*3rd person pov*
Youngjae was able to get them to the area close to the warehouse in 20 minutes due to traffic being clear this late at night. Youngjae messily parked the car on the side of the road and everyone instantly rushed out to start looking for Hoseok. They decided to stay together to avoid anyone else getting hurt even though Mark disagreed. They started at the front of the forest and spread out a little so that they could all look around but made sure they all had eyes on each other. They've been looking for 20 minutes and were starting to get frustrated that they couldn't find Hoseok. Mark decided to take matters into his own hands and slowly slipped away from the rest of the group because staying together was getting them nowhere. When no one noticed him, he quickly walked away from the group and began searching for Hoseok on his own. Not even 5 minutes later, he found a small lump on the ground. He walked over to it slowly and brought out his phone to turn on the flashlight. When he flashed the light on the lump on the ground, he gasped before rushing over to it. He finally found Hoseok. He dropped to his knees next to Hoseok's limp body and put his fingers to his neck. He let out a sigh of relief when he could feel a pulse and carefully put Hoseok on his lap. He looked around the area and noticed another dead body. He looked at it with blank eyes before focusing his attention back to Hoseok. Mark didn't notice he was crying until he saw a few of his tears land on Hoseok's face.

"I'm so sorry" Mark whispered out to Hoseok a few times before kissing him on his forehead softly.

He pocketed his and Hoseok's phone before standing up with Hoseok in his arms. He carried him bridal style while walking back over to where the rest of the boys were. He walked slowly so that he wouldn't accidentally jostle Hoseok around too much and cause him pain. After a few minutes, he made it back to the group but they were panicking because they noticed Mark disappeared. They didn't notice him so he stood there for a moment, just watching them.

"Where did Mark go?" Jackson asked in panic while whipping his head around.

"I don't know but we need to find him and Hoseok" JB said calmly while walking over and comforting his distressed boyfriend.

Mark managed to give a soft smile before walking toward the group. He wanted to go to the van but he would have to walk past everyone. When he started walking past the group, everyone stopped talking and looked down at Hoseok. They all had tears in their eyes but Jungkook was taking it harder than anyone else.

"C-can I hold him?" Jungkook stuttered out with small tears streaming down his face.

Mark instantly nodded before softly handing Hoseok over to Jungkook. Jungkook cradled Hoseok in his arms carefully and looked down at him. He looked so peaceful but his face said otherwise. Jungkook continued to cry silently as they walked back to the van in silence. Once they made it back to the van, they let Jungkook in first and then everyone filed in afterwards. Bangtan huddled around Jungkook so they can get a glimpse at their baby. They all felt like they had a part in this even though that wasn't the case at all. Got7 constantly looked back at Hoseok with sadness in their eyes. They just couldn't believe someone would do this to him. The car ride to the hospital was tense and silent. Jungkook continued to cry but he just couldn't stop. He wanted his baby to be better and he wanted to kill whoever did this to him, even though he doesn't know that he's already dead. They finally made it to the hospital after what seemed like forever and hopped out of the van. They walked into the hospital and was instantly met with murmurs coming from the people inside. Being a well known mafia group sometimes had it's perks.

"Instead of sitting there and talking, can one of you come fucking help us?" Taehyung growled out with his deep voice projecting in the big space.

A few nurses instantly came and took Hoseok gently out of Jungkook's arms and put him on a stretcher. The last glimpse they saw of Hoseok was of him laying limply on the stretcher before he was wheeled out of the waiting room area.

*Hoseok pov*
I could hear voices around me that sounded oddly familiar but the drowsiness that I felt wouldn't let me identify them. I cracked my eyes open only to be met with a bright light shining in my face.

"What the fuck..." I muttered out but I guess it wasn't quiet enough since the talking around me stopped.

When I didn't hear anymore talking, I sat up quickly with my eyes still closed.

"Hey, you don't need to sit up. Lay back down for me baby" a soft voice said to me.

I peeked my eyes open to be met with Jin smiling softly at me. I just nodded at him and sat back against my propped up pillows. My eyes were finally getting used to the light so I opened them up completely. I looked around the room at everyone and all of them had either puffy or red eyes. I pouted before looking down at my legs. My left foot was in a pastel orange cast and I softly giggled at the cute color. I looked over at Jin with soft eyes.

"Can I get a mirror please?" I asked softly while looking at him innocently.

He seemed to hesitate for a moment before walking over to the counter in the room. He grabbed the mirror before handing it over to me. I knew my face was probably messed up but I wanted to see how bad it was. I put the mirror up to my face and my eyes widened, well my eye widened. The whole right side of my face was swollen so much that my eye was forced shut and my cheek looked like I stuffed it with tons of cotton. There were a few scratches on my face but they weren't as noticeable as the right side of my face. My bottom lip quivered as I kept looking at myself before I looked over at Jin.

"I-I'm ugly" I whimpered out with a few tears running down my face.

Jin instantly took the mirror out of my hands and pulled me softly into a hug. I was mindful of my face before resting myself into his chest. I let out a few soft sobs while he just rubbed up and down my back softly.

"You're not ugly baby. You'll forever be beautiful to us. Don't ever forget that" Jin whispered in my ear softly making me nod my head into his chest.

I sat there for a few more moments before I sat up and wiped the tears from my eyes. I offered Jin a small smile before I leaned back into my pillows. The room was silent for a few minutes before I heard someone ask a question.

"Who did this to you baby?" Someone asked and I looked over to be met with Jimin.

I tilted my head before smiling softly.

"Dead" I answered simply while looking directly at him.

Jimin nodded before a satisfied smile came on his face.

"He's most likely still in the woods though since I couldn't move much" I said while putting my hand on my chin in thought.

"We'll take care of it baby. You just focus on getting better" Yoongi said while walking up and grabbing my hand gently.

I nodded with a smile and got comfortable in the pillows. I must've been extremely tired because soon enough, I found my eyes drooping. I looked at everyone one more time with a soft smile before allowing myself to go to sleep.
