Chapter 2

[A/N] : Hi everyone! The second chapter of the story! \^0^/ Hope you guys have liked the first one. I'll keep on working hard!

Anyway, please enjoy this chapter, I've done my best. (I hope)

He was seven. His mother gripped his hand tightly. He could tell that she was nervous. It was time.

They arrived at a dome-shaped building, the glass sparkling in the sunlight. Two men appeared and placed a firm hand on his shoulders. "Let's go, kid." He clung onto his mother, not willing to let go.

"My dear child," his mother had bent down to look at him. "Do not be afraid."

She placed something in his hand. It was a four-leaf-clover necklace.

"Take it. Whoever you end up with, remember this. I will always be with you."

And with that, the two men yanked him out of his mother's grasp and left him into the building.

"Mom!"
                          .     .     .
The doors burst open, making everyone sit up in their beds. In came Professor Nick, followed by two nurses pushing a bed where an unconscious Baekhyun lay. He was pushed to an empty space of the room.

As the nurses pulled back the curtains, Professor Nick came up to the rest, a smile on his face.

"What did you do to him?!" Chanyeol yelled.

"Relax, I only sedated him. He should wake up in a couple of hours."

Chanyeol looked over to Baekhyun wearily. He looks peaceful, Chanyeol decided, and turned back to Professor Nick, who was speaking again.

"Now, you must be wondering why I've brought you here." He said, still smiling. "This whole week I will be testing you, one by one, with various types of obstacles. After that, I will sedate you, as I did with Baekhyun."

"Why?" D.O. raised his hands up. "What's with all the tests? And why one by one?"

The professor's face grew serious. "Because, I know you're not from here. I know the things you can do. I've already tested your friend Baekhyun there, he passed perfectly. I expect that the rest of you do too."

He reached the door and stepped outside. "Enjoy the room." He slammed it shut.

"Was it just me," Xiumin said, breaking the silence. "Or did he sounds like he was threatening us?"

Chanyeol answered, a low growl in his voice. "Just you."
                           .     .     .
It was dark by the time Baekhyun woke up. He jolted to a start, clutching his necklace so hard that his knuckles had turned white. He thought back to his dream.

His mother.

His own mother that he hasn't seen for 18 years. His heart felt stung. He let go of his necklace and looked down at it. There was a scratch on it. He frowned.

It was then he realised what he was wearing. A white suit that covered every single part of his body except his head. Two red lines team down the leg of his pants and a number imprinted on his collar.

04.

He looked up. White curtains surrounded him, blocking any view of what was behind. He got down from his bed and went over to look. His friends laid on identical beds in a large room. Dark windows lined up on the walls and a door ------the only door------ in the far corner of the room.

All his friends were asleep, though, not so peacefully. He wondered how long they've been here. The last thing he remembered was being sedated by Professor Nick...

"Psst! Baekhyun!" A loud whisper came from his left. He spun around it was Xiumin, apparently woken up by the soft swish of Baekhyun's curtains.

"Xiumin hyung!" He whispered back. "I thought you were asleep!"

"I woke up." Xiumin had jumped down from his bed and crept over. "Man, you're finally awake!"

"How long was I out?"

"Six hours."

"Six...?!"

"What's going on?"

Xiumin and Baekhyun had to clamp their hands over their mouths to keep from crying out. D.O. had been woken up too and had not noticed Baekhyun straightaway.

"Xiumin hyung! Who are you talking to?"

"Baekhyun's awake, you dolt! Can't you see him?"

"He's awake?!"

"Ssst!" He put a finger to his mouth.

By now the whole room was awake. Chanyeol hopped out of bed and rushed to Baekhyun, tackling him down.

"Ah! Chanyeol!" Baekhyun complained, while trying not to topple over.

"You're okay!" Chanyeol cried in relief. "What happened back there? Did he do anything?"

"I'm fine. I'm fine. Get off of me!"

"Oh. Sorry."

The others just smiled as they watched the scene unfold. Baekhyun and Chanyeol have been best friends since young, and since Baekhyun had always been the smaller one among the two, Chanyeol made it a point to protect him and care for him. Baekhyun liked Chanyeol's company, too, even if he might get a bit annoying at times.

Baekhyun realised that all of them were wearing the exact same outfit. The only thing different were the numbers. Xiumin was 99; Suho 01; Lay had gotten 10; D.O. 12 and Chanyeol 61.

"Baekhyun!" Chanyeol snapped his fingers, causing him to blink.

"Yes, what is it?"

"What happened?"

The room grew silent, waiting for Baekhyun's answer. He took a deep breath and poured everything out.

"... After that, he stuck the needle into my neck and here we are." Baekhyun finished. "Now would you please tell me what's going on?"

Chanyeol gulped, while Xiumin gave an uneasy glance to Suho and Lay. D.O. didn't seem to have any reactions, and just stared with a blank face. Baekhyun noticed his friends' reactions and frowned.

"Did something bad happen?"

"Umm, sorta." Suho answered. "You see, we're not from here, exactly. We were supposed to be visiting."

"Visiting?" Baekhyun tilted his head to one side, showing that he didn't understand.

"Yes. Halfway through the journey, our ship started to malfunction, causing us to fall."

D.O. took over. "We entered their atmosphere and they assumed we were enemies. Brought out their machines and fired at us. We were hit and we crashed. They surrounded us with guns and brought us in."

Baekhyun nodded slowly. He had had visions of this before, he remembered.

"You knocked your head during the crash so you were out cold." Lay continued. "Chanyeol made an attempt to wake you up, before he was hit too."

"It doesn't hurt anymore," Chanyeol assured Baekhyun, who looked at him in disbelief. "They treated me. I'm all healed now."

He nodded again, trembling slightly.
"And... then...what?" He could sense that it wasn't something good.

"You might not remember it sure to that head injury but...you transformed."

---End of Chapter 2---

Double update this week! I didn't really planned it but my friend FukuseishiEi requested this (and partly because I'm excited to), so here we are!

I'm also a huge ChanBaek shipper so I guess it's natural for me to include some of their moments in the story. (Kekeke~)

Hope you guys have enjoyed this chapter as you have with the first one, please vote and leave any comments if you have. And until the next chapter, I'll see you guys soon!

Bye~!
