they all die in the end.

{Chapter 4. Truth}

"And it's me you come back to"

He plunges the knife in and out of me but all I can do is scream. It almost feels like no one can hear me?
What have I done to deserve this?!
All of a sudden my vision goes dark and I feel some form of freedom. It doesn't last long but it's Still there...
Minho POV:

I wake up next to Lucas and lily. Wow what a night! I think the guilt of using Christopher's twin brother to trick lily into thinking he's still alive is slowly fading. That's until I see jisung peak through the bedroom Door, holding Christopher's dead body with a look of indescribable mania like he could pounce at any second and just kill us all. I stay calm and quickly wake Lucas up and he gets clothes on and leaves while I deal with jisung. He lunges at me with a knife and stabs me quickly, it's not over just yet. I tackle him and slap him across the face as I bleed out "What the fuck are you doing here?!" I whisper.
"I'm here to take you and lily" He says while my eyes fill with tears and I go numb as he stabs me again but this time in the neck. I know there's no escaping this situation anymore and there's almost no way to save lily from him. My vision goes black and It starts to feel like I'm falling into a black hole. I try screaming but nothing comes out, I've lost all hope.
Next thing I know I'm in the back of a white van with a passed out lily. I can't tell if she's dead or just passed out. I start to panic but before I can check for a pulse the car stops. The doors swing open and I fix myself to just go limp again to have the impression that I'm dead. All of a sudden I'm thrown into the water, I panic and open my eyes hoping to try and find lily but she's no where to be seen. The van drives off and the realization just hits me

We've been separated..

Lily POV:

I wake up in a dark room. God I've been here before. I lock eyes with jisung.
"Where's minho?!" I ask, my eyes filling up with tears
"Hes long gone now" Jisung says in a comforting, Almost calming tone.
I begin to cry as I realize I might never see him again. Jisung tries to hug me as I scream like a little girl. Like a helpless little girl.. the one I've turned into..
"Aww baby" jisung says with a smirk on his face as he grabs my chin and makes me look at him.
"Jisung stop!" I yell just before he slaps me.
"Adress me normally!" He screamed at me as my stomach drops and my eyes fill with tears as he smirks at me. He's in control now. He's in control of me.
"How do I adress you?" I ask, knowing there's no way out of this. Minho can't save me anymore.
"Adress me as sir." He says as I try and hold back tears.
"Yes sir.."

[Time skip] 2:30pm 8/17/23

I've been in here for God knows how long. It doesn't seem like he's ever gonna let me out. I'm scared but atleast he feeds me and occasionally takes me out on a walk. I've become a prisoner. A human slave... I've just become his personal sex toy. I often spend my nights sobbing in one of the cold corners of this stupid bunker. Slowly bleeding out from the cuts that he's given me. I just wanna be set free. I wanna experience normal human emotion. I wanna know what it's like to be loved.. loved more than jisung does.. loved easier. I wake up the next day in an unusually comfortable bed. I feel jisung wrap his arms around me from behind
"How'd you sleep darling?" He asks as he burries his head into my neck
"Are you gonna stab me?" I ask in a worried tone as he presses a soft kiss onto my neck.
"I'm not gonna stab you darling" He says as he slowly pulls away from my warm body
"Where am I?" I ask, trying to sound as innocent and sweet as possible so he doesn't hurt me.
"Your in my house" He says while getting on top of me
"Jisung please get off of me" I say as he gets off of me with an embarrassed look on his face. "Do you want breakfast?" He asks with a smile on his face, grabbing my hand and basically pulling me out of my bed. "You gotta be quiet. Chris is sleeping" my stomach drops and my heart paces in my chest when I hear his name.
"C- Chris?" I stutter.
"Yes, he's just another one of my prisoners- just like you!" He Continuesly Smiles as he says it. Going on and on about how special me and 'chris' are.
"Okay let's go get breakfast" I cut him off before he can say anything more. He nods in agreement as he walks out of the door, following him while we pass a room. There's a lock on the door and I can hear crying while someone bangs on the door.
"Let me outt!!" The man sobs as I smile when I hear his tone. It's chris- what's he doing here? That doesn't matter. He deserves it, he sounds so helpless as he screams louder.
"I'm sorry please let me outt!!" I hear him scream again. Jisung grabs my hand and takes me down the stairs, I begin to look around and my eyes pan over to the TV. "Stray kids members "lily park. Christopher bang. Minho Lee. Jisung han and Changbin seo" MISSING for over 3 years. No leads yet. Family of the missing members starting to presume worst. Stay tuned for more news" the reporter says in a monotone voice just before the news cuts to Comercial.. 'Over 3 years?!' I say as jisung kisses me.
'No need to worry about that my dear. Your all safe now' he speaks as my body shakes in fear
"Jisung I've been gone for over 3 years and so has changbin? Not to mention.. where is minho?!" I say while my eyes swell with tears. I can't fucking believe I've been separated from minho for three years on end. I don't know where he is and I don't think I'm getting let out any time soon. Jisung picks me up as I begin to sob freely.
"Where is everybody?! Where's minho?"
I speak, my voice cracking every few seconds.
"I can't disclose that" jisung says as he continues to hold me.
"Let me see him!!" I scream while throwing myself out of his grasp. I don't know where minho is but he's gotta be somewhere in here.
"That's no way to talk to me!!" He says while wiping my tears and grabbing a knife. There's slight shuffles and mumbles coming from upstairs just before I see someone come from upstairs. 'Oh no you don't!' a dark haired boy speaks as he smacks jisung with a soda bottle. Purple liquid explodes on his head and all over his clothing. The bottle falls on the floor 'fanta, grape flavor' it's been a while since I've seen one of those.. jisung falls over while crying softly.
'Oh he's such a baby' the dark haired boy said. 'Oh I'm heeseung by the way' he Says, oh my god it's Lee heeseung. The boy I'd hooked up with just before me and chris got together.
'Lily, yes?' He says while grabbing my hand.
"Yes.. I belive your heeseung?" I say while looking into his dark eyes.
"Hey back off dude! That's my girl!" Another boy speaks. I easily recognize his appearance. It's Seoho. The dude I'd dated since college. Why are all these men coming to me NOW?!?
"Guys no one gives a shit!!" I scream while stomping one foot on the floor.
"We all want out of here and I wanna find my minho!"
"Your.. minho??" Heeseung Says in a disappointed tone
"Oh shut up seung!!" Seoho screams while knocking jisung unconscious. Seoho Had a point. No one really cared about heeseungs opinion. He was just a hookup after all.. I didn't love him now but I sure as hell did then.. I'm in love with minho now. I want him back, it's been years and God knows how long he's been looking for me. But he's missing too.

(Minho POV: [1/17/2022] )

I curse to myself as I hold a knife to my throat getting ready to slice the skin enough to kill myself. I can't take it without lily. She's been gone for 2 almost 3 years. I've looked for her every single day and yet I still can't find her!! Just as I'm about to dig the Sharpe blade into my neck someone grabs me. It's jisung. Why is he here??
He quickly takes me to this big mansion not too far away from the dorms. All the other members besides seungmin  killed themselves. They were lost without chan and the weight of changbin and han going missing means they lost all of 3racha. Jeongin hung himself from the balcony and felix overdosed on pills. I tried to keep hyunjin going but when felix died it took a toll on his mental health. He couldn't function without lix. I felt so bad and I couldn't get out of bed for weeks on end. Hyunjin was my other half, even though we bickered back and forth alot we needed eachother to survive. I don't know how seungmin kept going but I can't explain how proud I am.
"What the fuck?!" I scream as I get thrown onto a cold floor. Oh God I'm in a basement again, I begin to freely sob while my body shakes.
"This is what happens when you love someone else!" He smiles as he slowly crawls towards me. I'm still shaking In fear as he glances down at my pants. I give him the 'consent nod' as he takes off my pants quickly and walks to a cabinet to grab a pink buzzy thing. He walks back and presses it against my tip as he turns it on, I squirm around quickly as he grabs some tape. Basically attaching the buzzy thing to my hard. Before we all had our downfall me and jisung would occasionally do this kinds of stuff but I no longer have feelings for him. Which he won't be too happy about when he finds out. I'm in love with lily.. not him. I mean he hooked up with chris and left me there. Why would love him? I open my eyes to see a tall figure behind him oh my god it's heeseung?! I just saw him a few days ago?! He smashes a purple bottle against jisung's head as the same colored liquid explodes all over his clothing and hair. I release onto my stomach as heeseung looks down at me. "Nice dick man."
