Hueningkai let go of taehyun, letting him kill jungwoo and therefore complete his revenge.

Taehyun saw the game points paint over his screen, the others mustve defeated the other members in game too! They beat them without a sweat!!!

"Kang Taehyun...thats a really pretty name." Hueningkai smiled to himself, looking as if he had finally gotten what he had wanted as well.

Taehyun noticed the oddity in hueningkais happy expression, it wasnt normal, but eerie.

A steady drip of blood fell from hueningkais nose, surprising himself when he caught it in his hand.

He wiped it, but it kept running down his face, sending him into a dizzy state as he lost his footing stumbling back.

"Hey, woah kai....its over take it easy ok?" Taehyun ran to him, catching him and sitting down softly to hold him in his lap while he calmed his nosebleed.

"Hyung...it wont stop." Hueningkais eyes were scared as he held his bloody hands to show taehyun. His eyes were slowly crossing into a drooping eyelid.

"Hey!! HEY WOAH KAI....ITS ALRIGHT!! TAKE US OUT OF HERE! NO MORE GLITCHING STOP IT! " taehyun lost his victory euphoria and now became more worried than he wanted over the boy he soon planned to abandon.

"I really love you Taehyun I- Real-really do..." hueningkai stuttered, starting to choke on the blood running down his throat.

Taehyun held his nape, trying to sit him up to breath easier. "HUENINGKAI!!?? LISTEN TO ME AND STOP THE GLITCHING TAKE US BACK RIGHT NOW!!! YOURE ALRIGHT JUST GET US OUT!! I KNOW YOU LOVE ME!!" taehyun didnt know what to do, yet again. He gently shook hueningkai but his head fell back, eyes still open but not shining.

"Hueningkai?.....kai?? Your blood is red still...kai??" Taehyun tried pulling up his health screen, not worried over his avtar dying from it even if he couldnt see it. He would have to pay him back with a new avatar before he left.

The white space fell apart around them and taehyun woke up kn the ground of the arena, victory golds floating above each of their team members.

Taehyun was beyond happy, but beomgyu and yeonjun looked both pissed and hurt that they had won.

"Woah ..whats wrong? We can get them new avatars guys its not that big of a deal?"....taehyun furrowed his eyeborws, seeing yeonjun holding soobins avatar.

"Taehyun? Your name is Taehyun?" Yeonjun bit his lip, drying a pool of tears on his chin.

"You heard us?" Taehyun was shocked.

"You still talk while youre there you know.....we werent ready for this taehyun....couldnt you have put the team first?" Beomgyu wiped his face but couldnt even look at taehyun.

"Guys seriously?? We WON what the fuck is your deal??!" Taehyun was getting upset at their attitude.

"If you hadnt been so obssessed with winning you couldve listened to hueningkai and cared for what he had to say....soobin hates my guts, so no....i dont think hell make a new avatar and log on again....that was my last chance." Yeonjun stood up, dissapointed in the entire team and himself.

"The game gave notifications when you were with kai, just read them over if you care about the team even a bit. You didnt even tell us you were gonna ditch us after we won for you." Beomgyu gave taehyun a cold look before standing and logging off without another word.

Yeonjun set soobins avatar down gently, hugging himself and pondering whether to talk to taehyun more. In the end he didnt have anything else to say, and simply logged off right behind beomgyu.

Taehyuns mouth drooped open, his mood permanently ruined by the teams hatred of him now. He opened the notifications menu and scrolled down from the "》ArcherBin has been defeated" notification.

Game nullified by system. Ending round....

》System messages open?

yes

-
Yeonjun couldnt leave it at this. Soobin hated him, and wouldmt speak to him, and now with his avatar defeated he couldmt log in for another 2 months. The grand penalty for losing the major leagues.

He put his hands in his pockets, trying to warm them up in the cold night air. He was sitting on the curb outside of soobins house. The house was completely dark, so the family had obviously fallen asleep.

We just lost our team...our bonds....i just want to see him, explain things.

Yeonjun saw an open window letting the cool breeze cool off the house. His eyebrows furrowed seeing exactly WHICH window it was.

He mentally went over the interior of the house he had been chased out of just earlier in the day. That specific window was upstairs and to the left, and he couldve sworn thats where he broke into soobins bedroom.

I have to try.....at least..

Yeonjum stood from the curb, dusting his hands and climbing the tree under the window. His hands couldnt quite reach the window seal, so he placed a wobbly foot on the gutter of the shingles around the first floor.

He pulled himself up, almost falling to his death in under a second, but catching himself on the window seal.

He caught his breath and let his heart slow before looking in, praying that this wasnt soobins parents bedroom, and that he wouldnt see anything he didnt want to see.

Instead he saw a young man, sleeping in his bed, the familar soft mop of black hair draped over the pillow. His hands were brought to his face, and he seemed to be struggling to sleep only because of his quiet crying. His body spoke the same, in the same clothes as this morning, curling up and hugging his arms, seeming slightly chilled.

"Choi Soobin!" Yeonjun whisper shouted for him, holding onto the window seal for dear life.

Soobins crying paused as he looked around confused at who had called him.

His eyes spotted the dark familiar traitor hanging outside his window.

His gasp wasnt a happy surprise one, hurting yeonjun deeper than he already was.

"Please, let me explain, just once! I swear ill leave after!! Just listen!" Yeonjun begged quickly as soobin tried closing his window.

"No! Youre an asshole Choi Yeonjun! Did your girlfriend even know that we-? YOU KNOW WHAT- I DONT WANNA KNOW!" Soobin tried to move yeonjuns fingers to close the window, making yeonjun fall back and lose grip.

"YEONJUN!" soobin threw himself forward and hugged around yeonjuns torso, keeping him from falling back.

Yeonjun clung to him, just as scared to fall from this high up. He used the opportunity to cling to soobins unintentional hug.

"Listen to me, i didnt play around with you, would i really go through these lengths to lie more?.."
