Jimin closed his eyes, taking in deep breaths as Hoseok attached the last patch to his skin and covered the lid. He was exhausted since he couldn't sleep last night because of his nightmares. He knew that Yoongi was no better than him. Both of them struggling with nightmares of the creatures.
Jimin wondered if the others faced the same problems or if they had to deal with something else.
He heard soft whirring noises meaning that the machine was starting. Soon, his eyes felt droopy as darkness took over completely.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in the cave. It was dark as they were pretty inside the cave, however sunlight managed seep in from the mouth. He got up and realized that Yoongi wasn't still up yet. He picked up his sword in one hand and Yoongi's bow in the other hand.
Second later, Yoongi slowly opened his eyes and looked around.
"Morning" Jimin giggled, seeing the sleepy look on the elder's face.
Yoongi grunted, standing up. Jimin passed him his bow which he took, muttering a soft 'thank you'. When they walked to the mouth they realized that the shield was down, and the device was long gone.
"Don't worry. It only stays for a limited amount of time after that it disappear" Hoseok commented.
The moment they stepped out of the cave, the mechanical voice of the Gynoid was heard.
"Congratulations player, you have successfully completed the second stage. Now, you may proceed to the final stage. Your winning are being transferred to your inventory as we speak. You are requested to leave this place as soon as this message ends"
After that a ping sound echoed, marking the end of the message. And at once, Yoongi and Jimin started running.
"Where to?" Yoongi asked.
"Go straight. You'll find a lake. Cross it" Hoseok replied.
Yoongi and Jimin nodded, increasing. The younger almost stumbled down when a shuriken hit right in front of his left foot, missing only by few centimetres. Jimin groaned, his feet landing is weird way to dodge the shuriken.
Yoongi immediately took out his bow, ready to attack as soon as he saw the weapon dug to the ground. His eyes scanned the region around them like a hawk searching for its prey. The moment, his eyes picked up something out of the ordinary, he let of his arrow.
It hit it target and a girl fell off the tree. Yoongi knew that she wasn't alone.
"Let's leave before her teammates attack"
Jimin nodded, picking up his pace along with Yoongi. Soon enough they reached the lake. The lake was as flat as any mirror. It lay without a ripple in the silver-blue water as if time itself had been frozen. From the tall pines around the edge came not a sound, no movement of branches, no birds calling. And for a moment, Jimin forgot that he was in a Game.
