"They're weird."

It had barely been a few minutes since the couple left and the twins had been sitting at the couch for those minutes while they were stared at by the other adults. Michi nodded in agreement and patted Fulmine's head who was laying in his lap. Michi counted the adults and noticed one was missing. "Where's Uncle Wolf?" Michi asks and Jeongin, possibly their favorite uncle, looks frantically around for the missing male. "He might be in the kitchen making dinner," Jeongin said and left the group to find his significant other.

The others looked back at the couch. The twins were gone. "Oh, shit," Minho whispered and everyone looked at each other. "They could just be exploring," Jisung said with a nervous chuckle. "How did they sneak away so quietly though, and in 2 minutes," Hyunjin said. "They're Felix's kids, don't you remember him randomly showing up behind you?" Seungmin said as he pushed his boyfriend's head forward with a disappointed tsk. "True."

"Do you think this one is daddy's room?" Michi asks and Ryu nodded his head. "Yeah, for sure," Ryu said and reached up onto the doorknob; grabbing it and pulling it down. Michi pushed it open and the two stumbled inside, their eyes widening at the dark interior. "Woah...defiantly daddy's rooms," Michi said as he walked further in as he dropped the puppy he was holding. "How do you know? What if it's Uncle Channie's room?" Ryu asks as he closes the door. Michi stopped and lifted his arm, pointing towards the frame that was placed on the right side table. "It's papa...and there is papa," Michi said and moved his arm to point towards the dresser where another frame was.

Ryu walked over to the bedside table and grabbed the frame, holding it in front of him. "So..Mr.Binnie might actually be daddy?" Ryu asks as he turned around and showed the frame to his younger sibling. "Yeah, I think so," Michi said and the two stared at each other before nodding in agreement about their words. "Yep, Mr. Binnie is daddy."

"Changbin, I swear-"

Changbin snickered as Felix gave a soft chuckle and picked up the wine glass that was next to his hand. "Have they really done that?" He asks and Changbin hums in response. "Yeah," Changbin said and followed Felix's actions. Felix swallowed his drink and placed the glass down. "How has everything been going with the whole...superhero business?" Felix questions and snickers at Changbin's face. "Would you stop calling it superhero business," Changbin asked and Felix shook his head. "No, I like your reaction," Felix said and Changbin rolled his eyes.

They fell silent for a few minutes and Changbin was going to start another conversation when Felix's head lifted up quickly and his head turned. "Everything okay?" Changbin asked and Felix shook his head. "Weird...tingly feeling," Felix said and Changbin's eyes went to the male's fingers which were doing the same movement as Hyunjin's fingers whenever he got a weird feeling. "Tingly feeling?" Changbin mumbles and Felix hums and looks at him. "Is the guy you're fighting, can he control electricity?" Felix asks and Changbin shakes his head. "Um...not that I can remember," Changbin said and Felix's eyes scanned the area. "Can he go invisible?" Felix asks and Changbin shakes his head quickly. "Lix..."

"He's here. Don't ask me how I know, but-"

The power went out and there were a series of groans that echoed through the restaurant. Changbin sighs and grabs Felix's hand. "Don't apologize, this feels like what would usually happen," Felix whispers, and Changbin frowns at the comparison. Felix felt the hair on the back of his neck stand up and he gripped Changbin's hand tightly. "I think you should call the others," Felix whispers as he slowly pushes his chair back, "and tell everyone to get under the table."

Changbin's eyebrows furrowed as Felix slipped under the table and a few seconds later, a large surge of electricity bounced around the lights, causing only a few to turn back on creating a dim atmosphere. Someone else's voice echoed about the safety rule, hiding under the table, and everyone quickly followed it. Changbin slipped under the table and was met with Felix glaring at him. "I told you," He said and Changbin shook his head. "You know, shock is a good thing to have, especially when you said you don't have anything left."

"I haven't been put in immediate danger and I also forgot that I can sense electricity since most of the time in my house, the lights are off because I was always downstairs with the twins."

"Arguing is not going to help," Changbin said and Felix rolls his eyes. "You started it," Felix mumbles, and Changbin kisses his cheek. "Give me your watch so I can call the others," Felix said and Changbin took off the wearable electronic and handed it to Felix. "Where's the thing at," Changbin asks as he gets ready to move out from under the table.

Felix looked through his eyebrows to scan the surrounding areas. "He's...in the other room," Felix said, "the electricity is distant." Felix looked back to the watch and Changbin rubbed his leg. "We can redo this later," Changbin said and Felix simply hummed. Changbin frowns at the disappointment before quickly removing himself from under the table. "Bin," Felix whispers, and Changbin squats back down. "Can I have my wine?"

"Seriously?"

"Just give it to me or this is going to be a solo mission."

Felix sat under the table as he messaged Seungmin about the current situation, his body being covered with goosebumps anytime the electricity was shot and his heart ached with every groan he heard from Changbin. "Oh my god, y'all are freaking slow," Felix cursed and typed the exact message to Seungmin who instantly apologized. Felix placed the watch next to him and he pushed the glass to the side, trying his best to remember anything when it hit him. "Stupid, if it's electricity, water."

Felix carefully crawled out from under the table and crawled towards the waitress stand which was in the hallway that separated both of the dining areas, giving the view of the fight between an invisible person and Changbin. Felix slowly stood up and fixed his hair and his outfit, mentally cursing at the person who had ruined their date. He grabbed the water jug and slipped into the room, taking a few steps back when Changbin rolled to his feet. "Hi, Binnie," Felix said with a smile. "Yes...why do you have water?" Changbin asks. "Because, if electricity then they can't go in the water, I learned the extremely hard way," Felix said and glared at his date who chuckled nervously. "Here, go."

Changbin stood up and took the water. "He's coming towards you, throw it now," Felix said and stood behind the male he was talking with, watching Changbin throw the water in front of it. The liquid coated the invisible person and Felix smirked. "Okay um...trap it, they were taking forever and I don't have-"

Felix quickly pulled Changbin down when a burst of electricity flowed through the room, nearly zapping them. "Does that happen?" Changbin asks. "Um...not to me last time I checked," Felix panicked and watched as the invisible thing became a full person, both of them being confused as to who it was.

Felix stared at the person before it click, gently hitting Changbin's arm multiple times. "Isn't that the guy who burned down a few grocery stores a few months ago?" Felix asks and Changbin looked at him. "Um...yeah," Changbin said and he looked at the person who had confusion laced on every inch of his body.

"Where am I? Why am I covered in water?"
