"I won't change, always, yeh. I used to shout that, but why am I, according to my surroundings, countlessly being changed."

--

I gulped. Who knew it would become this. I looked at Hyunjin and back to Chan. Something wasn't right. Jeongin looked at him with the same expression I wore: fear. I got up and walked near the oldest, who was rubbing his head harshly. "Chan?" He looked up at me with no expression. "Are.. you feeling okay?"

"I don't know really... my head hurts though."

"Oh no..." Hyunjin muttered. Hearing that just confirmed that there was something up.

"We should probably head home and get you some medicine." I noted and everyone agreed. I helped Chan up and turned to Hyunjin. "Do you want to come?" Hyunjin visibly hesitated. "Come on." I gestured him to follow us. He didn't bother then and followed. As we made our way out, I swore I thought I saw three more people in another dimly lit room. "Uh, guys, you can keep going, I'm just making sure we got everything." Without a thought, everyone nodded and continued their way. I walked down the hall a bit more until I found the room. I looked in to see only two people laying on the ground, who seemed to be in pain as well. "Hello?" I asked in a soft tone. I heard multiple shuffling, indicating that there truly were people in there. I could see the figure of two people hiding behind some cardboard boxes. I walked in even more.

"What do you want?" One of them asked.

"I... Are you guys okay? I can help you if you need it." I offered.

"We're good, thanks."

"Changbin!" The other murmured, I could hear him slap him on the arm.

The other, who I guessed was Changbin, groaned. "Why do you want us anyway?"

"I heard you guys earlier during whatever that wreck was. You guys were yelling, and it sounded like my friend.. I think I could help you guys, seriously."

One of them gasped. I could see the other look at Changbin. "Changbin, come on.."

It took him a moment to think. "Ugh, fine." I left the room, waiting for them to reveal themselves near the door. The two got up, the sunlight shining bright on them. I took a look at them. Changbin seemed to have a longer face than the other and was more on the short side. He had a seemingly more intense face and a really powerful aura to him. The other, who I wasn't sure of the name yet, had a smaller face with cat-like features. He looked to be a little bit taller than me and got me confused on whether or not he wanted to punch me or comfort me. He also had more intense eyes than the other. After examining them, I signaled for them to follow me. They did as said and walked with me out to the deserted area once again. I vaguely remembered the way back, though the main thing helping me was the engraved footsteps. I was able to catch up with the rest, as they hadn't really gone far whatsoever. Changbin and Minho, which I learned on the way, talked about many things, like how they got there and what happened to them as well.

"Who's the new people?" Hyunjin asked.

"Well, we now have Changbin and Minho. I found them back in the building."

Jeongin gave out a small gasp. "Really? I thought no one else was in there?"

"You guys didn't hear the other screams earlier?" All three of them shook their head no. "Really?" I asked in disbelief.

"Nothing happened to you either, right?" Jeongin questioned, confused.

I shook my head no. It left me confused on how they didn't hear anyone else. Did something happen to me? I knew about me seeing the hospital, but... did anything more happen? I shook it off and continued following.
