SEJEONG POV
Min young asks where the shaman went, Jae Suk hands noona some pages he found earlier in the shaman's place. "These might help, but they need deciphering, check the top left corners." After we finished organizing the pages, we soon got an idea that the words in the page described a location where to go next to find the girls. Sehun, Lee Seung Gi, and Jong-Min and I followed the pages, while Yoo Jae Suk, Min Young and Jae-Wook went to find the shaman. It wasn't long before we came upon an old looking barn. "Do we really have to go inside?" Jong-Min asks. "I agree lets figure this out." Lee Seung Gi suggests. I sigh as Sehun is as cold as am and too tired to wait for the cowards to decide who goes first in the barn. "Rock, paper, scissors then?" Sejeong suggests to quickly get this over with. Surprisingly Sehun takes the key I'm holding and walks up to the barn, but gets static shocked and jumps scaring all us. Sehun chuckles and tries again, but Sehun hears something from the other side of the door, he unlocks quickly and steps back as the door opens. There before us is 16 girls sitting on the floor wearing white with their heads down. "They aren't ghosts." Lee Seung Gi states and suggests Sehun to go in first, but he hesitates I give up and start walking towards the barn, "we all have to go in anyways." Sejeong says annoyed as the guys are astonished by the fearless and youngest Busted member, except Sehun he laughs. "Wait Sejeong I promised to protect you." Sehun tries to appear as a brave hero, but Sejeong knows better. "Oh just forget it." Sejeong says, but accepts Sehun's hand at her back.
SEHUN POV
I understood what Lee Seung Gi was trying to do, this was a moment for me to appear brave on camera, however Sejeong wasn't in the mood to play as a damsel in distress. Hyung just didn't understand our relationship, in her Gugudan group Sejeong had become a surrogate uncle for the girls to rely on. It was a similar situation with D.O, although he was the smallest, we knew when he had his limit of EXO shenanigans because anything he could get his hands on could become a weapon. D.O. also was the best cook in the group, so we listened or no food. Where as I was the Maknae of EXO, However now when Sejeong said no to my comment about protecting her, I felt kinda hurt, but I knew she didn't need protection, she always preferd a equal partner. Jong-Min hadn't caught on what was happening and was grateful someone was going in the barn. Sejeong walked in first, while I stood behind her, I regretted this decision when all the girls rotated their heads in sync. Lee Seung Gi tried to tell the girls we were here to save them, the girls continues to whisper chant something, "lock up the visitors." I glanced over at Sejeong and saw Jong-Min using her as a shield. In a flash the girls got up and rushed us, I heard Sejeong scream loudly as the girls grabbed us and shoved all four members into a weird room. The room was littered with different props some were dolls, clothes, food, and skeleton bones. The door closed and Lee Seung Gi yelled out, "we are here to rescue you." Jong Min found out the red props on the floor had a magnet in them and they stuck to the wall. "We need the other's help to solve this." Sehun said. Jong-Min got out his phone to call Jae Suk and asked if the others woukd come over. 10 minues later, the we could hear he other members walk in the barn and then we heard their screams, I chuckled as Busted member's were getting the same treatment we had received not to long ago.
SEJEONG POV
Unnie and hyungs were shoved into the room we were in. "Welcome," said Lee Seung Gi I laughed and checked Min Young as she was still scared, by what happened. The other 3 regained their wits and continued to help us solve the puzzle. Min Young said the props with magnets made 3 numbers 3,5,7. Lee Seung Gi suggested placing that many number of incense sticks in the rice bowl and light them. I quickly grabbed the number needed and lit them with matches and placed them in the bowl. 10 seconds later sparks were fired on the walls. I screamed and fell towards Yoo Jae Suk covering my head. Sehun crouched near me coverig his ears and then the walls of the room fell down behind us the doors opened were the 16 girls came out. We asked if they were okay and also why they slocked us in the room. 1 girl spoke up and said, "we were placed here because of a prophecy, and we apologize for locking you in here, a voice told us to do that." The girl asked if we were given strange water and drank it. Jong-Minand Yoo Jae Suk quickly spoke up terrified something was in the water. The girl explains we were poisoned and the only cure was a water in the sacred forest, in the forest is barried a water cure and we must drink it quickly for if we don't we would end up dying of dehydration. "That's what happened to the girl we saw under the tree." Sejeong realised. Yoo Jae Suk asks about the shaman's curse, and if the girl's knew where the shaman lived. The one girl spoke up again, "Shaman lives in an abandoned house, there also isn't a curse, someone is controlling the villagers and killing the girls. It's murder." Yoo Jae Suk thanked the girls and told them to go back inside and wait for the police to arrive. Sejeong looked at him curiously, Yoo Jae suk received a text from the lieutenant they had rescued earlier and he called for back up and we needed to secure the killer before the police came. Lee Seung Gi and Sehun volunteered to fetch the cure in the forest. I watched Sehun walk away, he promised he would be back with the holy water. "So far we have two suspects the shaman and the ajumma who took the urn and gave us the posioned water." Yoo Jae Suk said. Sejeong believed the ajumma was hiding something and was the killer, Min Young also agreed. Yoo Jae Suk and Jong-Min believed it was he shaman. Jae-Wook believed it was the ajumma. "I am so confused." Yoo Jae Suk said. "Let's find the shaman first and interrogated her." Jong-Min suggests. Min Young takes a hold of my hand as I begin to sway, Sejeong didn't know if it was because she was tired or from the poison she drank. Yoo Jae Suk was getting a headache as we walked. Jong-Min found the shaman's house and shouted for us to come quickly. The shaman was sitting on her porch crying, when she saw us she confessed to her sins, she admits she shoukd have taken better care of the village, but that's all she says. Yoo Jae Suk handcuffed her and walked with her to the outside of the village where police would be waiting with a can to take her away.
SEHUN POV
Lee Seung Gi and I quickly found the forest, prayer banners and warnings were written outside the forest. As we journeyed further in the forest, it was becoming harder to see wih the fog, colorful ribbons were tired in the trees. "I don't think the water is hidden up in a tree, do we need to dig for the water?" I suggested. Lee Seung Gi thought it was highly plausible. "This is exhausting." Sehun says as he and Lee Seung Gi begin to dig a fast as they can. They find the water in a gourd and take a drink quickly. "We better hurry and take this to the others." I say and get out my phone to text Sejeong. I ask her where we shoukd meet them, she texts back and says the same place we met Jae-Wook. After our deductions we both truly felt ajumma that we met was for sure the killer. We met up with the group and Jae suk tells Lee Seung Gi and I the police apprehended the shaman, "this isnt right. Why did they handcuff the wrong person?" Sehun looks at Sejeong she looks upset too and noona Min Young. Jong-Min and Yoo Jae suk must have overruled the girls choice and picked the shaman. Yoo Jae Suk says the shaman got into the van without protest and she only asked we look after Stephanie. Lee Seung Gi explains, she must have went into the van because she felt she had no other choice. "I think we picked the wrong person." Sehun says. Min Young agrees and calls the police to tell them about the girls in the barn. Luckily the police got there in time, however we didn't pick the right person.
