As soon as the news had been announced, Hoseok had texted and called Jeongguk, but the boy never picked up or replied. He knew that if he had, he would've laughed at the older's misery and he couldn't just give himself away like that.

Instead, he decided to fill out yet another target request form. He had been given the opportunity yet again, as he had followed through with the first one.

In fact, since he had followed through with eliminating Yoongi, he had finally surpassed TheProphet on the leaderboards.

He felt a great deal of pride at the accomplishment. Ever since he had began the 'game' he had wanted to reside in the first place spot. Now that he was finally there, he was going to take advantage of it and try to raise his score even more. He wanted to make sure that nobody was going to rise above him for a long, long time.

"Target name..." Jeongguk muttered, reading off the form. "Jung Hoseok."

As he was filling out the request form, a message popped up on his screen.

'!URGENT!

TheSandman,

[Link to: Secret Location]'

Sighing, Jeongguk clicked on the link and was directed to another screen that consisted of the address. He typed it into his GPS on his phone, getting directions.

He logged off of his computer and went downstairs, lying to his mother and telling her that he was going to Hoseok's house. He then exited his house and began following his phone's directions.

It took him a good half an hour to reach the location. By the time he had gotten there, he was tired from walking and his cell phone battery was on the verge of being dead.

Seeing where he was at, he was confused. He was in the middle of a forest, an old cabin several yards away. Shrugging, he walked towards the cabin.

As he reached for the door, a deep voice called out to him.

"Jeon Jeongguk, I'm right here."

Said boy turned around to see a figure wearing all black. They slowly approached him, removing the mask from their face once they were just a few feet away.

Jeongguk's eyes widened and he struggled to find the words to even speak.

"...what the hell?"

A/N: Hope you enjoyed this chapter! The next chapter is - unfortunately - the last one, but I'm planning on writing an epilogue as well, so don't worry.

Who do you guys think the mysterious person is?
