The first job was done.

A clear cut in a thin thread of his life.

The screams had long since died away in the hallway of the apartment building and the people still alive, hiding in their own four walls in this building, were as quiet as mice. No one had dared or even tried to stop him. No neighborly willingness or charity, as the young Korean would have assumed.

Perhaps it was better that way, because he would not have let it stop him.

Not by anyone.

As he entered the stairwell and glanced out the window that was attached to the wall of the house, he caught a good view of the street and was surprised by the gathering there. Probably some purgers had settled there for a rest, so he had to be careful. In fact, if it wasn't better to stay inside the building until the group moved on.

If only he hadn't noticed this blond mop of hair that belonged to a boy he knew and was friends with.

Min Yoongi.

His hands had been tied behind his back, and as far as he could see, he had a black eye on his right eye. The black eye was probably not a big surprise in the context of the shackles, yet he wondered what his friend Yoongi must have done to get into such a dangerous situation.

Was he supposed to help him?

The Purgers didn't seem like they were going to keep him alive for any length of time, yet it made it seem like the group was looking for something or someone.

The Korean had a queasy feeling in the pit of his stomach.

He wondered if Kihyun had been involved in this as well.

Is it him that the group was looking for?

Yoongi and Kihyun were inseparable in their friendship and if someone like Yoongi - and he looked quite like it - was involved in the Purge, then Kihyun couldn't be far from him.

However, this situation was not his problem.

Even if he wondered what had enticed the two otherwise quiet young men to participate in the Purge. He could not imagine under what circumstances Kihyun would have agreed.

Yoongi always liked to show his temper, even if it went over his head from time to time. One could well imagine that the blond had also caught himself in the clutches of these purgers precisely because of this.

Finally, the observer shook his head in bewilderment, struggling with his conscience. On the one hand, he would just like to get through this night, not interfere with other aggressive purgers. But on the other hand, he couldn't just leave the blond to his fate.
