Chapter 39- -click-

It was 5 am in the morning , not the regular time when Shuhua wakes up. She usually sets an alarm for 8, keeps turning it off till 9 and then lazes up to 10.
But yesterday there'd been a camera in their tv. She could not just not think about it. What kinda twisted shit was the hotel pulling.
She looked over at Miyeon. Fast asleep. They'd gone exploring the city the whole day, of course she'd be knocked out.
But Shuhua just couldn't sleep.

What was that?
Shuhua's brown hair was tied up in a bun. She was wearing decent enough clothes. The noise had come from outside. She slipped into her slippers. If there was one more noise she'd go out and check.

-clink-

The sound of... a chain?
She got off the bed and headed towards the door separating the male and female portions.

Chan's ears were perked up as he sat upright on the bed. Two sleep deprived gazes met. They shot knowing glances at each other.

They both advanced towards the front door.
Shuhua stopped Chan.
"Put a shirt on." She whispered.
"Oof."
............

The hallway was dark. They couldn't hear anything, but Chan led the way with his flashlight. Where were they even going?

-clink-

The two stopped dead in their tracks.

-clink-

They followed the sound.
Not a word was spoken between the two, yet both had a pretty clear idea that something shady was going on.

"This better lead to something.", Chan thought.

The sound stopped again. This time a more muffled sound came. A gross, wet sound, almost like when a dog licks you out of affection.

Was an animal trapped somewhere? In chains heavy enough to be this loud?

"This hotel is shady as hell-" whispered Shuhua. Chan shot her a look which shut her up. Chan was getting a sick feeling in his stomach, like his gut was warning him of something.

It sounded like a hungry dog was inside when Chan and Shuhua reached the part of the hotel where the sound was the loudest yet.

Shuhua turned the handle. The door slightly parted. All sound ceased within.

Slowly Chan opened the door. The white light from his flashlight flooded into the room, right on the figure inside.

Chan gaped in horror at the rain thin, pale white "boy" that sat in workers uniform on the floor, licking up chopped vegetables off the floor.

But most of all Chan gasped at the familiar face.

"Jeongin?!", the flashlight almost lost its balance. Chan's hand was shaking.

"He's the room service guy from before!" Shuhua realised.

"Jeongin... Who did this to you?!"

Jeongin could barely keep his eyes open in the lights. His face had sunk in like a corpse. His skeleton looked it was trying to make its way out of his body, his mouth was open like a dog. His eyes showed no sign of recognition of Chan.

Shuhua watched in shock as Chan swooped in and took the boy by his lips, tilting their faces till they fit like puzzle pieces.

Chan noticed the boy's neck and wrists, both tied up to some unknown dark part of the room. He had to open them, somehow, anyhow, or he'd never forgive himself.

"Shu.." he started.

"Here" Shuhua handed him two hairpins.

Jeongin whimpered now suddenly. His eyes darted towards Chan filled with remembrance and life.
But the minute he tried to speak, he could only huff while his neck pressed against the chain.

"What kind of fucking sicko.." Chan said, twisting the hairpin inside the neck chain "
.. could ever put a person through this?"

Once the chains were enough, Jeongin was raised into a fit of intense coughing and almost fell onto Chan who held him tight on the shoulders.

"Aaaaaahh....." Jeongin croaked out.
"They're all overthe-the Island Chan.. they're sll out for you all and Jisung and Minho.."
"Who are they?" Chan almost cried out, seeing Jeongin's condition.
"I don't know.. but they control evrything here.."

"And right now, there coming for you all "
