The air seems a lot thicker through the cotton bag. My own hot breath bounces back onto my skin and I stop myself from panicking by breathing in and out slowly.

"Hurry up and take it off." Mutters a familiar voice somewhere in the background and moments later my eyesight is flooded with light and everything is a bit of a blur. As my eyes refocus I'm hit with immense confusion.

"Taehyung?"

"Ah yes, angel, it's me." His handsome face sits millimetres away from mine, his warm breath fanning my face, "I didn't know you're eyes turned gold when they adjust to the light, damn, that's kind of hot."

I feel my cheeks flare at his comment.

He shuffles backwards and I see the rest of the team are standing around the room. Jimin and Hoseok are smiling welcomingly at me, Namjoon, Yoongi and Jin look a little pissed, Jungkook looks nervous and Taehyung, well, he just looks gorgeous. The room is extremely dark, only lit by two tiny windows, it seems like we're in a brick hut or something.

"What even happened, I'm so confused?" I ask, looking down to realise my feet are tied, but my hands aren't bound. "Also why aren't my hands tied? I could just undo the ties on my feet and leave?"

"Taehyung, you fucking idiot." Yoongi hisses, and instead of binding my hands Taehyung unties my feet and smiles cutely at me.

"She's not gonna run away anyways," he says, walking away and pushing a chair forward to face me. He looks back at me smirking, "Are you, angel?"

"Oh my god, stop calling her that," mutters Jimin, an uncomfortable grimace forming on his face.

"I'll call her what I want," Taehyung growls; shocking me a little at his aggression. He goes and stands in the corner of the room watching me with hungry eyes. Namjoon takes the seat in front of me and looks at me for a moment before speaking.

"We're going to ask you some questions that will decide if you're going to come back to Eden with us. Mr. G trusts us as his team and if we believe you are needed for us to be successful then he will let you stay in Phuture, no matter how much he hates you." Namjoon says, his voice full of control, I'll keep that in mind. "I know you don't want to but you're going to have to open up to us now, or else you'll be going back to the camp. Answer honestly."

I nod.

"I'm serious, Ari, you have to let us in."

I nod. I've got to trust them, right? I can't bare to watch any more suffering, I need this opportunity to stop it.

"Come on, I want to see your eyes change."

I feel so uncomfortable, but I have to do this, right? I slowly ease up.

"There we go." I look down, this is humiliating, with white eyes I look like a some type of nightmarish demon. "I spoke to a professional, he told me what the colours mean. When your eyes turn darker, you're lying, when your eyes are pale, you're honest. I guess people are right in saying eyes are the window to the soul."

"Get on with it." I huff.

"First question. How did you escape the camp?"

"Someone already escaped and set off the alarm, so my friend helped me out of the cell. Everyone ran in different directions but I saw the clearing away from the guards and ran to it. I escaped through a hole in the barbed wire fence, broke into the out building, stole the keys for the car outside and drove here."

He nods his head, satisfied with the answer. "Why did you think it was okay to escape and there wouldn't be consequences?"

"Of course I knew there would be consequences but I wanted to be free."
