XXIV :: Blood

(Jin's POV)

"Don't waste too much of your time. Pick her up." Jimin and Taehyung helped me get her on my back.

The roads through the maze were now unfamiliar. We didn't take the same trapdoor, as that day, to reach the echoe room.

My members and Y/n, were my responsibility. I gave Namjoon my word.

But I'm not as smart as him to figure out roads and unfortunately, we got none of the brave ones in our team.

I sighed and tried to focus on the directions based on the grid of the house.

This tunnel was more below in the earth, obstructing all the light.

"We won't be able to move. Wait. Turn the flashlight someone. I lost my phone." Said Jimin. I didn't bring my phone as well.

"I have mine with me." Taehyung turned the light on his phone and flashed it on all the walls of the grotto.

"Left..." I said. I couldn't understand the calculations, except the fact that I heard Namjoon's footsteps towards the left.

They were running, the ceiling on top of us vibrated with their fast steps. We walked in a slow pace to avoid any land falling over us.

"The route's not finishing..." We had been walking for more than one hour. It was already three quarters past 10.

"Jin Hyung, let's stop for now. I'm breathless. Please." I looked at Jimin who was tired to walking. Genuinely, I was equally out of breath. It's not like Y/n is too heavy for me, but carrying a human on your back and walking to no destination, is hard.

"Yeah. Hold her." I slowly let her body down. Taehyung was carrying her bag, which seemed to be pretty heavy.

"What does she have in it?" Taehyung opened the zipper to take a peek inside the bag.
"Yah! Why you opening her bag?" It's disrespectful to touch other's belongings, especially of the opposite sex.

"She has water. We can use this to wake her up." Taehyung looked at me with a straight face and poured some water in his hands.

He sprinkled the drizzles on her face and her eyes scrunched at the sensation of water dropping on her porcelain skin.

She seemed cute like that.

"Good morning!" I said.
"Mhm?" She opened her eyes only a little to take a tiny glance of my face.

"Morning?" She asked, with her eyes closing again, like a baby.
"Yeah. It's morning." Jimin and Taehyung muffled their laughs and I gestured a hush to them.

"If it's morning, why isn't the Albert Mars, the 1st female, beside me?" Her lips curled a smile.

"Albert Mars, the first female?" Jimin laughed at the joke.
"Mhm. When she sleeps, that's what she looks like. Messy dark curls all over my side."

"Okay, wake up. We're lost in this maze." Hoseok doesn't trust me.
"Okay. We fell down to the lower tunnel right?" She said.

"Yes."
"We'll need to go to our favourite illusion room." She said, sitting up and pulling her hair.

"Did you bring food?" Taehyung asked as he handed her the blue scout bag she had brought along.

"Yeah. Chocolates and cereals and... Umm... Bread and jam." She didn't know the content of her bag herself.

She gives me major unprepared Jimin vibes who is always late and an outcast yet the angle of the dawn.

We're lost or stuck, I don't know. We're lost in an ocean of baffling emotions and fear, and stuck in the tangled intangible threads of catastrophes.
