Bitten (Dreamcatcher ft.Loona)

13-Traitor

The girls were walking through the dark hallway, following the middle-aged man that was leading the way.

There was a lamplight on each side of the creepy wall, so they have no problem seeing where the middle-aged man going.

Once they reached a particular room, there was a single rectangular table and several chairs in the centre of the room. There were also some kinds of displays and decoration in the room. The decorations were giving them an animal theme vibe. A carpet fur that looks like it is made by some fur animal, a skeleton that looks like a crocodile and even a realistic bird on the shelf on the right corner of the room.

Gahyeon quickly stepped back, slowly going to Haseul's back as she gripped over the fabric of her shirt.

"Gahyeon? You're okay?" Haseul asked. Gahyeon didn't answer, instead eyeing the creepy man.

"I am sure you are thirsty after your long journey, you girls can just sit there while I take some drinks for you ladies." The man said.

"How thoughtful of you." Haseul replied with a smile.

The man smiles and nods. He left the girls and leave the room to get the drinks for them.

The girls decided to use this moment to rest their legs by sitting on the chairs together, well except for Yoohyeon, who was full of curiosity as she walk around the room.

"Do you guys think they are made from a real skeleton of the animals?" Yoohyeon asked the quiet girls, checking closer to the crocodile skeleton as she tries to poke it.

The girls have completely ignored her. "Right, there is no way you guys are going to answer me like this." Yoohyeon murmured sadly.

"Hey, don't touch it without permission." Haseul suddenly speaks up. Yoohyeon quickly freeze like a statue as she heard Haseul's voice, talking to her.

Yoohyeon slowly turns toward Haseul as she nods her head. She walked back to where Haseul and Gahyeon sitting and sat beside the quiet girl.

"Hey, you okay?" Yoohyeon's voice enough can make the younger girl almost jump up from her chair.

Gahyeon turned her head to Yoohyeon. Her sweat was visible on her face. Although her face was as pale as a ghost, she still smile at the older girl.

"I'm fine. But I feel uncomfortable seeing all these dead animals displayed across this room. I guess maybe this is my first time coming here."

"You said you prefer eating meat than vegetarian." Yoohyeon pointed out, remember what Gahyeon said earlier.

Gahyeon sighed. "Well, its nothing for you to be worried about, unnie. I am just not feeling good." Gahyeon said.

Haseul decided to stand up. She walked over to the younger girl. Squatting to level her height with Gahyeon who was sitting on the chair, she presses the back of her hand on Gahyeon's forehead, checking the temperature of the paled girl. She felt neither hot nor cold temperature from the said girl.

"Hmm? I must say you don't have any fever. You don't feel too hot."

"I just said I am not too feeling good doesn't mean I have fever." Gahyeon said in her smaller tone.

"Should we just go home? I don't think we can stay here any longer when Gahyeon is sick." Yoohyeon look at Gahyeon worriedly. Worried that Gahyeon might pass out any time soon if they keep staying here.

"Unfortunately, we can't leave. All of us in our camp will die of starvation if we don't get our food supply ready." For the first time ever (Yoohyeon believe), Haseul finally replied after ignoring her for so long.
