"Did they left?" a white tiger peeks from a wooden cupboard near the bathroom door. "Yes, Taehyung. You can come out now," Namjoon replies. Everyone sighs before all of them eye the bathroom door where Youngmi is already climbing down the window, not even wasting any time, making sure not to leave any blood spill. "Can you believe it? I had a misunderstanding with my mate so she decided to run away. What kind of fuck up lie is that?" Namjoon, the gray wolf mocks. "He's desperate. What did you expect?" Seokjin, the Samoyed husky rolls his eyes. In the meantime, Taehyung, the white tiger knocks on the bathroom door. "Miss?" he calls. Soon enough, everyone stands in front of the door. Sniffing around, a beige rabbit says "You masked her scent too much. Now, even I cannot sniff her out." Smiling sheepishly, Taehyung apologizes "Sorry." He then proceeds to open the door slightly to check for the girl supposedly hiding there. Everyone is confused for a while and then the silver Scottish Fold cat pushes the door wider. All eyes on the open window that Youngmi forgets to close. "She escapes!" the cat exclaims and runs towards the window before sticking his head outside the window.

"She's really smart. She managed to make this place look normal as if she wasn't here in the first place. It's a pity her scent blew it up," Namjoon says.

"Namjoon, this is not the time for you to be amazed. We have to look for her," Seokjin says and with that everybody scatters outside, following Youngmi's scent. However, they each start to break into smaller groups because Youngmi's scent is spreading everywhere in the forest.

"This girl is really smart. How she can think of spreading her scent is beyond me," Namjoon says while panting. "Namjoon, find the girl, compliment her later," a red panda hybrid says, obviously annoyed.

They run and run and run until dusk that Namjoon decides enough is enough.

He first calls Seokjin "Hey, we should stop. It's dusk."

"But, the girl-"

"We can look again tomorrow. Everybody should go back and rest. I'll call Jimin. You and Yoongi hyung should head back."

"Fine, fine."

The call is ended with a heavy sigh from Seokjin.

"Is it a wise option? I'm pretty sure she is injured, though," the red panda says.

"I don't know Hoseok. But right now you need to take care of ourselves. Hello, Jimin," Namjoon says. "What is it hyung?" Jimin, the Scottish Fold cat says tiredly.

"Let's head back. This is useless."

"What?! No hyung. We-" Jimin is interrupted by someone else.

"Wait hyung. You guys can head back while we keep on searching. We are following blood trails and her scent is getting stronger and stronger. Please let us look for her. She needs our help whether she likes it or not."

"Blood trails?!"

"Yes, Jungkook is leading us right now since he is the most sensitive to smell. We'll reach her sooner or later hyung." Jimin answers.

"Are you guys sure? What if she puts up a fight?"

"We'll... We'll think of something."

"You have that, right?"

"... Yes, hyung. But I-"

"Use it if necessary Jimin. As Taehyung said, she needs our help. Be careful, guys."

"Yes hyung. Jungkook spots another blood trails again. We gotta go. Bye, hyung."

The call is ended and Namjoon simply sighs. "Maybe we can join them?" Hoseok, the red panda asks. "Leave everything to them Hoseok. We still need to guard our home. Let's go." Hoseok's ears drop and his tail sways lightly, indicating that he is sad. Namjoon looks at him and pets his head, smiling fondly.

"Come quickly Jimin! She's near," Taehyung exclaims, following the beige rabbit hybrid who focuses on sniffing and running. "Sorry, sorry," Jimin says, trying his very best to avoid the big roots on the ground. "Hey, wait up. Stop running," suddenly the beige rabbit speaks up. "Hyung, she's here. Hurry up," he says again. "We're coming, Jungkook!" Taehyung says, grabs Jimin by his wrist, and drags him carefully. Jimin's heart rate quickens, hoping that the girl would not put up much of a fight because he really does not want to use that. They both then see the girl who is clutching her bleeding abdomen and Jungkook, the beige rabbit who is trying to block every path the girl wants to go. Jungkook looks at his hyung with sad eyes, biting down his lower lips while his ears are lying back against his head but are not touching and his fluffy round tail is twitching. "Get away from me!" Youngmi says, almost growling. She probably takes the habit of Dongmin back when she lived with him. She eyes each hybrid warily while planning an escape route. 'I can't get caught now. I had reached this far,' she thoughts while trying to blink away the increasing black dots. "Relax, we just want to help," Jimin says, putting his hands in the air, ears turn back, tails slowly moving back and forth. Smirking, Youngmi shoots him a glare "Yeah right!" This time, a proper growl emits from her. "You are bleeding. Let us help you, please," Taehyung pleads. It is pretty obvious to the hybrids that Youngmi is fighting to stay conscious. Her breathing looks painful, she looks malnourished, skinny, and covered with dirt, and based on the blood they saw, she lost too much of them, causing her to look so pale. "Get the fuck away," Youngmi growls lowly when she notices that Jungkook is closing in his distance with her.

"We just want to help. Please believe us," he says, hands in the air, trying to look trustworthy.

"And I don't want your help!"

"But-"

"I said no!"

Jungkook looks at Taehyung and then at Jimin who is gulping heavily. Taehyung looks at Jimin and nods his head with a questioning face. Jimin's hands tremble because he really doesn't want to do this but it's getting dark and they have no other choice since she is not cooperating. Jimin nods and he reaches for something from his back pocket. Youngmi widens her eyes and before she can react, she is lifted from the ground in a blink of an eye and she meets eye with Taehyung who gives her an apologetic face. "No, let go of me! You can't do this!" She keeps thrashing around, squirming and wriggling to get away. She even starts hitting and kicking but she is losing energy so it does not affect him much but he still has a hard time holding her still. Jungkook then lends a hand by gripping her wrists and holds them together while he withstands her kicking. "Hyung, now!" he said, looking at Jimin. Youngmi looks over her shoulder and she can see that Jimin is holding a syringe, containing colourless liquid. He looks at her with teary eyes, ears against his head, and keeps on muttering "Sorry, sorry. I am really sorry." Her eyes widen and thus she tries her very best to get out of the boys' firm grip. "No, let go of me. Don't do this, please. I just want to go home. Please, don't do this. I beg you to let me go. Please," tears fall from her eyes like a waterfall causing Taehyung and Jungkook to look away, convincing themselves that this is for her own good. "I am really sorry. Terribly sorry. But this is for your own good," Jimin says as he lifts Youngmi's sleeve and though hesitantly, injects her with the liquid. "No, please. I beg you," Youngmi says, her body is trembling so bad while tears continuously fall onto her cheeks. She soon stays still, eyes closed and her cheeks are stained with tears. Taehyung fixes his hold so as not to press onto the wounds. Jungkook lets go of his grip and looks at her apologetically before approaching a crying Jimin and hugs him. "We did it for her own good. It's not your fault," he comforts. Jimin simply nods but his body is still trembling. Jungkook holds his hand and says "Let's go home. I bet the other hyung are worried." They soon left in silence, while Jimin keeps looking over his shoulder to check on Youngmi several times.
