floor 09

THERE WAS NO TIME in The Otherworld so June doesn't know how long it was he is in this world, but he knows that he has been there for too long and he didn't even saw Leila yet.

It was a surprise for June not fainting since it was said that 'you may faint in the middle of the game', but surprisingly he hasn't fainted nor even felt dizzy. He just felt confused and anxious.

He went back to the elevator he used to get there (which took him so long to reach since the elevator was seemingly always far). Once he reached there, he went to the ninth floor, also where Jasper's apartment is located.

As the elevator landed on the ninth floor, he went out and put a reminder again on how he can find his elevator and continued to find Leila.

He was about to yell out to at least call for Leila's attention - if she's on that floor - but then he heard a familiar voice shouting.

"Who the f*ck are you?! Why are you here??" He immediately recognizes it. It's Leila's voice.

To whoever she was yelling at didn't reply with words but instead with laughter that was so loud that June heard it.

June went closer to the voices and he realizes that the voices came from Jasper's apartment.

He leans his ear to the door to try to make up more of their words.

"I said who the f*ck are you?!"

The other woman laughs incredibly loud and creepy. Then she stops.

"Your nightmare." Then she laughs once again, now even louder and creepier.

June then heard footsteps going towards the door. He immediately opened the door across it and hid there in a dark room. Then a horrible, foul stench greets his nose. The normal thing to do was to open the lights to find out what that stench is, but it was a mistake.

Numerous corpses greeted June. Some are lying on the floor, on the couch, and one even on the TV.

As June backs away, he suddenly felt someone grabs him and eternal darkness greets him.

"JUNE!! Please! Stop! Please!! Wake up! Please!! Make him stop that! Please!!" Faint cries of a girl and another woman's cackle are what Jungkook keeps hearing and after a while, it became clear.

The cries and laughter were not from his dream.

He slowly opens his eyes and he can clearly see where he is. He's in Jasper's apartment.

"June..." a voice called. He turns to his right side to see Leila, her eyes are wet and reddish like she really cried.

He looks at her and realizes she was tied up. His immediate reaction was to go to her and set her free but he then realizes that he himself is also tied up. He turns towards the woman.

Now he has a clear look at the woman that they say the one who enters the fifth floor. Some had different descriptions of how that woman look. But for June's perspective is something else.

She has black messy hair, the tips have red blood. She was extremely thin but surprisingly has an hourglass figure. Though her face said the otherwise. The cheekbones are popping up. Her face itself was thin. The hollows around her eyes are sunken and the under eyes are black-purplish. Though her eyes have a pretty dark purple color. She has chapped and pale lips. Overall her face would be pretty if it wouldn't be so thin.

But the overall look of her would make you sense that there's something off from her. And obviously, her face will haunt him forever.

He sent a deadly glare at the woman but the woman is unaffected and just continued on laughing. After a while, June felt pain tingling around his arms. He immediately looks at his biceps to see that it has scratches and wounds on them.

He was hurting himself.

Now he knows that he is not in a dream. All of this is real.

"Who are you?" June asks in a calm tone but anger is still seeping through.

Finally, the woman stopped laughing and looks at June directly to the eyes.

"Me? Why do you and that girl wanna know who I am? Isn't it already obvious? I'm your nightmare." And just then June felt himself clawing his arms again, his left hand clawing himself with bare hands whilst the right hand has a broken glass which he was using like a knife to cut his skin, while still tied up in a rope. June had no control at all with his hands. The woman continued laughing because of this.

"No!! Stop! Stop, you son of a b*tch!!" Leila yelled and June keep clawing and stabbing himself and screaming in pain as the woman kept laughing.

Eventually, the clawing and the woman's cackling stop. The woman grinned as she sashayed out of the room.

June starts to even out his breath trying to calm himself from the pain, anger from that demonic woman, and the anxiousness he's feeling for Leila.
