A full 10 minutes passed before anyone said anything.

When the silence was broken, it was by Chaeyoung.

"Why'd you kill her?" The poor girl's voice shook, her voice laced with fear. Furious, Jihyo's killer grabbed on to Chaeyoung's neck.

Tightening his grip, the killer began to lift the short singer from the ground. "Don't talk without being spoken to, pipsqueak." Venom in his blood, he threw her against to wall, a crack and groan were heard. The members gasped while others screamed.

"Leave her alone." Tzuyu spoke boldly. The urge to run to her friend was much stronger than her will to live.

"Shall I kill you too?!" The person yelled while lunging at the rest of the group. Whimpers echoed in the room as they cowered away. "Chaeng, are you okay?" Dahyun asked from afar. The short girl nodded as she caressed her ankle. Tzuyu helping her to her feet. "I think it's broken Chaeng." The older of the two pouted and sat back against the wall.

"Why are you doing this?" The Japanese with a hime cut asked voice trembling but tone strong. A harsh chuckle left the killer's mouth. "You'll know soon enough, my love." The killer began to walk towards Momo who fearfully backed up against the wall.

"What do you want with me?" The dancer's eyes shook. "Nice seeing you again, Momo." The members looked at the scene with confused eyes. "You don't remember me?" He caressed the Japanese girl's face making chill run down her spine in the most terrifying way.

Still on the floor Chaeyoung struggled to get to her feet. "Leave her alone." Tzuyu gently pushed her back down to avoid putting weight on her broken ankle. The man groaned and turned towards the younger member. Chaeyoung crawled towards the door and pulled on the handle, the door was locked. She began banging on the door screaming for help.

The killer charged at the short girl but was tripped by Mina. He swung at the innocent girl but Jeongyeon jumped on his back digging her fingers in his eye sockets. He yelled before stumbling down to the floor. Chaeyoung then turned around and started slapping him over and over. Mina moves to Chaeyoung's old spot tried to pick the lock with her hairpin. With a burst of stored energy, the killer threw Jeongyeon off his back resulting in her hitting her head against the computer desk, and grabbed ahold of Chaeyoung's petite neck once again.

"Back away from the door and she lives." Mina looked up to see the slender but buff man towering over her small body. Slowly she backed away from the door. "Give me the pin." She obeyed and he stuffed the object in his pocket. "I should kill all of you after a stunt like that. Do you not understand the power I have over you all." Chaeyoung clawed at anything she could grab; as he got angrier his grip around her neck tightened. "Let me put you out your misery little one." He swiftly removed his hand from her neck and as she fell to the ground, gasping, he snapped her neck.

The sound rang throughout the members ears as they cried for another loss. Chaeyoung was a secret favorite of everyone in the group. Chaeyoung always have the best gifts, advice, hugs. She was the sunshine on a rainy day.

Mina ran to her friend's lifeless body and shook her. "No, Chaeng Chaeng. You're not dead. You're going to wake up and I'll finally get to tell you how much I love you." Tears streamed down her cheeks as she was pulled away from her dead crush's body by Dahyun.

"Sorry Minari. We'll all miss her." Mina looked up at the smirking man and charged at him. Knowing it was only going to end badly on Mina's part, Momo pulled the girl back. "No Mina. We can't do anything. We just have to listen and follow along with what he says and hope we get out of here alive." Mina broke down in the other Japanese girl's arms.

"So, who's next?"
