After a week, the famous Nakamoto Yuta was still branded in Rita's mind. The whole idea of the man scared her but also peaked her curiosity. She was afraid yet desperate to know more about him.
She layed on her bed while petting Izumi gently. She stared at the ceiling trying to give her mind peace in order to fall asleep but her mind always wandered back to him. Releasing a frustrated sigh, she decided to go to the kitchen and get a snack. When she entered the room her eyes wandered to the clock. Her eyes widened as she saw it was nearly 12am.
"I wonder why Sicheng isn't home yet then..." she shrugged off the thought thinking that he just had some extra things to do. She decided to just have some cereal as she couldn't find anything good to eat. As she ate however, her eyes were locked on this particular drawer. The same drawer she saw when she first arrived at the apartment. The one that held all the information the police station had on Yuta.
Her curiosity got the best of her and she decided to look at the file one more time to see if she could discover anything more about the mass murderer. She flicked through the file but there wasn't anything more than what she already knew. The singer was confused. How could an ordinary guy turn into a killer? He was set out to be a prosecutor just like her brother so why did he give it up? She knew there was so much more to Yuta than what people were telling her but apparently the only person who really knew about everything was Yuat himself. It wasn't like she could just go up to the man and ask him though with out probably dying.
Ever since she encountered him in the restroom at the restaurant and heard about who he was she began to feel less afraid. She started to think of him differently making the intense fear that she once felt almost disappear. Almost.
As she flicked through the file one more time to see if she missed out any pages her phone rang. She ran towards her bedroom to see that Johnny was ringing her. "Hello?"
"Hey Rita, uhm Sicheng asked me to just ring and ask if you could come down to the station?" She tilted her head to side confused.
"What? Why? It's past 12."
"Uh i'm not sure he just asked me to ring you and tell you to come here and wait for him or something like that..." He coughed awkwardly as he finished his sentence. Something about Johnny's behaviour seemed off to Rita. She had known Johnny for a long time though so she trusted him.
"Okay? I guess i'll leave now then, see you in a bit" They said their farewells and the singer grabbed her shoes and left to find her brother.
time skip:)
When she arrived at the station she saw many officers outside almost in a panic. She raised her eyebrow to demonstrate her confusion. She looked around for her brother when her eyes landed on Johnny talking to another officer pointing him in a certain direction. "Johnny!" Hearing his name he turned to face the girl and gestured her over to him.
"Whats going on?" She questioned as she continued to look around for her brother. "We think Yuta might have been spotted, we need as many people there to try and catch him if he's there. I think WinWin is coming back soon, just go inside and wait by his desk i'll tell him where you are."
She looked up at the tall man even more confused. "WinWin?"
"Oh it's a nickname that we have for him here just go inside and wait before it gets more hectic out here!" He shouted the last few words whilst he ran off to go help another officer. She walked through the glass double doors towards the area where her brothers desk was. Although the outside was full chaos, the inside was almost peaceful. Every now and then some people would run by but it was mainly quiet.

Sicheng was busy helping an officer load some weapons into a car when Taeyong came over to help. "I got to say, it's a bit weird that you told your sister to come here at this time especially in the state we're in right now" Sichengs head whipped up to look him in the eyes as the words left the mans mouth.
"What are you talking? I didn't tell Rita to come here i told her to stay at the apartment" worry filled his voice as he wondered why she decided to come out at this time with a murderer on the loose.
"You're serious? That's weird. I'll sort all this out you go find her." Taeyong grabbed the weapon out of his hands as Sicheng ran off to find his sister.
"Johnny! Hey, have you seen Rita? Taeyong told me he saw her here." Johnny turned around to look the smaller boy in the eye. He could see the worry in his eyes yet he told him:
"No, I haven't seen her."

Rita eventually found her self at Sichengs desk and sat her self down on his chair. The room itself was quite dark so she turned on the desk lamp to her surroundings a little better. She decided to examine the objects that he decided to place. She saw pictures of him and his friends at the stations, some old pictures with people from their old school aswell as pictures of the two of them together. She has a small smile on her face as she looked further.
The smile was replaced with a small frown however when she saw a year book picture of Sichengs first year at the police school. All of his class mates at the time were present. She took note of the many familiar faces however she noticed that one face had a sticker over it. Curious, she peeled the sticker back to see a face she didn't expect.
It was Yuta. But it wasn't like pictures she had seen before he was smiling. His smile was wide as he stood in between her brother and Johnny. They all had the same smile and their arms were around each others shoulders. They were friends? she thought. She wondered why her brother or any one else never mentioned that they were friends. Yes they said he was friends with everyone but they never said he was friends with him. She made a mental note to ask her brother about it when he returned and began to examine Yuta more.
One thing she took from him in the image was that he was happy. His smile here was nothing like the smirk she saw in the restroom. He wasn't trying to intimidate everyone here. He was genuinely happy. Seeing this allowed the small smile to find it self back onto the singers face.
However once again that smile faded. Her went wide and shot up from the picture as the air around her went cold. She paced the picture back on the desk and looked around to see if anyone else was in the room with her. She could see no one but the air around her remained the same. She then heard a laugh that brought back all the fear she thought had disappeared.
She didn't even bother to loom around for the source. She leapt out of the chair and made a run to the door. But she didn't make it very far. An arm quickly rapped around her waist and one went to her her mouth to muffle her screams. She thrashed around in his arms before hearing that voice.
"I told you... soon you'll see"
Everything went black.
