"NO!" Namjoon shouted. The wire for the elevator snaps, sending Evan falling down. Ellie sees her brother body flowed straight up once that thing dropped.

"EVAN!!" She screamed from the top of her lungs. Aria said to not move as this rope could snap at anytime. Controlling her movements tears rolled down her cheeks, she didn't want to see what happens next for Evan. A huge cloud of dust covered the area... the elevator was in pieces.

Brawling her eyes out, her body went limp after realizing she couldn't do anything. The girls can see Yoongi from his area as he looks down at the ground "Oops. Wrong rope" he laughs. In anger, Aria yells at Yoongi, saying all kinds of words at him. He sits there and continues to laugh.

Out of nowhere someone comes from behind, knocks Minho out and points a gun at Yoongi. It was one of the officers, Yoongi looks around seeing where did he come from. Without his cameras, then he can't pinpoint where or when things will happen. "Drop your weapon now!!" He yelled.

Yoongi places the rifle down, then put his hands in the air. But he lifts the lever up that releasing the girls. Aria and Ellie screamed for their lives, Ellie glances down to see a bunch of people coming together. Namjoon orders his men to make a human cushion so they won't die on impact.

Not knowing if it will work, Ellie closed her eyes to find out. A few seconds later, she swings them opened to find them on people. They didn't land the way Namjoon expected but they didn't die which was good. Gunshots were heard from up top. Joon gestured those who wasn't crushed to help the officer on top.

Aria and Ellie were released from their bondage, Ellie turned to her friend and gave her a huge hug. They cried on each other shoulders. Wiping the tears, Namjoon fell to his knees "Are you okay?" He cried. He caressed her hair as stared at her.

"Yes, I'm okay?" Ellie rushed into her boyfriend's arms. Continue to cry, Aria joined them as it became a group hug. Yoongi and Minho were in custody, Evan has died at the scene, and the girls were taken to the hospital for treatment. To have to experience something like that could be harmful to your mental state.

____________

Days went passed, the girls were still in the hospital recovering from that event. Soojin and Jennie's mental health were unstable, Eunha will recover along with the other girl, Aria and Ellie mental health was suitable but have to go to a psychologist to coop for what happened. Out of all of them, Soojin and Jennie was worse it will be hard for them to get back into normal life.

As for Jimin and Jin, they will recover but has to go to a psychologist for treatment. Ellie sat in the bed, thinking about Evan "What am I going to do without you big bro?" she sighs as she fixes her sheets.

"It going to suck not having him here, but he will always be in your heart you know that" Aria said. Her smiles were reassuring as she tried to be positive during all of this. A knock came at the door, Tae strolled in with Jungkook.

"Hey, how are you feeling?" Tae said.

"Okay, I guess what are you doing here?" Ellie replies back. Tae and his boyfriend grabbed a chair next to the bed. They sat in the middle so they could see both of them. He mentioned that Yoongi will receive a death sentence for his crimes, which is a good thing. Then mentioned the reason he did all of this because his fiancé Kimberly Sunho, dumped him due to his aggressive nature.

States that he was unstable when they were alone, always wanted to do dangerous kinks while in bed, pressuring her to marry him, beating her physically and mentally. "One thing she did that you guys couldn't do was to fight back. Kim fought back and break free of his grip, due to that, it caused her a life. Heartbroken inside, Yoongi snapped luring girls in... stalking them endlessly. Kidnapping them, forcing them to do sexual acts and to marry him. Not having Kim by his side to boss or to be with anymore, he looked around for comfort. Seeing this quiet place as a fishing ground" Tae said.

They couldn't believe it, this happened because he couldn't have her. Six girls were tortured, raped, and beaten almost to death because of him. Multiple people died in his hands... because of his actions in his life. They couldn't believe it— not only that he planned every single detail as he was a step ahead. He didn't seem unstable as he looked normal around others.

Behind closed doors, he was something different. Getting off the topic, Tae mentioned that he will need a new leader for the Development & Design team as Jennie can't work in her condition and Evan is gone.

"Are you asking me?" Ellie said excitedly. He nodded his head saying yes. Then she realized that she isn't qualified for the job as she never worked on a game before or did anything like her brother. So Tae made a compromise as he will train her to do the work that Evan once had, if she accepts the job. One of the other worker will take the job until her training been completed.

Aria said that she better take the job as this will be a big opportunity. Thinking, she said yes with a smile. Tae smiled as well knowing that she will stay after what happened these past few days. Tae offers Aria a position but sadly she turned it down as she needs to get back to her work place. Plus to get out of the town for a while.

Tae understand but if she do need a job in case, then he will always open up something for her. Aria thanks him, the two went on their way. Things are lightening up just a little. But her heart was still heavy.

Aria turns to face Ellie "Do you think that things will go back to normal?"

"I hope so... I really hope so"
