"What are you?", Eun-hyeok asked.

"I am the firstborn of the God of War, Yun Seul-ki"

"God of war?", he questioned.

"Are you serious?", Hyun-soo asked as he reached for Kyung-min's clothes and handed it to her.

"Hyun-soo, Kyung-min and Seul-ki. Come with me", he signaled for us to get out the door.

"Let her change first.", I say as I cover her with my sweater.

"Only them? I'm okay though. Let me out..", Seok-hyun demanded as Eun-hyeok closed the door.

CHA HYUN-SOO'S POV:

Seul-ki was given a signal by Eun-hyeok to leave. He gave me a grateful stare as he walked away.

"It's important we keep the front gate barricaded at all times. We also need more wooden planks and chains blocking the stairs. Monsters could get through in any moment. The same goes for the room back there. Why do you think I took your side earlier? I'll be honest with the two of you, you'll both be doing the doing the dangerous work from now on. If you two can't do that then I can't help you two."

"What do you mean?", I ask.

"The guy in room 1408. Can you bring him here?", Eun-hyeok asked.

I look at Kyung-min who was just staring at the floor.

"On one condition.", I said.

MEANWHILE HAN DU-SIK:

Du-sik slowly opens the door with his contraption to see a baby in a cocoon like thing. He pointed the contraption at it, ready to pull the trigger. As he was about to pull the baby put its hand on the cocoon and cooed. Almost like telling him to not shoot. He then lowers his contraption and uses it to close the door.

"Are you sure she's not there?", Yeong-su asked.

"No, she's gone. We need to all let her go now.", Du-sik replied as he looks down at the food and handmade towels that she had left for the kids.

BACK DOWNSTAIRS:

"Move it.", Sang-wook said.

"I- no I can't," Seung-wan stuttered.

"Open it.", Eun-hyeok said from behind.

"Are you sure this ok?", Seung-wan asked.

"No, but I don't think we can stop him."

"You're not supposed to-", Seung-wan stuttered as Sang wook broke down the barricade and opened the door.

"I'll go, let her stay and rest.", Hyun-soo said to Eun-hyeok before proceeding to the door.

"Wait a second.", Eun-hyeok said as he grabbed Hyun-soo shoulder before whispering something in his ear.

"Are you crazy?", Kyung-min said referring to what Eun-hyeok had whispered.

"You heard that?", He questioned as he made sure to use the lowest possible voice.

"It was louder then ever. You basically screamed ", she replied not knowing it was all in her mind. She didn't hear anything but she heard it in his thoughts.

Hyun-soo looked at the door and back to Kyung-min before hugging her.

"I'll get the kids no matter what.", Hyun-soo reassured her

"Are you playing with people's lives?", Yi-kyung came from behind and pinned Eun-hyeok to the wall using her forearm.

"We need that man in 1408 and we can't just afford losing anymore time. Now let go", Eun-hyeok defended.
