Taehyung wakes up to the feeling of being choked to his death, which is funny, because he could've sworn that he had just came back from death instead. He was surprised when he finds nothing but a soft bandage over his neck, the pain he felt made it seem as if there's something large and sharp pressing against it.

It took him some time to get over the fact that his neck has it's own personal devil that's trying to grow cancer. And when he's over it, Taehyung took it upon himself to scan his surroundings.

A smile almost ripped out on his face when he finds that he's currently rested on a five-star hospital room. He knows this hospital, it's the same hospital that his now-deceased mother used to be in. it's the same design for every room apparently, he still remembers the details; the light yellow wallpaper sewed some kind of a royal pattern, the peach-colored ceramic floors, and the old kingdom-styled bed. it brought in a nostalgic feeling Taehyung doesn't quite want, but he's not really in a place to complain now, is he?

Sure, it's a questionable fact how he could end up in such a place, but as long as it's not that horrible basement.... which, by the way, brings him to question himself :

Had he finally managed to get out? had he managed to get away from them? Away from those nightmares? Had he managed to save himself?

It seemed that for once, the world had decided to answer for him, by sending this pretty little nurse into the room. Taehyung doesn't take note of it, but he obviously did not fail to notice how the woman flaunts herself as she sauntered into the room, a metal tray in hand to hold what seemed to be his meds for the time.

"i see you're awake Kim Taehyung-ssi. How are you feeling?"

Taehyung was actually beyond shocked when he finds that he could barely speak. His voice that usually comes out effortlessly suddenly feels like a huge rock pushing it's way out. he decided not to make much of it though, settling with a curt nod and a stiff expression instead of anything else.

"i understand you couldn't really speak right now. I will inform your friends that you are awake."

"fr –iend...s?" when he finally forced the big lumpy rock out, it turns out to be even worse than expected. His voice was barely audible as it was raspy and if stranger was to walk upon him speaking, they might take him as a chromatic asthma sufferer.

He was almost thankful when the nurse didn't point out how horrible his voice sounded just then. "yes, they are waiting for you outside. Should i let them in?"

Why, oh, why does he get a bad feeling about this?

It seems that the nurse doesn't really care what he wanted, seeing that she went out of the room and invited the 'friends' in without his actual consent.

Taehyung doesn't quite recognize them, they come in an unsettling number –clue; six –but Taehyung doesn't recognize their barely-visible face as they all had a big sunglasses and a masker over their mouth. He wonders if it's appropriate to panic, but then decided against it. if the six men turns out to be not who he thought they were, how embarrassing would that be?

Calm down, Tae, calm down. They might not who you think they are. Deep breaths –ow, okay, fuck deep breaths, just breathe normally! Now, calm down, don't panic, they might not be –

But when he saw one male lowering his masker, revealing just a bit of his perfectly sculptured nose, Taehyung knew he had just given himself false hope. 

Of course. 


Whatever had made him think he could get away from them in the first place  anyway?
