Opening his eyes, Seonghwa found himself in a whole new, unknown place. It was dark, but there was a little fire burning about three meters away from him with silhouettes of four men around it. His eyes took a moment to adjust, his vision was a bit blurry so he couldn't see well at first.

Becoming more conscious, he felt his arms being held up above his head. He tried to lower them, but he couldn't. He looked up, seeing metal handcuffs around his wrists which were held up to the ceiling with a chain. His legs were free, however, no longer tied together unlike before he was knocked out. Speaking off, his head hurt from the hit against the floor, he was sure there was a wound now and that it had bled. It had been such a harsh hit that it was impossible if it didn't cause a wound.

 Another thing he noticed was how the cloth was no longer in his mouth, there was nothing in his mouth. Not even tape on his lips. He was able to speak and scream if he wanted to.

Seonghwa looked around, trying to figure out where he was. He realized he was indeed in a cave, like where the men had said they would take him. They were out of the city and there would probably be no one to hear anything. Which is why he was able to scream, it wouldn't matter if he did. 

While looking around, he noticed a cage, one that was the size of a dog cage. Oh, he hoped he wouldn't be forced into it, he'd rather be chained like this than be forced into that small thing.

One of the men noticed Seonghwa having regained consciousness and seeing where he was looking, he let out a chuckle. It was the same man that had called Seonghwa 'a beauty' and cut his cheek.

"That's for you sweetheart, to keep you locked up when we're away."

Sweetheart..?

The man stood up and came over to Seonghwa, taking out a knife. The white haired man's eyes widened, his eyes filled with the same fear he had felt previously.

"Please... Don't do this please.."

"Give me a reason not to."

Seonghwa didn't know what to say to that. How do you convince someone to not hurt you? A criminal too, a sadistic criminal even. It was impossible.

"That's what I thought."

The man used the knife to cut open Seonghwa's shirt, letting the tip touch and scratch the man's skin a bit. The bound man shut his eyes, thinking the man would cut into him. While it was a relief he didn't get cut, his shirt being ripped isn't exactly much better.

The man didn't stop there though, he also cut open the sleeves and so full took off Seonghwa's shirt, leaving him shirtless. The cave was rather cold and with nothing to keep his upper body warm, the bound man soon started shivering. 

"Awe, is it too cold for you?" The man mocked with a smirk as one of the other men came over, holding a cigarette.  "How about we warm you up a little then?"

Knowing exactly what the two were planning, Seonghwa quickly shook his head.

"Please don't"

He couldn't do anything besides beg, beg for them to not hurt him. But they seemed to get joy out of it.

The man with the cigarette went to stand behind the bound man, whose heart was beating rapidly. He attempted to move away, but he couldn't thanks to him being chained and the man grabbing his slim waist to keep him in place. 

Just a second later, Seonghwa felt burning on his back for several seconds. It was a small cigarette, but the burning hurt a lot and it caused him to let out a scream. It wasn't very loud, but it echoed through the cave.
