"Tell me now of the very souls that look alike, look alike
Do you know the stranglehold covering their eyes?
If I call on every soul in the land on the move
Tell me if I'll ever know a blessing in disguise"

"The curse ruled from the underground down by the shore
And their hope grew with a hunger to live unlike before
And the curse ruled from the underground down by the shore
And their hope grew with a hunger to live unlike before"

 

They finally left the warehouse.

Kris felt like he could breathe again.

The dead girl no longer watched.

Chen kept glancing over his shoulder.

He expected her to be there.

Coming after him again.

Xiumin was unnaturally calm.

He killed another Anomaly.

He had to track down another.

Luhan was furious.

He was going to find Yuri and that guy.

That's where his plan ended.

Lay was tired.

Healing was hard work.

It was time to find the red haired girl.

Tao was conflicted.

Red haired girl?

Like the one Luhan helped up?

She hadn't seemed threatening.

But nothing was as it seemed.

5 hours until the sun would rise.

Some didn't want daylight to come.

But for some,

the night would never end.

 

 

"CRICKET"

Silvers scream pierced the silence.

Slicing the tension.

Cricket looked scared.

"Silver?!"

Cricket ran to the stairs.

Taver followed.

Otto ran out from behind Chanyeol.

She wouldn't be left behind.

Chanyeol was right behind Otto.

Baekhyun.

D.O.

Kai.

They looked at each other.

Then sprinted for the stairs.

Suho and Sehun stayed.

Locked in position.

Staring at each other.

"CRICKET"

Silver couldn't see.

One moment she was next to Yuri.

Kneeling beside her bed.

her hair.

Watching the younger girl sleep.

But the next moment,

Darkness.

It was terrifying.

She couldn't escape.

She thrashed.

But she couldn't see anything.

It was suffocating.

She began screaming.

She imagined the darkness seeping inside her.

She felt the darkness seeping inside of her.

Silver couldn't breathe.

Silver.

Couldn't.

Breathe.

Silver couldn't move.

She panicked.

She screamed.

Called out for someone.

Anyone.

But nobody came.

Not Yuri.

Not Cricket.

Not Otto.

Not Taver.

Not Ace.

No one was coming.

Silver just kept screaming.

"CRICKET"

Cricket slammed himself against the door.

It wouldn't open.

Silver was still inside.

Screaming.

Cricket was panicking.

He didn't know what to do.

Otto was crying.

Taver was freaking out.

Silver was still screaming.

Yuri was still silent.

And Ace hadn't come back.

Cricket kicked the door
