Ji-Woon's POV

My love falls fast asleep in my arms. She looks absolutely adorable. Quite frankly I'm beyond happy she decided to come see me, although it's dangerous. I have to keep her safe even from the entity if I have to.

I slowly and carefully get out of the bed, making sure not to wake my sleeping angel. I cover her with the blankets on my bed and quickly head out. Before I go I need to make sure nobody goes into my cabin. The only person who knows she's here is Danny, so I should ask him to watch over her.. not entirely sure if I can trust that fucking weirdo though.

I don't see Danny by the campfire so it's safe to assume he's either in his cabin or in a trial. I walk into his cabin without knocking and luckily he is in here. He jumps in surprise as he sees me enter his cabin.

"Ji-Woon what the fuck! Do you know how to knock?" He exclaims while he shakes his head at me. I can't help but let out a scoff, shutting the door behind me.

"Says you Danny. When have you ever knocked to enter my cabin?" I raise an eyebrow at him to which he lets out a sigh.

"Fair point." He shrugs before he continues. "What did you need?" He asks, leaning back in his chair.

"I need a favor," he groans before letting me finish, "I need you to watch over (Y/N). She's asleep in my cabin and I have some business with the entity." Danny's eyes widen.

"First of all what business do you have with the entity?" He gives me a stern glare.

"That's none of your business. Just keep an eye on her, okay? I don't trust these other disgusting people." I shiver at the thought of someone taking advantage of her or hurting her while she's vulnerable. Danny stands from his seat with a chuckle.

"Fine fine. Only because you're my friend and because (Y/N) is interesting." He gives a cocky smirk knowing that his comment would infuriate me. I give him a death glare as I walk up to him.

"If I find out you even lay a single finger on her, I will torture you since I know for a fact I can't kill you." I tower over a terrified Danny, who is now clearly shaking with fear. "Excellent! Just stay with her until I come back. If she wakes up tell her to stay put, got it?" I cross my arms at the anxious man in front of me. He just nods his head.

"Y-yeah! Got it. I'll make sure she's safe.. see ya!" Danny speed walks out of his cabin to get away from me. I let out a chuckle before I head out and make my way to the entity.

I finally reach the place where the entity resides. A place where both killers and survivors can meet with the entity to talk to it. I squint my eyes as I see a human looking shadow appear. Massive claws coming out of its back. There it is, the entity itself.

"What is it you want Ji-Woon." The entity crosses it's arms.

"I want you to give (Y/N) her memories back." I state plainly, giving it a slight glare. I can see the entity raise an eyebrow.

"Why should I do that?" It asks in a calm manner. I roll my eyes before replying.

"You should have never taken them away in the first place. You took years of her life away from her." I speak with an annoyed tone. The entity lets out a heavy sigh.

"I have my reasons for erasing those memories." The entity is still talking in a calm tone. I think about what it just said, it had a reason? I wonder if it has something to do with (Y/N) thinking she might be a killer.

"She told me sometimes she feels like she shouldn't be a survivor. Is that a reason?" I raise an eyebrow, waiting for a response.

"That is a part of the reason, yes. I can give you the explanation you seek but you're going to have to give me an offering." It stares at me as I pull something out of my pocket.

"It's a family heirloom of mine, it's been passed down for generations. This should prove I'm serious about this." I hand over the heirloom with a sigh. It's my most valuable item. The entity takes it from my hand and let's out a chuckle.

"You must really have a thing for her, Ji-Woon. Knowing your selfish nature, you would never do something like this for anyone." The entity doesn't even sound mad as it talks. It actually sounded kind of happy.

"Alright.. let's get on with this so I can get back to her, yeah?" I slightly tilt my head. The entity once again releases a heavy sigh.

"I took quite a liking to (Y/N)," my eyes widen at it's words, my mouth opening as well. "me taking those memories is helping her from internal struggle. If she had those memories she would be constantly fighting herself. In a sense it would be like torture.." it sounded somehow, sad as it talked about this. "I didn't want her to go insane. So I took those memories and locked them away. That's why she's a survivor." I can't help but stare in shock as it spoke. What happened in her life that would make her on the verge of both sides?

"May I.. may I see those memories? I just want to know more about her. I want to know why she would struggle." It takes a couple of seconds for the entity to think.

"If I show you those memories to you, they will automatically go back to her as well. If you are willing to do this to her.." I stop the entity before it could continue.

"I still want to do this. She deserves those memories and she deserves to make this choice herself. I will make sure to be there for her through that struggle." I give a look of determination to the entity who once again takes a while to respond.

"Fine. Only because she's the only person I've taken interest in on such a personal level. I do favor her quite a lot." The entity lets out a chuckle. I never knew the entity could feel this way about someone here. "Keep your word, Ji-Woon. She's going to need you more then anything." I flash a smirk to the entity.

"I will, I promise. But what about trials?" I ask, hoping it won't put us in any for a while.

"Don't worry, until she figures herself out I won't put either of you in trials." The entity sounds way to calm and quite frankly way to nice too. It must really like her. Before I can think any further, the entity snaps it's fingers transporting us into what I assume is the memories (Y/N) has lost. Though it's currently a black void. "We will start from her childhood and gradually go on.. it'll only be the important memories."

All of the sudden the black void around us turned into a house, us being inside it. This must be her childhood home..

Nobody's POV

You quickly jolt awake in a panic. You realize Ji-Woon isn't there anymore which doesn't help your nerves any.

"Woah! Calm down damn." You quickly turn your head to see Danny sitting on Ji-Woon's couch. You let out a yelp.

"Danny what the hell!? Where's Ji-Woon?" You let out a sigh trying to collect yourself. Danny just shrugs his shoulders because he doesn't fuckin know either.

"All he said was that he had business with the entity. He didn't get into the details, he just told me to watch over you to make sure nobody finds you and hurts you. He also told me to make sure you don't leave if you wake up so.. you're stuck with me." He chuckles which makes you groan.

"Ugh, Ji-Woon please come back soon." You speak aloud and Danny just gives you an offended look, you knew he was fucking with you though.
