Chap 62: Shards

****italics means it was said in Korean***

Chaos erupted in the room. As soon as Aila finished signing the document, all eight fell on the floor, agonizing in pain.

They screamed, cradle themselves and turned over as flames engulfed their bodies.

Mr. Sejin quickly left the room and called for help. Staff rushed to the members as fast as they could, shocked to see how bad they looked.

"Someone call emergency! We have to get them to a hospital!" The hotel was alerted something happened to the stars staying with them.

Everyone was still trying everything they could to help them. They just held them down. Their body movements were too unstable. They all passed out by the time the on-site staff doctor came to check on them.

"What happened?" He quickly went to each individual to check their pulses, picking up their eye lids to take a look at their eyes.

Sejin went into a frantic description. The doctor listened carefully as he checked on the lifeless bodies.

"We need to take them to the hospital now! They went into shock! Most probably because their bond broke."

The doctors voice made everyone in the room freeze.

"Break? Bonds can break?!"

"Yes. By what you are describing, how they look and by how everything's been going on it probably did. I might be wrong, but it looks like it did."

"Well can it be fixed?" Sejin's panic was putting him on edge.

"I don't know. I'm not a soul specialist." The doctor lied.

They were rushed to the fourth floor of the hospital, the floor assigned for soulmate.

They were quickly checked in, scans on the eyes done then put into separate rooms, were they got hooked on to IVs, and monitors.

They all looked pale, and cold. Complete opposite of their usual happy selves. 

Sejin felt the guilt eat him up. He wanted what was best for the members. All he wanted was to keep them safe. Now, it had been hours since their bodies shut down, with no response.

"Mr. Sejin, can I talk to you?" He knew some English, enough to understand what the head doctor said, but not enough to talk to her. He called one of his staff members to help.

"I'm afraid what I have to say is serious." The doctor directed her attention to the other staff member.

"I will call someone else to help translate but for now you can explain what happened. The bond between the girl to her soulmates is gone. Unfortunately when bonds break, they can't be fixed. The reason why they passed out is because the pain of the bond breaking is too much, the body needs to shut down."

The staff members nodded for the doctor to continue.

"Right now their souls are shifting, the bonds trying to repair what's left. The bond between the men is fine and its trying to mold so they become a seven piece puzzle. Now the girl's bond is completely gone. Her soul needs to do more repairs than the others."

The staff member tried his best to remember everything.

"Now besides the bond being broken, their memories will also be damaged. When a soul bond is broken, the physical pain is incredibly. It's so much the body can't take it, but the emotional level is worse. For the soul to function again, it makes the brain forget who the bonded person was. Right now, their souls are getting repair and their memories are getting erased. Everything that has to do with the each other will be gone."
