"Sehun-ah!?" Zitao continued to bang his fist continually on the large metal wall that had replaced the portal.
    He had only just slipped through and then as the group turned to look at the portal and await for Sehun's arrival, the portal seemed to have closed up.
    A hand lightly rested on his shoulder and he stopped hitting the wall for a moment and turned to see the owner of the hand.
    "That's not going to help us," Yifan said firmly, Junmyeon adding from behind, "Sehun will be fine, Jongin will check up on us and find out it's just him and then teleport him out..."
    Zitao turned back to the wall and sighed, letting his sore fists slip off and slung his head towards the others, asking quietly, "What about us? How are we going to get back?"
    No one answered, Chanyeol looked at Kyungsoo and Kyungsoo looked at Junmyeon, who tensed up before walking over to Zitao and the used-to-be portal.
    "It's either closed because it does that anyway or we've exceeded the limit and it needs a rest, it wouldn't just close for personal reasons and it wouldn't just close for the sake of it, I think we should just leave it for now and wait it out, while we're doing that we can see if we can try and get the cure here, instead of trying to get the box here..."
    "You think something's happened!?" Kyungsoo asked, Junmyeon sighing and turning around, explaining, "I never said that, but if we can find an easier way then we might as well use it, okay?" He asked, eyes scanning over everybody for approval, some were hesitant, one of which was Zitao, but then all agreed and nodded, Yifan looking as unhappy as ever, but followed after everyone.
    After panicking too much over the loss of their only way back home, Zitao had never even took a small glance at the amazing and beautiful wonders of his, or their, home planet.
    Exo Planet.
    None of them remembered coming from Exo Planet of course, but just looking at the place, it did spark hidden memories in Zitao's mind.
    They were surrounded by long grass that came just at the knee's, getting longer and longer as they continued walking. They were walking towards a large tree, the biggest tree Zitao had ever seen, with elaborate shards of different colours of glass hanging from long, twisting golden branches, and leaves which looked like glass themselves.
    The whole tree sparkled and was full of life, in which as soon as you noticed you could tell, it was the tree of life.
    In the distance Zitao couldn't see anything else but other planets in the bleeding sky above as the sun, bigger than on earth, set.

"When will I be let out?" Luhan asked in a dull tone, Jongdae sighing and standing up from the bed, grabbing their plates and piling them on top of each over.
    "Luhan, you hurt Minseok, you've let out our secret base from the things that want to kill us, I don't personally agree with locking you in here but..."
    "I understand," he growled, head down as he flopped onto the bed and turned over, looking sick, but Jongdae knew he was far from that and sighed once again, unlocking the door as he picked the key out of his pocket, then locking it again once he was on the outside.
    "We're back!" Jongin yelled from the living room, and Jongdae with the plates, hurried slightly to see what Jongin meant with 'we're' and emerged from the hallway into the living room and dining room.
    Jongin was crouched down, breathing heavily, Sehun by his side and asking if he was okay.
    "Ah, Sehun, what are you doing here!?" Jongdae asked as he slipped over to the far side of the long room and over to the open kitchen.
    "The portal, it locked up just as I was about to go in last," he explained, strolling over to the chairs and giving himself a seat and giving a large yawn and a stretch.
    After regaining himself, Jongin stood up straight and walked over to Jongdae as he cleaned the plates up, sighing as he came over, "How's Luhan?" He asked in a hushed tone, quiet enough for Sehun to be unable to hear.
    "Fine, he's very depressed, it comes off him in waves Jongin," Jongdae hissed, trying to press it onto Jongin and make him understand that instead of locking the upset male in the room, he had to talk to him, because if anything the whole thing was making Luhan worse.
    Jongin shook his words off easily, too easily, before walking over back to Sehun.
    Jongdae finished washing the plates and cutlery and went on to drying, giving a few glances at Sehun and Jongin continued standing, obviously explaining the Luhan and Minseok situation as Sehun showed several shocked expressions.
    Finally Sehun slouched back as he had been sitting in a very stiff manner, and Jongin disappeared quickly.
    "Do you need help with that?"
    Jongdae almost dropped the plate he was drying as Baekhyun's voice appeared from nowhere, but instead of getting angry he laughed, getting back his composure.
    "You scared the hell out of me!" He nudged the slightly smaller male, "Don't scare me like that," before reducing the laugh to a small chuckle in which Baekhyun joined in with him.
    "Huh?" Jongdae stopped drying the looked at Baekhyun who had only just noticed Sehun on Jongin's sofa bed.
    "Ah, Sehun-ah! You're back! Where are the others?" He asked, Sehun calling over from the corner, "They're on Exo Planet I presume, the portal closed up..."
    "I hope they're okay," Yixing breathed out, suddenly entering the conversation, a very dull looking Minseok following him from behind, nodding towards his statement.
    Yixing smiled though as he got closer towards Sehun and bent down, passing a small hug, Minseok doing the same, but Sehun held it on for longer, muttering some words into the olders ear, which made him flinch then smile and sit beside him.
    "When do you think we'll move?" Baekhyun asked towards Jongdae, who passed him the two plates to go and be put in their rightful place.
    "I don't know," Jongdae answered honestly, settling the cutlery back in the drawer and leaning against the working desktop.
    "I'm presuming soon, but I think Jongin will be sorting it out...we better make sure he doesn't do it all alone or he'll be stressed out too much," Jongdae explained, Baekhyun nodding in agreement, Jongdae explaining further as he took a glance towards the blocked up window, "I can sense something bad's going to happen soon...I honestly don't know whether to be really pissed off at Luhan or to feel...sad for him..."
    Suddenly he was surprised by something soft and light pecking him on the side of the face, which quickly grew crimson and hot as he realised what had just happened and snapped his head around to a chuckling Baekhyun.
    "Why did you do that?" He hissed, giving glances at the others to check if they had seen.
    "Because, in case something bad happens and I don't get another chance."

"You can talk to him, but...be careful with what you say," Jongin explained as he passed Sehun a key.
    Why on earth did he offer to do this?
    It was stupid, but he found himself unlocking the door anyway and entering and seeing Luhan...
    He was sitting up in his bed, dark rings under his eyes which looked themselves half dead.
    "Hi Sehun," his tone was low and dark.
    But Sehun inched forward anyway, gently placing the key in his pocket as he continued to make his way forward.
    "You can sit down," Luhan suggested, pointing to the bed, and hesitantly Sehun sat himself down.
    "Why did you...d-do that?" Sehun found himself asking questions before he could even say hello, but his heart was racing so much for an answer, and it hurt with the amount of pressure being suddenly put on it.
    Luhan gave out a large sigh, letting his neck and shoulders go limp as his head lolled backwards and hit the wall on which he was leaning against on the bed.
    "Because I was angry at Minseok, because I was drunk, because I..." he brought his head back up and looked at Sehun, "Because I loved him."
    Sehun was sure his heart was shattering more and more, and the pounding wasn't helping either.
    Luhan was in love with...Minseok.
    But why was he angry?
    Sehun wanted to ask desperately, but found himself biting his words back because he didn't want to be hurt with the truth anymore.
    He shouldn't have seen Luhan.
    "But then...you love me too, right?"
    Sehun was sure he was going to be sick.
    When did...
    "W-when...h-how d-did you f-find...out?" He was trembling to an extent his muscles hurt as much as his heart and his words tripped and tumbled over each over.
    "You look at me the same all the time Sehun..."
    His sight was going blurry, was he passing out?
    What was happening?
    Then as his sight focused, he realised Luhan was very close to him.
    But he was so shocked and nervous he couldn't move an inch.
    "It's okay though, I'll take it..."
    What was he doing?
    Was Luhan making fun of his feelings?
    Silently he could feel Luhan's long and elegant arms wrap around Sehun's cold neck and then he got closer and closer...
    And then he kissed him.
    Luhan kissed Sehun.
    Sehun didn't know if it was real, if it was fake, good, bad, it was all confusing, and he had dreamed of it better than that...
    "Lu...han..." Luhan parted his lips from Sehun's and while Luhan slowly turned his head towards the door, Sehun whipped his head around, eyes widening and face flushed as he started to resume his trembling.
    Minseok.
