Jeongin PoV

We stood there like that for a while, while I held his hand and talked a bit. He told me that I slept for two days and that's why he was so worried.

Suddenly loud noises could be heard from outside. My hand let go of Hyunjin's and I went to the window to see what was happening there. I could see one person hitting another. The person was hit again and again. One person's fist was bloody and the other's face was bloody too. When I looked closely I could see the injured person. Changbin... And the other person was... Jisung?

I stormed out of the room and down the stairs. Then I swung the door open and ran to the two. They were further away than it looked from the window. I stopped a few meters further. Jisung repeatedly punched Changbin's face without the older one resisting. Why didn't he fight back?

"This is for Felix!" shouted Jisung and punched him in the face. "It's for making Jeongin feel guilty!" he struck again. "That's for Seungmin hardly speaking to the others!" the next hit. "The next one is for Hyunjin and Chan who are trying to be there for us!" the next punch was a little stronger and the one who was punched stumbled backwards a few steps. "And the last one is for killing Minho!" and with that punch, Changbin's nose was clearly broken.

I could hear more footsteps running in my direction but it was like my ears didn't want to hear. Everything felt silent and it was like I couldn't hear anything anymore. I saw Hyunjin and Felix run past me and pull Jisung away from Changbin. He fought against it and wanted to keep punching the older one.

"Minho... is dead?" I whispered to myself and could feel tears in my eyes. No, that couldn't be true. I wanted to see everyone again... I wanted them all to be well up. But one is no longer alive. And he was killed by Changbin's doppelganger.

Everything went in slow motion. I hadn't noticed at all how Chan and Seungmin had walked here as well. "Come on, I should check your nose," I heard Chan say, pulling Changbin with him and Felix following them. Hyunjin held both of Jisung's arms so he couldn't punch anymore and spoke to him without breaking eye contact.

A gently hand was put on my shoulder. "Felix and Hyunjin told me everything. Hyunjin will try to explain everything to Jisung, but it will be difficult for him to accept..." Seungmin said and I looked at him with glassy eyes. "Hyung... Minho is d-" before I could continue I burst into tears and the latter took me in his arms. "I know... I know," he whispered, rubbing my back.

I buried my face in his shoulder and sobbed. How could that happen? I would have thought that I would find Jisung and Minho as lovebirds again and not separated and one of them desperate and devastated because the other is dead. My tears couldn't stop. It was painful... How will Jisung ever laugh again like he always did? I didn't like the thought of going to continue as seven...

I hated it. I hated how everything went. I just wanted that we could all live together in a beautiful world.

This is not a fairy tale or a Disney movie. People can die here and they wouldn't come back.

Is there an end where we are eight? Is there
an ending where everything went well and no one was replaced by their doppelgangers? Is there an end without pain and sorrow ? Is there a happy ending somewhere in another universe?

There can be no happy ending when one of us died.
