"Deception is the key to catching prey."

My heart stop.
Jimin's face in front of me faded.
There was another man there.
He looked in his late twenties- extremely handsome and tall, and masculine.
He wore a round rimmed hat, with a crisp black suit with black gloves.
But he had that same sinister look on his face as the snake.

I screamed loudly, trying to escape from the man's grip, but it was impossible.
No matter how hard I tried, it was like his hands were glued to me.

"Now calm down will you?"

"Fu*k no! Let me go!" I yelled, trying once again to escape.

This was such a bad idea.
I never should've come here with Jimin.
I should've just escaped when I saw the door. Who knows, maybe he escaped already, and I'm the only one left in here.

"I'm T.O.P," the man spoke with a silky voice full of authority.

I remained quiet, looking away, knowing that nothing could be done.

"Don't be rude and tell me your name," his voice was firm.

Turning around, I kneed him hard in the groin, causing him to let go and groan in pain.

I took this as my chance to run the hell away, but like magic, he appeared in front of me, causing me to stop dead in my tracks.
I took in a sharp breath.
Somebody grabbed my wrist from behind and dragged me back...though when I turned around...it was him.

"H-how'd you..."

"Don't ask me that."

I was tossed into the corner of the room like a doll.

"The hell do you want from me!?" I yelled.

"You trespassed. You pay for your punishment."

Silently, I cursed under my breath.

The man known as T.O.P took long striding steps towards me.
His whole aura screamed control.
His eyes bore into mine, staring into my soul. They reminded me of that snake's eyes.
I shivered.

"Your friend Jimin is with me. You wanna see him?"

He pulled me up, fixed his tie, then basically dragged me through the corridors of the room.
Everything seemed to fade; the plants became black thorny roses, the ceiling was covered in grey, dead vines, and the beautiful parrots transformed into humongous crows, all screeching at me.

A door that towered over us dissolved into a thick black smoke, and we walked right through it.

To my fear, I saw that same snake wrapped around a barely conscious Jimin.

"Now, now Callidus my dear, don't kill him, I've got a new human waiting for you in the cellar," T.O.P cooed.

The snake simply untangled itself from Jimin and slithered it's way towards the exit.
As it neared me, it hissed in my ear, brushing it's cool skin against my neck, then left.

"She seems to like you- for food," the man chuckled.

I shuddered, then, yanking my wrist out of his grip, I ran towards Jimin.

He stood there, watching us with a smirk plastered on his lips, which were pale and dry, and had been stitched with thread- not stitched closed...but there were loops of thread stitched onto his lower lips...green ones to be exact.

I held Jimin in my arms.

"Jimin! Jimin get up!" I whispered to him.

He whimpered, then slowly pulled open his lids.

"Mina...that creature- she hurt me..." he whimpered again, seeming like he was in great pain.

"Jimin, we have to get out of here, please try to stay strong," I still held him in my arms.

"Two lovers reunited as it seems," the man purred, he had a hint of excitement in his voice.

"If you two stay together, you'll only plan ways to escape...but then again, it's impossible to escape from a place like this," he chuckled.

Walking up to us, he picked us both up like we weighed nothing, then dragged us out, throwing us into a room and locking the door behind him.

I looked through the window...we were on the top floor of course, and over that, the ground was covered in thorns, giving us no chance of survival if we jumped out.

I ran to the door, and hissed as my hand made contact with the molten hot knob.
It glowed red.

I went to Jimin, dragging him up to the bed, and then taking a seat beside him.

I observed him. Wanting to kill him, wanting to throw him out of that damn window.
It's all his damn fault!

He curled up in a fetus position.
My eyes landed onto a huge mark on his neck.
It seems like something had bitten him.
The snake.
A green liquid slowly oozed out of the bite, then stopped.

I looked at his miserable state, then at the inescapable room and I burst out crying.

We'll never be able to escape from here.

I cried more and more, burying my head into my arms.

I was miserable.

After half an hour of still crying, I felt something warm wrap around me.

"Don't cry Mina, I'm here."

F*ck you!
You bastard, you were the one who dragged me into this damn situation in the first place!

I sobbed even louder.

"Get away from me you idiot! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been in this situation in the first place!"

"I'm sorry Mina, I'm sorry..."

"Sorry my ass."

He hugged me tightly.

"I thought you had left me. I was running with you, until something pulled me back...
T-the only thing I remember after that i-is getting my head beaten onto glass like a toy..." his voice got smaller and smaller as he spoke.
"Oh my god..." I trailed off as I remembered the banging...the body was him.
"I don't wanna go back Mina...I just want to get out...it hurt so much Mina. It hurt me so so badly. I just want to get out," he shook and cried onto my shoulder.

"We'll get out..." I said in a low voice.

Isn't that what everybody says?
Just to reassure themselves?
They never do really get out, do they?

Stop being so hopeful, you silly girl.

That voice, it repeated in my head. Digging into me, and swallowing my being whole.

"Get it out!" I screamed, holding onto my hair.

"Get it out!"

"Mina! What's wrong?!" Jimin came towards me, shaking me by the shoulders.

"Jimin! G-get it out please, I beg you to, please..." I cried into his chest as he hugged me.

"I'm sorry Mina, I- I don't know how to help..." he stuttered.

"Please..."

Like this, we both cried. Both miserable and pathetic.
