Life or Death

Love Yourself Today

Chaewon sits besides a small campfire Hyejoo has made as she finds herself comfortable and warm in Hyejoo’s jacket while she sits outside admiring the stars, Chaewon can’t help herself from watching Hyejoo’s raven black hair blow in the wind as she stands there like a doll 

 

Beautiful and still 

 

“It’s getting cold Hyejoo, you should come back in now” Chaewon tells her softly 

 

She sees Olivia turn and enter back into the cave sitting besides her by the fire 

 

Hyejoo goes bold intertwining their fingers but she’s fairy rough still as she’s still learning to be gentle but Chaewon still smiles as her cheeks turn rosy as they watch the fire flicker infront of their eyes as the night breeze becomes stronger

 

Hyejoo watches her slowly fall asleep slowly falling resting her head on her broad shoulder her golden hair moving in the wind She brushes away the strands of hair near her face as half asleep Chaewon hugs her arm keeping it tightly held near her chest Hyejoo smiles at how cute she becomes when she’s asleep

 

Hyejoo watches her sleep as she continues to smile but stops remembering that she’ll leave at some point which leaves her with no reason to build a friendship especially since it feels like she’s hiding something from her 

 

She soon falls asleep resting her head on top of Chaewon’s, but Chaewon wakes up to her head on a grey wolf getting scared as she sits up quickly seeing Olivia in that state she stands up leaving the cave all to herself as she sits to calm herself down before feeling two hands on her shoulder and a soft breath of her neck 

 

“Are you alright…? You looked shocked”

She screams only to hear Olivia wince from her being so loud

 

“You going to give us away, its just me calm down” 

She feels Hyejoo’s arms wrap around her as she rests her head on Chaewon’s shoulder

“Bad dream? Or .. ?”

 

“Its nothing don’t worry too m-much” Chaewon feels her cheeks warm up with Hyejoo’s face so close to hers as Hyejoo looks up at the sun rising above them She stops and stands back up 

 

“I assume you want to leave already, come on we can go try find a way out before night comes we have enough time.. Hopefully” 

 

“No its fine really you don’t have to rush yourself for me” 

 

“Sigh,”

 

Hyejoo takes her jacket off Chaewon’s shoulders and walks ahead of her, Chaewon picks up a stick for self defense before catching up with Hyejoo 

 

“Wait up!”

“Walk ahead of me you snail.” She replies coldly 

 

Chaewon walks ahead of Olivia holding her stick tightly incase if any wolves come out again as Hyejoo walks behind her so she can protect Chaewon from anything that might attack her form any side  They find themselves walking for hours with nothing but the same old trees everywhere 

 

“Bull.. We won’t be getting out of here anytime soon will we”

“Come on Hyejoo, have a little bit of hope i promise you we’ll get somewhere” 

 

Hyejoo starts walking ahead sick of seeing the same trees everywhere 

“Hyejoo wait up..!”

 

She was running but Gowon could barely catch up to her slowly falling behind panting as she sees her tall figure slowly disappear in the distance, she forces herself to slowly walk behind following her footprints being quiet so no other animals know of her presence 

 

“Why is she so fast..” 

 

Gowon tries to speed up a bit so Olivia becomes visible in the distance as she sees her just standing still 

 

“Hm why did she..?” Gowon finally catches up with Olivia 

“Why the sudden stop-”

 

There’s a pathway surrounded by darkness which is connected to the forest, Gowon had seen nothing like it before remembering Jinsoul’s words 

 

“Something will affect all 4 of you”

 

But she ignores the negatives for the moment, trying not to think too deeply as she knows this is meant to occur hopefully it would benefit them such as build a friendship between the four of them why else would Jinsoul tell her? Plus it didn’t sound like a warning of something dangerous

 

“Come on Hyejoo lets go… it could be the only way out” 

 

She walks ahead and ends up running towards it as Olivia stops her

 

“Chaewon don’t!” She grabs her shoulder yanking her back towards her making her fall in Hyejoo’s chest She wraps her arms around Gowon “Don’t be so reckless.. You could die look how thin the path is”  Gowon blushes being right against Olivia’s chest she listens to Olivia’s heart beating its a bit excited 

 

“O-okay.. But what do w-” She falls suddenly but doesn’t land on the floor but she finds herself sitting on a grey wolf she doesn’t have the time to recap what just happened only finding herself screaming as she starts running on the thin narrow path way as it crumbles behind them she grips onto Olivia’s fur closing her eyes as she hears the path breaking under them

 

“HYEJOOAHHH” she screams she feels the wind hitting her harder holding on for dear life 

 

Gowon stops when begins to ache as they have been running for a couple minutes now as she slightly opens her eyes to see the path infront of her, there was still awhile to go but it was pitch black the only light she had was from Olivia’s eyes as they shone like headlights despite the minor glow not helping much she watched the path breaking closing her eyes again afraid if they would both end up dying

 

But Gowon Had Hope. 

 

Olivia had been running for awhile now, Gowon finally decides to open her eyes again to see a light shining on top of them 

 

“Olivia where are we..” Olivia shifts back out of exhaustion as they find themselve rolling into a area of a darker forest where the light didn’t reach Olivia lays there with her eyes closed out of breath as Gowon comforts her “You did well out there… we aren’t dead yet..”

 

They lay there until Gowon helps Olivia up when she finally catches her breath 


“Well… lets go again..”

 

Gowon stands helping Olivia up as they hear the sound of the leafs on the floor crunching to see a taller figure then both of them glare down at them both “Girls, why did you run away from the mansion. I told all of you to not enter the forest” They see a tall blonde figure look down at both of them with a clipboard and a ruler before she approaches them both grabbing their arms hitting it with the ruler, it leaves a bruise on Gowon and Olivia flinches as she drags both of the girls out of the forest into the sunlight, Olivia hisses not seeing sunlight shine this brightly ever since she first came into the LOOΠΔVERSE

 

Olivia talks to herself finding herself in deep thought not noticing Gowon looking over at her in fear 

 

“I would've fought back.. Only if i had any energy left.. “ She finds walking hard as she breathes heavily while they get dragged to a large castle in the middle of nowhere,

Where did duo end up after almost dying on the trip here? Who was this mysterious rude woman who had just hit the both of them?  They slowly get closer to the castle hearing the creaking of the doors as they opened, was this the gateway to hell?
