"LET ME GO! LET ME GOOO!!" Gahyeon pushed Handong aside. Her head was in a mess. The final moment of her sister was still playing on repeat in her head.

Handong looked at her surrounding. They were in the middle of a forest. She just teleported to the first place popped in her head, some forest that she saw when they were chasing the lead on The Seers' a while back.

She checked what she had on herself. A phone, a purse and the SD cards. She checked her phone, no reception. She cursed under her breath. But at least the battery is still a lot. She put it on airplane mode to save the battery.

Gahyeon was still in frantic, wailing like a madman. She understood what Gahyeon is going through, but they need to move forward. Or else. She grabbed Gahyeon up but Gahyeon put up a struggle, thrashing around.

"Gahyeon, come on. We need to move. Come on!" Handong tried to calm her down. But Gahyeon's thrashing grew wilder.

"LET GO OF ME!!! WE NEED TO SAVE THEM!! MY UNNIE!!!" Gahyeon screamed, hitting Handong while trying to break free from her. Handong lost her temper and slapped Gahyeon across her face.

"GET A GRIP!! THERE'S NOTHING WE CAN DO FOR THEM!" Handong screamed at Gahyeon. But Gahyeon slapped her back, shocking Handong.

"WHAT FORWARD?! HOW CAN YOU GIVE UP ON THEM?! THAT'S MY SISTER OVER THERE! YOU SAID THE WOUNDS HEAL! HOW DARE YOU KILLING THEM OFF LIKE THAT!" Gahyeon screamed at her. Handong held Gahyeon in her arms, holding her tight.

"We're not immortals... They're gone... I'm sorry..." Handong looked away from Gahyeon to hide her tears.

She might not seen it, but she could hear Dami's bloodcurdling scream as she burnt to her death. She could see Siyeon and SuA thrashing in pain, being burnt alive by the white phosphorus. JiU's melting face and Yoohyeon burning legs. Her family, dead in a blink of an eye. Burnt alive.

But she had to survive. She had to keep Gahyeon alive. Keep herself alive. For their sakes. And she has to be strong, for both of their sakes. She wiped away her tears and sniffed. She looked back at Gahyeon.

"Look. We need to get out of here. We need to find someplace safe and think about our next move." Handong looked at Gahyeon.

"But... Them..." Gahyeon wiped her tears, trying her best to muffle her cry.

"Hey, look at me. There's only two of us now. We have to pull ourselves together. We'll find who did this. And when we do..." Handong left her sentence hanging.

Gahyeon just nodded, and hugged Handong tightly, crying in her chest. She hushed Gahyeon down, rubbing her back. Once Gahyeon has calmed down, they both made their way out of the forest.

"Fiu~~ Talk about overkill. Damn, Zwei! Where did you get that?" Drei whistled as he looked at the burnt corpses. The bodies were burnt beyond recognition.

"Shucks! Poor girls burnt to crisps! I mean, look at this!" Eins broke Dami's finger like it was a piece of charcoal.

"Better safe than sorry. Check if any one of these girls is Gahyeon." Zwei gave his order.

"No way. They were burnt beyond identification. Oh, look! E.P. Carrillo Encore Majestic! These bitches got styles!!" Eins found Siyeon's cigar box. He took it and found the cigars are undamaged.

"Mine now." He said as he stomped on Dami's head, crushing it.

"No sign of escapes. I think we got them all." Drei reported.

"The SD cards?" Zwei asked.

"Doesn't seems to be here." Drei replied. Zwei sighed and scratched his chin.
