Death is inevitable...

But sometimes love plays its magic...

And turns the impossible into possible...

I always wondered, what would happen if I lose the one I love?

What will happen if I just vanish from the face of the earth?

Will I be the same?

But I certainly didn't expect that they would experience it soon.

--PRESENT--

"All armed sir!"

"Tell 'em to get down on their knees!"

"But sir-"

"Tell them to get down on their knees or you'll be beheaded!" the man nodded his head up and down and quickly left the scene.

"Should we take the Kim siblings first?" another man approaches him.

"Yes."

"On your command, sir." the man bowed and left leaving our previous man alone with his thoughts.

"The game's over, Kim. " He chuckled.

"And there goes your queen!"

"That's cheating!"

"No, it isn't!"

"Yes, it is!"

"Mooom~" Hyomi groaned earning a giggle from her mother.

"You all are still kids." she smiled and caressed Hyomi's hair.

"But I'm 20!" Taehyung angrily crossed his arms.

"And I'm 17!" Hyomi accidentally knocked out the ball of popcorn.

"Oops-"

"Yeah yeah, I get it. Y'all are grown up, my choo choo and chi chi!" their mother laughed.

"Stop calling us that!" Taehyung huffed.

"Yeah yeah"

Boom!

"Mom, what was that?"

The said lady stopped raking her slender fingers. An expression of alarm and fear took over her wrinkled features as she hurriedly struggled to get up from the sofa due to panic.

The door of the room in which they three were sitting was pushed open harshly.

"Get the kids to a safer place, will you dear?" an old man spoke, panting heavily. He clutched the wooden door to regain his strength.

"Taehyung, take your sister to the other basement and stay there unless you hear one of us, okay sweetie?"

"Okay mom" Taehyung grabbed Hyomi by her arm and dragged her out of the room. But not before glancing back at two fearful faces.

Suddenly the window near their mom crashed sending millions of glass shards all over the room. Taehyung quickly closed the door and shut his eyes close, unable to see what happened inside.

Bullets firing and screams were all they heard as both Taehyung and Hyomi ran through the now dark hallways. Their naked feet thumping on the clumsy dark flooring. Hyomi looked back, the men were gaining on them.

She couldn't go on for long but she has to for the sake of their parents, for the sake of Kim Corporation, for the sake of her dreams, for the sake of Taehyung.

Doors after doors, they ran on the seemingly endless corridor. But it just didn't end. Their feet were about to give up but they didn't. The other basement was just right around the corner. It would be a world record if they made it on time. But then...Taehyung stopped running.

Hyomi halted in her steps, the abrupt stop sent her across the wall.

"Ouch!"

She got up on her knees, too tired to even look up and check on Taehyung. A dim lamp illuminated the inky passageway. The warm yellowish light shone upon a pool of ichor which caught Hyomi's attention. She slowly lifted her head to see Taehyung smeared with his blood. The fluid soaking his nightdress to the extent that his white pajamas were tainted in blush pink.

"No no no no NOOOO!" Hyomi screamed seeing her brother sleeping soundly on the cold and hard floor, only to never wake up again.

Her shivering fingers painted her face a deep red. She slowly took the sleeping man on her lap, the blood submerging both of them. The whole situation was messy, she couldn't just define the pain she was in. She saw his once tan-colored face, slowly lose its color.

"NOOOOO!!"

"Please wake up Tae! I promise I'll not cheat in chess! Please just wake up!" her whispers were just for him to hear but she only got silence in return.

"Please w-wake up!"

The walls, the floor, and the lamp witnessed a heartbreak. Her chest was clenching as if a part of her just got ripped out. Her tears didn't let her breathe. A salty droplet ran down her features, tracing every bump and ridge. The drop fell on Taehyung's cheek, mixing with his blood as it slid off his smooth face.

Bang!

A bullet hit her stomach in her unawareness. She fell near her brother's body. Her quiet whimpers accompanying her physical yet mental agony.

Her entire life flashed in front of her eyes.

Her mother's smile, her father's strict facade, Taehyung's annoying whines, the Kim corporation, the papers...

Yes! This is it! The papers!
