The demon with angelic smile | SKZ ships fanfiction

Don't play chess with a demon

Changbin didn't even bother to look in the mirror. He knew everything and, for some reason only knew by him, the memories were too painful to watch again.

He took his chains and dragged them down the aisle. Only little fractures of Felix's smile were visible trough the glass.

Changbin kept his eyes on the exit, trying to not get distracted by the reflections. Every mirror was showing Felix talking and smiling at Changbin, except for one, at the end. The last mirror was showing Jeongin crying in the middle of an old bridge. When Changbin stepped closer to it and recognized the bridge, he froze.

-It's not fair for him to see everyone's endings. Believe me, I know. I was conscious till all my members died.

Changbin turned around and saw Yeosang smiling weakly.

-So you found us...

-Be thankful I found you and not the others.

-The hunters are after us, huh?

-Be careful... That is my only warning.

They all met at the end of the maze when they spotted Taehyung holding a gun.

-Before you get through the gate, I want you to give back the object you received to the person who last have it. You all saw it, right?

-You said we will give them to you! yelled Changbin pissed.

-I make the rules here. Do you wanna go trough the gate or not?

Changbin shut up and looked at his rusted chains. He walked to Jeongin and put them around his neck.

-I'm sorry, Innie... You had the worst fate among all of us.

A flashback of himself screaming his lungs out on a bridge in the rain hit Jeongin's head. There were ambulances and reporters everywhere, when a doctor handed him the chains. "We did all we could" is all he said before Jeongin's knees hit the wet concrete.

Tears started streaming down his face not knowing why.

-What's wrong with him? asked Seungmin panicking.

-Once you give the object to someone else, a fragment of the memory appears in his head. He just saw a part of how he ended up with the chains.

Changbin felt someone tapping him on his shoulder. He turned around and saw Felix with an earring in his hand.

-Lixie...What did you see in the mirrors?

Felix didn't answer. He just gave Changbin the earring and went back to Minho.

Jisung came to Minho and throw in him the ring.

-A ring?

-An engagement one. You said you wanted it back anyway, said Jisung with tears in his eyes.

Minho was confused, but he needed to give his tie to someone else first. He walked over to Seungmin and put the tie around his neck.

-I'm sorry...

-Why are you sorry?

-You saw some terrible things because of me. It might have marked you.

-Yo!

Seungmin turned his head and saw Hyunjin with the llama plushie.

-For some reason, you ended up with it, said Hyunjin and then backed off.

But Seungmin grabbed him by the material and stopped him.

-I don't know if this counts, but I did give you this.
