It's been an entire day since Rinyoung has left for the store, worrying the boys and mainly Donghyuck.

The brunette walked back and forth in the living room, his hands clenching and unclenching— the others watching from their seats on the carpet or couch.

"You haven't gotten any moment or reply?" Jaehyun asked, eyebrows furrowed down as he individually thought of a reasonable explanation for the girl's sudden disappearance.

"Maybe she died?" Jisung spoke softly, his words faltering with every syllable. His eyes glazed over— the dawning of reality falling on him.

"She couldn't have died," Taeyong rubbed the younger's back in comfort, "He would have began as well, but he's in perfect health,"

"We can only hope that Johnny and Taeil found something from the store cameras," The two mentioned walked in, previously being locked up in their office— trying their best to get anything they could, yet their efforts weren't met with the results they wished for.

"Anything?" Donghyuck asked, eyes deepening with the desperation for his soulmate. This had been the longest they've been apart. Since their rekindling after their fight, they've always followed one another like lost puppies, and they especially got closer once Hyun woo arrived.

Aggressively, Johnny ran his fingers through his light brunette locks, occasionally tugging on them with frustration. "The whole 24 hours of footage were wiped out for that day as well as that whole week," He groaned, his hand traveling to his forehead where he massaged his temples to rid of his headache.

"At least we know that who we're dealing with is far from new," Taeil mumbled, sitting on one of the individual couches, his head tilting back as he continued to think. "Sorry, Hyuck, we tried. We even looked at the street cameras and cameras from nearby shops,"

"It's okay," The male dismissed the older's apology.

Taeyong held his hand in the air, gaining everyone's attention— their curious orbs roaming the man's face for any indication of his thoughts.

"I'll take Mark, Jisung and Donghyuck with me to browse the inside of the shop, and perhaps get something out of the cashiers," Simutaneously, the two mentioned besides Hyuck stood, as the latter was already standing.

The others nodded and bid them farewell— saying they'd try to find other ways to get the female's location.

The four left for Taeyong's car. Donghyuck sat at shotgun, Taeyong driving, Mark behind the younger and Jisung sat behind the oldest in the car. The canadian reached forward from his seat— patting the tanned boy's shoulder.

"We'll find her," He reassured in a brotherly-tone. "Plus, Rinyoung isn't one for peace, she knows how to bite back, though maybe she can do it too—"

"Stop worrying him," Jisung whined, lightly slapping the older's back.

"She'll be fine," Taeyong sighed, turning out of their neighborhood to the main road. After the little exchange of weird reassurance, the remaining few minutes of the drive was silent. Everyone stared out of their windows, either on their sides or ahead.

They were all lost in thought— collectively filled with worry though they wish to not admit it for their friend's sake.

Steering into the parking lot, Donghyuck's figure immediately perked up seeing the female's car. It was still parked and left untouched. Spotting the same sight, Taeyong drove into the lot next to it, turning off the engine— promptly having everyone exit to inspect the vehicle.

The four rushed out, jogging to the trunk where they spotted five grocery bags a day old— flies being attracted to the scent of food — flying around it.

Donghyuck crouched down. He leant forward seeing something strange. He picked up one of the bags and moved it to the side revealing the phone of his soulmate— the screen cracked and broken.

He picked it up, and stood to his feet, where he showed the others. "That's why her location was here all along."

"Look," Jisung called the others over to the trunk. "There's smudged finger marks as if someone was trying to grab onto something,"

"Wait, I'm getting a call from Johnny," Taeyong answered his ringing device, "Hello?" The boy's face brightened, but visibly paled a second after.

"She's back at home,"

"Why are you pale?" Mark asked, orbs shaking as they pooled into the older's.

"She's not alone,"
