Elevator Game: Down 'N Deeper / bts x bp ff

floor (-08)

JIMIN hands glasses and a pitcher of water to Irene, Jieun, Jennie, Yoongi, Lisa, and Jungkook. All of them gladly drink as they all look at Chaeyoung's resting body.

"So Jimin-ssi, tell us what happened." Jieun gets straight to the point and Jimin gladly nods and tells what happened. As Jimin tells what just happened before they arrived, indeed they all felt chills by their spine.

But for Irene and Jieun. It's not just the chills. It felt like it was real, it's not a creepy feeling but real creepiness. Whilst for Lisa and Jungkook, the strange energy was just almost equally strong as the energy they felt back at Jin's apartment. It made both of them look at each other.

"Well then. I wanna go to Jin-ssi's apartment," Jieun announces and stands up. "Now."

Jimin can only nod as Jieun leaves, Irene bowing before following Jieun and left.

"Jisoo unnie was hella scared. She wants to go here but Jin didn't let her. So we just told her that we'll be going." Jennie said.

"What do you think happened, Jimin?" Yoongi asks the younger.

"I-I don't know hyung. I really don't have any idea. I'm just curious as you and Jennie, hyung."

"But was Chaeyoungie weird these days?" Lisa asks and Jimin shakes his head.

"Hmm no. She was just stressed and sick. But we still talk normally and we even laugh at times. She was okay."

The five of them can only sigh. And at Jimin's peripheral version, he noticed Chaeyoung who is now sitting up. He immediately stood up and went inside Chaeyoung's room.

"Jimin..." Chaeyoung calls out for Jimin and hugs him.

The four followed Jimin and just watched the two by the door. They all looked relieved seeing Chaeyoung fine and smiles. After a few seconds, Jimin and Chaeyoung break away from the hug.

"A-are you okay, noona?" Jungkook asks Chaeyoung, all of them were looking at Chaeyoung in worrisome.

Chaeyoung smiles as she replies, "Ye, I'm fine."

"Hold on, I'll get you some water," Jimin says as he exited the bedroom leaving the four with Chaeyoung.

"We were worried sick. Jisoo even almost fought with Jin oppa just to come here, but Jin oppa told her to stay in the penthouse." Jennie says.

Chaeyoung's weak smile was still evident in her face as she says, "I'm really fine. Tell unnie not to worry."

"But what really happened, Chaeyoungie?" Lisa asked.

Chaeyoung looks down, then looks at Lisa, "I-I don't really want to talk about it. I actually don't know what happened as well. But can we not talk about this for now?"

The way Chaeyoung asked it was so sweet and kind and Lisa can only smile and nod at her unnie. At least the more important thing is that she is okay.

"YOU TWO, can you stop fighting? You two just made up." Hoseok said as he and Namjoon look at Jisoo and Jin who were face to face and could probably have a war.

"Hey, you two. Don't be immature in these kinds of situations. Jisoo, I get that you are worried. We are all too. And Jin hyung, I get that you're worried for Jisoo. We're all just worried for each other and we barely have an idea of what's happening, but you can't just fight right now." Namjoon says.

Jin and Jisoo could only sigh heavily as the two of them sit down, but also had space in between. After a few minutes of waiting, they all heard the doorbell rang and Hoseok volunteers to get the door.

Hoseok opens the door and there were Jieun and Irene standing. "O-oh, Jieun, and Irene noona! C-come in!"

The two ladies gladly walk in as Hoseok closes the door behind them. The arrival of the two made Jin and Jisoo stand up. The moment Jieun and Irene entered the penthouse, they immediately felt it. And their facial expression says a lot.

"Why? Is something wrong?" Namjoon asks while Hoseok offers a glass of water but the two decline.

"You felt it too?" Irene asks Jieun but it feels like the question was for everyone. Jieun didn't answer though but just motioned Jin if she can walk around in which Jin allowed her.

Jieun starts walking around and follows where the strange feeling is stronger. Everyone just watched where she was going, but when she got near to Jin's bedroom they all now followed her. Jieun asks Jin if it was okay and Jin nods. And slowly, Jieun pushes the door open and there she felt it.

A sudden sight appeared in her mind. It was a series of sights. It feels like the sight was from another point of view, but what she was seeing from this sight is darkness and lonesome. Jieun immediately feels the pain of what she was seeing and this all made her weaken and fell down to the floor.

"Noona!"

"Jieun-ah!"

"Jieun-unnie!!"

"Hyung, help me carry her."

Indeed, Jin and Namjoon help Jieun up as Hoseok assists while Irene and Jisoo prepare the sofa for Jieun to lay on it. It took a few minutes for Jieun to recover from this before finally sitting up. Hoseok brings out a glass of water for Jieun, in which this time she gladly drinks from it.

Jieun sighs before starting to speak, "I will not beat around the bush. You all are feeling some strange feeling in here especially in Jin's bedroom, and Irene and I felt it too."

"T-then what is that 'strange feeling', 'strange energy' or whatever, Jieun unnie?" Jisoo starts to ask questions.

"Honestly I don't know," Jieun answers, "I have no idea what is this strange energy or where is it coming from. I don't know why we're all feeling this either. I can't really give you any details because I myself don't know much about it too. I may be an expert and as well as a singer, but I have no more knowledge of this. And if you're also going to ask if this has any relations to what just happened to Chaeyoung, I don't know as well."

Jieun's answer made everyone disappointed and upset since they didn't get to have a really good answer for them to understand what was happening.

It felt like they were in this big maze and they thought it's already the end, but it was actually just a dead-end and they have to go through more obstacles and paths than they thought.

"But there's one thing I am certain of," Jieun says and everyone waits for what she has to say next,

"The strange energy we're all feeling right now

is not evil."
