jin ran as fast as he could, chaewon on his back, to the emergency room. the rain was pouring, and he couldn't see.

he stumbled onto the road, trying to recover chaewon's gs25 badge that had fallen off, calling 000 at the same time.

a car was heading towards them.

lights flashing, it swerved to avoid a puddle - only to rapidly approach jin and chaewon.

"emergency services speaking?"

"hi, i'm in hongdae road. my, uh, i mean someone's passed-" jin said quickly.

chaewon suddenly woke back up. she had enough time to see a car, and

jin and her being hit by it.

the lights were flashing. a crowd of spectators were emerging.

jin had positioned himself so that he would get the most shock from the car. chaewon had little more than a bruise on her arm thanks to him.

jin looked up at her, lying on the ground in a pool of blood that was rapidly getting bigger by the second.

"chaechae, you okay?" he croaked.

"jin, are YOU okay? shit shit shit. i'm so sorry." chaewon kept blabbering, tears running down her face, but jin had zoned out.

this was the only sacrifice he'd done for someone during his seventeen years of life. he'd usually let others take the pain.
