TAEHYUNG'S POV

"Then who's your target?" Yoongi cutted in. This time Sasha smirked. She lifted her right hand before pointing at Yoongi and Loriel.

"You two." She says. Her smirk getting more twisted.

Loriel and Yoongi froze at the new information. They looked at each other clearly confused. Surely, they do not know who the girl is nor they have any idea as to why she was following them. BUT, this might help their situation; or so I thought.

"But why? We don't know you, no offense, but I can't really think of any reason as to why you should be looking for us." Loriel answered in all honesty. Sasha waved her off and looked at her painted nails.

"No offense taken. I don't know you personally too, but you're the one's who got me here." She answered and shrugged before looking at the two "even more" confused souls beside me. Honestly, I can't keep up with what she's trying to say as well.

"Look," I cutted in. "we a-are going around i-in circles. So, can y-you please cut to the chase? Please kindly enlighten us." I added. The other boys who can't see the ghosts were too busy talking to themselves halted when the heard the nervousness in my voice.

Sasha looked my way when she heard me spoke, then she got all serious and made her way toward me. The room suddenly felt tensed, but I stayed rooted to where I'm standing. When she was one step away from me, she stopped. The sassy and happy Sasha was nowhere to be found, because now she looked so serious that her image from earlier was thrown out of the window.

"What I meant was, pretty boy, these two-" She pointed at Loriel and Yoongi. "are the reason why I'm dead. Now do you get it?" At this moment my breath was caught up in my throat. SHE KNOWS SOMETHING.

"W-What the hell are you talking about?" Loriel replied. "Yoongi and I didn't know each other, not until I saw him at the park when I found out I was dead!" She stated. Her pupils shaking in fear and anxiety. My heart ached at this, because I want to hold her knowing she needs it most, but I can't.

"I agree with her." Yoongi added. "I was already dead when I met Loriel and made her understand she was dead too, when she first showed up at the park." He explained. Sasha laughed in a sarcastic way.

"Are you sure you don't know each other? Or did YOU forgot?" She tilted her head at the side mocking the two with her knowing look.

"CUT THE CRAP AND JUST SAY IT!" Jiminie suddenly yelled, looking furious and unafraid at Sasha. The other scoffed at his reaction.

"THEY WER--" Then suddenly she stopped talking; weirdly enough, more like she can't talk. She just kept making muffled noises with her lips sealed shut. She tried using her hands to open them, but it's as if it was glued up together and she can't do anything about it. If we are confused before, we are certainly even more bewildered now; all eyes wide open; well at least for the people who can see Sasha.

Loriel tried to help her by walking towards the other to lend a hand, but she was suddenly thrown by an invisible force to the other side of the room. Yoongi was quick enough to catch her which I'm thankful for.

"WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCKING DEMON SHIT IS GOING ON?!?" Jiminie screeches. Suddenly there was a looming shadow that appeared behind Sasha and hold on her right wrist. With that a number '10' appeared on the wrist it was holding. Then the shadow created a dark mist that became bigger and bigger until it filled the room; making it unable to see in the our hotel room. I got scared. Not for myself, but for Loriel. "LORIEL!" I shouted.

"I'M HERE TAEHYUNG!" She yelled back, making me almost sighed in relief. But I guess we weren't the only ones affected. And terrified will be an understatement for the situation.

"I CAN'T SEE!!!"
"WE'RE GONNA DIE!"
"I WANT TO GO HOME!!"
"I'M TO HANDSOME TO DIE EARLY! I DON'T WANT TO DIE A VIRGIN!"

Then there was light. Not a sign of the dark mist. The room stayed the same; unaffected by what had happened. But it sure did something to US.

Sasha, Loriel, and Yoongi were unconscious on the floor. I immediately kneeled down beside Loriel panicking and wanting to touch her and wake her up.

The boys are hugging each other with tears in the eyes, but they looked even more shocked when they looked around the room.

"I-Is that Loriel?" Jin said almost in a whisper, but loud enough for everyone to hear. Not only that, as he said so, all the boys are looking directly at Loriel. They can see HER!

"Loriel b-baby, wake up." I whimpered. Tears filling my eyes, but I held them back. "P-Please." I begged. Then those beautiful eyes fluttered open looking straight at mine. "T-Taehyung." She said softly, sitting up from the floor and suddenly hugging me. My eyes widened.

She's touching me. I can feel her cold skin touch mine. It isn't the feeling of a human who's alive, but to me it made my whole body warm knowing that I can finally hold what's mine. I immediately hugged her back, sobbing as I did so.

"I can touch you. I don't know how, but I can." She cried on my shoulder. "I love you..."

"My home."
