Misapprehension | Kth

The Dark

Drops of drool dripped down on the cold cement floor of the jail cell forming a little puddle of the liquid beside the face of the sleeping form of the twenty year old boy, who, unfortunately had no idea that he was currently trapped in deep dongen of a mansion.

The feeling of being uncomfortably laying on the hard floor made him turn his body in sleep as he slowly rested his body sideways, oh but his drool made contact with his cheek making him groan in his sleep and consciousness flowed into his body.

Letting out a huge yawn like a five year old, he silently sat up rubbing his eyes in the process but he stopped, looking around with panic stricken eyes, his brain didn't waste a second as it went to full alert mode which made him stand up and observe everything around him.

Eyes as wide as saucers as Taehyung finally notices that he is in a jail cell, three concrete walls and one side of metal bars, how typical? Though for him, the real question here was 'How did I end up here?', raising his hands to his head, he grabbed a fistful of his hair as he yelled on top of his lungs.

'It wasn't supposed to go like this! I was supposed to go and kill her, just damn kill her! Arh! Why did I have to waste my time?! Why did I have to fall in her trap?! Look now where I am! Why?! Just why?!'

Unable to pressurise his anger within him, he let out another long and raspy yell.

If you knew his inner emotions, you will feel at least some pity. On the inside of his fragile heart, lied there a crying fourteen year old, blaming himself for every negative thing ever taking place, he felt as if he failed his parents because he failed to complete his mission.

"There it is! The tiger you are! Wide and awake!" A foreign voice boomed, making Taehyung flinch in surprise and supress his arising panick attack, bringing up his shield of defence against this unknown guy who calls him 'Tiger'.

The man wasn't completely unknown to him though, Taehyung assumed the man to be one of Aru's workers who is supposed to watch over Taehyung until only his corpse lies inside the little cell.

Taehyung's one hand stayed by his side as the other went behind his back to take out his hidden gun- oh wait, there's no gun...

"Trying to use your weapons I see, but sorry to inform you, they are confiscated until we completely trust you with them." The mysterious man smirked at the trapped boy. Wait, are they going to give him his weapons back? Why would they trust Aru's 'Almost murderer'?

"You will give me my weapons back? Why?" His raspy voice coming out as a whisper as he asked, "Oh, it's just the matter of trust, kid, if you win the trust of our boss, you're free to do anything!" The man beamed proudly and grinned as he stepped forward to open the gates of the cell.

"Your boss?" Taehyung suspiciously asked the grinning stranger, but without a word he pulled Taehyung out of the cell and held his hands behind his back, pushing him forward to walk. The confused boy kept walking as curiosity and confusion engulfed him within their never-ending depths.

After walking up the stairs, then riding the elevator, then walking through some fancy looking hallways and past some doors, Taehyung and the 'Man' finally stopped in front of a door, and his mind waited in anticipation for his eyes to witness what lies behind the laminated door...
