I gave Bum a weak smile 'what a nice name'
My eyes were still puffy from having that mental breakdown just now, I still had no clue on what's going on, and my anxiety is already taking over. Bum still has not answered my question from earlier, about where and how I got here, there's got to be a good reason why he still hasn't answered.
While I was trying to get my mind straight, I heard a door creak open, revealing a bright light, making Bum jump and slowly scurry away. The sound of heavy footsteps were heard, getting louder and louder till they suddenly stopped, standing right next to me. I was too busy looking down, too afraid to see who brought me to this terrible fate.
It was so quiet. I could feel the figure above me, watching me. But I was too much of a coward to look up. The dark figure then decided to break the silence. "What's your name?"
"(Y-y/n)" I began to shake uncontrollably, trying my best not to stutter while still looking blankly at the hard ground.
I wanted to ask so many questions, but I didn't want to accidentally say the wrong thing. Who knows what'll happen to me.
"Turn around" those words left goosebumps down my spine, as much as I didn't want to look at the figure, I knew something terrible would happen if I didn't obey. So, I followed the figures orders, I slowly turned my head, revealing a tall muscular man, it was hard to make out his facial features because of the bad lighting down here. But by what I saw, he was very good looking, he had dirty blond hair, and dead gray eyes.
The man then bent down at my eye level, staring at me almost like he was trying to read my mind. "W-where am I...?" As hard as it was to speak up, It was probably a bad idea to start the conversation, but I needed a better understanding of my situation.
Instead of responding, the man just tilted his head, and gave me a look signaling that I should know the answer. But how the hell am I supposed to know if this werido was the one who knocked me out.
He must've understood my confusion just by my face. He started to shake his head back and forth. "That's not important"
What...?
The man leaned closer to me, making me a bit more nervous. It was almost like my heart was about to beat right out of my chest.
Should I run???
I started to slowly back up, but the man kept coming closer with an evil grin filling up his face. My body decided to start shaking, I've never been this nervous in my life.
What is he going to do to me???
I quickly stood up, not knowing what else to do and decided to dash up the stairs. Once I get out of this crazy hell hole, I'm going to call the police to help that Bum guy out.
"Not so fast~" I felt a strong grip on my wrist, after not even making it half way up the stairs.
"LET GO" I tried to force his grip out of my wrist but it was no use, he used his strength to throw me back down the stairs, hitting my head on the cold pavement.
My head was already aching from before, right when I thought the pain couldn't get any worse. I could feel my self getting ready to cry, but I didn't want the man to think I'm weak.
I placed both my hands on the ground, forcing myself to get up, but before I could I felt a strong kick against the side of my rib cage, making me fall to on my side. My screams began to echo in the empty room.
What's going to happen to me??
What am I supposed to do??
The pain was unbearable. Who knew something as simple as a kick could bring so much pain.
"Quit your wining" I could feel the mans cold stare, watching me whine like a newborn child.
"I SAID SHUT UP" Another kick was received, but this time on my stomach, making me spit out blood.
"Please... Stop..." It was too much, I couldn't stop myself from crying.
Why is he doing this??
I was too worried about myself to notice Bum alarming me in the back of the room, I almost forgot he was there.
"(Y/n) look out!" I turned my head to see the man holding a metal baseball bat, right above my legs.
SMASH
My right leg easily snapped like a twig.
Humans are very fragile.
My sobbing got louder. I don't know how much of this I can take.
SMASH.
My left leg broke just as easily.
I couldn't take it anymore. The world was swirling. I looked back up seeing the mans terrifying grin, as the the room began to fade.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"PLEASE HELP ME" A voice was heard through the rain. I feel like I've heard it before, but I'm not sure where. I quickly moved my legs to the voice, running through the empty ghost town, only hearing my feet slash through the water. Eventually finding myself in a dead end.
"Wh...what...?"
I quickly turned around, planning on retracing my steps. But a boy who was not there earlier, laid in the way, crying, pleading for help. I recognized him. It was Yoonbum. "B-bum..? Are you alright..?" I got down on my knees, wrapping my arms around him, trying my best to comfort him. I could feel is warm arms, hugging me tightly back. I felt so calm and at ease.
But.
I suddenly felt a sharp pain coming from my back. I quickly turned my head from the shock, noticing a bloody knife sticking perfectly out of my back.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Why am I so cold.
I found myself covered in cold sweat, breathing heavy, trying my best to catch my breath.
Another nightmare.
My breathing was almost out of control, making me sit up, trying to calm myself down.
It felt so real. I almost forgot about my current situation.
It took me a moment to realize I was laying on top of a warn out futon, still in this fucked up basement. There was a strong sting coming from my legs, I glanced at them noticing cuts and bruises all up and down. As much as I wanted to scream just by looking at them, that would probably be a dumb move so I forced myself to stay shut.
"You awake?" The soft voice startled me, I'm keep forgetting I'm not the only one here.
"Yea..."
I looked to my right revealing Bums worried expression, I'm surprised I didn't notice him before.
"Thanks for worrying" I quickly looked down, feeling myself blush a bit, I don't think anyone's been this caring, and I just met this man!
I was still clueless of why the fuck I'm even here in the first place. But I didn't want to keep bothering Bum with a load of questions. Instead, we just awkwardly sat through the silence. It's not like I didn't want to talk to him, I just didn't know where to start. I Decided it would be best to just lay down and try to fall back asleep, trying my best to ignore the unbearable pain in my legs.
Too bad not long after I shut my eyes, the door up the stairs flew open once more, startling me.
Please no, not again.
