Yeonjun groans and wakes up, A blinding white light burns his eyes. He grits his teeth, squinting his eyes using a hand to shield the light. It takes a few minutes for him to adjust his eyes.

He blinks and looks around, the light buzzing in head remains. "How do you feel?" Another voice causes him to flinch, He turns his head with a sharp jerk.

Eun sits there, face filled with bruises and lips burst open. His clothes have been torn and hair tousled in four different ways. The usually slicked up hair, parting to show his forehead is down, the bangs almost covering his eyes.

He looks younger than usual and almost innocent. "You didn't know?" It's a question and Eun lets a bitter laugh and Yeonjun is saddened by how raw it sounds. "We were together for two years and not a word. My boyfriend is a sick bastard who deals with human trafficking" He spits with so much venom.

Yeonjun widens his eyes, words registering in his brain a little late, "Human trafficking..The others?" He whispers, shock all too clear in his irises. "Look around princess" Eun mocks and as much as Yeonjun wants to punch the guy he doesn't.

The man is a wounded animal and you don't mess it with it, unless you want to be mutilated. Yeonjun cannot imagine the hurt and betrayal the other would be feeling. He turns around and discovers he has been put in a huge metal cages.

His eyes sweep the brightly lit room, and he spots similar metal cages. He spots the lesbian couple from their loss on the fashion contest and a the two older men at the far end. He lets his fingers run on the metal ad he grips it tight out of anger.

"How long, just how long has this been going on and how many people have fallen prey" He spits out, hitting the metal rod hard and the whole cage reverberates. His knuckles and fingers scream in pain, but he doesn't twitch a muscle on his face.

He looks around again for the mop of blonde hair and for once he hopes he doesn't see it. He hopes Kai would have run away realizing that it was one big scam and doesn't get caught. He doesn't want Huening Kai to undergo this, he wants the boy somewhere safe.

He dearly hopes he doesn't trust and follow Brian like he did. "It won't work" Eun says and Yeonjun frowns in confusion. "What?" He voices it and demands an explanation with his eyes.

"Huening, He trusts Brian more than you do. At least you followed him after knowing your clue led you here. The boy is just going to be a little puppy" Eun says and wow Yeonjun doesn't know what to feel. It's a mix of emotions really.

"You did not have to word it that way. I get it you are angry, but showing it on me or my boyfriend isn't going to do shit" He bites back and Eun opens his mouth but then again closes it lacking of anything to say.

"But how do you know that clue of mine" His eyes narrow and he snarls looking at the other male who lets a defeated sigh.

"You can hear everything that happens on the surface, the space is hollow so it echoes. Your scream gave everyone a heart attack. A lot of them were sleeping actually. Apparently they have been here for long and that women over there overheard the masked men, that the shipment would be four days away the day she was shoved here." Eun says eyes boring into him.

The usual glint in his eyes is gone, his orbs are just empty and dark, he looks bad. He must have been, he can't imagine Kai doing that to him. He would be so broken and yeah worse than Eun is holding up. He slides down, eyes closing as he sighs out.

Dazed and nostalgic, thinking about his friends and even his family who abandoned him. Yeonjun prays that Kai isn't found, if the women heard four days then it would be the next day. The couple were eliminated correctly three days before.
