.
