「creeping」- multifandom (DISCONTINUED)

kira

i sat in the middle of the hallway. the windows were tinted with a white hue, which made little light pass through. i made out the features around me with the help of the faint lights.

2-3, 2-4, 2-5

i stopped to peek into 2-5. i heard that there were sm rookies in this class. i looked through the class windows and saw a red-haired girl. i think her name was... joy. she was sitting in the middle of the classroom, sitting on a table, facing away from me. she was singing softly, but i couldn't make out the melody or the words.

white, long and giant hands emerged from the white floor. nine or ten of them. terrifying. they surrounded her back, where she couldn't see. they reached out for her and i shouted.

"j-joy!" i screamed but no voice came out of my mouth.

they gripped onto her and i saw pale veins sticking out of their hands. she gasped and choked. they lifted her off the desk and was dragged towards the ground. before her being was absorbed into the ground, she turned her head to stare at me, lifeless eyes staring into mine.

i felt my mouth drying up and my breathing getting uneven. she completely disappeared, merging into the ground with the hands. i ran to the door and tried to open it. it was locked. i stepped back, then charged into the door. the door was surprisingly loose and it fell down in an instant. i cautiously looked at the place where joy was pulled into. it was flat as ever.

a beige hand suddenly shot out from the ground. i stepped towards it. "h...help" i could hear a muffled voice from under the ground. i clapsed my hands onto the one that emerged from the ground, using all my force to pull it out. but an even greater force pulled me in.

i was stuck in the pitch black void and a face popped up in front of mine. i screamed. it was joy but in the form of a doll. she looked so real... but it was so obvious that this wasn't her. the doll grinned widely as her head started to rotate 360º. "you're just too gullible, huh?"

the face suddenly changed into mira's.

"friend, don't trust anything or anyone. i want you alive. so hang in there for me."

DAY 1

i woke up, gasping for air. i blinked and absorbed my surroundings. around me in the dark room were all collapsed bodies, and one who sat up against a wall with blood seeping out of his chest. i muffled my scream and hoped no one had heard it and woken up. after all, anyone can be after you.

i tiptoed over all the sleeping boys and girls and bent down slightly to look at the boy's face. his face was scrunched up and i could hear faint breathing. he's alive.

i was completely unsure what to do. do i help the poor guy? do i wake the rest up? do i run? what am i even supposed to do? my head was about to explode.

"S-SOONYOUNG!" i heard a scream from behind me. i jumped up and turned to my back only to be pushed roughly away by a guy.

the boy kept shaking soonyoung and started crying. he dug his bag for something and got out his phone. he quickly typed something on it and pressed the phone onto his ear, occasionally glancing nervously at me. he probably thought i did it.

he tapped his leg nervously on the floor and more people were starting to wake up. they were mostly checking on the boy or running out of the classroom frantically. after the boy, who i learnt was called jun, failed to call who i assume to be the ambulance for about 5 times, he turned around to glare at me, who was just on the floor.

with heavy breaths, he picked up my collar and shouted at me. "WHY DID YOU DO IT?!"

"i didn't do it." i replied, trying to not lose my shit.

"don't screw with me."

"there aren't any blood stains on my uniform, are there?"

he furrowed his eyebrows a bit, then released his grip. he crossed his arms then announced that the remaining few in the classroom would go treat soonyoung. "let's bring him to the infirmary."

the only ones remaining were 2 other girls and 3 boys, excluding soonyoung. the boys carried him up and the 3 of us girls just tagged behind. after we left, the classroom was completely empty. the girls were wheein and jihyo, the boys were dino, the8 and jun. and the injured soonyoung.

we walked up 2 floors since the elevator was out of power. we hardly saw anyone on our way up, probably because everyone was hiding. "by the way, did any of you... dream of anything?" i asked to break the tense silence except for jun's occasional muttering to soonyoung.

the 2 boys who seemed chinese shook their heads. dino seemed slightly uneasy. wheein nodded and jihyo denied. i just nodded in response. "what are you going to do to that person?" i asked, causing the rest to shoot looks at me.

wheein sighed. "i won't do anything to her. i'm not going to murder anyone."

i sighed nodded. "yea, same." but honestly, different thoughts were running through my mind. it was crazy to kill someone, but i was paranoid that something would happen to me.

we reached the infirmary at last, the boys seemingly tired from carrying soonyoung up two floors. i slid the door open and there was only a dark room with a bed and some equipment around. the light switch didn't work. i waited for everyone to go inside. once they were all inside, i looked around the corridor to see if anyone was there. no one was, but the corridor was exactly the same as the one in my dream. i contemplated on going to the classroom on the far left, but decided against it. i walked in the room and slid the door close behind me. the boys had laid soonyoung onto the white bed. "god, soonyoung, you weigh a hell lot." dino huffed.

"you did the least carrying," the8 rolled his eyes.

"hey, can you girls go find something to patch up his wound?" jun turned to us.

we went around through the cupboards to find medical supplies. i barely had any knowledge on the medical field, but lucky for us, jihyo had grown up watching her dad heal serious injuries or share stories about them with her. she quickly gathered some of the supplies and told us to get cloth and water.

wheein went to find a few cloths and i took a basin and turned the tap of the sink, expecting water to splash into it. nothing came out of the tap. "aw crap, the tap's not working."

"damnit, we really need the water to clean his wounds. seems like the entire power system is down. kira, can you go down and get someone's water bottle or something? from our bags?"

i uneasily agreed. going down alone in this situation was scary. i quickly ran out of the room. finding my way back was easy. just turn to the right, go down two floors, and proceed along the corridor and find the classroom that has the tag '1-2'. but curiosity made my decision on going to the classroom waver. what if i find joy?

then again, maybe nothing would happen if i follow what instructions were given hours ago. it would just make me a murderer. i checked my watch. it was 2.36pm, not even an hour after i woke up. if what the announcement said was true, i'd still have 4 and a half hours to do whatever was needed of me to survive.

i heard the door behind me slide open. "here's a blade. use it if you're in trouble. by the way, the classroom's on the right. be quick, jihyo says soonyoung won't survive much longer. he's lost too much blood." wheein passed me the scapel and whispered. she slid the door close again.

i slipped the scapel back into my pocket. i looked to my right, then to my left. if i find joy on my left, i could easily end it with the scapel. if i proceed onto left, soonyoung would be saved. i clenched my fist, giving these two options a thought.

alright, i've made my decision.
