"Jungkook-ah... Where did you get that?" Namjoon asks the youngest.

"I decided to pick it up on our way here. You guys didn't notice it, so I carried it with me, just in case." Jungkook gives the bat to Namjoon, seeing his hand asking for it.

"Hyung, what are you trying to do?" Jimin's voice was shaking, staring at the weapon with the leader. Jin, along with Hoseok, predicted ahead of the others, the two staying a good distance away from the door when Namjoon started walking towards it.

"What I have to, Jimin."

Namjoon mustered all his courage just to fully grab the doorknob, the bat in his right hand. Some of his members just watched him, not moving an inch, anxious of the possible surprises behind the large door.

V and Jungkook, however, stayed a few inches away from Namjoon, watching his movements intently.

"You two come here--" Jin's eyes grew large as the door was suddenly opened by the leader. Jin, Hoseok, and Jimin visibly flinched because of the sound it produced.

Namjoon stood frozen as his mind processed what he was seeing.

The unknown being slowly turned its head towards him, twitching. Taehyung was the first one to come to his senses and alarmed Namjoon.

"Hyung, kill it!" The younger male tapped Namjoon's shoulder rather violently as the distorted human walked towards them and away from its meal. The others watched in horror, not knowing what to do. Hoseok felt bile rise up from his stomach because of the gory sight.

Jungkook stood with a fighting stance beside Namjoon, glaring at the safety hazard. Just after Namjoon raised the bat, it ran towards him in full speed. His eyes widened and swung the bat hardly, the end meeting the unknown's face. It landed on the floor, not moving.

The boys stared at it intently, waiting for something else to happen. However, Yoongi was looking at its victim outside of the door. Eyes enlarged, he stepped closer until he could smell the iron-like stench that enveloped the room.

Much to his dismay, the victim was indeed someone they knew.

It was one of the stage staffs that assisted them since they got here.

"Holy shit..." He mumbles, covering his mouth, not able to take the smell anymore. "Yoongi, who's that?" Jin slowly walked towards dark-haired male, his arm on his mouth and nose.

"A staff." Hearing that, Namjoon's head shot up and rushed towards them, scrunching his nose because of the smell.

"Namjoon, we have to get out of here!" Hoseok was now shaking slightly because of the fear. Jimin, Taehyung, and Jungkook continued looking at the dead being, Taehyung occasionally kicking its ankles for good measures.

"Taehyung-ah, stop it." Jimin holds his wrists and pulls him away from the hostile.

"Let's go." Namjoon declared. The others only followed as a response, wanting to ignore the two dead figures now behind them as they continued their walk towards the exit.

"What was that thing?" Jimin questions, letting everyone hear it. Stopping his internal monologue with himself, Yoongi looked at Jimin with a blank expression. "You seriously can't tell what that was?" He responds with a question.

"I didn't want to assume..." The short male trails off, eyes on the floor.

Each members' anxiety grew as they neared the main exit of the building. Jin and Hoseok gulped multiple times when the huge door was on sight.

"Isn't it strange that we saw no humans on our way here?" Jungkook asks the man beside him. Taehyung only nodded as a reply. Neither of them didn't know where everyone was, and it was indeed really strange if they were the only humans in the building.

Just minutes ago, the dome was very full.

Is it possible that all of those people with them a while ago weren't normal now?

"Where are the others? Where's PD-nim? Where's our ARMY?" Jungkook's forehead wrinkles in so much worry. Again, they stopped in front of the exit, hesitating. Namjoon still held the bat firmly. This time, Yoongi was the one who tried listening to the other side of the door.

There were muffled screams outside, and the car alarms were going off. Haste footsteps can also be heard. Yoongi separated his ear from the door and sighed.

"I don't think we can survive out there without anything for defense." He comments. The boys looked at each other before scanning the area.

Taehyung immediately ran towards the fire extinguisher, but his gaze was directed towards the object beside the red container.

"He has sharp eyes, what the fuck." Yoongi stares at the axe now in Taehyung's grip. Taehyung walks back towards the group.

"We can pick some stray objects along the way. For the mean time, Taehyungie stays in front with me." Namjoon voiced out.

"Kookie doesn't need a weapon to protect himself." Everyone looked at Jimin, then at Jungkook.

"Hyung, what are you saying?" The maknae says, cocking an eyebrow at Jimin. "I know you know how to fight, Kook." The gray-haired male mentions.

"Kookie stay close." Hoseok stayed beside the youngest, his hand on Jungkook's shoulder. Jin, along with Yoongi, chuckled at his actions.

"Is everyone ready?" Namjoon positions his hand in front of the door. They all nodded, still contemplating.

Jin sucked in a breath when Namjoon pushed the door open.
