Meanwhile

"OH HELL NAH" The remaining animatronics had booked it after they watched Mingi basically get eaten.

"Come little children, I'll take thee away~" The thing sung, it's voice almost hypnotic.

The animatronics (including Jaemin with his guns) hid behind the stage, Hongjoong nowhere to be found.

"Into a land of enchantment~"

Jaemin shook his head quickly. "Bitch the only enchantment you want to bring us to is death" He whispered, still not alerting the thing.

"Come little children, the time's come to play, here in my garden of shadows~" The thing continued singing while searching for the others.

"Follow sweet children, I'll show thee the way, through all the pain and the sorrows" A voice cut in from somewhere, clearly alerting the thing in Chai.

"Weep not poor children, for life is this way, murdering beauty and passion~"

The thing hummed, still looking for the voice.

"Are you, are you, coming to the tree?" Seonghwa's eyes widened. "It's Hongjoong's voice!" He whispered, not moving an inch.

"They strung up a man, they say who murdered three"

"Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be, if we met at midnight in the hanging tree" The animatronics were worried, considering they haven't heard the thing in a while. They jumped when it hummed.

"Hush now dear children, it must be this way, to weary of life and deceptions" It sung, continuing it's search.

"Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be, if we met at midnight in the hanging tree"

"Into the calm and the quiet" Hongjoong cut in, his voice sounded father away, hopefully leading the thing away from the others.

"Are you, are you, coming to the tree?"

Jaemin brightened while Hongjoong and the thing continued to sing.

"It only moves when it's singing, the reason why we didn't hear it moving when Hongjoong first sung, was because she wasn't singing" He whispered, clearly attracting the other's attention. They nodded. "If we can get it to stop singing then it won't go after us"

Jaemin jumped when he heard a clatter.

"Hongjoong is in the vents, I think he heard what you said so hopefully he can get it to stop" San mentioned, peeking at where the thing was.

Hongjoong was worried to say the least. His sister had possessed Chai and wasn't leaving until he broke the connection. Crawling to a safer position in the vents, Hongjoong sat and listened.

Nothing.

Not a single sound.

Hongjoong counted to three.

And jumped.

Jumping from his spot in the vents, Hongjoong tackled Chai's body, tying it to the ground. He thought better of it and shoved the plastic crowbar into the thing's mouth.

"Well, nice to see you here"
