Seonghwa sat on the ground in the same spot as he had been in for a week. He felt almost completely numb and couldn't see at all out of his damaged eye. Lately his captors have been playing mind tricks on him saying how no one cared enough that he was gone and even scaring him with lies as if they captured Wooyoung too.

He was so tired. The constant pain had become almost numb, his horrid hunger overthrowing it. He was so hungry and so thirsty.

He just wanted to die.

The alpha that covered him in vodka days ago walked in. Seonghwa had figured out he's the captain and the one in charge here. Seonghwa stared, emotionless and stayed still, "You've been awfully quiet for someone who used to scream so loud." The captain grabbed Seonghwa's chin. "Won't you scream in pain?" The captain pressed his foot against Seonghwa's slowly healing stab wound and applied heavy pressure, forcing Seonghwa to feel the pain and let out yells of agony. The pressure seemed to tear the scabbing flesh apart and opened it, summoning blood to pour from it. His tired body jerked in pain, desperately trying to use his shaky hands to lift his foot. But the truth was, he had no more fight left in him. He couldn't fight, he didn't want to fight.

He just wanted to die.

The captain removed his foot and left Seonghwa as a panting mess, fighting back tears. "Don't worry Park Seonghwa, soon enough you'll be in custody and we'll be rich. I will miss hurting you though." Seonghwa sucked in a breath and pressed his back against the wall, trying to back away. He wanted to talk back and laugh in his face, but he couldn't. He couldn't do anything. Why make an effort to live if this was truly where he was going to die. The captain growled and pounced forward, grabbing Seonghwa by the throat, "Come on. Say something, fight back and beg me not to hurt you." Seonghwa gripped at his wrists and squeezed his eyes tightly. As his head got increasingly lighter, he felt absolutely no pain. Seonghwa almost welcomed this, relishing in a numb body away from death yet so close to it.

Seonghwa could feel himself slipping away, slowly losing the fight that was for his life. Just as quick the momentary relief came, it left. The captain released his hold on his neck causing Seonghwa to cough and gasp for air. He hunched over and clawed at his neck the ache of his body returning. "You think I'd let you go that easily? Right before we're about to leave?" Seonghwa looked up to the man, his throat hurting so bad. "In a few days you'll be back in the brig." Seonghwa managed to summon a growl, "Hell is hot for an ugly bastard like you." The alpha laughed loudly and approached Seonghwa, "You must have a death wish." Seonghwa couldn't help but flinch as the captain's fist raised into the air, throwing punches at Seonghwa over and over again. Seonghwa just wanted this to stop. He didn't want to fight through it even though he knew he should. He should survive for Hongjoong, Yunho, and Jongho. But he just couldn't anymore. He couldn't.

After getting punched over and over the captain finally stopped, leaving Seonghwa a dazed bloody mess. He leaned over and spit out blood. His vision was blurry and he could see stars. "Learn to shut your mouth and maybe you won't get as hurt." The alpha kicked him in the stomach, causing Seonghwa to curl in on himself. But instead of crying or screaming he just laughed.

He laughed so hard he threw his head back, his teeth reddened with blood. The horrid alpha before him just stared in confusion as he witnessed park Seonghwa slowly spiral into madness. "You're fucking crazy." Seonghwa laughed even more, the chains rattling with each movement. He felt so lost. What was the point in anything anymore? At the beginning of his captive week he would focus on Hongjoong so he could live on and fight, but at a point where Hongjoong wasn't anywhere and wasn't saving him... truly what was the point.

The captain left the room, leaving Seonghwa in darkness and alone. He fell to his side, still laughing. His body was a bloodied and bruised mess. He still couldn't see out of his damaged eye and gods he didn't desire to know what that injury looked like. Seonghwa suspected he lost his mental grasp on everything from the endless pain and torture. A few days back the pirates even teased him that they found Wooyoung and murdered him. A corpse of a man with black hair was even dropped in front of Seonghwa. All he could do was stare in horror and hyperventilate, but it was revealed to be a stranger.
