There Was Nothing You Could Do

-𝑇𝑎𝑒ℎ𝑦𝑢𝑛𝑔-

Jungkook trips and Namjoon turns around, dropping the walkie.

"JUNGKOOK!" He runs to help him up and ducks as the thing swings at him.

"Hyung!" I fiddle with the fire extinguisher, "I don't know how to..." the fire extinguisher suddenly starts spraying at the ceiling.

The creature swings at Jungkook and rips the bottom of his sweatshirt.

"Taehyung! Aim!" Yoongi shouts from behind me.

Okay....you got this Tae...it's not that difficult.

I aim at the creature and spray the fire extinguisher.

It backs away, screaming.

Namjoon pulls Jungkook to his feet and runs past me, toward Yoongi.

I stop spraying the fire extinguisher.

Namjoon grabs the walkie and then my shoulder.

He shoves me down the stairs and then shuts the door behind him.

"Let's go." He walks past me and down the stairs.

The rest of us follow him.

Halfway down we meet Jin and Hoseok.

"You're all okay? Thank God." Jin sighs.

~~~~~~~

We reach the entrance and I stand at the door.

"Are we all ready?" Jin asks.

"We should be." Namjoon walls to my side, "Just be alert." He puts his hand on the door and opens it.

Jin and Jungkook follow him.

Yoongi stops at my side with Hoseok on his back.

Hoseok puts his hand on my shoulder, "We got this. We'll get through it."

Yoongi opens the door.

There is a faint growl behind me and I follow them.

Once the light of the building is no longer visible I begin to feel as if we are being watched.

I stick close to Yoongi and Hoseok as we follow Namjoon.

Namjoon stops ahead of us and puts his hand up in a fist, with Jin beside him.

"What the fuck does that me-"

Jin spins around with a finger to his lips and stares at me with daggers in his eyes.

"It means don't talk," Yoongi whispers to me.

"Why would we need to be quiet?" I whisper back.

"Maybe they're following us."

"We'll be fine though, we know how to fight th-"

"DO YOU KNOW HOW TO SHUT THE FUCK UP!!" Namjoon spins around and looks at me with anger in his eyes, which sends chills down my spine.

"I...I'm sorry Hyung..." I say quietly.

We start walking again.

I feel a hand rub my back, "He's just really anxious Tae..." Hobi's voice is soft and comforting.

I can just barely hear Jin whisper to Namjoon, "What the hell was that?"

Namjoon sighs, "I don't know. I just feel like we're not alone. I'm worried for everyone."

I see the silhouette of a boy run in the woods to my right.

I stop walking and look for the boy.

The silhouette looks familiar and I blurt out his name, "Jimin!"

I run into the woods toward Jimin.

"Tae! Tae, come back!" Yoongi and Hobi watch as I run from the group.

I see Jimin suddenly turn into one of the shadow creatures.

I stumble back as I try and get back to the group.

"Namjoon! They followed us!" I run toward the group, dropping the fire extinguisher that I had in my hands.

Hoseok readies his fire extinguisher and we start running.

"There's a river! We've gotta lose the fire extinguishers!"Namjoon shouts back to the group.

Everyone drops their fire extinguishers and they jump into the river.

Yoongi gets Hoseok off his back and pushes him in, jumping after him.

I'm in the back of the group and I almost fall into the river as the shadow swipes at my legs, causing me to lose my balance.

I gain my balance and jump into the river.

It's surprisingly deep and my feet can't touch the ground, even Namjoon is swimming. The current is weak and doesn't push me at all.

I start following the others across the river.

It's about the width of a four-lane highway.

Something wraps around my left leg as I'm halfway across.

Namjoon, who is standing on the shore, looks at me in confusion as he squeezes the water out of his shirt, "Tae come on! We don't have time to mess around!"

Whatever is around my leg digs something like teeth into my skin and a yelp escapes my lips.

"Taehyung?!" Yoongi turns around as he climbs onto the shore.

I try wiggling out of its grasp but it just tightens its grip.

I start panicking as the teeth dig deeper into my skin, and I scream again.

I breathe in to shout something but I'm pulled under the water, my lungs filling with water.

I start struggling under the grasp of the object, creature? I really don't know at this point.

I can't hold my breath anymore and begin inhaling water.

My lungs feel as if they might explode.

I feel a pair of arms wrap around my waist, but they can't pull me from the creature.

My vision starts to fade and I inhale water again.

Everything goes black.

I'm sorry for the slow update! I just couldn't figure out how this chapter would play out.

So not that anyone cares but I was trying to write this chapter and I had my BTS playlist on shuffle and then You Never Walk Alone and Spring Day decided to play and I felt attacked, I was trying to write horror and then these emotional songs decide to come say hello.

Anyway I hope you enjoyed this and will stay tuned to read the rest! Have a lovely day <3
