Rose, Jennie, Taehyung, Jisoo, Jin, and Yoongi walked into the jungle, cursing under their breath that they could have found some answers a week before if they actually knew about it. The sun was going to set, the jungle was dark enough, you could hear the buzzing of several insects as you walk deeper.
"There are so many trees in here, and they look the same, how would we find the one with a single picture?" Jennie asked panting for breath as they all looked around.
"Can I look at the picture once again?" Jisoo asked Yoongi who had the picture stuffed in his pocket. Yoongi nodded as he passed the picture to Jisoo.
"This tree was like a 15 minutes walk from the cabin, and the cabin was on that track, we should go from there," Jisoo said, calculating the things. Jin looked at her amazed, "You know what Jisoo? You are a freak and I love you," as they all started running in the direction she told, hoping they would find the tree as soon as possible. "I wish Jin meant that I love you romantically as well," Rose whispered in Jisoo's ear
Running for 20 more minutes, they finally reached that place, and then Taehyung pointed to the tree, "Guys, look at this,"
On the tree's backside, on its trunk, it had been carved. Somi's name, a heart, and his name. The five moved to where Taehyung pointed and they stared at the carved letters, in shock. For a second, they couldn't believe what they were reading. It was something they never expected, not in their worst dreams, never. They could never even imagine that, ever. It was probably the most unexpected thing during this journey.
"Somi loved him, how in the hell," Jennie said, emphasizing every word, her voice coming out as a shaky whisper as they all continued to stare at the carving, and then Yoongi said his name, loud and clear for the others to believe it
"Eunwoo and Somi were having an affair,"
"How is it possible?" Rose rustled, her voice was hoarse as Jisoo felt her throat parched. Yoongi couldn't stare at it any longer, he averted his gaze as Jin did the same. Jennie intertwined her hand with Taehyung's, hoping he would tell her that it's a joke, but it wasn't. It was written big enough to understand that
Eunwoo was the guy Somi was with the night she disappeared
"I can't believe this," Rose said, shaking her head, "Stop thinking about that, think how we will tell Jungkook," Jisoo said, biting her lip
--------------
1 DAY LATER
"You all are kidding, right?" Jungkook said as they all gathered at Namjoon's house to tell each other about their finding. The others kept silent, it wasn't easy to tell Jungkook that his cousin, the one he loves like his own brother, and the one who lives with him under the same roof.
"We aren't kidding Jungkook, it's the truth," Jennie said, her head down, Rose tried to hold his hand but he just stood up, "Where is the proof? There is no way Eunwoo is XOXO,"
"Eunwoo is XOXO, he was the mystery lover in that video, Somi said we would be angry if we found out, their relationship wasn't fair, it is Eunwoo," Yoongi said, trying to explain Jungkook
"So do you think Eunwoo would expose himself like that after killing Somi? Why would XOXO just write on a tree that it's his true personality, someone could have just carved it like there," Jungkook shouted
Rose then nodded, "Jungkook has a point, why would XOXO write his true personality on a fucking tree and serve it like food on a plate?"
"Chae, you forgot when this mess began, when I messaged XOXO who is he, the reply was Somi's killer, XOXO himself accepted that he killed Somi, and Eunwoo was with Somi the night she disappeared," Jin shouted back
"Can you guys shut up, I am trying since morning to hack into XOXO's messages, we would we able to find out the location and the recovery number for his SIM CARD, so just keep quiet and let me work," Jimin said, his voice urgent as he continued to type on his laptop
-20 minutes-
"Guys, it's getting hacked," Jimin said, his voice so low as he didn't even try to take his eyes off the screen. The others quickly gathered around him, as the screen flashed a loading bar, 13% done.
.

.
.
87% done. The others fidgeted their fingers as Jimin continued to type, but suddenly
the lights went out, and they heard the branch of a tree breaking.
"Guys," Rose whispered as she tried to get hold of something. "What is happening? Someon-" Lisa said but she was cut off when they heard a scream. They all could hear each other's breathing, "Whose scream was that?" Hoseok asked, trying to turn on the lights, "The lights aren't working, someone must have cut the power from the main switch downstairs," Namjoon said as he tried to turn on the lights
Suddenly the lights came back, the others looked at each other, thankfully everyone was okay, but then Jimin said something
"Guys, where is my laptop?"
The others looked at each other, and then their phones buzzed
