Another shot is fired and I feel something entering my arm, I look down to see a syringe. They are not shooting with bullets, but sedatives! Thank god! My happiness however is short-lived as the room around me starts to go black.
"Hyung? Can you hear me? You got to wake up... "
"Hyung!" I hear Dae yell. Darkness is surrounding me. Am I still dreaming? Dae's voice keeps calling me, growing stronger every time. I feel something touching me. It's a weak feeling and I can't even tell where it's touching me. My eyes are closed, which explains the darkness. Maybe I should open them.
"Hyung? Oh my god, he's waking up! Hyung, thank god!" There's a bright light, I can't see a thing. Dae's voice is clear now however and I can feel him shaking my arm.
"Taeyang-hyung, he's back!" Seungri? That means I'm back in my cell... Shit my head hurts badly, but I can see Daesung now. He's still changed, hair as bright as Ji's when he's... normal looking. His eyes... They actually look a bit like Taeyang's. I'm glad he's okay.
"Hey..." I whisper, my voice sounds damaged, but I try to smile anyway. Dae tries to look happy as well, but I notice a hint of sadness on his face. He helps me up.
"Easy..." I hear Daesung say in a tiny voice. My legs feel a bit numb and my body is kind of stiff, but I'm fine. When I'm finally up, there's a slightly uncomfortable silence. Dae's expression is still the same and... wait, we're not in my old cell! The walls are painted in a dark purple and there's no more opening at the end of the wall. Then how...
"I'm sure you have a lot of questions right now..." my thoughts are interrupted by Dae. He's not looking at me but at his feet instead. Does he thinks I'm mad at him?... He didn't tell me about him being like us. Why, he knows he can trust me right? I mean, he's the same as I am, why did he lie about that?... Okay, maybe I'm a bit upset.
"I do." I try to stay calm, but when I look at Daesung flinching, I guess it didn't sound calm at all. I shouldn't be angry, he probably had a good reason not to. Plus he saved me... Kind of.
"I'm not mad Daesung. I'm just a tiny bit upset you didn't tell me. I only hope that you have a good reason." He still doesn't look at me. Instead, he starts to fumble with his fingers.
"I do, or at least I thought I did. Initially, I wanted to tell you on your birthday. I figured you had enough problems of your own before that. But then the cake happened and... After I was captured I thought I might as well wait until we were escaping, you know, so the guards wouldn't be prepared..." The last part makes sense, the first part is another story.
"You didn't think that it would've been easier if I wasn't alone in this? Jeez Dae, how the hell, could you keep th- wait, I've seen you eat!" My anger makes place for confusion.
"I-I have no idea why I can eat." Daesung looks really distressed.
"You're the same as Taeyang-hyung!" Seungri's voice enters my mind again.
"Okay, I'm going completely crazy now, why is Seungri in my head?!" Daesung looks up at that for the first time, eyes sunshine-white still.
"Yeah, that would be me." O-kay?
"Apart from being rather strong and having sharp nails, I'm also a telepath. That's also the reason why I knew where Jiyong was... being a telepath doesn't end with me being able to communicate through brainwaves, but I can also read other's mind when I want to."
"What, you mean you've been reading my mind since god knows how long?!" Oh no, that's not good at all.
"Wh-what? No! I've only been doing that when it was absolutely necessary. Like when you ran away at school, I used it to locate you, just like I did with Jiyong. Please hyung, I-I would never, you have to believe me!" The pure horror on his face tells me enough.
"I believe you. But why didn't you contact me sooner?"
"I did. Well, I tried but I'm not yet able to do so when the person is too far away. It was only when you were asleep or unconscious that I could contact you."
"T-those dreams were real?! You shaped reality in my dreams?!" Oh god, how far back do they go?
"Kind of, some of them didn't really make any sense, the strawberry remember." He smiles faintly which makes me smile in return. But soon his expression changes back to being scared.
"Hyung, I'm sorry, I only knew that I could enter your dreams when you were already here. Even when the cake incident happened you weren't that far away, but I just wasn't strong enough. I understand if you're mad at me."
"You shouldn' t be mad at him for that, Seunghyun-hyung. However, you should be for him telling where Ji is!" Seungri sounds rather worried than angry, but I can understand he's not too happy about it. Daesung flinches at the harsh words but seems to accept them.
"No, you shouldn't. He was in a no-win situation and I have the feeling that that's not all. Is it, Daesung?" Taeyang enters the conversation as well with a soft voice, trying not to accuse anyone. Seungri doesn't answer.
"Y-yes, There are a lot of red houses around the park. Jiyong isn't stupid, so he'll keep an eye open and from the moment he sees something abnormal, he'll take off." Daesung has a point. Ji's all but relaxed, especially after what happened. He'll make it out.
"If he didn't, he'd be here right now." Also true, so Jiyong's safe probably.
"I also thought of that. I also noticed that Daesung is like me."
"Yeah, he also has the same kind of eyes as you... Why do you think that is? Different kind of mutation? Did they give you something else?" Questions, more question that don't get answered. At least we're fairly sure that whatever they did with us isn't going to kill us... Not directly anyway.
"Who knows, we can't be sure. So what do we do now? Try to escape?" Good question, we really should try to escape. We can't bluff anymore, not with Daesung not being human, not with the bully as a leader. If we don't get out, this will be our death. He won't stop. Daesung apparently feels the same way. He looks determent right now, not sad anymore.
"Yes, we should figure out how to as quick as possible. I will try to find something together with hyung. I suggest you do the same because I have to cut the link, it's draining me. If you want to contact me, you just have to focus, okay."
"Got it." And with that the link disappears. Daesung looks up at me again and I smile to reassure him that I'm no longer upset. It seems to work as Daesung smiles back softly and takes one of my hands in his. He pulls me towards a bench that's standing against one of the walls. I didn't even notice it was there.
We sit down and Daesung starts to tell me about the building. The guards had to move him a couple of times to other rooms due to the lack of cells so he has a basic idea of the area. There are seemingly three floors that are connected with each other trough staircases at both ends of the building and an elevator. There's also a flat roof with a ladder which is likely to be a fire exit. There's no wall or fence around the building, so in theory, we're out once we're at the bottom end of the ladder. Daesung tells me it's practically the only way out. There's only one entrance door and there are bars on every window. So rooftop it is.
Only problem now is, how to get out of our cells. Daesung is about to contact the others but I tell him to give them some extra time, perhaps they come up with a better plan. Daesung nods and once again there's a silence. It's different this time however. We're alone now and I feel nervous when I realise this. We're alone, really alone for the first time since the infirmary. Daesung looks up at me suddenly, face a bit red. I obviously said that last part out loud again. Smooth, very smooth.
The reaction however is, I have to say awesome. Dae grabs my hand and intertwines our fingers. I'm sure my face is as red as Dae's is. He smiles again and seriously, he has the best smile in the world. I come to the conclusion that my mind isn't working properly when I brush away the very light blond hair that's falling in his eyes. He stops my hand and put it on his waist. If I wasn't red before I swear,... But all my thoughts disappear when he embraces me. I'm so happy I could cry, but I figure it's best that I don't. I'm the hyung and frankly, I've cried so much already that I don't want Dae to see me as a cry baby, if he doesn't already. I close my eyes and try to calm down.
"Dae, I-I..." My voice sounds weak and I hate it. But I'm stopped by the feeling of lips on mine. My eyes open wide and he's so close. I can see his eye laces so clear now. Oh god, he's kissing me, HE IS KISSING ME! I shouldn't feel so nervous, it's not like this didn't happen before. He even puts his hands and combs thru my hair. It feels so good. I'm so happy even though I shouldn't be. We're still locked up. But at least we're together now. I should show more initiative though, I'm the eldest. I should feel certain enough. Maybe I should try something.
Our lips part and Daesung looks at me again. Now is the time to do something. I put one hand behind is neck and one underneath his leg and try to pull it towards me. I'm not near strong enough so I change but even then. Luckily Daesung understands and gets up, puts his knees next to my thighs and straddles me. Besides the fact that this is totally hot, I notice something else. I thought the near white eyes didn't have any pupils, but now I can see that there's a slightly darker part in his eyes and it's dilated. Which tells me he's liking this as much as I do. The hand behind his head pulls him closer to me and we kiss again.
His lips are so soft. I deepen the kiss and something changes in me. A warm feeling flowing through my veins and all of my insecurities disappears. When our tongues meet it seems like Daesung feels the same thing and his movements become more bold. I don't know how long we're at it, but it feels like hours. In the end we're both panting and when Dae starts to grind his hips into mine, I feel like I have died and gone to heaven. But our happiness is short-lived as we hear Seungri's voice in our heads.
"Guys, you got anything?" Shit, why is it that people always need us when we're at this point?! I realise a bit too late that neither of us answered. It's not like we actually can however, I'm pretty sure my voice would sound a bit weird at this point and so would Dae's.
"Guys? Did... Did I interrupt something?" He asks. I need to calm down. Okay deep breathe.
"No, no it's fine Seungri, uuh... Well, we figured a way out of here. Dae says there's a ladder on the roof and there are no fences around the building so... Only one problem, we have no idea of how to get out of our cells..."
"Well, I do." Taeyang joins the conversation.
"It seems they moved us to the new cell in quite a hurry. They forgot something. The door. The door isn't reinforced so I can easily break it. I guess yours as well... Oh and guys, when are we going to risk doing this?"
"Tomorrow..."
