They all got up from their seats and headed towards the door. Gaeul checked their surroundings for any sign of the creature and it seemed safe.

"Okay, when we leave, we have to book it. Run straight to home. Don't stop for nothing," Gaeul told the girls.

They all nodded. As soon as Gaeul had opened the doors, everyone rushed out and ran, following the path home. They had never ran that fast before in their whole lives. They had found new skills that they never knew they had as they dodged any incoming obstacle in their path. The sky was grey and the atmosphere was creepy. People running on the streets, screaming. People hiding in their offices and stores just to avoid being in the open. The girls were reaching their home in record time. Though still far away, they ran and ran. No signs of the creatures were anywhere. As they got home, they quickly locked their doors and bordered up any open pathway leading into their houses.

Yujin and Wonyoung were together in their living room. Wonyoung was sitting down and Yujin was standing up while trying to call for help.

"Yujin, calling the police won't do anything. Those are some unknown creatures. How can a few police officers stop them from killing the entire planet?" Wonyoung asked.

"It's hopeless. We have to stay at home until this whole thing passes," Yujin said as she slowly sat next to Wonyoung.

Yujin turned and saw that Wonyoung was crying. She comforted her with a hug and hoped for safety.

Liz and Rei were in their room. Rei was pacing back and forth while thinking of a solution to the problem. Liz was shivering in fear on her bed. Rei stopped when she took a glance at Liz. Liz started to breathe heavily and was clenching her chest tightly while shivering. Rei quickly ran up to Liz and sat next to her. She tried to calm her down.

"Jiwon, let go of your chest," Rei said.

Liz stopped clenching her chest.

"Breathe with me. Breathe in, breathe out. It's okay. I'm here with you," Rei said as she hugged her.

Liz felt slightly more relaxed and leaned on Rei.

Gaeul and Leeseo were in their living room. Both standing up and trying to think of a way to survive. Gaeul was reading all her horror novels again to form a plan while Leeseo was thinking of how the day went to cause all that chaos.

"Nothing seemed different throughout the day, it was only after we decided to hang out together as a group," Leeseo said.

"We had always hung out as a group many times before and never had things such as an unknown creature attack. All these horror stories are based off serial killers and 'Silent Night' rip-off," Gaeul said as she threw one of the books on the floor.

"Did anything seem off, today?" Leeseo asked.

"No. Everything was fine. It was amazing, actually," Gaeul replied.

All the girls were quietly sitting at their houses, waiting for the horror to end.
