Seven Break
MC POV
Your head throbbed, a pain that was untouchable yet clawed it's way toward you. Your mind felt like exploding as the scene from the night prier flooded your thoughts. Panic filled your veins, like a switch, your heart had a great longing for your red headed friend. You remembered everything so clearly it hurt, but you had not the faintest idea what happened after you blacked out. You knew Saeyoung dropped you off at the hospital, according to others accounts at least, but you had to see him. You had to know he made it out alive and safe with your own eyes.
And just like that, as if on cue, Jumins phone rang.
He held a shocked expression upon viewing the callers name, picking up without hesitation,
"Hello?! Saeyoung? Where are you we're worried." His collected, yet concerned tone voiced, "Meeting? Your place? MC's still in the hospital she can't-" You grabbed ahold of the tall mans arm gently, but with a stern expression as if to say that doesn't matter.
After locking eyes with him he let out a long sigh, rubbing his temples in defeat, "Fine. Fine she said she'll come but why are you doing this? Saeyoung? Saeyoung…? My God he hung up on me."
You couldn't help but let a smirk play itself upon your features, that seemed rather typical of your red headed friend. "So we're meeting up at his place then?" The raven haired boy let out another long sigh before replying, "Yes. But MC, what about your injuries?" You couldn't help but notice the abundant care and concern that swelled in his eyes.
You smiled softly, your health was important, but something greater within you wouldn't let you rest until knowing your red headed hacker was safe, "I'll be alright, I've been through worse. What time are we meeting?"
You're standing next to Jumin outside of Saeyoungs large metal door, that you've been trying to get through for the past 15 minutes. Something didn't seem right, Saeyoung would never keep you waiting or lock you out like this. Perhaps he's just taking extra precautious measures for Saeran? You tried reasoning with yourself.
Finally, the tall man next to you had lost his patients, before muttering something inaudible, he kicked open the metal door with a force, watching it fall to the ground.
"Woah…" You breathed, completely shocked by the inhuman strength this man possessed. You quickly shook off your surprise as you stepped into the bunker like apartment.
"Saeyoung…? Saeyoung are you here?" You politely called, hearing your echo ring off the walls of the dark apartment. You were met with silence, accompanied only by Jumins and your own breathing, before a man with cherry red hair stumbled into view.
"I didn't expect you guys so soon! What a surprise!" The man voiced, his slurred words hung thick in the air.
Panic drowned your veins as your heart fell through the floor, the mans eyes where all the proof you needed.
This wasn't the Saeyoung you've grown so close too. No this was someone far different, yet so similar.
You couldn't stop the desperate words from escaping your lips, "Where is he…Where's Saeyoung!?" You demanded, tears threatening your eyes as guilt and panic shook your heart.
The man sickly smiled, pulling off the wig revealing snow white hair with pink tips. A sinister laugh pierced your ears, "Haha Saeyoung? Why…he's back where you left em! This whole time. He made a bargain with me you know, if I took you to the hospital then he would give me the code to his apartment. Oh and his unconditional surrendered of course."
Your blood thickened as you felt sick, when he said he would protect you with his life, he really meant it. That IDIOT! Your mind is racing now, ignoring the threat in front of you, you grabbed Jumins arm gaining his attention. You demanded in an urgent, yet broken voice, "I need to go there…I need to save him…."
Without any words the tall raven haired boy stood in front of you, his back separating you from the white haired threat. He turned his head and in his usual demeanor ordered, "Go, driver Kim is out there, he'll take you." You couldn't help but notice the brokenness in his eyes as he spoke, as if he realized something he wish he didn't.
You nodded in agreement, deciding to shake off what you saw, focusing on saving your friend. As you turned to escape, there was a quiet click that was enough to freeze even the air itself.
Slowly you turn your head around, confirming a nightmare only your thoughts could hold. Saeran stood there, shaking, with a gun in his hands. The target, Jumin.
You where struck with fear, your legs became too foreign for usage, and your mind slowed to complete silence.
"MC, you're the only one who knows where Saeyoung is right now. You're the only one who can save him." Jumin whispered, reading your slowed, fear stricken mind.
A lump in your throat challenged your words as you tried to reason, "I can't leave you here Jumin."
Saran's hands begin to shake more.
"Go." Jumin whispered in the same, calm and authoritative tone.
"What?!" You couldn't stop the tears now starting to fall like a waterfall, yet you where too shocked to sob.
"GO!" The raven haired man yelled again, this time turning around to face you, holding both your shoulders forcing you to look at his emotion filled face.
"I'M GOING TO SHOOT!" Saeran screamed from across the room.
Jumin looked into your eyes for a moment, compassion, longing, sadness jumping out of his metallic orbs. One last time, he breathed in a soft, broken voice, a metaphorical confession,
"Go…"
You felt more emotion expressed in his eyes then you ever have before, yet, your heart pulled you ruthlessly to another. To another's loving set of golden eyes.
Your mind was made up, in an instant, you where running out of the apartment, tears staining your cheeks.
Jumin POV
She left…
Just like that, I'm not the one. I should have known, now's not the time to dwell on that though, I had to keep her safe, which started now.
Slowly I turned around, lifting my hands in the air in defeat.
"Saeran, you don't have to do this…just drop the gun and we can talk…"
The white haired boy's demeanor was uncontrollable, and unpredictable, he couldn't keep his gun pointed straight.
I took a step closer, "Just put the gun down, I want to help…everything will be ok- "
"BURN! I WANT IT ALL TO BURN IT HAS TO BURN!" The boy fell to his knees, tears now falling from his eyes, his gun shakily locked on my frame.
The boys broken voice yelled in an uneven tone, "I can't do this…I can't do this anymore…"
Then his gun steadied.
MC POV
You ran faster then you ever thought you could back to the car, swinging open the door you yelled the location to driver Kim. However before closing the car door, a haunting sound resonated in your ears.
Bang.
You slammed the car door shut, the sound of tires skinning the road below now filling the air, however you couldn't hear anything, not even your own sobs as the bang echoed in your mind, and your heart.
