Silent Tao
I love messing with you guys, so I decided to show a sneak-peek. This is a scene, about a month later from the current time.

"XIUMIN! WHERE IS HE?!" Kris screamed.
Xiumin looked away stubbornly.
Kris huffed. "Xiumin, I need to know where he is. I need to explai-"
"He's gone."
Kris looked shocked. "W-What? Gone? Where?"
Xiumin looked up. "I wasn't supposed to tell you this, but his flight left hours ago, so you can't catch him now."
"WHERE IS HE?"
"Kris," he sighed. "He went back to China."
"WHAT?!" Kris shrieked stepping up to Xiumin.
Xiumin pushed him back. "He's gone. He took a flight to Bejing last night."
1:30 pm
"Where is he?" Luhan asked over the phone.
Luhan's question was met in silence.
"Kris? Where is he?" he asked again.
"Luhan," a voice said, full of sadness but determination.
"Yes? What, Kris?" he asked nicely.
"Pack up your things."
"What?" Luhan gasped. Such short notice. . . "Where are we going?"
"We're going back to Bejing."
"Why? Why China?" Luhan asked.
"Because, Huang Zitao is now in China."
1:45 pm
The girl put down the phone and smirked.
"So, Kris, you're going to follow the boy back home? How sweet. . ."
She turned to the picture of Kris on her desk. She spat on it. "Gay fa-"
*ring ring*
She composed herself and picked up the phone. "Hello? Yes. . . Yes. . . Bejing. . . Today. . . Why, of course! Goodbye!"
She walked over to the window and peeked through the blinds. An airplane flew north, off into the distance.
The woman chuckled. "Guess I'm not done with you yet. Want to play a game of tag, Tao? I'll be it."
She shut the blinds, packed up her belongings, and walked over to the door.
She looked back into her office and said something before slamming the door shut.
The words echoed in the empty room.
"And you're next."
"And you're next."
"And you're next."
"You're next."
