"Give Yuri back."

Soo-won's eyes narrow onto Yona's form, her posture stiffening. "Give her back? Let me assure you Yona, Yuri came here of her own free will. I ask that you refrain from making it sound like we kidnapped her." Soo-won says, his eyebrows scrunching in dismay.

"Just what do you plan on doing to her?!" Hak's deep voice echoes through the room, his grip on his glaive tightening. His patience had dwindled down from 5 to -10 the moment he saw Yuri laying on the table. His, what you'd call, 'bodyguard instincts' kicked in and he wants nothing more but to protect her.

"Nothing she hasn't already agreed to." Soo-won assures. But, Hak can't be fooled so easily. Venom seeps through Soo-won's voice. The same venom Hak had missed before all the chaos. "Bullshit!" Hak shouts.

"Call it what you will, Hak. The truth of the matter is Yuri wants nothing more but to have her memories returned. I am simply making her desires reality." Soo-won snaps.

"And what's the price? What are you making her do for you?!" Hak is now infuriated and anxious. His mind is piecing together so many scenarios, he doesn't know what to believe.

In return for giving her memories back, Yuri may have to share information about them.

Maybe her end of the deal was already given before the deal was even made. Maybe her part was luring the Princess and him here, along with the dragons.

Maybe Yuri was a spy all along. And in return for finding him and the Princess, Soo-won gives her memories back.

Hak's mind races endlessly. His heart rate starts to increase, along with his breathing. Yona notices and begins to worry. It's not like Hak to crack under pressure. Even when the worst of the worst is happening right in front of him, Hak doesn't loose his cool.

Yona reaches her hand out for Hak's arm, "Hak—" Hak abruptly moves his arm away, turning his head shamefully to the side.

Yona's eyes fill with worry, her hand withdrawing slowly. But, her attention was drawn elsewhere when she sense another uneasy aura.

Shin-Ah

Yona turns around towards the Blue Dragon. He seems anxious, like he needs to do something. Normally, Yona would think he'd want to get his mask and that's why he's anxious. But, Yona's gut told her otherwise.

The anxious dragon clenches his fists in an attempt to ease his tension.
He understands why Yuri is here. He knows. But they don't. Shin-Ah understands that in order for Yuri to remember, she has to make a deal with the devil. He understands. But he doesn't like it. He understands everything. But his stomach won't settle down. This reaping, uneasy feeling is swelling in the pit of his stomach and he can't figure out why.

It's killing him.

Soo-won sighs at the antsy group in front of him. 'How childish. They can defeat a whole army but once one of their own is captured, they're nothing more but sweaty teenagers.'

Soo-won turns to Hak's form. It is quite obvious he's having a major panic attack. Pretty soon, it's gonna feel like he can't breath.

'Pathetic. Where's the fire you had when I killed Yona's father and almost her too?'

If Soo-won didn't have feelings for Hak and Yona, he would've laughed at this pitiful sight.
