?CLOWN?

12/13

''i hate clowns. i hate clowns. i hate clowns.'' seungkwan chanted over and over again, but he was deathly afraid.

''let me watch the news in peace, thanks'' minghao sighed.

''what did i say about clowns'' jihoon hissed as he came into the room with a guitar.

''we need to keep ourselves informed if there's a clown going around'' seokmin said in a monotone as his eyes stared at the tv screen. ''we need to protect ourselves''

''have you guys seen soonyoung?'' junhui asked as he entered the break room for about three seconds.

''no he might be in one of the dance rooms, so check on that'' chan replied as he stretched out in front of the tv.

''move'' seokmin pushed chan away from the screen.

shortly later, the hip hop unit returned into the breakroom, sweat covering their foreheads and sticking to their shirts. jihoon fanned seungcheol as he collapsed to the ground and panted.

''water'' he rasped.

jeonghan, who walked into the room, got his water bottle confiscated by jihoon, who gave the water to the fallen leader.

''much thanks'' seungcheol said before pouring the water all over him.

''why is our leader on the floor dead?'' jisoo came into the room and handed jeonghan a new water bottle.

''seungcheol hyung was captured by the clown?'' seungkwan shot up off the ground and shrieked.

''calm down, hunty! im fine!'' seungcheol chucked the empty water bottle at seungkwan.

vernon consoled seungkwan while mingyu amd wonwoo went to help their leader het off the ground since jihoon was too small to help.

seungcheol ended up on the ground again after they heard junhui scream and flee to the end of the hall. jihoon went to see what was wrong, only to see junhui trying to escape from something by opening the emergency exit, only that the emergency exit refused to open.

''junhui whats wrong?''

''CLOWN!'' junhui pointed across the hall.

jihoon shouldn't have turned to look at the other end od thr hall. he shouldn't have, but he did. he didn't see anything.

''are you okay?'' jihoon asked. ''there's nothing there''

junhui tried to explain, but he started to cry. he was so overwhelmed that he couldn't help but burst into tears and fall on the ground. minghao who came out of the break room to see what was wrong, rushed over to junhui and started comforting him.

''mingyu! wonwoo! come here'' jihoon called into the break room.

the two boys came to jihoon who said '' somethings wrong, and i need you two to come with me'

''why not minghao'' mingyu asked.

jihoon pointed at the corner where china line were and was about to say something when they heard a curdling shriek. wonwoo and mingyu both jumped into each others' arms and pushed jihoon to lead them to the source of the noise. it was dumb but they did so.

they should've just stayed in the breakroom. mingyu and wonwoo took one look into the studio where the scream came from and sprinted to the break room, jihoon rooted to his spot in fear, fear because of what was in the practice room, fear because he knew where soonyoung was.

there was a clown, just as junhui stated previously. the clown was not a carnival clown, nor a birthday party clown. it was a bloody clown, a clown with limbs made of enlarged thorns. it was so big that the top of its head grazed the ceiling lights and the panels on the ceiling, and when it breathed, its back would touch the top. the body, the stomach, of the clown itself was thin, almost as if it were hollow; it had soonyoung in it's mouth.

''jihoon!'' soonyoung cried.

jihoon fell to the ground and started crying. he could see soonyoung's legs bloody and broken on the ground. soonyoung's arms were reaching out for the fallen boy, the clown taking soonyoung into his mouth a little further. soonyoung's head disappeared into the mouth of the clown, and then it's teeth bit down, soonyoung's arm getting chopped off. his arm flew to the ground where his other limbs rested, jihoon holding back the urge to barf.

''s-SOONYOUNG'' jihoon breathed out as he cries.

''soonyoung's'' jihoon whimpered before crying into his palms.

he sat on the ground for a good ten minutes. he was still crying when he returned to the break room, where everyone was staring at him as he returned. no one said anything. they whatched as jihoon took a couple of shaky breaths and looked up, tears streaming down his face.

''the clown'' he took a deep breath and cried even harder. ''it ate soonyoung.''
