You're In Danger (#WATTYS2019) [COMPLETED]

In The Darkness I Find Strength Chapter 22

With what little strength and clarity of thought Jungkook had he tried to think of how he was going to escape from this room.  He wasn't sure if he could overtake the Beast but he knew he had to try.  He had to do something to save himself and Jimin.

Jungkook took inventory of what he had in the room that he could use to disable, disarm or kill the Beast.  Jungkook may have been an average student in school but he was far above average in anything.  Anything he set his mind to he was often a success.  This had to be one of those times.

He looked at the mattress he was sleeping on and started to think about its components.  What could he take from it and use as a weapon? He realized he could take a spring out of the mattress and take a portion of it to use as something to stab at the Beast.  He looked at the blanket he had.  It wasn't very thick.  It was barely thicker than a sheet.  He could use that to strangle or suffocate the Beast.  He, also thought about what the Beast often had on his person that possibly he could get away from him.  The Beast often had the whip that he beat Jungkook with and he carried a long deer knife.  Jungkook thought if he could get any of those away from the Beast he could escape.  Next was how was he going to do this.  He was not aware that Seungri had given the Beast his orders.  When Jungkook found out about what was planned he would find the inner strength he would need to survive.

Then one thought stopped Jungkook cold.  The fucking zip-ties.  Anytime the Beast came into the room the first thing he did was zip-tie Jungkook's hands behind him.  It was rough and had left many cuts in his wrists that bled horribly.  Jungkook had to figure out what to do to avoid being zip-tied.

Jungkook would have to think on the fly and with his dehydrated and starved brain he would have to really focus.  Jungkook suddenly hears the door open and the Beast walks in and looks down at Jungkook disdainfully.  He's here for one thing only and that's to get rid of this brat.

Jungkook was bundled up under the blanket when the Beast goes to yank him up.  He has the zip-ties in one hand and he's using the other to pull Jungkook up by his left arm.  For a moment Jungkook becomes nothing but dead weight.

"Get up you bastard!" the Beast yells.

Jungkook goes limp for another moment.

"You fucking piece of shit get your sorry ass up!" he yells again.

Just as he yanks him up again with his left arm then Jungkook comes around with his right arm.  There is something long and shiny in it but the Beast doesn't get much time to register what's happening when Jungkook slams the broken spring into the Beast's neck.  Blood begins to spurt out.  Jungkook is now standing and he swings again just before the Beast realizes he's been stabbed in the neck and Jungkook catches him again shoving the spring farther into his neck.  More blood spurts this time hitting Jungkook on his arms and shirt.  Jungkook just keeps swinging the broken spring while the Beast drops the zip-ties to grab at his neck.  Then the Beast drops to the ground where Jungkook continues to stab at him with the spring.  Finally, out of breath he watches as the life runs out of the man that tortured him.

"Who's the fucking piece of shit now!?!" Jungkook spits at the dead body on the floor.

Jungkook recovers his senses and goes to the door of the room.  He stopped, caught his breath...

"Now remember Jungkook.  Remember the directions.  It's right out the door..." He starts to think to himself.  He doesn't remember ever encountering other people on their walks to Jimin but he knows to be cautious.

"14 steps then another right."  Jungkook says under his breath and he begins to walk forward.  He turns right.  "10 steps then to the left."  He turns left and sees a set of stairs and begins to go up the steps.  Once at the top he resumes counting again.  He comes to the final set of steps and finds himself in a hallway but no doors.  It doesn't make sense. He knows he can't always think straight but he knows he's taken his time to count correctly.  "Why isn't there a door here? I don't understand."
