"there was a huge earthquake in Busan. The main area affected by the earthquake is Yeonje-gu. The effect on rector scale is found to be 7.4. Many people are injured during the process of execution. A hostel was completely overtaken by the earthquake, and many young students are injured in the process. Everyone whose body was found has been sent to the hospital. Luckily, no dead bodies have been found yet."

Eunhi saw the headlines in her phone as she felt her stomach flip, her heart beating louder than ever.

"I was right when I felt dizzy..that was an earthquake.." she muttered as she wiped the sweat off of her forehead and rushed out of her room in a hurry.

"Tha- that was their dorm! Oh my god!" A tear escaped her eye as she dialled Jungkook's number. After several calls, no one picked up. She became more scared.

"It is like ten kilometres away from here.. I must find out about them." She said to herself as she went back to her room and looked around. She picked up the yellow hoodie from the chair and wore it over her pyjamas.

It was 11 pm. There was hustle in her dorm as everyone felt the waves of shock from the earthquake. Luckily, no one in her area was injured as it wasn't that powerful where she lived.

She wore her shoes and went out. The security stopped her. "Where are you going at this hour?" He yelled.

"Some close people of mine are victims of the earthquake... please let me go." She said with a lump in her throat.

"Huh? Sorry but the rules-" he said but got cut off by Eunhi. "Screw the rules! I want to go to them. Now!"

"Okay then go, fill this up." He handed her a pen and she filled in the notebook.

She went out and stopped a cab. Sitting in, she told the driver to drive to yeonje-gu. Whilst sitting, she got a call from Yoongi. "Sis, is everything okay? Are you okay?" He asked worriedly.

"Yes oppa I'm okay...but my friends aren't... they-" she sobbed, "they were in that dorm where there was the main area affected by the earthquake..."

Yoongi kept silent for a moment. "Go see them." She sighed. "I'm on my way."

--------

Black...

All he could see was black. His eyelids felt too heavy to open. But he could hear what was going on around him.

"Taehyung! Don't worry, you'll be fine!"

Jimin...

It was Jimin's voice. He was crying.

The stretcher went straight into the Operation theatre and Jimin stood outside, staring straight on the grey door in front of him.

Suddenly, he felt a hand on his shoulder. He turned around to see Eunhi.

"Jim-" she said but abruptly stopped when Jimin pushed his weight on her, wrapping his arms around her waist.

She hesitated at first, but snaked her arms to his neck and rubbed his back. "Are you okay? Where are Tae and Jungkook?" She whispered.

Jimin couldn't answer. He kept sobbing, making the yellow material on Eunhi's body wet with his unstoppable tears. He nuzzled onto her shoulder, unable to utter anything.

"What happened?" Eunhi asked, voice cracking.

Jimin lifted his head up, taking a step back. Eunhi noticed his white shirt with so many spots of blood. The lower of his shirt was painted red and Eunhi gasped.

-Flashback-

"Taehyung-ah!" Jimin screamed as he saw his friend, closing his eyes and breathing heavily. He somehow made his way to the man who was laying without any motions.

The shaking suddenly stopped. Jimin picked Taehyung carefully as he noticed how much blood Taehyung had lost. He walked to the window and jumped down. Without any harm, he landed safely on the ground outside as he looked around, a lot of students rushing out, away from the building.

He carried Taehyung to them, and saw Soobin standing in the crowd, a horrified look on his face. "Hyung!" He said as he saw Taehyung unconscious.

"Where is Jungkook?" Jimin asked worriedly, placing Taehyung's body on the grass. "I- I don't know. I was walking here and he was still in the room.."

"What!?" Jimin gasped and looked around. Jungkook couldn't be seen anywhere. "You mean he is still inside?!"

"Maybe.." Soobin said and Jimin gritted his teeth. "I'll go find him. Take care of Tae and send him first if an ambulance arrives!" He said as he rolled his sleeves. The blood on his shirt signifying how much Taehyung was injured.

"Wait!" Others screamed but Jimin quickly ran inside the building, rushing to Jungkook's room.

He pushed the door and went in, only to find an unconscious Jungkook, laying under the weight of the shelf.

"Jungkook!" He screamed as he made his way to him, pushing the shelf off of him. He saw his leg that was badly injured and bleeding.

He rubbed his cheeks, in an attempt to see if he makes any movement. But he doesn't...

The building starts shaking again. This was the second wave of the earthquake hitting the area.

He picks Jungkook in his arms, groaning as his arm was injured too. But he didn't care. His friends were his first priority and he needed to save both Taehyung and Jungkook, even if it took his own life to save them.

He walks past the corridors in an attepmt to rush outside, as the buildings could collide too.

Reaching out, he sees many ambulances and fire brigades. He rushes to where he left Taehyung, but he wasn't there. Maybe Soobin took him to the hospital already.

He runs to an ambulance as he pushes Jungkook's limb body on the thin black stretcher. "Please get to the hospital as fast as you can! My friends are injured badly!" He yells, running a hand through his hair.

-end of flashback-

"Y-you mean both of them.." Eunhi stutters and Jimin nods, while sitting on a chair.

"Don't worry, they'll be fine." She reassures him and he doesn't respond.

"I am disappoined at myself." He speaks up. "Why isn't that me? Why are my friends suffering? That should be me!" He groans, clutching his arm.

"No Jimin! Stop! You're hurt too. Let the doctors see you." Eunhi rushes as she calls out a nurse and she checks Jimin. "Follow me to the room please."
She says.

Eunhi helps Jimin walk as he drags himself, too exhausted to move.

The nurse checks his arm and puts a bandage around his wrist. "That's internal injury. I'll give you medicines for that." She looks at Eunhi. "Are you his girlfriend?"

Eunhi stutters, "n-no, I'm his friend." The nurse nods. "I need you to complete the formalities..come with me." Eunhi nods before glancing at Jimin, who was breathing heavily on the hospital bed, his eyes shut closed.

"Okay."

-------

"Taehyung!" Jimin says as he enters the small room, in front of him laying his best friend, with several bandages around his arms and a white bandage around his head.

Taehyung weakly smiles at him. Jimin rushes towards him and gently hugs him.

Taehyung groans as he opens his mouth to say something, but he suddenly goes still.

"Are you okay chim?" He whispers and Jimin nods. "I'm completely fine."

Taehyung looks around the room, eyes searching for someone. He looks into Jimin's eyes. "Where is Kookie?"

Jimin's smile disappers and his lips turn into a straight line. Taehyung breathes. "He's okay.. right?"

Jimin doesn't respond. He holds Taehyung's hand. "You should first take care of yourself."

Taehyung shakes his head nervously. "Where is Kookie?" They get abrupted with a click on the front door.

Both of them turn to see who is it, and when they see, their eyes widen in shock.

Eunhi appears, with Jungkook who was sitting in a wheelchair.
