A/N: it is very urgent that you listen to this song (MV version) while you read ☺️

Yeonjun pressed his hand on the cage door, taking in a sharp exhaled before lightly pushing it to the side.

He couldn't believe it; it actually sprung open, except with a heavy creak that felt shrill in their ears.
But that was the least of their concerns. 

"You guys... we already have this one  step easier," he awed.

"Then let's get out now, before anyone comes in to check," Soobin instructed.

"Oh you don't need to tell me that twice," Hueningkai replied.

The five crossovers rose themselves off the ground of their cage, as far as their height permitted them to, with Taehyun getting help from Beomgyu to stand for a moment.

But before doing anything, and they knew they may regret this later but they had to it, they yowled and howled loudly.

Howls that initiated their rebellion.

Howls that wanted their freedom back.

The freedom that awaits them just a few moments away. 

Yeonjun kicked the door open, breaking it into pieces thanks to its terribly rusty state.

"COME ON!"

And finally, the five crossovers could leave the damned cage.

Taehyun held onto the iron bars for support before climbing swiftly onto Yeonjun's back, wrapping his arms around his neck while the older secured him on his back by holding onto his thighs tightly.

"Get him away from here," Soobin demanded.

"Got it."

Soobin and Beomgyu sprinted through the room, fists balled tightly before punching directly through the locks of many other cages. Those weak iron locks broke at the contact of their strong hands, landing in pieces of rotten and oxidized metal on the ground.

The noise of the shatters pulled half of the animals out of their sleep. They stirred into consciousness, and looked at the five crossovers in confusion.

"GO! ESCAPE!" Soobin yelled.

The animals in the cage looked at the gates, seeing it slightly ajar. And then they too knew... their door to freedom was finally free.

One by one, they left their prisons.

Soobin knew that they were doing the right thing, even if it was incredibly risky. But he also recognized that right now, they had to trust each other, and themselves.

"KEEP GOING BEOMGYU!"

The ravenet nodded, and ran, breaking another lock in the next second.

Hueningkai's ears perked up when he heard the sounds of footsteps nearing, even though they were still a good distance away.

"HYUNGS THEY'RE COMING!" he shouted before hiding somewhere for the meantime.

Beomgyu nearly slithered into a cage due to his speed; he had really tried his best to hurry up, but looks like it wasn't enough.

"SHIT, WE NEARLY GOT ALL OF THEM OUT!"

Soobin ran over to him and broke through the next lock.

"GO WITH THE OTHERS; I'LL TAKE CARE OF IT!" he shouted.
