They couldn't go outside, they stayed hidden.

The sirens were echoing loudly in that dark night. People were running here and there to check what happened. The street was busy like a hunny comb filled with bees. The whispers of the people were turning into a buzz. Everyone had their own conjectures about the tragic death the members people who used live in this house, faced. Women were watching at the huge flames from far, keeping their palms on their cheeks with astonishment, showing somewhat sorrow in their faces while holding from their kid's hands. The men rather tried to put down the fire than watching it burning.

But none of them were aware that, all seven guys and the girl had escaped, alive,

A car was driving at high speed down the street, away from the heart of the town, carrying an unconscious and injured girl with a mentally broken and physically fatigued boy. And another six men were hiding underground. One was shot on his leg, Others were worn out because of fighting, they were covered with blood, their shirts were sticking because of sweat.

They slowly dragged themselves into the dark basement of the antique shop. Jimin and Hoseok were carefully carrying the unconscious blonde guy, staggering and swaying at sometimes.

Yoongi coughed as a cloud of dust surrounded them when he opened the door to the basement. Spiders had decorated the room with their webs, claiming the space to themselves. No human soul had touch this ground for years. The doors were cracked, switches to the bulbs were no longer working, the walls were covered with an opaque layer of dust that made the white walls turn in to grey. The only way they could see things was with the help of the gleaming moonlight and the faded light of their almost dying phones.

"Hyung, he needs treatments," Jimin turned to Jin with a misery on his face, as he and Hoseok rested the body on a dusty mattress Taehyung pulled off from a corner.

Since Namjoon was down, the leader's place was automatically shifted to the elder. He was rubbing his forehead, sitting on a box faced to the lying body. He only had Taehyung's Half torn shirt to stop Namjoon's bleeding.

Taehyung was allergic to heat, he was sweating than others, his body was unusually heating up making him uncomfortable. So Yoongi ripped apart his shirt making his state more moderating to  breathe.

"Search for a light"

Seokjin couldn't give up on them. He was a person who once fought to stand up but ebbed cause he wasn't acute enough to at least stand for himself even. And now, he had to decide the next step, a step that may effect not only his but five more lives, Will he be able to win this time? Panicking won't help, he knew that from experience. He has to save them. this time he has to win,

Keeping Taehyung near Namjoon to watch over him, others started searching for some source of light they can use. Hoseok sneaked to the upper floor and found a dry matchbox laid in a rack of the storage room. It wasn't difficult to make a small fire in the cement floor, there were more than enough dry woods to use. It was enough to light up the dark basement.

Jin aimed the touch of his phone to Namjoon's wound. The light of his phone was not strong enough to check the wound properly earlier, but now with the help of the small fire they made, it was much easier than before,

Namjoon was lucky,

The bullet hadn't gone that far inside his thigh muscles. The thick muscles blocked the way of the bullet. Jin pulled out the metal bullet which was covered with a layer of blood. Namjoon didn't even let out a small hiss nor whimper of pain. He couldn't feel the anything because he was unconscious. He didn't have the risk of losing blood either. Seokjin removed Namjoon's shirt with the help of Jimin and used it as a bandage since Taehyung's ripped shirt was soaking from blood, it couldn't be used. It was a good thing that Jin put that bottle in his pocket after treating Y/n. He forgot to hand it to Jungkook before they were separated because of the all the rumble jumble. But it turned out to be good for the wounded blonde guy,

Yoongi was standing near Jin, he glanced at him, with that agony throbbing heart, "Will he be ok?" his voice was fainted, hurt.

Yoongi wasn't the one who easily gets emotional. He was cold and tough but now seeing his brother sleeping like a dead one made him scared. He doesn't want to lose the only true family he has. Blinking his eyes rapidly, he tried not to shed tears, while watching Namjoon laying motionlessly in the dusty sponge mattress. Thankfully, the semi-darkness was helping him to hide his emotions from others,

"It's not deep, he will be ok, for now, it's better to leave him unconscious. I'm worried about Y/n, I doubt she'll make it,"

A long sigh escaped from the elder as he thinks about the fate of the girl. Will she make it alive? She once escaped death. Will she escape it this time too? A strong voice inside says that Y/n will make it. She is the destined one. The chosen one from the universe. If fate is true she has to make it.

It was Hoseok's trun to keep a watch. He, Seokjin and Yoongi were shifting turns to keep an eye on Namjoon. He was immersed in a endless pool of thoughts that comprised various assumptions and envisions about the future.

They somehow survived, but the forthcoming future was hazy with the blizzard. What is going to happen next? If they will get caught, they will be eradicated for sure. They will be doomed. After you mess up with Ki Sung once, there was no turning back. Now they had to fight against him, the one they couldn't undertake after years of struggle. The dark orbs of Hoseok were landed on their leader, but his thoughts were somewhere else. He was thinking something the others weren't ruminating.

He actually has hope, a hope that this is their chance to change their lives. This may be the key to open the door to a new world,

This man always thinks differently than others. He had that ego, that made him stronger. Even his body was weak his mind was still full of aspiration and vitality. The stamina that was buried inside his soul voiced him,

"This is your chance to change your fate"

Without knowing, his eyes twinkled because of the spark of light kindle inside him. The shadows of the flames were dancing in the wall like they were trying to manifest the idea Hoseok had. A small smile crept into his lips. He continued staring at Namjoon, but this time he wasn't the guy who was miserable and lost one minute ago. He was a different man. A man who had hope,

Everyone gathered close to the fire as the night got colder,

Jimin was continuously tapping his fingers on the box where he was sitting. Just like others, he was lost in his thoughts. He looked at the man who was resting his head on a dusty pile of clothes. He didn't seems to care about that since he was too enervated to think about it. Taehyung's mouth was parted because he was breathing from his mouth as well. The boy has fallen asleep because of tiredness. Jimin knows that he was weaker than others. He gets tired easily,

His mind ran to the past, the day he met Taehyung when he was a total stranger to the city. He was his only friend, his best friend. They faced everything together until this very moment since the day they met. Jimin heaved a sigh,

He mountained from the ground and stepped near Taehyung. He sat down near him, leaning his friend's head on his lap, making him comfortable to sleep. The sleepy man mumbled a 'thanks' while dreaming. Jimin softly chuckled while swiping the fallen sticky bangs from his face. He recalled the past memories they had together. From the moment he met Taehyung and till the moment they unexpectedly discovered the truth of Y/n, Jimin's head was jammed with so many questions. But he didn't want to answer them. The only thing he wants now is to breathe and stay alive at this moment, today they will survive,

They were staying there all the night till the shades of dawn alighting the mother earth with a start of a new day,

"We can't stay here like this forever, we have to get out from here, Namjoon needs proper treatments, " Yoongi broke the silence.

He was right, they can't stay like this,

There was no food or water. And the radiation of the burnt house was escalating the thirst.Their throats were dry. It was like living in a desert. They had to move from underground. Seokjin stood up from his place. It looked like he made up his mind for something,

"I am going out," His words were stern. They didn't sound like Jin they know. The way he was speaking was different,

"But hyung-" Taehyung was awake at that moment. He woke up because of thirst. He was gulping down his own saliva to wet his dry throats. He looked at Seokjin, anxiously.

"I won't fail this time, you have to trust me," The elder one's eyes were full of determination. The hate of Ki Sung has turned into a resolution of staying alive, to fight against him. Others knew that there's no point in standing against him. They didn't dispute his decision.

"I'm coming with you," Jimin stood up from his place.

Without replying to him, Jin turned to the stairs and climbed up. Taking his silence as a yes, the other member followed him from behind. They both sneaked out from the old shop with utmost chary of not getting seeing by anyone.

They saw the ruins of their house as they stepped outside. It was devastated, meeting the ground completely. Jimin wobbled his cheeks, seeing the house turned in to pile of ashes and dusts. Slowly they made it near the house, getting covered to the shades of the trees. They were the masters at these things. Bangtan boys weren't named as the best group for no reason after all,

A car drove away from the broken house as they reached near the house. Both Jimin and Jin stayed under covered till the vehicle completely vanished from their sights. Through the opened window of the car, the two guys saw the face of the man, wearing a smile of because of his vanquishment. He was here to claim his victory once again. But this time, he didn't win at all,

Luckily the minivan they used last night was safely parked away from the house in the garage. The garage embodied with the house, it was a separate small building near the house. With constant vigilance, they both get into the building. Even it the garage was damaged by the exploration, the van was unharmed since it was inside it. After they drove to the antique shop and met the other members, all of them left the place. The van drove out from the city. To a place, they would be safe. The place that the Kim family used to live, the mansion Seokjin once used to live,

This is the last place Ki Sung would guess,

With time, they were setting down. Namjoon heeled pretty quickly. They kept silent for nearly a month until their leader spoke one day,

"It's time "
