"Chen? Hyung?" Suho called out to the damaged bodies before him. Sehun crawled up in a ball, sobbing.

Sure he was the maturest out of them all but he was younger, this tragic even affected him really badly. Not just Sehun but the others too, some had different ways to dealing with grief and loss.

Chanyeol screamed until he fired up, Baekhyun on all four punching the ground and curing this world for putting them in such difficulty and problems. If they never ended up here, they would still have D.O by their side and Xiumin.

Suho and Lay tried to regain Chen's conscious, yes they tried to bring back Xiumin but there was just nothing, what lay on the hard ground was a pile of the most beautiful, baby blue shade of soft snow.

No one dared to touch it or move it. It was Xiumin. Kai tried to console the maknae who was an emotional mess. Crying and crying because Xiumin's gone.

"Is hyung alright?" Asked Chen who woke up after days of the incident. No one knew how to tell him, since he examined the familiar cave, Chen thought Xiumin was here too, alright and alive. But he wasn't. It still felt like it happened minutes ago.

No one spoke to each other. Well what would they say to each other? Chen wandered through the small cave rooms, only to hear whimpering and sobs.

Sehun, still in the corner of his room, balled up, crying. Rocking back and forth biting his finger nail as if a crazy demon had possessed him.

Chen was in such denial, but decided to comfort the maknae. Due to Sehun's appearance, he understood.

"HYUNG?" Sehun immediate sprang up by Chen's touch, hoping it was Xiumin. But his eyes disappointed him. Or it was truth. "He's not coming back."

Sehun lowered his gaze, hiding his red puffy sad eyes. "Sehun-ah, stop, let's get something to eat, I'm starving!"

No response from the younger male. Chen gulped down the fear in him and prepared for whatever was about to be thrown at him for what he was about to say.

It was already hard for him to accept it but he had to. So he spoke as calmly as he could "Sehun, crying won't get hyung back. Stop this nonsense and move on....I'm sure hyung would want us to get out of here.

He's in a better place now. Trust me." He flashed a bitter smile that somehow convinced Sehun.

Sehun nodded. "I just.. I miss him. A lot." He let out a small smile. "I know." Chen hugged the youngster. "I do too, now let's eat! Where are the others?"
