Escape Artist

"Hey, could ya turn up the volume on the tv for us?"

The bartender lazily looks at the men, before grunting and pointing the remote to the yellowed TV suspended in the corner above the bar.

'-At approximately 3AM yesterday morning, the Daegu Police Department discovered a third mutilated corpse. This one different from the other two found, but the same M.O. from what we are gathering. The police chief is declaring a state of emergency, urging the community to stay home, citing concerns of the return of a serial murderer known to the public as "The Artist".'

The shorter of the three men places his pool stick down, the other stares at the screen motionless hanging on to every word from the reporter's lips.

Taehyung polishes off his bourbon, placing the glass on the bar. He places on hand on his hip, the other covering both of his eyes as he tried to steady his breathing. Feeling his heart beat at a million miles per hour Taehyung muttered:

"He's back. He's killing again."
