Hoseok was finding it difficult to eat. Every mouthful made him cough. Trying to keep it down just caused more choking - lying down probably wasn't helping. As Taehyung brought another spoonful of tinned broth to his mouth Hoseok used his hand to wave him away weakly.
"I need to sit up."
Taehyung looked at Sydney who was scavenging through the passenger's bags that were scattered around the aircraft.
"Er..." he began, loud enough for her to hear but obviously trying to figure out what he was trying to say. The girl hurried to where the boys were.
"Can you... help me sit?" Hoseok hesitated with his English.
Sydney looked at the injured boy and then to Taehyung. She nodded and then moved to his broken legs.
"Help me," she said and looked at the other Korean. He nodded in understanding and grabbed Hoseok under his arms.
"Put him in the seat there," she gestured to the chair that Taehyung had been leaning on while eating. He seemed to understand.

"One, two, three." Pain shot through Hoseok's body. He was fighting the urge to convulse in their arms as they lifted him.
"You have to be quiet!" Sydney whispered harshly as he began to let out loud groans of pain. He gritted his teeth in an attempt to stop his exclamations. He felt the soft furnishing of the seat as he was placed down and the pain fled from his body.
"Thank you," he gasped.
Taehyung reached for the broth and continued feeding his hyung. It was much easier for Hoseok to eat now - there were no urges to cough. The tin was emptied within minutes and Hoseok rested his head against the headrest. The spongy surface was a welcome luxury.

Sydney was talking in English. Hoseok only recognised one of the words, "Yoongi". Taehyung must have heard this too as he sat up quickly and stared at the girl.
"Yoongi?" he queried, "He's our friend!"
"He's at my house."
Hoseok was relieved to hear Yoongi was alive.
"You haven't found anyone else yet?" the injured questioned Sydney who's shook her head. Well, Yoongi was a start.
Sydney hopped out of the plane and shouted for Taehyung who got up and limped over to the entrance. Hoseok couldn't quite see what was going on as the headrest obstructed his view.
"Here," the girl showed Hoseok a stretcher which would have been used in hospital. "I'll take you two to your friend."

After Hoseok was carefully and less painfully moved onto the stretcher, Taehyung and Sydney carried him off the plane and into the forest. She had given Taehyung and Hoseok many bags to hold, herself weighted down with half a dozen or so as well. They walked through the forest which had drained itself from all light until the three reached a large gate to an estate. Sydney instructed Taehyung to place Hoseok down and then began to rattle the gate's lock until it swung open.
Just as they took the stretcher through, the three heard shouts coming from behind them, deep in the forest.
Hoseok recognised them and lifted his back off his cradle, looking into the trees.
"Jungkook?"
