"I can't believe he just ran away..."

"Do you know, what I can't believe, Felix? That you are really this dumb and naive! You could have been his next victim!"

"Victim?"

"You don't understand what's happening here, do you?"

Felix looks up to the officer confused.

"Felix, there is a forest where people get slaughtered. The last victim was a kid named Han Jisung! Your potential-serial-killer roomie and best friend's name is Han Jisung. The only problem: your Han Jisung does not officially exist in our data. SO there are three possibilities: First, his identity is fake, maybe because he has a bad past, probably because of murder... Second, he just never was taken into the data, so he could have done anything and it wouldn't come in the register, because since his birth he just didn't exist. Third-"

"Third?", Felix asks insecure, not even understanding what his friend meant with the second point. It sounded scary though, so he hoped, it isn't the second one. And he understand the first one, so he hopes, this isn't it either. All his hopes lay on the third possibility.

Seungmin sighs.

"Third, you are schizophrenic, Felix. This guy really does not exist and you just made it up. That wouldn't explain why the last victim had the same name as your not-existing-friend and it would make you a suspect, as you new the victim's name before he was a victim, but it is probably still the easiest to explain..."

Felix gulps. Seungmin thinks he is schizophrenic. Could it really be, that Jisung does not exist. Could it really be, that Felix brain made it all up, that Felix has something to do with all these murders?

"Felix, it's not easy for me to say, but you should come to the station. A psychologist will look at you and if our hypotheses is true and you have a personality disorder... I am sorry."

"Seungmin...", tears made their way on Felix cheeks. "Seungmin, don't do this. Seungmin you know me."

Felix takes afew steps back to the wall. Seungmin follows him, slowly trying to grab Felix' hands.

The older one flinches back. Big tear drops rolling down his puffy cheeks. His eyes are getting red and he begins to whimmer scared.

"Please, Felix. Don't make this more difficult than it already is.

"Seungmin, I don't want to die! Seungmin, leave me alone. Seungmin! Go back. Go back! GO BACK!", Felix shouts and tries to run away, screaming his lungs out. Seungmin holds him back. He is trained for situations like this. Felix isn't really strong, so it was easy to hold him back physically. But Seungmin's heart got heavier from second to second and his own cheeks get wet with his own tears. Felix screams and screams and won't stop. And Seungmin knows exactly what he should do in a situation like this as a police officer, but he just couldn't bring himself to grab the teaser. He gulps. Felix screams louder. This time not just anything, but a name. He screams it out in the dark, quiet world, as if it is the last thing he would do before he dies.

"JISUNG!"

Seungmin stops. He freezes in his place and got somehow scared. Why does his friend scream this name? Why is this everything he can think about right now? Then the older one fainted. He stay unconcious in the officer's arms, dry tears staining his clothes and marking his cheeks. It was quiet. Too quiet for people like Seungmin. This silence is supicious. A few minutes he stayed there, not moving an inch. Then the chaos breaks out. The window of the room burst open, the door creaks and the plushies suddenly seem pretty alive. Seungmin won't lie. He is scared as shit right now. He runs backwards out of the room, Felix in his hands. He fastly closes the seat bealt of the passenger seat around his unconcious friend's waist. Then he jumps on his seat, starts the car, ignoring his bealtnad drives far over the speed limit. He looks in the rear mirror. He wish he didn't. On the otherwise empty street. In the light of a streetlight stands an army of plushies, looking pretty much alive, like the ones in Jeongin's latest game, FNAF. And if this wasn't enough of a shock, in the middle of them, placed like a leader, stands a guy with red eyes, ripped jeans, without any shirt and big black burnt wings. Seungmin's hairs stands up as Han Jisung's eyes bore through his brain. He tries his best to look at the street again, ignoring what he saw right now. But that's impossible, the picture is burnt into his brain. He comes to a red traffic light. Ignoring the vibrant colour he speeds up. No car in sight. Something mote shocking though. Han Jisung right under the traffic light. He vanishes and comes back in less than seconds, nearly making it look like he is an destroyed holograph. Seungmin eyes went big. The car crashes into the boy. Seungmin got lifted up. He wished he would have used the seat bealt. His head crashed against the car roof. Glass splitters, the car caught fire and still Seungmin could hear it, probably the last thing he would ever hear. His neck cracked. Everything went black.

...

As I thought about it, this chap lowkey gives me Case 143 vibes... witht the plushies. Wasn't planned. Congratulations to everyone who got it before me 😂
