My deep soul

Chapter 15

Jinyoen attended to scream but the gag prevented her doing so. Sunwoo saw this and started running after the man who is dragging Jinyoen.  She tried to kick but she couldn't. Jinyoen was tied in an ally being guarded by two men and a knife at her throat. Another man had curved a sword in his hand which was aimed Sunwoo.

"How dare wear silk . Your life must have picked up for capital " The scarred man told  Sunwoo. 

"Deal with me. Let her go"

"I have never seen Dog bird so scared before.  I have  a feeling it's because of her." Sunwoo looked at Jinyoen worried about her safety.

"I told you to let her go" Sunwoo glared at him.

The group heard someone was walking and they turned around to see a nameless man witha blade in his neck. He saw Jinyoen tied up and tried to walk to her but with a blade near to his neck he couldn't walk more farther. 

"This pretty girl's life depends on what you do" 

"If you touch a single hair on her head then you are dead." Sunwoo threatened the man making him laugh. 

"Then you will die before me" said while pointing the knife at Sunwoo's chest. Jinyoen began to cry afraid of losing her brother. 

Sunwoo grabbed the knife and put it away from his chest. His hand started bleeding. 

"Kill me now. But if she gets hurt before that then I will kill you."

                                                         ...

Jinyoen woke up and all she could see was darkness. She was still tied and the gag was still in her mouth.  She remembered what happened before. She was crying. She heard footsteps coming closer to her.  She began to back up. She felt a knife at her throat.

"You are the girl who Dog bird treasure much" She felt a knife gently against her cheek. The man lifted her chin.  "I can't believe a noble lady like you show such interest in someone who is lower.  What a waste "

Then they heard a loud thud from the next door. They got up and left Jinyoen alone.  She waited till the men go out from her and tried to loosen the knots. But it didn't work. The knots were very tied and when she moved they only dug more inside of her skin. She felt blood coming from her hands. Tears started to fall because of the pain she was feeling.  She found something and started  kicking it ignoring the pain in her legs. She heard the door opened. She backed away not knowing who was it. Jinyoen felt someone came behind her back and hold her while the other one tried to untie the gag from her mouth.  She swung her head and hit the man in front of her. She continued crying. 

"Jin, it's me. Hold on " Hearing Sunwoo's voice made her feel safe. He quickly untied her blinds. "Are you alright?"

Sunwoo saw her hands were bleeding.  He quickly released her hands too. Jinyoen began to cry.

"I thought you were gone.  I thought you left me again.  I- I was scared" she barely whispered. 

"I promised you that I won't leave you again. "

"Can we go.." Jidiwi started to say but stopped when they heard, 

"Where are them? Find them." Sunwoo stopped untyding when he heard the voice.  He lifted Jinyoen to his shoulder and started running.  Jidiwi stared at them before following them. They continued to run but soon stopped by the man with the scar and his gang. Jidiwi turned them and said, 

"Go ahead.  I will stop them."

"What?"

"Go" he side while looking deeply at Jinyoen's eyes. Jinyoen shook her head saying no. Sunwoo started running and set Jinyoen down and untied her ropes. Go quickly.  Don't look back go" Jinyoen grabbed his hands.

"If you feel afraid count to 200. I will return "

"I will count only to 150. Please don't get hurt and come back"  Sunwoo gently removed her hands and went. Jinyoen got up and started to follow the path which Sunwoo mentioned.  But she couldn't bring herself to leave without them. So, she waited.  

It was like forever when she heard "Jin, you are still here?" Jinyoen couldn't stop herself she ran to them and hugged both of them tightly.  Tears started to fall down from her eyes. Jinyoen continued to punch them by her small hands while crying. " I was so worried about you two. What if something happens to you" Jidiwi was shocked.  Jinyoen hugged him saying that she was worried about him. He felt happy to know the she cares for him  too. Sunwoo took her hands and said" come on Jin we already are late for the ceremony let's go "
