And once again, your life was like any other. Sleep, eat, work and repeat. An endless cycle. You sat in a cafe, not too far from your work place. You had just finished work, and came to eat some ice cream that you've been craving all day.

"And a Green Tea ice cream for you." The waitress said as she placed it down. You swung your head over and smiled.

"Thanks a bunch." You replied, and she smiled and walked away. You ate the ice cream so fast that you got the occasional brain freeze. But you loved it all the more. After your little treat, you decided to head back home. On your way to your regular route, you noticed a grand crowd had grown, covering the whole street. As you raised an eyebrow, you ran over to see what the commotion was about.

"Excuse me sir. What exactly happened here?" You asked a random man. He turned towards you and pointed with his thumb towards the main attraction.

"Thats what happened." He said. You slowly lowered your eyes over towards the incident and felt yourself wanting to puke. There were dozens of dead people lying on the ground with blood spilling everywhere. You didn't want to look. At all. But you did.

"Who could have done this?" You muttered. You heard the man sigh.

"Probably BTS." He answered. You looked up at him.

"Who?" You asked, totally confused. You didn't know who they were. The man looked at you as if he was the one who should be confused.

"A band of 7 teenage boys who go around and kill certain people." The man said and closed his eyes while muttering a prayer. You looked at him.

"Are you a priest sir?" You asked. He smiled and nodded.

"Yes. I am a priest over at that church over there. I live 10 blocks down from it actually." He answered. You smiled. The police told everyone to leave and use another route to get home and so, we all did. You turned around and recalled what the man had just told you.

"Why would they do this?" You wondered out loud. The only way you could get home was by going through the abandoned part of town. The part of town where nobody lived there. Abandoned buildings and flickering street lights at night. Thank god it was still as clear as day at the moment, or you wouldn't have gone through there.
You walked through the abandoned district and heard your footsteps echo as if walking through a grand hall.

"This is quite scary." You said and looked around. So many torn down buildings. It looked as if it was a playing map for Call of Duty or something. Just then, as you passed by an alley way, you saw it. A young boy had instantly killed two men. You froze. What if he noticed you? What would happen then? You held your breath. But the boy turned around and gasped as he saw you. "I, uh, didn't see anything." You tried to reason with him. His face turned stern. "Oh god." You thought. He came up to you. You turned to run away, but he grabbed you and placed something on your mouth, making you sleep instantly.

You slowly began to wake up. You almost opened your eyes, but stopped as you heard the voices of 7 different boys.

"Aish! Hyung! Whats gunna happen now?! She saw me kill the two people that we were ordered to kill!" A boy's voice said.

"I don't even know, Jungkook ah. It was a good call that you used the rag on her to have her lose conciousness. But she's gunna wake up soon." Another voice said.

"But Namjoon ah, what if she is awake right at this moment?" A voice said. There was a silence. Your heart was pounding. Praying that they don't notice you are actually awake. But who are these people?

"Naw. She isn't awake, Jin hyung. Look! She is sleeping like a doll! Right Taehyung ah!" A happy voice shouted. The other didn't reply for one second. But then said,

"Shut up Hoseok." A deep voice mumbled.

"Yah! I'm your hyung!" The once happy voice said.

"Guys, guys. Shush or else she'll wake up." Another voice said in a low tone.

"Jimin is right you guys." A voice complemented and there was a loud clap.

"Ohh~ Suga hyung actually agreed with me for once!" His voice cooed.

"Whatever." The other guy said. You kept debating whether you should wake up now, or keep silent and listen in on conversations. You didn't know where you were. And you didn't know who you were with. You weighed your options at the moment. You really didn't want to keep quiet. You wanted answers to your questions. So on that note, you gathered all of your courage and fluttered open your eyes.

When you opened your eyes. You stared at the ceiling. Then you slowly got up and looked around you. There were 7 different boys and they were all blindingly beautiful, it hurt to look at them. They all stood there with expressions that couldn't be read. But one thing is for sure. They were holding their breath. So to break the silence, you said the first question that came to mind.

"Where am i?" You whispered. They all looked at eachother. Then at a guy with brown hair. He nodded and they all gathered their breath. The guy with brown hair came over to you.

"You are currently in our hideout." He said. Well that was quite vague.

"Uhm...hideout?" You asked. He laughed and knelt down.

"Don't worry about it. I'm Jin by the way. What is your name?" He asked and placed his chin on his palms. You blinked a few times and looked out at the other boys. They stood there expressionless. Like robots without feelings. You pondered on telling him your name. But since he did tell you his, you might as well.

"Yoo Jiae." You answered. He smiled cutely and patted your head.

"Cute name." He raised himself up and walked over to the other boys. You yourself stood up and faced them. You looked around and saw the face of the boy who had made you fall unconcious.

"You are!" You said and pointed at him. You quickly covered your mouth, remembering he was skilled with a knife. He smiled and laughed.

"I won't hurt you! It's okay. I'm Jungkook. Sorry if i scared you back there." He sheepishly scratched the back of his neck. He wasn't as mean as you thought he was. Another boy with red hair smiled at you.

"I'm Hoseok. But most people call me J-Hope. Nice to meet you!" He said. Another one that was about your height but somewhat taller than you introduced himself.

"Hey. I'm Jimin. Its nice to meet you, we don't see girls very often." He said and bit his lip. Another red head smacked him on the head.

"Ignore Jimin. I'm Yoongi. Suga if you want. A pleasure. Hope our maknae didn't freak you out too much." Suga looked over at Jungkook and Jungkook's mouth hung open. You restricted yourself from laughing.

"I'm Namjoon. Rapmon. And the quiet one over there is Taehyung. V." He said and pointed to a guy with light hair. He didn't say anything.

"Uhm. I still have one question." You said and raised a finger. They all waited. "Who are you?" You asked. They all looked at eachother and laughed. Knowing that they all just introduced themselves to you. But they knew what you really wanted.

"BTS." Jin said. Your eyes widened. Their faces turned from happy to a stern, cold look. BTS. The people that were apparently responsible for killing the dozens of men on the street last night. You looked at them all. How could these gentle and beautiful looking boys kill without hesitation?

You wondered for a long, long time. Then it hit you. You were in their hideout. You knew where they were located. You knew who they were. And you knew for a fact that you are surrounded. You have been captured. A victim in their den.
