 Namjoon's POV.

He could make them out quite clearly now. 9 voices. From left to right, Seokjin, Yoongi, a stranger, manager Sejin, Jimin, Jungkook, another stranger, Taehyung, and Hoseok. At first, everything sounded really far away and muffled, but now Namjoon could hear every one of their words loud and clear. He could swear that he was forgetting something important, but for now, he just let himself be. In the darkness, the voices of the people around him are the only noise. Namjoon can't feel anything and he can't open his eyes, but it isn't scary at all. Rather, it feels like a big heavy blanket had been placed on him. He feels at peace, and the words come out as confusing to him.

"So I gathered you all here because Detective Baek discovered something concerning, and it explains the severity of Namjoon's incident."

"What do you mean? A detective?" Jimin's voice meets his ears. "What's going on?"

"Why would we need a detective? They said he had an accident but-" Yoongi's tone betrays his anxiety. Namjoon wishes he could reassure him that whoever had an accident must be ok.

"Right-" the stranger finally speaks. "My name is Detective Baek, and I've been appointed to the case since last night. Due to your driver's disappearance at the scene, it raised some suspicion that something a little more sinister was at play. So I did my research and- long story short, we now have very strong reasons to believe that it wasn't an accident at all."

"What do you mean it wasn't an accident?" Taehyung asks. "You just said- you said you have evidence?"

"Yes, so after the driver's disappearance we decided to request-"

"Wait- I think he's waking up-"

Namjoon feels weird. The heavy blanket is crushing him and while he finds himself unable to panic, the fact that he can't breathe properly bothers him. He tries to grab whatever is pinning him down but it doesn't seem to work. His arms are somehow heavier than the blanket, and it feels like his body sinks down with every passing second. The first wave of nausea surprises him, and he groans. At least, he tries to. Namjoon isn't sure about what's real and what isn't, and he feels strangely disconnected from his body. When one of his eyelids finally slips open, the brightness feels like a needle to the brain. He gags. The blanket is surprisingly thin, but it still pins him down.

"Hey- Namjoon-ah, easy-"

'Namjoon-hyung!"

"Can you hear me, Mr. Kim?"

"Hyung? Are you ok? Is he in pain?"

"Why is he crying? Namjoon-ah? What's wrong?"

The leader hears all the voices at once, and it's too much. He hadn't even planned on opening his eyes, the dark place was comfortable. Yet, it seems that Namjoon has very little control over his body, and suddenly he was drifting towards the light and everything got so much louder. The nausea hits him again, and the sight of his blurry dongsaengs slowly appears before him. Namjoon is happy to see them, but the confusion overtakes that feeling and he quickly feels like he's suffocating. Why can't I move at all? Why am I not able to answer them? He can see the needle sticking from his hand, but it's simply numb. No pain, no pinch, no pull, he can't even feel the tape holding it in place. It makes him panic even more, and he chokes on a sob.

"He's hyperventilating- everybody out!"

Jungkook's POV.

He hates seeing the confusion in Namjoon's eyes. The sudden turn of events has him on edge, and as he is rushed outside the room alongside the other members, Jungkook can't help the shiver that runs down his spine. He swallows down his dread, and finds that his mouth is dry from all the stress. He can hear his hyungs asking a thousand questions and panicking around him, and he can hear Namjoon's heavy breathing on the other side of the door. The neon lights are a little blinding and the maknae's eyes burn with unshed tears. I just want to go home. He can't find the words to voice his discomfort, his overwhelmed state has rendered him speechless. When Jungkook tries to take a deep breath, it's shallow and shaky.
