The wind whipped my hair back from my face. I don't know how I got here, all I know is that I am standing on the edge of a rooftop staring down at the bustling city streets below.

My heart was pounding in my chest while the rain beat down on me from above. It was as if the sky was crying. Am I dreaming or is this real?

As I stared down at the ground below it started to ripple and turn black. This has to be a dream. Steadily the sky turned into the static from a distorted TV screen.

Flashes of Jungkook came into view in between the black, gray, and white flashes. I looked up to see his worried eyes burning into me. Why does it hurt so much?

The black rippling pool crept closer up the side of the building. I could feel the hate and hopelessness radiating from it's putrid form. I looked up at the sky once more it had turned pitch black with piercing yellow eyes staring down at me.

"You can't escape me for long." He growled shaking the whole building making me teeter on the ledge. The edges of my sight frayed as pain shot through my entire body.

I fell over the ledge. Plummeting into the sludge head first. It was much like falling into water. You can't breathe in or you'll drown or come up sputtering and coughing all crazy.

Although, this burned me to the core. Every bad thought that ever went through my mind invaded it once more. Every sick feeling that made me want to end my life before came back. I was drowning in the sorrows of my lifetime. The rejection from my parents... The woman who broke every bone she could get her hands on before folding me up in a barrel to die. Then... him. The demon that haunted my nightmares. Who torments me now.

I can hear him laughing somewhere close by. But, I can also hear the quiet prayers of Kookie trickling through the thick dark walls. Little sparks of light fluttered around. Tiny fireworks of hope to keep me holding on.

His low guttural growl assaulted my ears and then I was cast into darkness once more.

Jungkook

"Where did they find him?" I asked taking hold of Taehyung's bruised one. He looked much like he did when they found him the first time. Only difference was nothing was broken.

"They found him in an abandoned barn. Some hunters were scoping out the place for a potential deer stand. Found him covered in blood. Oh Jeon... there's more."

I looked up at Jimin his face was grim. He looked like what he had to say was going to make him sick.

"Spit it out Park." The anxiety rising in my chest as I demanded him to speak. He ran his fingers through his bleached hair, taking a deep breath as his face paled a little. What the hell could it be?

"The blood wasn't his... it was of the victims that have been found."

A rock formed in my throat. I couldn't breathe looking down at my Tae. He wouldn't hurt a fly. There has to be an explanation. There just had to be.

"I..." Jimin started stopping when he saw me crumple over spilling the contents of my stomach. I couldn't believe it, so why am I shaking?

"He didn't do it." I said sternly as I wiped my mouth. Jimin's nose curled in disgust at my actions. He was always a bit squeamish with bodily fluid. It reminded me of that one time I hooked up with him and I... nevermind not important.

He glared at me then left the room. I looked back at Tae, they had him handcuffed to the bed. If he saw that his heart would be completely shattered. My poor baby. I'll get this sorted love. You won't have to see any of this. I promise you.

A nurse came in with a mop to clean up my mess. I apologized furiously. She just smiled cleaned it then left me with a sleeping Tae. He looked sad as if the dream he was having hurt him.

I wish I could take that away. To make him happy once more. God please help my baby. He needs you right now and so do I. We always need you. If you could just help him through this... please.

I stayed there waiting for him to wake up. But he didn't. He would whimper from time to time and that was it. So, I did what I do best. I started to investigate to clear my love's name.

"I'll return to you Baby. You rest for now."
