Monster (EXO x Reader)

EPISODE 15

And then you were sitting there again. In a big black van, surrounded by the armed men, while Baekhyun was put in a different one.
There were more than four men this time - Ten. Ten men sitting around you, only keeping their eyes on you. Or at least that's what you assumed. They wore helmets, so you couldn't actually see where they were looking. But last time, it didn't turn out so well for them, so this time, you assumed they'd be more observing.

The van drove for what felt like hours, and in all that time, you just sat there, wondering. Thinking. Thinking about what would happen. You came up with all possible bad things, and struggled to get those thoughts away.

How could you have been so stupid? Why did you go back? You were so close to getting away; getting away from all of it. But you went back. Back to all the trouble. Gosh... What had you put yourself into?

You jumped when the car stopped. You'd gotten so lost in your thoughts that you'd stoned for a moment. The doors swung open, and the men stormed out, two of them stopping in the doorway, waiting for you.

"Get up," they said, and you wanted to keep sitting there, just to annoy them, but you thought that that wouldn't be such a good idea.
You sighed as you got up and jumped out of the car. As soon as you were out, you looked around you, trying to find a way to escape. But the car hadn't stopped outside. You were in some kind of big garage - a dark one... A bit creepy, actually.
The two men in the doorway jumped out as well, closing the doors after them. And of course, they had to grab your arms again, making sure you wouldn't run anywhere; a bit annoying, but you kept it together.

In the corner of the big garage, there was a metal-door which the men took you through. On the other side of the door was a long hallway. Opposite the dark garage, this hallway was completely white, a little hospital-ish. The floor was so shiny and clean that it looked like you could skate on it. And the lamps hanging all the way down the hall lit so coldly, meaning that the light was more blue than red. It looked like some sort of creepy hospital; the only thing missing was a blinking lamp.

At the end of the hallway was another door that led into a big room that was just as white as the long hallway, though the lights were more warm here. There were a few desks with fancy computers and technology, and some chairs around a big table in the center of the room.

"Sit down," a man said, pointing at one of the chairs.
The two guys, who held you, let go, and you slowly walked over to sit down. Five of the men left the room, while the two guys went to guard the doors. You wondered where they were leading. Two of the last men remaining sat down at the computers, while the third sat down on a chair in front of you. He folded his hands on the table, and focused his eyes on you. He was probably about to start an interrogation... Just like Baekhyun had told you.
"So..." he began, as he nodded to one of the men at the computers, checking if he was noting the conversation. You didn't see if he nodded back.
"What is your name, young lady?" he asked.
"Why is that important?" you shot back. It probably wasn't a good idea, but you really didn't want to be there. First of all, you had to go home, even though you missed your plane. Or... You didn't miss it, but you were stupid enough not to go onboard. And second of all, EXO were in danger. And those men were the ones, who'd put them in that situation. Therefore, you didn't want to tell them anything. Not anything about EXO or you.
"Listen, I know that this may seem very confusing to you, but if you could just please cooperate, everything will be way easier," the man said, calmly.
You still didn't go under. You just sat there, completely stone-faced.
"Cooperate? With you? I don't think so," you shot again.
The man sighed.
"Listen, we know what you know. Therefore, we also know, that you probably think of this situation in a completely different way."
You stayed quiet this time.
"You think we're insane, right? That we're delusional and so unrighteous!" he said, standing up from his chair.
You followed him with your eyes as he walked over to sit on the table - right in front of you.
You were quite shocked. How did he know, what you knew about EXO? How did he know, what you were thinking?
"How do you see them?" he then asked.
"What...?" you let out, confused.
"Them. You obviously don't see them as we do, seeing your reaction and actions as we caught them."
You looked down.
"You know what they are... But still, you don't see the things- the dangers they're capable of."
You looked up again.
"Where are they? What have you done to them?!" you yelled, completely ignoring his words.
The man laughed and stood up.
"You know, it's funny to see how much you care for them..." he spoke with quite a scary voice.
"I ASKED YOU SOMETHING!" you shouted at him, and immediately stood up, making the chair fall over.
The man jumped a little in shock, but gathered himself. Then he turned to face the guy at the computer.
"We can't have her here for long. Her relatives will get suspicious," he said, ignoring your angry attempt on getting some answers.
"She mustn't know any of this. Make the pill ready," he then ordered, very well aware of you hearing everything, but not really caring.
"Wait, what? What pill?!" you asked, scared as hell.
The man turned to face you again, his expression very serious, very strict. He walked over, standing right in front of you.
"They've gotten under your skin, sweetie. It'll only bring you in serious danger if we don't do something about it now."
His creepy eyes stared into yours.
"The pill is a memory removal-pill. It'll make you forget everything about them and us. You will go home knowing that you've had a nice vacation in South Korea, but that you'd like to spend your vacation some other place next time. You'll go back to living a normal life."

What... WHAT?! Was he being serious?! No! No, no, no! You couldn't just forget about this! If you forgot about EXO, then you wouldn't be able to save them. To help them! You didn't know what these mens' intentions were towards EXO, but they sure weren't good! What were you going to do?!

"No! Please, I beg you! Don't do that to me! I can't just-"
"-Forget them? Do you even hear yourself? You actually CARE for them? They're Monsters! They have no humanity, no compassion – NOTHING! You may care about them, but do you really think they care about you?!"
His words hit you. Hard. Right in the heart. Making the tears wanting to get out. But you couldn't do that. Not in front him.

They DID care about you. They'd been more kind to you than any person had ever been to you. And they'd done everything in their heart, trying to get you out of all this mess. Trying to get you away from this. From the very start, they'd tried keeping you out of it. You were the one, who'd been so curious that you'd made them tell you everything. All of this – this situation... It wasn't their fault. It was yours. Therefore, YOU were the one who had to fix it. YOU were the one, who had to get THEM out of THIS.

"Take her to the cellar," the man shouted to the two men guarding the doors.
You looked around. You wanted to run, wanted to get out of here. But there was nowhere to go. It was over. You couldn't save them... You couldn't help them... You'd lost.
