Sometime in the middle of the night I was awakened by the sound of a loud crash. It sounded as though something had just fallen over. I thought nothing of it and laid back down only to hear another loud noise. That's when I knew something was wrong. I looked over to wake up Namjoon but I soon realized he was missing. Frightened I got up and quietly ran over to the bathroom. I was searching for something anything to protect either myself or any of the boys. The closest things I could find to formidable weapons was a plunger and a hair dryer. I knew neither of these things would actually help me but I took the plunger just in case. About the only thing I could think it would do was I could stick it to someone's face or whack them in the head with it. It wasn't much but it's all I could come up with. I began to exit the room when I noticed something dotted along the floor. To closer inspection I realized it had that same metallic smell of blood that I had coming from me earlier. I realized someone could be hurt or worse....I couldn't finish the thought. I couldn't imagine one of these members losing their life at the hands of some criminal but it's seemed as though that could be a possibility. Now my heart was racing. The whole house was quite and all I heard was the sound of my heart nearly beating out of my chest. Once that second crash had sounded nothing else could be heard which made me worried as to what had caused it to crash and what the collateral damage was as a result. I tiptoed quietly to the door frame peeking outside and scanning the area for anyone or anything out of the ordinary. I saw nothing but then I looked down and noticed the trail of blood leading through the living room and down the hall that all the other members went to earlier to go to bed. I quietly made my way out of the room and hid behind the sofa for a bit making sure the coast was clear. I had my plunger gripped tightly in my hand to the point my knuckles where white as snow from the pressure I was using. I decided that although it might not be the smartest idea I needed to follow the trail in the case that it was the blood of a friend instead of a foe. If it was a friend I needed to find him and be sure he was ok and get him the help he needed. On the chance it was a foe, well I have my plunger and that's about it. I creeped out from behind the sofa and went behind the kitchen counter. When I turned the corner I saw that one of the things causing the crash was the glass case in the other corner of the room that held mementos and other things the group had collected as well as most of their awards. Upon closer inspections noticed some of the shattered glass had blood smeared about. I knew someone had to have been thrown into that glass case in either an attempt to neutralize the threat or an attempt to injure the prey. I continued along till I reached the hall. The blood seemed to have picked up slightly in the area and continued to as it went down the hall. I looked in the first room. I had no idea who or what I'd find in this room but I hoped and prayed it was a member or BTS alive and unharmed. I cracked open the door just enough so I could get a glimpse at the beds. To my horror both were empty with not a soul in sight. I went on to every other room and found the same thing. No one was here. On the last room I noticed something that was different than the others. There were bloody handprints and a think layer of blood coating the doorknob. I didn't want to open that door but I knew I had to because hopefully they might have all been inside hiding or something like that. Maybe the blood was from the intruder and he had smashed the glass case resulting in him cutting himself. Maybe then he tried to get inside this final room but couldn't so he had left. I attempted to think of the best possible situation to make out of these grim findings. I slowly creaked open the door and then it suddenly stopped moving. I could feel resistance on the other side of the door so I pushed it with all my might but it didn't budge. I decided I'd need to throw my whole body weight into the door to get it open. I took a couple steps back in order to gain some space to get momentum. I took a deep inhale. I set my sights on the door and took off. I leaped to meet the door. Right before my body hit the door I woke up in a panic. I was breathing frantically and my heart was beating just as fast as it was before. I realized it wasn't the middle of the night anymore and was severely confused. Was it all actually a nightmare or am I just going crazy? I understood what it was now. It's deja vu for what's about to happen. My dream was warning me. I realized the only way to find out if I was right was to see if Namjoon was still there in bed. I quickly whipped my head around and once again to my horror he was absent. This sent me into a whole other panic. I am actually about to live out the nightmare I just had. I got up and went and got my trusty plunger again and snuck again to the doorframe. I could hear footsteps coming my way so I decided I'd wait for the intruder to come into the room and then when he walks in I'll bang him on the head with this plunger and hopefully stun him. Then I can try to knock him out cold either with said plunger or worst case scenario my fists. The heavy footsteps got closer and closer and I was ready. The plunger was raised over my head ready to strike. I saw the shadow come into the room first but I didn't realize it was just the shadow so I swung with everything in me. I had used my full body force and when there wasn't another body there to actually hit I fell all the way to the floor. I hit my head smack into the floor in the process knocking me into a daze. Great so now I'm basically handing myself on a silver platter to this killer who will now have no trouble killing me because I can't fight back. That was my final thought until everything went black.
