How many weeks had they been here? Jungkook was starting to lose count. He knew Jin had found some child's crayon and was trying to mark time as it went by; but they had no idea how much time had passed before they awoke in this hell. Time was losing meaning. They had begun to measure it as the waiting period between recovery and new pain brought to them by these monsters.

The only escape now wassleep.

~oooOooo~

A few days later, as the boys were laying in a mind-numbing silence, the steel door banged open and several men filed in, the leader of the group carrying a laptop.

"Good evening, gentlemen," the robotic voice said. "It seems that you will be our guests a little longer than planned."

The contempt that voice held was terrifying.

"Either you are not worth as much as we had originally assumed, or you have been replaced with the next new thing. Either way, your ransom deadline was two days ago and as of now, nothing has been sent to secure your release. I do, however, have a message from your C.E.O., if you care to listen?"

Namjoon looked at the others, his eyes wide, and his tears barely concealed as words failed him.

"Bang...PD-nim...sent us..." he tried.

32 days, then. They had been in hell for thirty-two days, which was two days longer than they should have been. Things must be bad.

The others looked at their leader, fear and concern taking them over.

"Bang PD-nim sent us a message," Namjoon said again. "They want us to listen."

Slowly nodding, the boys crawled out of their various holes and sat at the table, Yoongi even joining them to sit on the nearest bed while still keeping his distance.

Sitting the computer on the table where the seven of them could see, one of the guards turned it around to show a frozen frame of their C.E.O. looking much, much worse than the last time they had seen him. It made their hearts hurt.

Dimming the lights and pushing play, the guardstepped back almost reverently as the video began.

~oooOooo~

Looking at his hands andgathering his thoughts, the boys could tell through the screen that theirleader-nim was in a deep despair over their disappearance and they knew hiswords would be truthful. Bang PD-nim hadnever treated them as idols, but as people - human beings - young men that hecared for dearly. He had been very much like a father to them and onseveral occasions, one or all of the members had had in depth, emotionalconversations with the man.
