"Hmm?" Y/n cracked an eye open.

What had happened before?

Well, it was easy to say, the injured bunch either got chloroformed or knocked out and dragged away.
Y/n tilted her head back and released a long-suffering sigh.

Somewhere to her left in the darkness, she could hear screaming accompanied by a panicked, "no, no, NOOOOOO!"
It was clearly Hu Tao, who luckily survived her ordeal.

Hu Tao was tied up, her arms bound above her head and ankles pinned by thick rope. She was flat on her face, turning her head to communicate with the person behind her.
At her back crouched Albedo, who gripped onto the bloody knife wedged in the girl's flesh.
Y/n watched as he yanked slowly, drawing more cries of pain from Hu Tao. They could vaguely see the metal beginning to show as the knife slipped out, blood oozing from the wound.
Of course, Hu Tao only shrieked louder, forcing Albedo to let go and watch the knife slowly sink back in. He winced and adjusted his seated position- on his knees, due to being bound by the ankles like Hu Tao. His wrists were surprisingly free, considering the rope being tied tight around his wrists. Though, the material was lengthy so he could keep Hu Tao alive?
Y/n didn't know.

Y/n's throat was dry and it felt like sandpaper when she swallowed.
Coughing and attempting to scoot forwards on the chair she was tied to, she approached her friends.

"Guys..." She croaked, "what happened?... My brain is so foggy."

Albedo wiped the blood from his hands onto dark pants, the stains mostly invisible. He sighed and pressed a hand to his forehead. "I do not remember well... And I probably shouldn't say this, but- "I told you so."

Hu Tao groaned, both in pain and annoyance. "Just shut the hell up. We need to get out- I feel like I'm bleeding to death!"

"You are." The boy stated bluntly.

"Oh, great. This is such a pathetic way to go. I thought my death would be somewhat heroic... Or incredibly tragic." She groaned again- this time dramatically.

Y/n shook her head at the two, "well, I certainly do not want to die."

"Same here." Albedo piped up.

Hu Tao groaned once again, "I admit it too... But I feel like I'm actually dying." She rested her head on the concrete of the room they were trapped in. "If I weigh you guys down, just leave me."

"Never!" Y/n shifted further towards them on her wooden chair. "You mean a lot to me- I won't leave you!"

Albedo sighed, "let's stop just feeling sorry for ourselves and use our brains... Firstly, where are we?"

Hu Tao struggled to turn her neck and look around.

Y/n tapped her lip, "seems we are in a cellar-"

"The one Kokomi was in?" Hu Tao said breathily and shared a knowing look with the blond beside her.

Once again, sensing Hu Tao's distraction, Albedo tugged gently on the knife lodged in her back.
Her scream echoed about the cellar.
He froze and guiltily let it slide back in with a squelch.

Y/n slowly turned herself around in the chair to face the door.
It was metal... And surprisingly was not locked- at least by what they could see.

Then, the doorknob turned, and in stepped a tired Sangonomiya Kokomi

The coral haired girl rubbed her eyes and yawned softly, before locking eyes with Y/n. "You finally awake?"

Y/n -in a defiant protest- stayed quiet... All except releasing an angry hiss from between her teeth.
