Hyoyeon washed her hands in the park's public washroom sink and quickly rinsed them off. Since no one was really doing 
much of  anything productive, Hyoyeon decided to give herself a quick break as  well. They'd been waiting for Taeyeon unnie's call from
Leeteuk's house, and in the meantime she'd been practicing her dances with Eunhyuk. 
   That anchovy face really is a hard-to-deal-with creature, she smiled to herself. She cleaned her hands off with a paper towel and left the  
washroom.
   As she came back outside, she looked around and saw that Eunhyuk wasn't where he was supposed to be. In fact, he was nowhere in
sight.
"I'm going to kill that anchovy face," Hyoyeon grimaced. She started walking around the park to look for him. She practically looked 
behind every tree and stump, every bush and branch to look for her missing dance partner.
   "Aigo, where is that babo?!" Hyoyeon exclaimed to herself. As she kept searching, she realized that isn't wasn't only just Eunhyuk who  
was missing, but it was the rest of her friends who'd come here together were completely gone too. 
   "That's weird, where could they be?" Hyoyeon muttered to herself.  At that moment, Hyoyeon caught a glance of Leeteuk's house in the  
corner of her eye. "Ah, Taeyeon unnie must've had an emergency call."  She started heading towards the house. "Jerks, they didn't even
 bother to tell me," Hyoyeon frowned. I wonder how bad the emergency is...." She started jogging  to the front door, her mind clouded 
with imaginative thoughts of what  could've been happening to her unnie...
   After what felt like a very long time to her, Hyoyeon stepped onto the front porch. She bent down to catch her breath swiftly, and then  
grabbed the doorknob and pulled the door open.
   "Hey, you ditchers--!" Hyoyeon started. But before she could  finish, her eyes widened and she let out a terrified scream. Because  
right in front of her was the unconscious bodies of Yesung, Eunhyuk and Donghae. Both Yesung and Eunhyuk were bleeding and 
soaking the  floor beneath them, while Donghae was bruised with dark black and purple spots all over his skin. 
   Omona...what happened? Hyoyeon did everything she could to swallow her fears and hang onto any common sense she had left. She
 grabbed an umbrella lying by the side of the door to  use as a weapon and ran deeper into the house, hoping to find the  culprit. However,
 when she reached the living room, she found she  could not find the strength to continue.
   Because there lie more lifeless and injured bodies of Kangin, Siwon, Sungmin and Hankyung. In the view of the kitchen she could see  
Ryeowook and Shindong as well. The once beautiful house was now a mess; the  couches were ripped with what seemed to be knife marks 
striking deep,  paintings were hanging or falling off the walls, picture frames were broken or punched out, vases were lying in millions of
 pieces on the floor, some tables and chairs had been cleanly snapped in half, there was trash all over the floors, lights were broken and to 
complete it all there were light bloodstains smeared everywhere amongst it. It really was a dreadful scene for one to take in all at once.
   Terror striking her heart, Hyoyeon dropped the umbrella and fell to  her knees. She felt herself freeze all over, without knowing what to  
do next. The scene she was witnessing at the moment was enough to make her on the verge of turning into a madwoman.
   Hold on,what about my unnies and dongsaengs? Hyoyeon thought. Frantically attempting to wipe away any dreaded thoughts she had,  
Hyoyeon picked up the umbrella again and continue to search around the house. She ran upstairs and into the basement, searching behind 
every door and closet. And even in the very end when she tore the house (which had already been quite rummaged and destroyed enough) 
she couldn't find anyone else anywhere, apart from the bodies scattered  around the house.
   With the last amount of sanity and calmity Hyoyeon had left, she whipped out her cellphone and called for emergency help. She found she  
could barely talk; her voice was hoarse and in whispers while there were tears of terror and sadness flowing uncontrollably out of her  
eyes (and Hyoyeon was normally a tough and sensible  girl that almost never cried for anything). When she finished, she closed her phone 
and did her best to  turn away from the terrible imagery. With the amount of time she had  left, she quickly rummaged through the mess of 
the house to find a first aid kit, which she used to prevent any more blood loss or  injuries as well as she could. She found she couldn't do much 
in the  end, so it only took her shortminutes to complete her helpless task.
   When Hyoyeon was finally done, she slumped down by the front door  to wait for the paramedics to arrive.
   "H...Hyo....y..yeon..." a quiet and struggling voice sounded suddenly.
   Hyoyeon's head jerked up and her right hand went instinctively to grab the umbrella. With widened eyes, she scanned her surroundings.  
Her first aid venture had taken her back near the front door and she saw nobody in sight apart from Eunhyuk, Yesung and Donghae lying 
there.
    "Nu...nu goyah?" she said in the strongest voice she could manage.
   "I...it's....me..." the hoarse voice sounded again. Hyoyeon followed her eyes to direction of where the voice was coming from and  
realized who'd said it.
    "Eunhyuk oppa?" she finally responded. She saw that his eyes were struggling to stay open in order to converse with her, and even
 such a situation he was trying to force one of his charismatic gummy smiles  at her. He'd lost so much blood, and one of his arms was
 in a very awkward and painful position. Hyoyeon dropped the umbrella immediately and crawled over to him as fast as she could and 
grabbed his hand. She held it and squeezed as tightly as she could, as if trying to confirm that he was actually there and still alive.
   "Eunhyuk oppa," she spoke frantically. "Kinchena? What happened?"
   "Y....you...b...babo," Eunhyuk replied slowly. "D....do...I...l..loook fine...to you?" He tried smiling at her again.
   Hyoyeon couldn't help but smile back. "You should be fine, you still have the strength to make fun of me like always."
   "I...I'm....glad you're safe."
   Hyoyeon was extremely taken aback by those words. He's worried about me...? Hyoyeon was about to respond back to him but all of a  
sudden Eunhyuk's hand went limp in Hyoyeon's grip. His eyes slowly closed again and his head slumped to the side.
    "EUNHYUK OPPA, WAKE UP!!" Hyoyeon screeched in horror as she shook Eunhyuk's slumped and bleeding body. Her hands were now 
covered in the brightest shade of a terrible red, and it blended in with the clear transparency of her tears. 
 She'd only left for a second, and  now Hyoyeon looked at the terror displayed in a magnificient yet very  
tragic manner in front of her. Eunhyuk, Yesung, Kangin, Donghae,  Siwon, Ryeowook, Sungmin, Shindong & Hankyung were lying scattered  
around Leeteuk's house, all unconscious and injured, some even bleeding heavily. Her own unnies and dongsaengs were nowhere to be  
seen, and Leeteuk, Heechul, Kibum and Kyuhyun had also mysteriously dissapeared.
   At that moment, a resonating sound indicated the opening of the front door. Hyoyeon looked towards the door, and after hearing various  
rushing footsteps, paramedics and police appeared in the room where Hyoyeon was holding on to Eunhyuk.
   "Whoa, what happened here?" the man who seemed to the leader gawked. Paramedics suddenly rushed towards the unconscious men and  
helped them onto stretchers.
   "Please," Hyoyeon pleaded. "Help them quickly." She did her best to wipe her tears away so as to not show any signs of weakness and helped  
Eunhyuk onto a stretcher.
   The paramedics were indeed truly efficient, as everyone was in an ambulance and rushed away in a matter of minutes. As Hyoyeon walked  
past Donghae's stretcher, she heard him subconsciously mutter Yoona's name with an extremely pained voice and expression. She had to keep  
walking faster in order to stop the terrible twisting feeling in her own heart. By now, a crowd had gathered in front of the house, and for  
some reason Hyoyeon wanted nothing more than to shoo them all away.
   "Ma'am," a middle-aged paramedic man called out to her. "If you would go this way please." He pointed towards the ambulance with  
Eunhyuk and Donghae's stretchers.
   Hyoyeon shook her head frantically. "But my unnies and dongsaengs are still missing!" she exclaimed. "I can't just leave!"
   "Ma'am, I'm sure you can just leave it to the police--"
   "But they're MY FRIENDS!"
   "We don't have much time, could you please just come along so you can sign some papers and take care of some business?"
   "Sir, you don't seem to understand--"
   "WHAT CAN YOU DO IF YOU STAY?!" The paramedic was clearly short-tempered, and he quickly got inside the ambulance. It was for the best  
too, because Hyoyeon found that she was at a loss for words at that comment. What can I do.....? Her heart  with a heavy feeling, Hyoyeon  
climbed into the back of the ambulance to join the paramedic. When she caught sight of Eunhyuk and Donghae's covered selves on the  
stretchers, she suddenly felt nauseous and wanted to get out of there as fast as she could.
   "Miss, if you could sit still please," the paramedic said sternly with low patience. Hyoyeon immediately felt embarassed of herself and  
moved closer to Eunhyuk's stretcher. Without thinking, she reached up looked for his hand and grabbed it and held it tightly as a way of  
distracting herself from tearing up. His hand was so cold and limp, so different from his normal restless and energetic self. Luckily, the  
paramedic didn't seem to notice, otherwise he probably would've stopped her.
   Hyoyeon sat in the same position and held Eunhyuk's hand for the entire ride to the hospital, which had to be the longest ride of her life.
 




  Yoona slowly squeezed her eyes opened.
   All she could see was a pitch blackness around her, and her head felt dizzy for some reason.
   Ohhh, where am I? She was about to feel around so as to give herself about where she was, but then realized her hands were tied down. At  
that moment, she also realized that her surroundings were likely not dark and black at all, and that she was wearing a blindfold.
   Aigo, eotteoke... she groaned to herself. She felt her heart thumping violently against her chest as a result of the terror, and  
she had never been so afraid in her life before. But through the rushing feelings of dangers, she knew that she had to get out of this  
mess as quickly as possible, because the lives of all her friends were in danger.
   
  She remembered it clearly.
 
   Her phone suddenly rang when she and Donghae were sitting on the park bench and sharing an ice cream sandwich together. They laughing  
and joking like a perfect couple together when suddenly she felt a strange vibration in her pocket. The strangest part, however, was that it stopped  
immediately after the first ring.
   "Yah, it's probably Taeyeon unnie," Yoona had said, without even checking her phone.
  "Aigo, what is that hyung doing now?" Donghae laughed. "I never thought she'd actually end up havin a real emergency." They stood up  
and laughed together, and ran to gather up the rest.
   Together in a huge group they rushed over to the house screaming, whistling and cheering "PARK BORAM!! PARK BORAM!!" like crazy fools.  
(A/N Park Boram is Leeteuk's nickname, and it is to imply that he is a player or lady's man). They were too happy and in their own little  
world to notice the suspicious shadows lurking all around them.
   And it all happened in a flash.
   Yoona had stepped onto the front porch when she heard and agonizing scream sounding out behind her. She whirled around to see Yesung's  
knees buckle and him falling to the ground, his head bleeding. Behind him was a man dressed incompletely black with a bandana covering his  
face. carrying a long metal pole of some sort. She cried out in alarm, and before she knew it more people dressed in black appeared, both men  
and women and approached her friends in a flash and started to knock them out violently with various weapons and methods. She saw 
Seohyun slump to the ground after a white cloth was pressed to her face, and same went for the rest of her unnies as well. They were knocked
 out in matters of seconds, and there wasn't even enough time react or even scream for help. All the guys were doing their best to fend off the
 attacks, but they were hopelessly outnumbered.
   Yoona realized she was the only one left unnoticed, and she decided to do the best thing in that moment despite her fears. She slowly  
pulled her phone out of her back pocket with shaking hands.
   All of sudden, she felt a sharp pain strike the back of her head. She cried out in pain and her phone dropped to the floor. She turned  
around to find herself face to face with a woman dressed in a black jumpsuit. Her face was too covered by a black bandana, but her long,  
blonde flowing hair made her stand out from the rest of the goons. In her hands was a metal rod she'd just use to strike Yoona, as there
 was still blood coated near the end of it. 
   The pain caused Yoona's head to spin and she felt couldn't concentrate. But still, she held her ground. Her eyes sharpened weakly and she  
glared at the masked woman. Taking all the strength she had left, she turned around and kicked the woman square in the side with a loud cry.
Taken by surprise, the woman stumbled sideways and fell down, her weapon falling out of her black gloved hands. Yoona, stumbling from the  
pain, started to move towards the unwielded weapon.
    As she reached for the black rod, a pair of sturdy arms suddenly grabbed her own arms and dragged her back. She suddenly felt a cloth  
press into her nose and mouth. She tried holding her breath, but it was only a matter of seconds before she succumbed to the suffocating  
air pressed against her. Her entire body immediately started to feel numb, and her arms and legs all became limp. She fell down against the  
person's arms, her eyesight started to fade also. Her brain was still functioning but she could know longing see or feel anything.
   But at that moment, she heard a whisper in her ears, a whisper from a voice that was oddly familiar.
   "Good night, princess."
   Those words acted like a switch to her mind. As soon as the last syllable left the person's mouth, it was as if every cell and circuit  
in her brain completely shut off at that moment, and she could neither hear, see, move nor feel anything anymore.
 
   And somehow, she ended waking up here.
   Wherever "here" was.
   She was some godforsaken place and she was completely tied up. She was now just as useful as when she got drugged by the man; she couldn't  
see, feel, move or hear a thing. It make her heart twist in pain to think about what could be happening to everyone else at this moment  
where she was sitting here doing nothing except waiting for a miracle.
   It made her frustrated at herself.
   First things' first, I've got to get out of these stupid ropes. Yoona started struggling with the tight ropes holding her wrists  
together in the harshest manners. She tried twisting and tugging her restrained hands in any motion possible in an attempt to loosen them  
up, but she had no luck.
   She groaned angrily to herself. She wasn't used to being so restrained. She was the Im Choding after all, always having to run 
around and pull pranks and random people. Having herself tied down wasn't very helpful to her at all. 
  Yoona tried one more time to undo her ties, this time involving the use of her legs. She started kicking around, seemingly aimlessly
and pointlessly. Well, at least I can move now. She kept grunting kicking and trying, but her ropes still wouldn't budge. 
  Suddenly, she felt one of the legs come into contact with something...
  "AIGO!!" cried out a female voice.
  ...or someone.
  She stopped flailing immediately and froze right where she was. She hadn't considered the possibility that there may be other
people in the same place she was.
  Uh oh, that can't be good. But for some reason, the cry was a lot familiar to her. Only problem was, she couldn't remember
whose voice that was and whether that was a good person or bad person...
   "N..nu goyah?" Yoona muttered softly.
   Suddenly, a high-pitched and out of control laughter burst out of nowhere. Yoona's eyes widened in terror at first, but then she
noticed that laugh was all too familiar. 
  "YOOOOOOOOOOOONAAAAAAAAA!! THANK GOD IT'S YOU!!!!!!!!" the voice of Yuri shouted as she tackled Yoona.
  "Omona!, Yuri-unnie!" Yoona complained, but she couldn't help but join in with her unnie's laughter. Relief washed over
her as she realized there was someone here with her, and that she wasn't completely alone. 
  "Yuri, do you know where we are?" Yoona asked.
  "Are you blindfolded and tied down, too?"
  "Ne...."
  "Well, since there's the two of us here we can probably somehow untie each other's hands. Here, sit back to back with me."
  Yoona moved as Yuri insisted. They found that there hands could grab onto each other's ropes with a certain amount of difficulty.
They couldn't use their eyes at all.
  After around half an hour, Yoona finally managed to figure it out (due to her immense knowledge of knots and ties from her 
pranks) and Yuri's hands were untied.
  Yuri yanked them off as quickly as possible and breathed a sigh of relief. "Aiya...my hands have practically gone numb. You know,
 they're kind of stupid for putting you and me together in wherever this is. Yah, Im Choding, you're a genius! " 
  "Don't call me that," Yoona laughed. "Now get your blindfold off and help me out."
  As she Yoona sat there, she heard the sound of Yuri's blindfold hitting the floor, followed by a sharp gasp by Yuri.
  "Buoya?!" Yoona asked. She immediately heard Yuri kneeling down beside and felt the pads of Yuri's figners around her wrists,
untying her own ropes.
  "You'd better see for yourself," Yuri said hoarsely. With one last pull she undid Yoona's ties and stood up. Yoona frantically
stood up and ripped off her blindfold. What she saw made her heart stop and her entire self freeze over.
  Yoona and Yuri were locked in a cell.
  And what they saw when they looked through the bars were guards standing around their cell, a maze of more hallways
and paths, and seemingly no way to escape.



Yes, this happened in a flashback style kind of thing. 
When Hyoyeon found the bodies Taeyeon and Leeteuk were supposedly already whisked of to the island of no return (or is there? ^^)
so it's kind of like a flashback ish kind of failure thingy. Anyway, this is a filler chapter so as to keep the suspense
for Leeteuk's secret and all that stuff and will (somewhat unfortunately) continue next chapters.

Any confusions please let me know cuz I'm finding that I'm really good at confusing ppls nowadays xD 
Also, sorry for the editing problems and how some of the letters go off the page. Copying and pasting from Word drives me
