"This is stupid, we're pretty much running in circles"

"Well? What do you want to do? Sit around... Starve..?" I answer back in protest

Jeongin just groaned "We're gonna starve at this bloody rate anyway!" He raised his voice

"Shhh" I hiss "we're still in a killing game, we can't get caught"

"Right, yeah, killing game, crazy people, sharp things, cannon shots, gotch'ya" Jeongin muttered to himself, stepping over a root.

I nod, almost in an exaggerated way as we continue walking in search for Seungmin

"We're not gonna find him! The only thing we'll find is our dead bodies" Jeongin reasoned, keeping his voice at a reasonable low

"You promised you'd help me find him so you're helping me find him, we die together Jeongin-ah" I smile bitterly

"Sheesh I can feel the venom on my name hyung " Jeongin rolls his eyes

"Sheesh I can sure as hell feel the venom on both your tongues, tell me, why is it always you I run in to, makes me not want to kill you more so when we get down to the final showdown I can end you then" Jeongin almost jumped out his skin and we both turned around to come face to face with Jisung hanging off a tree

"Y'all looking for food or what?" He asks, popping a berry into his mouth

We both give him a look

"What?" He asks, chucking me one "I ain't gonna poison ya"

I shrug it off "I guess I am kinda hungry" I mutter, Jisung smirked

"Yeah, thought so" he flipped himself around "say.." he bit his lip, a bit of red berry juice smearing on it "if y'all aren't looking for food" he sat up on a branch and jumped down "what are ya looking for?" He edged closer to us

Jeongin backed away a bit "Hyung, he's got a knife" he slightly whispered to me

"He always has a knife, he's-"

"Han Jisung!"

All three of us turn around

"Oh hey babe, wasn't aboutta kill 'em, I swear" Jisung smiled dopily

Minho snorted "I know, only 'cos it's Hyunjin" he looked at us two "who's the other one?"

"Uhm" Jeongin looked down

"He's Yang Jeongin, we're looking for-"

"Kim Seungmin?" Jisung cut in, seeing both mine and Jeongin's faces, he snorted "knew it, what happened to y'all promising to not leave eachother's side?" He took a bigger fruit Minho had handed to him and took a bite, pulled a face, spat it out in a bush and lobbed it in the lake slightly ahead

"Oh I saw him with Yunho" Minho added, actually enjoying the fruit he had found

"And, where is Yunho?"

"Oh my god is this a family gathering? Didn't realise y'all were my long lost annoying ass brothers" Jisung groaned hearing another voice from behind him

"Jung Wooyoung" Jeongin muttered

"Oh glad someone knows his name" Jisung muttered sarcastically

"Sheesh you're a rude one" Wooyoung smiled "Just wanted to know where he was"

"We're not telling you" Jisung replied, watching Minho close his mouth after it had opened to let words come out.

"Fine, I'll find him myself!" Wooyoung scowled slapping Jisung right across the face before turned to walk away

"Sheesh, you're a rude one" Jisung mimicked, throwing one of his knives right to the back of Wooyoung's head

Jeongin let out a small noise, cowering away

"Have fun finding the kid" Jisung forced a smile and eating a few more berries and hoisting himself back up on a branch

"Oh and be careful of San, him and Wooyoung had" he paused, as if thinking of the right way of describing such a thing "something special" he finished, settling for those two words. He didn't particularly seem pleased he had ruined this 'something special' the canon shot sounded "tell the poor kid I said sorry" he continued, genuineness in his tone

"Right" Jeongin gulped "let's go" Jeongin grabbed my arm and dragged me away from the other two and the dead body "what kind of nutcase is he?" He asked, sweat dripping down his forehead

"Oh, he's a decent fella," I nod "sometimes"

"He just threw a knife into a poor guys head! And then told us to be careful of a guy he was obviously close to, then say sorry? Like? Sheesh, he really freaks me out" he rambled, a shiver visibly going down his spine

"Yeah, he's a decent fella, just something a bit wrong in the head" I rethink my words, should I say that about someone going through what he's going through?

Well, I'm also in the game and I'm not killing people left and right, so maybe it is fine, but-

"Hyung"

"Huh?"

"Do you just like spacing out?" Jeongin asked, looking me up and down.

I sigh, shrugging and continuing to walk, Jeongin's face fell, he followed me.

He stepped on something, squelchy, Jeongin looked down

He jumped back and screamed

"Shhhh!" I look down at what he screamed at "well, at least we don't need to wait until tonight to find out who the canon shot was for"

"Christopher Bang Chan, oh how the great ones fall, was never that tall, but boy, how his life took a fall." The voice paused "clearly, he's as dead as a rat."

"Is that even a saying?" I ask, smirking a bit

"No, no it's not, hey, the way he said 'no' is quite fun 'naur' "

"Jesus Christ do you follow us everywhere?" Jeongin turned to look at Jisung, annoyed

"Naur, of course I don't, I just wanted to see what shit you'd find while looking for the 'lost boy'."

"Mocking his accent over his dead body? You're rough" I snort, turning to look at Jisung, who was hanging upside down on a different branch, on the tree right next to us, he smiled a bit

"Ciao" was all he said before jumping off the branch and walking back from where he came from.

Jeongin and I watched him walk off, then looked back down at Bang Chan's dead body, blood splayed absolutely everywhere on his head and body

"I don't like that fella, not one bit" Jeongin sighed, shaking his head
