CHAPTER FOUR - part 2
You huffed tiredly - tired because you saw so many blood and death on the same time - you leaned against the wall as you close your eyes. Get ready to watch Sunny’s flashback. You are now weak in your knee and limp all over your body. Who wouldn’t anyway?
Jessica holds your hand and with a flick of fingers, now you already in the other place. Beach is in front of you now. It is not like a beach with a good view and stuff actually, it looks so dark and the air is too cold. You can easily see so many cliffs with trees around it. You gulped as you glance at Jessica from the corner of your eyes.
“uh… onnie, I don’t really like the view”
Jessica exhale, her hand still holds you hand loosely. “I know right”
You face the beach again and with your blur vision, you can see someone standing alone on the one of the cliff. Jessica closes her eyes again and soon you already stood behind the person you saw earlier. It is Sunny. You can hear her sobs lightly and you can also see her tremble. You wanted to asked Jessica what happening but she shook her head first and lowered her head.
“Sunny… she was a very rich girl back than. Her family was so perfect, she has all she wanted and made all of the girls envy with her. But yeah as you know, there’s nothing perfect in this world. Her dad, Mr. Lee which is everyone respected so much and her mom which everyone love so much, they were killed by someone. Some said that her parents earn dirty money by some works they didn’t knew and they also said that her parents just put those mask on their face because they didn’t wanted to everyone to know. and…”
“Sunny onnie didn’t believe it” you continue Jessica’s words. She nods slightly.
You head chuckles from guys so you turn your head to your left side and see 3 guys with black mask standing not far from your place with 3 different weapons on their hands. Sunny shudder as the 3 man walk towards her.
“last word miss. Lee?” the man with a knife on his grips asked mockingly.
“go to hell you three”
They laugh stupidly. The man with a knife stood in front of Sunny and gripped Sunny’s shoulder.
“you don’t wanted to consider it again? I mean, you can life happily if you were my wife. I’ll make you a better life”
Sunny slapped his face and push him away. She takes a look down of the cliff and gulped.
“my parents earn so much money because they were worked hard. You guys are dirty” she scoffed. The three mans looked at her madly. “mirrored yourself stupid jerk” she smiles. “don’t be afraid if I haunt you after this”
With that, she throws herself in the air and jump down the cliff to the cold water 100 meters below her feet. The man looked at her from the edge of the cliff as they scoffed - you swear you wanted to use the knife to stab them in the heart.
“what done is done, miss Lee. Pretty, but not cleaver enough to be my wife”
They left the cliff with laughter and you sick of it. You really wanted to punched them and you do it, this time Jessica can’t read your mind because you just decided it 1 second ago and you are now right in front of the man. Your palm turned into a fist and when you about to punch them in the face your medallion buzzing madly as it send you a pain in your heart. You groaned in pain as you close your eyes.
You looked over the man and they’re all now walked pass you. You don’t care anymore with the main when the pain on your heart started to take control of your body. Jessica kneels beside you, worried and panic on her face. You tried to stand up but Jessica forces you to stay in your current position. She pulled you in embrace and closed her eyes.
~~~
Tiffany groans softly after she exited her room and checked your condition. Her hands covered her face as Taeyeon sat beside her and squeeze her shoulder. Try to comfort her.
“what’s wrong, Sica?” she asks.
“I don’t know. It was on Sunny’s flashback and she ran after the three mans and when I about to hold her, she already get ready to punch those man and… and… something happen” she sighs and looked at her lover. “Fany, I’m sorry.” Yoona hugged her from behind when Sooyoung stood up and patted her head.
“we need to know what it was.” Hyoyeon said and everybody nods.
“her medallion. Maybe there’s something wrong with it?” Yuri shrugged. “I mean, she was felt the pain when the medallion buzzed”
“the medallion is attract with her, Yul. We cannot touch it” Jessica sigh.
“why we cannot touch it?”
“if we touched it, than…” Jessica can’t finish her word.
“than?” Seohyun asks innocently.
“something worse gonna happen” answered Sunny, gloomy.
They keep silent for awhile, busy with their own mind. Jessica keep her gaze on Tiffany while the younger girl’s worried feeling hasn’t leave her yet from the first time Jessica appear in the dorm and followed with your pained scream.
“I should never look away from her” Jessica said in her mind and Tiffany looked at her.
“it’s okay Jessi” Tiffany answered in her mind and smile at Jessica. The two of them doing this very often if they didn’t want the other girls know what they were thinking of. And it somehow makes them feel better.
~~~
You wake up in the morning just to find your medallion still buzzing - no, not buzzing anymore. It’s humming - you looked at it and hold it tight in your grip. It is calming you but you wondered what was the kind of buzzed that you heard when you were in Sunny’s flashback and why were your hear hurt like hell.
A soft gentle touch make you opened your eyes and smile when you looked at the older girl beside you. Tiffany is smiling but you can still notice the worried behind it. You straightened your sit. She helps you as if you are just hit by truck and you broke your whole bone. But you don’t mind it.
“how’s your feeling? Better?” she asks, caress your hair. You nod. “what was happening?”
“I don’t know either” the both of you keep silent and slowly, the silent is killing you. so you broke it first with a question you wanted to ask so much. “Fany onnie, can I ask you something?” she smile as she nod.
“there’s something I don’t know about my medallion right? because… I still don’t get it. I saw Jessica onnie, Taeyeon onnie and Sunny onnie’s death but… I still confuse. Plus, I’m not special, there’s so many Sone out there who maybe more special than me and they maybe have all of SNSD’s thingy mre than I have. But… why me?”
Tiffany smile before she answers your question. “first of all, we don’t looked at you from how many collections you have and you have to know that you are” she pointed you with her finger. “you are more than special. And yes, there’s something on your medallion which make you as special as you right now. It’s must be Jessi or Taengoo who explain all of this to you but since the rest of the girls are quiet busy no-“
“wait a second” you narrow you eyes. “the rest of the girl? do you mean that you should with them now?” Tiffany nods. “ehhhh~ why?”
Tiffany chuckles and patted you head. “we need to keep our eyes on you, Kiddo. Believe it or not but your life if more precious than ours” you about to answer again but she continue talking. “do you even know who is your grandfather? Or… the reason why your dad gave you this necklace?” you shook you head. She smile and stood up, stick her hand on you. “come with me” she said and you reach out her hand.
~~~
“Tiffany is going somewhere with our favorite sone” Jessica whispers to Taeyeon as she waves her hand towards the cheering fans.
Taeyeon does the same thing as Jessica before she whispers back to the taller girl. “you better keep contacting them or maybe something bad would happen”
The MC walked towards the 8 girls who stood calmly in the middle of the stage. They are just finished performing Hoot and Run Devil Run when the MC bowed respectfully at them. They bowed back at him. They answered some questions from the MC which every each question made the fan cheering even louder. The MC about to ask the next question when Yuri groan softly behind the two leaders.
“what was that for?” Jessica asks, not moving her lips from smile and keep her focus to the MC.
“my softlense. It’s gonna be broken soon” she whispers.
“mine too” add Sooyoung.
Taeyeon looked at Jessica as she talks in her mind. “what we gonna do now?”
“Yul, how long you can hold it?” Jessica asks when the MC signaled to the fans to choose their favorite member.
“can’t hold it anymore”
Jessica bit her lip as her brain started to think all possibilities to go down the stage as soon as possible. But there is nothing can she does though because they have to keep their professionality or their manager gonna kill them. Jessica looked at behind her and found Yuri lowered her head behind Yoona’s body when the younger girl’s bit her lips to hold on the pain on her eyes. She finds her eyes hurt too and she cannot take it any longer. When the MC about to asked her and Jessica about to whined to go to the restroom, Sunny’s motion cought her eyes. The aegyo queen massages her temple and wink at Jessica when she - pretending - collapse to the floor and everything around them started to panic.
“nice Soonkyu” Hyoyeon giggles in their mind.
10 minutes later, the eight of them already sat on the couch in the waiting room with their manager looked at them angrily. And yeah of course, they already change their broken soft lense into the new one. Jessica leans against the wall with her cold glare when Taeyeon keep her head lowered.
“what the hell was that for?” their manager ask hold on his anger.
“sorry oppa, but I have to do that” answered Sunny easily.
Sunny’s answered and the way she said it really make their manager can’t take it anymore. When he about to yell at her, Jessica read his mind and said coolly.
“everyone gonna heard it, you know” manager oppa look at her in surprise. This is not the first time he found it weird that Jessica always knew what he about to say. Oh and he didn’t know that the 9 of the girls are vampires. Or half vampires. “just calm down oppa. There’s no media in here so…”
“what did you said again Jessica Jung??” he yell and Jessica rolled her eyes.
“I said don’t yelling” she said calmly.
“do you think if there’s no media means nobody would know what the hell happen back than?? Are you kidding me??”
Jessica shrugged. “no media, no cameras, no videos, nothing but us”
“just trust her, oppa” Yoona said as she mirrored herself.
“trust her?? there was more than 100 fans and they watched the incident! They will be told everybody about this!”
“you’re worry too much, oppa. let’s bet, today’s incident won’t be appear anywhere. Just calm down and watch” Sunny stood up and pats his shoulder. They walked pass their still angry manager and make direction to their van.
Jessica was busy thinking of Tiffany when something interrupted her hearing. She stopped and looked towards the empty hallway in her left. Taeyeon notice it and stopped too when the other girls already heading to the parking lot. She shush Taeyeon when the shorter girl about to ask and walked softly until their step can’t be heard with anybody. They slowly can hear the voice of one man and one woman talking seriously about something familiar to the both of the leaders. They stopped when they can clearly enough to hear the conversation.
“it will be more easy if those 9 girls didn’t protect her” said the man. Jessica looked at Taeyeon behind her who covered her mouth with both of her hands. Jessica nodded, approving that the two strangers are talking about them.
“I know right. Besides… it won’t be interesting if we can get the medallion easily” the woman chuckles. Jessica and Taeyeon frowns, familiar with both voices. “we should get it soon or Master will be so angry.”
“of course. I can’t be more patient any longer though”
“and remember to kill that girl first. Master wanted Tiff-“ the woman stop talking when Jessica make a noise by dropped her bracelet. It is a really really soft noise but somebody who talked about the medallion surely has a very great hearing.
The two leaders eyes widening when they heard footsteps approaching them. Taeyeon grabs Jessica’s wrist and pull her away from their spot by running as fast as they can without took the bracelet first. They’re gone in sight right when the two strangers appear on their previous spot and took Jessica’s bracelet.
“They’re just eavesdropping us.” The man chuckled as he puts the bracelet on his jeans pocket.
The woman smirks. “Let the war begin.”
