Someone screamed my name with great sorrow. But it was too late. I felt the void fetching me from the ashes of his own doing.

Bright. Blinding. Blaring.

The light is so hot as it touches her skin. Too hot. It's burning. Yet her heart welcomes it, as if it lives and thrives with the glory of it, including the thousands of sparkling balls of light that bangs with the dance beats, which resonates with each pore and vibrates through the very core of her soul.

Her heart palpitates and expands, as if bursting, so much elated... so much alive.

It's pleasure. It's heaven. The adrenaline trembles through the nerves akin to the strongest coffee that had been consumed for the third time. It's an addiction... a glorified addiction.

She feels a touch on her back, making her turn and see the most beautiful pair of starlit eyes. They shimmer and twinkle but then slits in worry.

"Hyung?"

'Hyung?' Her mind parrots in question.

Something stirs. Her head aches with something other than the deafening chants of the people around and the vibration that comes with it. And then her gaze lands to each of them. Strands of their immaculate hairs are wet with sweat, muscles puffing out as their chests heaves as they breathe. They look so wonderful... so beautiful. Their skins are like porcelain, glistening and flawless with the tint of reds as they flush with exhaustion... from dancing... from singing...
