TW: sexual assault

About a week or two later, Changbin found himself in a remarkably different state. The persistent pain that had accompanied him had gradually faded away, allowing him to move with greater ease. He cautiously took off the back brace, feeling a sense of relief as he tested his mobility.

While the brace was no longer a constant necessity, Changbin opted to keep it on most of the time, finding comfort in the additional support it provided. The familiar routine of walks in the park with Chan and Minho continued, but this time, the atmosphere was marked by a newfound lightness and a shared appreciation for the progress in Changbin's recovery.

The apartment, once a backdrop to uncertainty and secrets, began to transform into a space where the echoes of past challenges were gradually replaced by the resonance of healing. Changbin, no longer tethered by pain, navigated the days with a renewed sense of freedom.

As he reflected on the events of the past weeks, Changbin couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude for the unwavering support of Chan and Minho. The shared experiences, from the struggles of the underground fight club to the unexpected enjoyment of a night out, had woven a tapestry of resilience and friendship that transcended the shadows of the secretive world Changbin had once inhabited.

With the weight of past challenges lifting, Changbin found himself contemplating the idea of returning to the underground fight club. One day, as they gathered in the living room, he broached the topic with Chan and Minho.

"Hey, guys, what do you think about going back to the club? I'm feeling good, and it might be interesting to experience it again, together this time," Changbin suggested.

Chan and Minho exchanged glances, a silent acknowledgement of the shared experiences they had encountered thus far. After a brief pause, Chan nodded, "Sure, why not? It was unexpectedly entertaining last time."

Minho, echoing the sentiment, added, "Yeah, I'm up for it. Let's go watch a fight and see what this world has to offer."

The decision to return to the underground fight club marked a new chapter for the trio. With Changbin's recovery and the shared willingness to explore the unconventional, they embarked on a journey that blurred the lines between ordinary and extraordinary, turning the once-secretive world into a realm where friendship, resilience, and the thrill of the unknown converged. Little did they know that the choices they made in the weeks to come would shape the contours of their lives in ways they couldn't yet anticipate.

Inside the club, the atmosphere buzzed with the aftermath of a recent fight. Taking advantage of the break, Chan and Minho decided to grab drinks for the trio. As they approached the bar, the clamour of the crowd drew their attention.

A circular formation had spontaneously emerged where they and Changbin had been just moments ago. Struggling to break through the crowd, Chan and Minho finally managed to reach the bar, grabbing the drinks. However, their return journey was met with unexpected challenges as the crowd had grown thicker.

Pushing through, they eventually broke through the human barrier, only to be met with a shocking scene. The crowd was now surrounding Changbin and the guy who had kicked him in the back. The two were entangled in an unorganized, chaotic brawl sprawled on the floor, a stark departure from the structured fights that usually took place in the ring.

Realizing the gravity of the situation, Chan and Minho stood frozen in shock, their initial intention to intervene overridden by the unpredictability of the moment. The improvised fight had escalated into a messy confrontation, and the trio found themselves caught in a situation that transcended the controlled chaos of the organized fights they were accustomed to. The decision to return to the underground world had taken an unexpected turn, plunging them into the unpredictable currents of an unregulated brawl.
