Chapter Fifty

*Bora's POV*

"They've escaped miss," a worker told me, rigging some chains in the experiment lab that will be used soon. 4 hours to go.

"They?" I shot back. I knew Wonwoo had somehow gone, but who gives a shit. He can try and save her but it won't work.

"The tech boy miss, he helped him."

"Park Jimin," gritting my teeth I turned and headed to the office, my mother waiting tapping her heel impatiently.

"Well?" She shot, not letting me even set foot in the damn room before she started on me. Taking my ring off, o set it aside.

"4 hours my dear mother. It's all going to plan," smiling, I typed the last commands to Hyolyn's brain.

Self Destruction: 3 hours 56 minutes.

*S Coups POV*

"Guys it's almost 11pm, I think it's time to head back. We need sleep to prepare ourself for tomorrow, the comeback stage will go great," I let everyone heave their tired and mostly asleep bodies down the road to the dorm, Dino on my back already half asleep.

"Hey, yah," poking Dinos cheek he whined as I threw him gently on his bed, kicking his shoes off before throwing up his hood and falling asleep instantly.

That's strange. Normally I can hear Chewy whining and Hyo screaming profanities at the TV screen at this hour.

But nothing.

Granted I'm the only one awake, her own boyfriend passed out, face half on the bowl of cereal he attempted to eat. Pulling his head up I placed it on the table on his hoodie too, moving the cereal to the fridge for when he wakes up at 3am.

Seeing as I'm the only one awake, I headed upstairs to see if she was alright, because I knew for a fact she only missed her dramas if she was on the brink of death - her words not mine.

Knocking on the door, I waited.

"Hyolyn?" Knocking again, I heard the whine of Chewy. But no one there.

Pushing the door, it was locked. Great. Fantastic.

Before I was about to kick the door down, Wonwoo came sprinting up the stairs with a small dude following.

"You stink," holding my nose I held back.

"So do you, did you even shower? Jeez hyung," he rattled the door as I rolled my eyes, pointing out I had already tried that.

"I need to save her," he panted kicking the door. A bark responded.

Holding him back a second, I gave him a puzzled look.

"You said that earlier but DK said she was fine and he only left her a few hours ago. Trust us Wonwoo, she's going alright. Don't rub salt in her already gaping wound you created. She just got better," holding him back, the little dudes eyes opened wide.

"There's uh, blood... On the door knob," he pointed. "Jimin," he nodded as I looked at him confused again.

"Seungcheol," nodding back.
