"Ji..."
The machete flew right into the hands of a familiar face. She stood there slouched with blood leaking out of her shoulders. Her face had lost colour but she had an expression of determination which made Jeongyeon's eyes sparkle with hope and relief.
Chaeyoung dragged herself over to the edge and peak down.
"Jihyo-unnie! Tzuyu! She's alive!"
Tzuyu didn't respond.
"Jihyo.."
Jeongyeon reached her arm out for her leader but she just smiled. She turned away to face Annie, who had landed inside of the circle.
"You vacuous human! Don't get in my way!"
Jihyo lifted up the machete, looking at herself in the reflection. Her eyes were swollen and her cheekbones popped out like a dying person. Blood stained her face with wounds covering her entire body. She couldn't believe the person she had become.
Fatigue hindered Jeongyeon's ability to lift herself up. She fell back down onto the ground unable to move her body. She turned her head to face Jihyo, who had the machete up against her hand.
"Jihyo?"
"What... What are you doing, Jihyo?"
She didn't say a word.
"JIHYO!"
Her hand moved against the blade, slicing open her palm as blood spilled on top of the ritual circle. The circle zapped before blinding them with a bright red beam of light.
Jeongyeon laid there covering her eyes. The sound of Annie's screams were drowned out by the violent tremors of the orphanage.
She rubbed her eyes before opening them up only to see Jihyo collapsed down to one knee. The machete slipped out of her hand and into the crack of the floor. Her body slowly disintegrated with limbs falling apart and blooding spilling all over Jeongyeon.
Chaeyoung witnessed the whole thing unfold from the second floor. The cord that attached her last bit of sanity had been severed.
"AHHH!!"
Annie dropped to the ground as the circle wrapped around her, slowly compressing her body together as it gradually grew smaller.
"He...lp.."
Annie's eyes met Jeongyeon's. Memories flowed through her mind in the last few moments of her life.
*Vision*
"Annie. Come with me"
Luke pulled down the attic ladder and guided Annie up into the darkness.
"Where are we going?"
"Somewhere fun..."
Annie noticed a bright red light coming from around the corner. The captivating colour entranced her as she followed behind her father.
She turned the corner to find a red circle glowing on the floor. It allured her almost like it was calling out to her.
"What... is it?"
She turned back to find Luke nowhere to be seen. She searched around but the darkness made it difficult. Her body tensed up as she heard a muffled noise in the distance, gradually getting closer.
"W-Who's there?"
A figure slowly emerged from within the darkness, strapped up onto a chair with tape covering their mouth. Luke revealed himself.
