Summary: Yoochun was back in his room
Yoochun was back in his room, everyone was, for the little amount of time they had left before morning they wanted to sleep
It wasn't easy to convince the others to go to sleep, especially after they saw the note the killer left on the wall and knew he had an easy access to the place, they weren't safe
He could've killed him tonight, yoochun thought; he couldn't stop thinking that actually. He was alone, with a dead body, and no weapon in reach to protect himself and yet the murderer waited till he left the room to leave his message, why didn't he kill him? Why keep him alive
He wants to play you; the voice in his mind spoke again, but no, something else was into it, yoochun knew, there were more secrets for him to reveal, starting with this ugly man or whoever
Closing his eyes yoochun made sure his gun was in reach this time, although he knew he won't need it, not tonight. He just closed his eyes and tried to relax, images of the sweet time he spent tonight before all this mess happened filled his mind again and he grinned happily while drifting to sleep
When yoochun opened his eyes again he looked up, he half expected or more likely hoped to see a very familiar, very pretty face looking at him. However, he didn't. There was no one looking back at him, there was no one else with him in the room. Junsu wasn't there
He'll come soon, yoochun thought, he got dressed and today he wore a hoodie as it was too cold for one T shirt only, he walked downstairs to see the four men waiting for him for breakfast
'Morning' yoochun sighed and looked at them, they all nodded at him and jaejoong walked to the kitchen to serve him breakfast escorted by yunho as a bodyguard or a body-feeler as yoochun noticed yunho never took his eyes or his hands off jaejoong's body
Changmin and kibum, on the other hand, were sitting close together, silently eating their food
'Did you sleep last night?'
Kibum hesitated, he looked up at yoochun and whispered softly:' Minnie helped me sleep'
'I'm sure he did' yoochun rolled his eyes ' get some sleep after breakfast too, you look tired'
Kibum nodded his head and changmin frowned
He hated this, he hated the fact that kibum allowed yoochun to give him orders like this, only him was allowed to do this, only him and no one else
'Easy or you're going to snap it'
Changmin blinked, he looked at yoochun and down at his hand which was holding the spoon still, he was holding it too hard that his hand was shivering and it really did look he will snap it any second now
'Here you go' jaejoong walked back and served him breakfast; yoochun looked at the food and wondered, is junsu eating his food now?
'What happens now?' asked yunho as he took his seat beside his lover
'I need you to go ask about this…this ugly man while I take a little walk in the woods'
Kibum dropped his spoon and gasped, he snuggled closer to changmin and held onto him in horror
'Its okay kid, I went in and out of it a lot of times already' yoochun assured the shocked boy
'But…but…the forest…it's…' kibum tried to talk
'I've got a gun and I am the best sniper there is. I'll be fine' yoochun smiled calming the boy down ' beside, I'm going in to check on something and I'll be back soon'
'Check on what? What is it inside the forest?' yunho frowned, the spoon of rice paused midway to his mouth as he heard yoochun's words. Thinking about it, yunho decided that yoochun had been going to the forest way too much
'Something' yoochun smiled tiredly at them, his trip to the forest might have to wait till he gets some sleep, as two hours of sleep are barely enough for his tired body
Breakfast went by, no one ate much. Yunho and jaejoong, of course, left to ask about the ugly man and gather some information for yoochun while kibum and changmin were left to take care of the inn, yoochun was about to wait till the pair came back before he goes into the forest, he wanted to hear what they had to say about this ugly man
Yoochun sat down in front of the fire watching the two men left with him, changmin was reading a book and eyeing kibum while the last held on a piece of cloth sewing it, it was a very small piece of cloth
Something clicked in yoochun's mind
'Kibum, when you were a baby, did you have a doll?'
Kibum blinked at him and bit on his lower lip, he nodded his head
'What?' changmin frowned ' how come I never saw it?'
'I… mom made it for me, it was from fabric and stuffed with cotton. It was dressed in…'
'White hanbok' yoochun finished
Kibum eyed him for a second and nodded his head
'What was its name?'
'Su shi' kibum pouted ' mom told me it was its name'
Su shi, yoochun thought, as in junsu? This was only supporting the thought that…
'Where is it now?'
'I… I don't know… I didn't think of it for a long time…since…since that day…I never found it…and I thought…'
'That your parents took it because you were a bad boy who didn't listen to them?'
Kibum nodded his head, eyeing yoochun still
This all seemed déjà vu, he had heard this before, only from a different man. The doll was lost after the parents were killed… why? What was so special about it?
It was junsu, the doll was him; the voice in his mind spoke again. The doll was taken away because it was junsu. Whoever took it knew what it meant
But then, who knew about junsu?
His master did, the voice answered again
Yoochun felt so frustrated; with every step he took forward he found himself two steps backward. He thought he was on to something but he only found himself asking more questions with no answer to them
But there are answers to them, the voice spoke softly
Where? Yoochun wanted to yell out loud, to scream in anger, where were those damn answers?
His master must know, he raised him, he kept him a secret, he must know about junsu better than anyone else, the voice whispered gently, as if afraid of yoochun's hostility
And I'll make him speak! Yoochun hissed, this time he will go into the forest not to find junsu, but to find his master!
Soft footsteps coming, a whispering sounds and the door opened
'We're back!' the door was opened and the two shivering men walked into the inn
'What did you find out?' yoochun was in a hurry to know, he was in a hurry to go
'He missed his visit, according to an elder he had promised him to come this morning and bring him some candles with him, but he didn't come' jaejoong frowned
'We asked him about the newspaper. He said the ugly man can't read or write, he brings the newspaper for the high school's archive' yunho added
'Can't read, huh?' yoochun sighed ' so basically anyone who had been into he high school can get the newspaper' he frowned
'Sorry… no one seems to know much about him' yunho sighed ' we asked everywhere'
'I see' yoochun thought about it for a while, something else was popping in his mind, something he should've thought about the second he heard about this ugly man, but still he looked at jaejoong and spoke:' you saw him lately, you know how he looks, right?'
Jaejoong nodded
'I'll draw, you tell me how he looks like' yoochun smirked, he was proud of himself, this will work for sure!
