Seonghwa led while San followed his steps into the dark that swallowed them. Thankfully it wasn't too dark for them to use their flashlights just yet and waste the battery.

"Part of me wants to hope that when you said 'Vultures', you meant the animals, right."

Seonghwa looked back at San with a serious look. San sighed knowing that he did not mean the wild birds. "What exactly are these 'Vultures' then?"

"A group of people who hunt humans and eat their flesh. Dead or Alive."

San felt his body shiver. Just the thought of them made him regret not coming with the others, and he had a feeling once they heard about the Vultures, Yunho would kick the shit out of him.

"Oh great, we now have a group of Jeffrey Dahmers who want to eat us."

Seonghwa chuckled at the youngers statement. "That's one way to put it."

San smiled at the older and the two continued to walk in comfortable silence. San felt like they were walking down the dark hallway for a very long time, there were no turns or corners.

Just a straight hallway.

"Um.. Seonghwa?" The older turned his head to tell him he was listening. "Is it supposed to be a straight hallway?"

"Yeah that's one thing I forgot to tell you."

San turned to him with slight fear in his face.

"It's going to be a straight walk for a couple hours before we can even get close to the switch box." Seonghwa pulled his flashlight out and clicked it on.

"A couple hours!" Sans's voice bounced off the walls. His echo seemed to go on forever.

"Like I said, the building isn't safe to cross through. And we're not in a hallway."

"We're in a train tunnel."


Hongjoong cursed under his breath when they had to pull over because of the storm. Yunho decided to use that time to get some sleep just in case he had to drive for a few more hours.

"Hey, we'll find him."

Hongjoong turned to the voice and smiled softly at Mingi. "I know, but that doesn't stop me from worrying about him." Hongjoong muttered. He kept his voice low for Yunhos sake.

"I have a feeling that he's thinking about you too." Mingi put a hand on his shoulder and lightly rubbed it.

"Yeah, he knows I'm going to kill him." Hongjoong gave a big smile this time at the thought.

"You might have to beat Yunho to it though. You think your short legs could run faster than him?"

"Just because I'm short does-." Hongjoong paused, fear crossing over his face as he looked out Yunho's window. Mingi turned to see what he was looking at and started to hit Yunho to wake up.

"Ow- OW! What the hell!" Yunho said loudly. He was about to ask why they looked scared when he turned in the direction they were looking.
