Young-min Kwan's Story

Young-min Kwan

Young-min was devastated even though it had happened weeks ago. His insomnia had gotten worse though, he wasn't even wanting to do his fashion line at all. He literally locked himself up into his old room that his parents had left and was crying his heart out. He was just one big crying mess who didn't want to live at the moment. His mother had tried and tried to get him at least to eat or out of the room, but it really was no use. He just didn't want to do anything. His hair was a mess, not in it's normal gelled manner and his eyes were very puffy and red from the heavy duty crying he has been doing. He's been in his bed all day and all night, hugging one of his old Winnie the Pooh pillows his parents had kept in the old room for dear life. His knuckles were white from just holding onto the pillow. He felt like a wreck. The last time he had cried this hard was back in junior high and was confused with his sexuality. He really needed a way to stop being a nervous breakdown and learn to give up on Gyeong. Gyeong was the source of his problems. He had finally gotten a break though, having the chance to make his own line. He was so happy when he was given the news, but his whole world came crashing down when he came back to his apartment to tell his boyfriend of three years. He found his boyfriend, Gyeong, in bed with a woman, a hooker no doubt. His whole heart just crashed as he started to scream at them and threw whatever he could at the man all the while crying, crying, and crying. He grabbed all that he could in a short amount of time and left. He left that apartment and that man.

He only had about few hours of sleep within the two weeks of being locked up. He was just blankly staring at his white ceiling with emptiness in his heart. He still had that pillow close to him as he tried to think about everything except Gyeong. It was when his father had finally managed to open his bedroom door with a little white envelope in hand. It had simple pink and gold embroidery on it he wondered whatever it could be. "Igeos-eun dangsin-eul wihaemeil, adeul e dochaghaessseubnida. dangsin-eun nagal junbi gadoemyeon alaecheung-eiss-eul geobnida*." His father left his room quietly, leaving with the envelope still in hand. Young-min stood up for once and just stared at the door. He finally sighed and got up off his bed, making his way out of his bedroom and down the stairs. His mother was so happy that her son finally came out of his bedroom. He attempted to smile, but it only came out broken. His father nodded and he gave him the envelope. The fashion designer simply opened the letter and immediately start reading it. His eyes shown and sparkled as he continued to read it. His lips broke into a smile as happiness actually overwhelmed him. He won the vacation of a lifetime.

~~Present Time~~

Young-min slept most of the way to St. Love Mansion. He needed to catch up on his sleeping if he wanted to function properly. He was weighing less than he normally was, so his limousine was pretty much covered in snacks and bags of candy. Even though he still didn't get much sleep, he was feeling better. He was sick of the food, but he needed to get his weight back. He almost looked like a anorexic person and he really isn't. He woke up from a nap with a cranky look on his face as he picked up a half full bag of chips. He attempted to finish the bag off as he reached for his fashion sketch book. That was one thing he needed to do. He had a fashion line due in a month and he hasn't even started on it. He grabbed a red pen and just started sketch different outfits he had in mind. Most of the dresses he had sketched seemed very dark and emotional as his mentality was effecting his fashion sense. Though he was only clad in a silky buttoned up shirt with only a few buttons actually buttoned and some very baggy black jeans that actually used to fit very well. As the limo came to a complete stop, he quickly swiped up all his trash and putting it into one big bag. After he finally did so, the driver opened his door for him and helped him out. Young-min had a distance look on his face as he checked the front of the mansion out. It was absolutely breathtaking. "Aisssh! So pretty..." Before he knew it, the driver had already taken out all his luggage and actually left without a trace. He pursed his lips as he was confused about it, but he let it go. He immediately set one of his many, many bags on the ground and sat on it. He just wanted to admire the view for awhile, getting inspiration. He wasn't ready to go in the mansion yet, he was going to wait for others to show up. He just...wanted to think. And he did need some help with his bags, he could only carry so much.

[*This came in the mail for you, son. When you're ready to come out, will be down stairs.]

Eun Chai

Eun sighed softly when she heard banging on the door. She decided on not getting the door. She was heart broken once again. Akemi had broken up with her because she wanted to give her ex another chance. Eun couldn't even say anything when Akemi told her this. She just walked out. That day she gave up on the idea of l'ove forever. She didn't want to feel the pain of heartbreak ever again.

For the whole week Eun just stayed in her apartment and painted. Painting always made her feel better, it took her mind off things. She had even turned her cell phone off. As thoughts ran through her head, she wished the person knocking at the door would just leave.

"Eun Chai! I swear if you don't pick up this phone I will break this door down! I don't find it funny you had your phone off! You already missed two photo shoots this week! Open this door or its coming down in...five, four, three...tw-," this voice came from Tadao, Eun's manager. Eun guessed he gave up on trying to call her cell phone. Eun sighed as went and opened the door.

"Yes Tadao? " she asked in a hoarse voice. She rubbed her eyes before looking at her flustered manger. Tadao blinked in surprise when he saw Eun eyes were red and puffy. Tadao groaned before he took Eun in his arms, he hugged her very tightly.

"Oh honey, did this relationship go bad too? I'm sorry. Oh cheer up, you'll find someone better that is worth your time," he said. Tadao gave her a peck on the forehead. Eun pulled away from the hug then sat on the stool. She added a dark red paint for the outline of her painting.

"You said I'd find someone better last time...I'm done with love, never again. Please, let's stop talking about this, I just finished crying," she told Tadao. He sighed and rolled his eyes.

"Fine, fine, anyway here is your mail," he said. Tadao placed the mail on her lap. Eun put the brush down and went through her mail. She titled her head to the side curiously when she saw a little white envelope with simple pink and gold embroidery on it. Eun opened the envelope and read the letter. A smile tugged at the corner of her lips. She turned to look at Tadao surprised.

"I won a contest to go to St.Love Mansion for vacation," she said. Tadao smiled brightly at her.

"Good, that is just what you need. So do the two photo shoots you missed before you leave and your schedule will be cleared. Hmm, I'll take care of your apartment I guess when you're gone. Only thing is, call me the day you will be back home," he told Eun. She nodded and went back to painting. She couldn't wait to relax on vacation, she hadn't had one in a long, long time. A few minutes later Tadao left.

|Present Time|

Eun just looked out the window and listen to the radio during the drive to St. Love Mansion. When they got to the mansion, Eun hadn't even notice. Only reason she notice they stopped was the limo driver opened the door. She took a deep breath before she walked out of the limo. She glanced at the man, Young-min Kwan, who was already there. She didn't know weather to say hi or not. She bit her bottom lip as she thought, but she got distracted when the limo she was in suddenly drove off. 'I didn't get to say thank you or bye,' she thought. She looked at her luggage neatly placed next to the luggage that was already there.

"H-hello. Are we suppose to wait outside?' she questioned nervously. Her cheeks were a light pink as her shy side was starting to show. Eun smoothed her dress down while she waited for a reply. Today, she had used a curling iron to make her hair extra curly. She wore a sleeveless, black, flower pattern, lace dress that stopped at the middle of her thighs. The dress hugged her body, showing off her curves. Lastly, she had black flats on. Eun crossed her ankles as she looked the mansion over. 'Beautiful,' she thought to herself. She wondered where their host was.

Riku Nagataka
Riku had been sitting on one of the chairs in the art room along with Luhan who was like the child of the house. Riku mindlessly doodling on a paper he found as Luhan colored singing to himself. He found himself wandering back to his life and trying his best to remember every little detail of it.
FLASH BACK
“RIKU!” Riku had awoken from his sleep to see his sister screaming and his mother was being held back and lead out of the room. It took him a second to gain knowledge on where he was, the hospital. He had been stuck in here for a few months now and it had grown to become a big pain. He hated being hooked up into IVS and what else they had him on.“Aika stop screaming and crying. What’s wrong? Why is mom acting like that. “ He asked looking at his sister who refused to move as doctors rushed in yelling things he couldn’t make out. “Yah! Aika awnser me! “ He yelled only to get nothing but sobbing back. He watched as doctors rushed around his bed yelling things. When they brought out the reviver pads Rikua freaked out. “WHAT ARE YOU DOING PUT THOSE AWAY!” He screamed trying to get off the bed- and with not grace he fell from the bed onto his face. “Now look at what you idiots did! Cant yo-“ He was cut off by yelling. “CLEAR!” Rikus face paled as he looked upon his bed, and not even four feet away above him was his pale and lifeless body. Everything he had sliped through his hands in an instant. He had no idea where to go how to live…Until he Meet Ms. Moon a few weeks after who took him in. He had been here about a year now.

PRESENT TIME
“ Ugh I hope these humans bring some food- and good food. Hopefully they bring things I can take and keep.” He smiled while continuing to draw his chibis. His one he had begun working on started to look like Luhan with fat round cheeks and a piggy nose. He smiled before looking at the younger, “Why do you think Ms. Moon allowed them to come. I guess it would be nice to toy with them and what not but don’t you think it will be strange—They better not bug me and ask me to do magic trick! I am not a clown.” He smiled as he looked out the nearest window noticing a boy.
“Ah, looks like we have person number one. Let’s see, he is a cutie.” He looked over the boy from the window analyzing him trying to see how close he could match the boys looks up to his personality he would see.
“Looks a bit angry and kind of distant.” He wandered out loud. ‘What do you think LuLu?” He asked his other ghost friend who had stopped singing and appeared next to him.

LuHan Kwon

“Don’t hesitate anymore, okay?
Please take out my heart
Love is like a ray of dazzling light
At the next night’s moonlight, close your eyes’
Luhans silvery sotto voce singing continued as he continued to color in a Care Bear coloring book he found in the art room. The Boy deiced to claim it as his own and scribbled his name in there smiling innocently at his bears he was coloring. Lu couldn’t help but to feel jealous of the bears- they lived happy lives with people that loved them.
FLASH BACK
“Stop! Stop!” Luhans soft voice screamed out as another blow was forced into his rib cage while laughter began draining out the pleas of the young boy. After more failed attempts to get the group of boys to stop he decided to give up and take the hits. With every kick he felt his heart break and his hopes crash. “Awe is Hannie crying?” One of the boys in the group laughed grabbing the thin boy by his hair and dragging him up to face him. Luhan would kill anyone if they called him ‘Hannie’ again, just thinking about it made the boy sob. The brown haired boy’s body shook with fear as he felt hands run up and down his back side and made their way lower. It was like this every day for Luhan. With a quick blow to the boys groan and a few bitten limbs LuLu had escaped and ran to the place called home.
“Yah! You whore were you? I wanted dinner an hour. I had to order take out because of you. Are you trying to starve my family? No dinner for you” With a slap on the face he was shoved into the kitchen by one of his drunk Foster parents.“Mianhe.” He mumbled bowing before running up to the safety of his room. He hated himself for allowing others to push him around. He hated everyone around him for making his life hell—He wanted to end it, and the scars and cuts on his wrists were proof.
“Luhan?” The boys attention turned to his foster sister Sohee who sat on the floor by his door with a plate of food in her hands that she held out to him. Of course Sohee, the kindhearted girl she was, would find a way to sneak food to him.“Ani Sohee, You eat it okay? Here take this.” Luhan ran to his room to his closet. Inside he kept a box full of money he had saved up to escape. Giving the 15 year old the box he smiled weakly. “Leave Sohee, take baby Jiyong with you and go somewhere safe you hear me?” It took Luhan an hour to convince the girl to take the money and plan out where she would go. That night Luhan took his own life, he ripped open his wrist with a knife and had taken a whole bottle of pills.
When Luhan had awaken on his floor he screamed angrily that his suicide attempt didn’t work. He sobbed for a few minutes before he tried to attempt again. But when he saw his arms un harmed , and his dead body next to him reality sunk in. Luhan was joyful as he pranced around singing about his life as being dead, but after an hour the child like boy got lonely until he met Ms. Moon who took him in. Until he met Ms. Moon and her ghosts he never had a real family, he has been at the mansion for about a month.

PRESENT TIME
Luhan giggled as his friend Riku went on about the humans and what else he said. Luhan really liked RIku, he was like an older brother and helped LuLu with everything. He had a great sense of humor and always knew how to make people around him smile and laugh.
A sift sigh escaped his lips as he thought about the humans coming. He was actually terrified of them, he was scared they would find ways to hurt him and make his only life and hope a living hell again. Could he comitte suicide in ghost form? He made sure to make a mental note to ask Ms. Moon- so that if just in case he needed it.
“Ah, looks like we have person number one. Let’s see, he is a cutie.” He looked over the boy from the window analyzing him trying to see how close he could match the boys looks up to his personality he would see.
“Looks a bit angry and kind of distant.” He wandered out loud. ‘What do you think LuLu?” He asked his other ghost friend who had stopped singing and appeared next to him.
Luhan leaned aginst the window staring at the boy in the front of the mansion.
“He seems scary, but I think he will be nice. He looks nervous-I think that angry look you are seeing is a more of shock and excitement.” He stated staring at the boy intensely. “DO you think Ms. Moon will want us to come down and meet them all?” He nodded and with our a reply from the other he grabbed his coloring book and ran down stairs leading Riku.

Murasaki "Mura" Soon Ling

Riding in the limo,Mura couldn't settle down. She was antsy,she had to move around,that was until a sharp pain shot up her spine in a matter of seconds. She grinded her teeth trying to hide the pain of the gunshot wound. As it started to calm down it started to make her think about the hellish night that happened not even three months ago.

She was in her kitchen inside her small home she shared with her boyfriend at the time. All of a sudden she heard the door slam knowing exactly who it was,Elliott. Elliott being her boyfriend of five years who treated her worst than he did his dog but she put up with it because she thought she loved him. He started to yell,"Why isn't dinner done yet?! You been home all day and you haven't done crap! Get in here now,you litle pig!" She did as she was told knowing if she didn't she would pay one way or another. He grabed her by her long sleek ponytail,slinging her to the ground. After that something in her snapped,once she got up from their hard wooden floor,she slapped him clear across the face before trying to run out the door. When she started to run,she tried to open her car door,right as she felt a sharp pain shot straight through her back,letting wind in her body. "I-." She couldn't say anything,what was she suppost to say? The person she thought she loved just tried to end her life,just at that moment the world went black. The last thing she remembered was her small head hitting the hard cement walkway,hearing the footsteps of her ex fleeing the sceen. After that everything went blank,she couldn't recall a thing after and it really ticked her off because it could have been avoided if she just never fell in love. At least that was the way she looked at it.

She closed her hazel eyes trying to remove the thought from her memory,she just got out of rehab and this wasn't the time to cry over the past. As the car pulled to a stop,Mura could see a few other people maybe around her age standing outside. Once getting out the car she grabbed her bag from the back trunk and walked to the enterance way. She gave a sweet smile to the two others,Young-min and Eun. She put a piece of her pen point straight hair behind her pierced ear before speaking,"Hello,are we allowed to go in?" She looked at the two,honestly they didn't seem dangerous in anyway.(No offence,guys.) So,she calmed down a bit before looking down at her black heels and the rest of her outfit. She wore a navy and red dress that stopped at her knee with a pair of black booties. She wasn't big on dresses but for some reason it felt like a day to dress nice. As she looked at the house she was amazed,it kind of reminded her of her house but a lot bigger.

Tae-Hyun Jung

"You're the best!"
"Tae-Hyun oppa! Look at me!"
"Please come back with many more of your brilliant songs!"
"No! Don't go!"
"Oppa, saranghae-" And with that, Tae-Hyun closed the limo's door and scoffed. "Saranghae my ass," he muttered bitterly to himself. He shook his head and let out a frustrated sigh. He was done with people like that. They had no idea what they were talking about. He didn't believe in "love" anymore. At least not after what happened to him.

*Flashback*

Tae-Hyun walked up to the elevator and pressed the up button. A few seconds later, the doors opened and he entered with a bouqete of lilies and a ring box in his pocket. He presses the third floor button and took out his phone. There, he saw his beautiful girlfriend, Lee Chung-Ae. They've been dating for five years and although he would always change his screen saver, it had always been the same girl over and over again.
Ding! Tae-Hyun stepped out of the elavator and took a deep breath. He was nervous and excited at the same time. He was finally going to fulfill his promise to her and he couldn't wait to see her expression. He then made his way to Room 302 and knocked on the door. He made sure he didn't tell her he was coming because he wanted it to be a surprise.
Tae-Hyun was about to knock once more when he heard grunts and shuffling. Not only did he hear clothes rustling, he also heard... another voice? He pressed his right ear on the door and waited until he heard footsteps. He stoop up straight again and waited for the door to be opened.
"O-Oppa, what are you doing here?" Chung-Ae looked nervous. He was starting to think she was cheating on him but he knew he shouldn't jump into conclusions. After all, he did trust her. "Umm.. Please, come in." She opened the door wider and motioned for him to come inside. He looked her up and down and noticed that her hair was slightly messy and her clothes were wrinkled. It was seven o'clock in the evening and she didn't look tired at all so she couldn't have been sleeping. He was starting to feel suspicious but he'll have to worry about that later. After looking at her, he walked in and gave the lilies to her. Before a "thank you" could be heard he shot his left hand up to shut her up. Then, he kneeled on the floor with one knee and spoke up. "Chung-Ae. I knew you were mine the moment I laid eyes on you. And when we became a couple, I promised that if we made it to the fifth year, I was going to make you my wife. I care about you so much I'd even die for you. Chung-Ae, saranghaey-" Thud! Tae-Hyun stopped and looked around. "What was that?"
"W-What was what? Please continue. You were talking about love, y-yes?" She stuttered. Tae-Hyun ignored her and dashed into her bedroom. He knew that that sound had come from here. It's not like her apartment was haunted or anything. Someone else had to be here. He got on his knees and checked under the bed. Then he checked her bathroom to find no one in there. Finally, he opened her closet and froze in shock. Ther stood a shirtless man with nothing but a pillow to cover his family jewels. Angry, Tae-Hyun swung at the man and gave him a powerfull blow to his face. Hearing a small crunch from the man's nose, he rushed out of the room and pushed Chung-Ae against the wall. He was trying not to, but his eyes started to get blurry from upcoming tears.
"You know that what we had was something real. Oppa, you know I love you!"
"Chung-Ae, please tell me this is just some nightmare. PLEASE TELL ME I DID NOT JUST BUY THE MOST EXPENSIVE RING ON THE MARKET JUST TO GET CHEATED ON!" H douldn't take it anymore and fell on his knees sobbing. He's never felt so betrayed his whole life. "Chung-Ae... please tell me this isn't happening."
"Mianhae."

**Present Time**

"Tae-Hyun-ah, stop being so mean to your fans. Don't leave them a bad impression on your good-bye stage... Oh, and you got a letter. Says somethin' bout winning and going to a mansion. Better get ready by tonight." His manager handed him the envelope and he gritted his teeth, shaking his head in dissapointment. "You read it?" He knew how nosey his manager was and that's one thing he didn't like about her. The other was that she acted like she was his mother, always worrying about him and telling him what to do. He was his own person and he could handle himself just fine.
"Yeah, so what? For all I know, it could be some kind of threat and you wouldn't tell me shit 'cause you'd be worried I'd have you on lock down."
"Please, don't remind me," he rolled his eyes and looked out the window, watching some of his fan girls chase the limo but get tackled down by security.
--The Next Day--
Tae-Hyun wore a white tee with a black vest and long, dark faded jeans. He was wearing red, black, and white jordans imported from his cousin in America. He put his shades on as he got out of the limo. His body guards were about to come out when Tae-Hyun gave them a sign not to. Instead of getting his guards to retrieve his luggage, he got them from the trunk himself. He waved at the driver, telling him to "go ahead." He breathed in the fresh air and turned around to see one of the most gorgeous mansions he's ever seen. Taking a better look, he saw that there were three other people infront of the building and made his way towards them. He tapped the only male out of the three and did a ninety degree bow. "Annyeong. Jung Tae-Hyun imnida. Are we all supppose to just wait out here?"

Young-min Kwan

Young-min continued to stare off into the distance. He did freak out a little, thinking he saw one of the curtains in a window move and a figure there. He simply fell off the bag he was sitting on, still a little freaked out about what he thought he saw. "Okay...The lack of sleep is just getting to me again." He rubbed his eyes and nothing was in the window. He shook it off when he saw another limousine rolled into the drive, the driver taking the luggage out and putting them by him, immediately leaving after the person got out. She was really pretty, but he couldn't get a name down, that is until she spoke. "H-hello. Are we suppose to wait outside?" He fluttered his eyes a bit before a name came to him. "Eun Chai-sshi? I think you modeled one of my outfits last year, but I could be just over thinking..." He mumbled over his words like a little child. As more and more people came he picked up some of his bags. And because of the trash bag he had held and with the outfit he was wearing, he looked pretty homeless. "Aissh...No. I was just taking in the view...plus, and need help with my bags..." When one the guys tapped his shoulder, he jerked slightly, still not liking guys touching him as of yet. "But I guess we can go in..."

Taesu Cho

In no time, Taesu noticed that the group of one person had quickly increased to five people. She could already imagine them entering, picking out who would react the most and who wouldn't react at all. She guessed the angry looking males would be blunt about it and the girls a little more freaked out. Peering out of the window, she recalled Ms. Moon saying that six people would be staying at the mansion. She wondered if any of them would freak out so much that they would decide to leave the stay of a lifetime. Besides, a lover was rumored to wait around the corners of these halls, somewhere. Somehow, Taesu didn't believe it. Love wasn't real to her and even as a ghost she had no wish to find love. Or so she thinks.

The group of people were still a ways off from her to get a good look at their faces and judge them. She wanted to befriend them if they were staying at the mansion. Quickly heading out into the hall she saw Luhan and Riku, no doubt, together. She smiled at them, well mostly to Luhan. The little boy was only two years younger than her, but she felt as if he were more. The coloring book in his hand even suggested it. She couldn't help but chuckle. Taesu had squeezed his past from him once and she felt bad, but only a little.

"How do you propose we greet them?" she asked stepping closer to them. She was speaking mostly to Riku because he almost always spoke for the two of them. "I wonder where Ms. Moon is, too. I wouldn't want the humans to keep waiting. How about we open the door for them?" Before they could oppose, she floated down towards the front door and pulled it open, quickly stepping back so she wouldn't be touched by the sunlight. Now, only if the humans saw the door and came inside.

Eun Chai

Eun was pulled out of her thoughts when another limo showed up at the house. She turned her head to watch the female get out. When the female, Mura, smiled at them, she gave a shy smile back. Although Eun stayed silent when the girl asked her question. Eun wasn't trying to be rude, but she simply did not know the answer. She knew when the man, Young-min, answered her question, then the girl's question also would be answered. A bit later, another limo drove up to the mansion. 'Well, wonder how many other people will join us... there are quite a few people now,' she mused to herself.

She watched as a male, Tae-Hyun Jung, exited the limo. She bit her bottom lip while she waited for a reply. When Young-min said her name, she looked at him surprised. She found it odd he knew her name.

"I could have modeled one of your outfits, What's your name? I have an album of all the photos I've taken for photo shoots, you could look through it to see if you see one of your outfits. I'll probably remember better if you tell me which outfits or outfit is yours..." she told Young-min softly. She listened quietly to the rest of what he said. Only thing that distracted her, was when once again, a limo came towards the mansion. She watched the man, Zhao, walk towards them. Eun wondered why he stopped walking after a while. She didn't think about it much before she looked at the house again. Eun stretched slowly before grabbing as much of Young-min luggage as she could.

"I'll help you," she whispered softly. Eun then began to walk towards the house. Just when she was about to open the door, it opened by itself. Eun froze and took a step back away from the door. She took a deep breath. Eun turned to look at the others. She laughed and smiled nervously while she smiled.

"Umm, so, who would like to be the first one to enter the mansion?" she asked. Eun definitely was not going to be the first one to entered the mansion. Well, she didn't plan on entering the mansion alone if she had to be the first one. She was a bit freaked out the door opened by itself. She now had goose bumps and she looked ashen.

Sohee Park
Sohee Park ran a hand throughout her short hair as she leaned against the window of the limo- she enjoyed the peace and calm that surrounded her. Her life had grown to become hetic and the breaks she got every once in a while never seemed to displease her.
“We are almost there Miss. Park.” The driver stated quickly gaving a nod and 'thank you' from the girl.

FLASH BACK
“Alright Sohee, just pick the man you recognize.” Officer Choi stated as he led her to a big glass window where 12 men stood, all somewhat resembled the man that cause her life to become hell. The girl clutched her two brothers, DongHae and Jonghyuns hands as they said words of strength for her. Shania, Jonghyun’s fiancé and Sohees best friend stood behind her rubbing her shoulders. She had the people she loved most with her giving her strength. But her heart couldn’t feel the love she once held for them. She saw them as just people she knew her whole life. The man that took away her life and dreams. Her eyes scanned the men twice, but the marks she mad on her attackers face was clearly shown on number four. The man gave off an evil aurora as he glared through the window and what seemed like he glared into her soul. If looks could kill, Sohee would have dropped dead on the site. Her legs trembled as she pointed-fear clearly written across her face. “That’s him, Number four. He is the one that raped me.” Her voice trembled as Officer Choi nodded.
“We thought you were going to say him, he matched up perfectly with evidence, Don’t worry Sohee hell be throw and jail and you will never have to see him again. With that the men were cleared from the room and number four was handcuffed while he yelled. The threats he screamed at Sohee still haunted her this day, wither it being her nightmares or while she was awake. That day Sohee Parks heart had broken and she could love no longer.

PRESENT TIME
There was a soft sigh as she stared out the window and watched as the world passed by. She was able to get a break and give her family some peace. She had been living in a studio loft type thing that Shania and her brothers had bought thanks to Donghae’s boyfriend Eunhyuk who found the perfect place for her to live and continuing with the thing she loved most-sculpting. She hoped the mansion she would be staying at had an art room.
“Miss. We are here.” The driver said before he got out opened SOhees door and helped her get her luggage from the trunk. Clutching her hand bag she fixed her white tank top with black bats on it and her black and white leggings and her favorite pair of black combat boots. She made her way to where five other people stood and chatted. She bowed mumbling a hello. These must have been the other winners, she thought a she looked at them all. She probably stuck out and looked like an idiot compared to the others; A faint blush appeared on the girls cheeks at the thought. They people began talking and making their way inside, a boy with dark hair stayed behind giving her the hint he didn’t like people.

Riku Nagataka
"How do you propose we greet them?" she asked stepping closer to them. She was speaking mostly to Riku because he almost always spoke for the two of them. "I wonder where Ms. Moon is, too. I wouldn't want the humans to keep waiting. How about we open the door for them?" Before they could oppose, she floated down towards the front door and pulled it open, quickly stepping back so she wouldn't be touched by the sunlight. Now, only if the humans saw the door and came inside.
Riku smiled at the girl as she ran to the door before he could object, Taesu was a very nice girl. She put out a loyal strong leader vibe and always seemed to take care of LuHan, whom was much like a child.
“Don’t you think that will creep them out, I mean what door opens by itself?” He called after her and followed her as she went to open the door leaving Luhan to stare at them blankly. Riku snickered as the humans watched the door as he and Taesu watched. He hardly noticed Izumi and Jung-hwa who were talking and scheming on how to scare the humans. Looking around he wandered where Tsuki Mizushima and Ms. Moon where.

"Umm, so, who would like to be the first one to enter the mansion?" she asked. Eun definitely was not going to be the first one to entered the mansion. Well, she didn't plan on entering the mansion alone if she had to be the first one. She was a bit freaked out the door opened by itself. She now had goose bumps and she looked ashen.
Riku muffled his laughter as he peaked through a window watching the humans and noticed a black haired boy and a girl standing a few meters away from the others—Those two seemed to not want to interact with the others. He checked over himself making sure he looked somewhat presentable to the humans. He fixed his blonde hair that was a tad messy, he wore a black tank top with a black leatherjacket thrown over it, black pants and red and black shoes. It was something simple and comfortable to him.



LuHan Kwon

LuHan blinked a few times as Taesu and Riku ran off down stairs to where they were going to meet the humans. He really liked Taesu—she was like an older sister to him and she was very playful and a great leader.
“Hyung! Noona!” He Clutched his coloring book tightly and pouted as he walked slowly to the top of the stairs of the Foyer where they would enter. Sitting on the top so he could see them without being seen he continued to color and hummed to calm himself. Luhan was anxious and scared about the Humans. He tried convincing Ms. Moon to allow him to stay locked up I his room and only come out when they are sleeping because of how scared he was. But Ms. Moon insisted and assured him everything would be fine and that she really needed him to be there. As everything grew silent-besides Riku’s snickering from his hiding spot, he could hear the Humans talk about who wanted to go in first. Luhan fixed his tan and colored striped Bennie that laid on top of his head keeping his ears warm, and snuggled deeper into his blue jacket with yellow sleeves that looked like the ones you get from high school. A white graphic tee shirt laid underneath and was complimented by tight blue jeans and sneakers. Luhan adored Beanie’s and jackets , because he loved the feeling of being warm, and out of habit he like being covered—and they hid his body well. A sigh escaped his lips as he set his coloring book down with his crayons and hugged his knees tiredly.

Once Mr. Moon showed up he would go talk to the humans, Until than he planned to stay hidden. Even is Riku and TaeSu were there and calling for him he woukdnt go until Ms. Moon was there for his protection. She was like his mother he never had and he was like a lost child. The thin boy giggled at the thought and watched the other ghost, besides Tsuki and Ms. Moon whom were absent, talk about the humans and planned little games and trick on them.

Tae-Hyun Jung

The door opening by itself did not go unnoticed by the young idol. Of course, neither was the nervous look on the girl that was by the entrance. Tae-Hyun sighed and walked up to the door but before he put his foot inside the mansion, he stepped aside and bowed to the girl. "Ladies first." He wasn't trying to force her into something she didn't want to do because he knew she obviously didn't want to go inside first. He was just being polite. Although his mother didn't live to teach him his manners, his grandparents were.
Since no one had made a move yet, he sat down on the steps and paitently waited. He saw that another limo had come up in the driveway. He squinted his eyes to see who it could be. Then, his right eyebrow lifted up and he tilted his head to the side in confusion. He scratched the back of his head uncomfortably. He didn't want to be rude but he didn't know whether the person that had just arrived was a girl or a boy. He or she was either a tomboy or a very feminine guy. Tae-Hyun shook his head. I don't even know the difference between males and females now, he thought to himself.

Murasaki Soon Ling

Mure watched as the last person came up,she knew it was a girl. Just something about her made her seem not as manly as she looked. That and she tattooed many women who looked just like her,but if she was wrong she feel like an idiot.As Mura waited to ee if anyone was going to just walk in just as she heard a door open. Turning around,her mouth dropped open. "Ok,then. Anyone wanna go in frist?" She gestured towards the now open door ,she raised an eyebrow. As the others looked around she exhaled before taking a step towards the house. She grabbed her suitcase from the ground rolling it behind her. She kept her eyes open,there wasn't a strong enough wind to blow the door open so what did? She cleared her throat while entering the large and very beautiful house.She whisled and cleared her throat looking around. She could have swore there was a present in the room but she couldn't see anything or anyone. After a second she started to get a little freaked out,which didn't happen often,she walked out into the sunlight. She just leaned on the doorframe just in case something happened,she be able to see it but still get the hell out that house.

Young-min Kwan

Young-min suddenly felt angry, but sad that no one offered to help. He huffed and he tried to carry as much he could with his small weight and built. "May someone please help me?" His struggles made him look cute and adorable. He perked at Eun's reply. "Oh, the name's Kwan, Young-min. You wore my punk outfit, the one that had a plaid skirt with every neon color imagined?" He shrugged his shoulder and blushed, sheepishly smiling. "I don't think anybody would not remember something like that..." When the front door of the mansion opened, he did jumped slightly. He wasn't for those ghost stories or anything, but they still scared the crap out of him. "Um...Sure no one opened that?" When Mura leaned against the door frame, it made feel a little better at the thought. She seemed tough, unlike his low manly self, she made him feel safe.

Tsuki Mizushima

"YAWN!" Tsuki had just awakened from her nap. It was very refreshing. She got up from her napping position and went through walls, trying to hear all the voices of the other ghosts. Were the humans already here? The thought of the humans being her brought a smile to her lips. "Wooo! Are the humans here? Are they? Are They!" She screamed in her normal tone as she came up behind Izumi and Jung-Hwa, probably scaring them. She immediately started to twirl her side ponytail as she waited for the humans to come in. She was gonna have so much with them. She can tell them stories and play with them and talk, and other stuff. "Anybody know where Ms. Moon went?"

Eun Chai

Eun shifted her weight as she waited for someone to reply. Eun relaxed though as another limo distracted her. 'Well, six people now...' she thought to herself. Eun tilted her head. She watched when the person got out of the limo. Eun bit her bottom lip gently while she thought. After a few minutes, she decided the person was female. She felt pretty sure about her decision. She didn't think a guy would wear a tank top with bats, black leggings, and combat boots. If it was a guy, Eun would be careful when deciding what gender someone was. Well, when she couldn't judge if that said person was male or female.

She gave Tae-Hyun a friendly smile as he walked up to the door. Though, her smile faded when he stepped aside and spoke. She tightened her grip on Young-min's luggage. Eun understood he was trying to be polite. She swallowed hard while thinking. She would have gone in first, but then Tae-Hyun sat down. Eun didn't feel like he would follow right behind her. She took a few deep breathes. Eun was still deciding weather to enter first or not. She let out a sigh of relief when the female, Murasaki, entered the mansion. She gave Murasaki a thankful smile. Eun was calmer after Murasaki had walked in. Even if Murasaki walked out to lean against the door frame. Eun cleared her throat.

"So, do you think it is safe?" she asked Murasaki. Eun glanced down at Young-min when he spoke. She glanced at her luggage. Eun decided to get her luggage after helping Young-min bring his in. Eun did bring quite a bit of luggage. She wanted to mix and match her clothes. Also, because she had no idea how long she would be staying. Eun definitely didn't want to get stuck wearing the same clothes or the same type of style for too long. She nodded in respond to Young-min.

"Oh yeah, I remember that outfit, it was a very admirable outfit, it was cute. I remember the outfit. I don't really pay attention to people when modeling. Oh, and yeah, pretty sure no one opened the door...I think they would have showed themselves by now...they could be behind the door though..." she told Young-min softly.

Murasaki "Mura" Soon Ling
"So, do you think it is safe?" She chuckled and shook her head softly. "Sure,if you like the feeling of being watched." She smiled at Eun. "I mean,there is something wierd about this house,it's kind of like you feel someone there but yet,you don't see anyone in there." She knew it sounded kind of crazy and made her sound insane but if they wanted to go in alone then by all means go head. "But,hey maybe it's just my paranoid girly side coming out," She smirked and looked back in the open door. She cleared her throat and looked at her four inch heels. She leans on the door frame feeling sharp pain in her back. She grinded her teeth together and got up from the wooden frame. She coughed and looked at the others. "Alright then,i'll go in if at least two other people go in with me." She held up two fingers,she talked to them like they were all just her group of close friends. She never had a problem speaking to people or speaking her mind,which can be a huge problem at times so you might want to have thick skin around her at times.

Taesu Cho

Taesu grinned back at Riku who seemed to be playing along with her. If Riku was fixing himself, wouldn't that mean that the humans could see them? Taesu guessed and pulled the door open more, urging the reluctant group to enter. They would have to be living here anyways. She giggled as one of the girls talked about weird feelings around the house. Ghosts lived here, she thought and moved back so that she was visible to the humans, but not touching the sunlight. Taesu looked back at Luhan and made a friendly hand gesture to come forward. She knew the boy was afraid. Even if it was hopeless, at least now she couldn't say that she didn't try.

Her brown hair fell to one side and she greeted the humans with a smile. The female who spoke of weird auras and the feeling of being watched was the first one in her line of sight. The second was a taller male who almost looked irritant and blank. More people were behind them and a couple carried luggage. Taesu hoped that Ms. Moon wouldn't mind her allowing the humans to enter the house. Besides, it would be rude to just let them stand there with no idea what to do with themselves. They had won a stay at the mansion and Taesu almost had the feeling she should take care of them, like a good leader should.

"Hello, everyone," she smiled. "Please enter. Don't be shy," her voice was calm and energetic. At that angle, most would think she was human. Look who's wrong?

Sohee Park
Sohee could feel stares on her as she tried her best to act natural and blend in well. As the group began heading in the direction of the house she followed behind and stood behind a girl named Murasaki "Mura" Soon Ling if she heard correctly. The group continued to talk among themselves about how the house put off a creepy aurora—Honestly Sohee could care a less. She wanted to hurry up and get all the greetings out of the way and get some peace and quiet.
The blonde tomboy jumped when a girl with brown hair with a slight deep orange tint that curves outward at the tips appeared at the door welcoming. Sohee coughed slightly embarrassed about how pretty the girl is and on how pretty everyone around her was. She ran a fragile hand through her hair before dropping her eyes to the floor nervously. She had never been good with introductions and meeting new people.
‘here come the hard part’ ….

Riku Nagataka
"Hello, everyone," she smiled. "Please enter. Don't be shy," her voice was calm and energetic. At that angle, most would think she was human. Look who's wrong?
Riku chuckled as he peaked from behind the door with a smirk, he was sure they could at least see Luhan’s feet as he sat on the stairs like a child and his face the probably looked stupid as eh peaked around the front door. He assumed they looked human enough as him and Taesu smiled and welcomed them in.
“Please do come in you can set your things down here in the foyer so we can all greet each other-…” he trailed off mumbling about finding Ms. Moon.


LuHan Kwon
Taesu looked back at Luhan and made a friendly hand gesture to come forward. She knew the boy was afraid. Even if it was hopeless, at least now she couldn't say that she didn't try.
LuHan shook his head a few times before gaining a glare from Riku, who stood behind the main door. With a sigh and a pout the young boy scooted down a few steps and tried his best to control his shaking hands. He felt a bit embarrassed that he seemed like a huge baby about the whole think.
“Noona!” He yelled as she showed herself to the humans who stood outside.
"Hello, everyone," she smiled. "Please enter. Don't be shy," her voice was calm and energetic. At that angle, most would think she was human. Look who's wrong?
The boy face palmed himself as he scooted down a few more steps trying to get Taesu’s attention without the humans attention. He could see the group of humans up close and he chomped down on his bottom lip watching them for any sudden movements. Once one of them moved he was heading straight for his safe spot at the top of the stairs. He could see six humans- three girls and three boys…Well he could have seen four males and two girls but the blonde in the very back near a guy in black hair seemed TOO girly to be a guy. Plus LuHan can sense her ‘girl’ vibes. He giggled to himself at the thought before continuing to study the humans silently as Riku talked.

Ms. Moon

Hearing the commotion down stairs, Ms. Moon reappeared on the top of the stairs. She huffed very cutely and shouted at the other ghosts. "You guys didn't wait for me...I was supposed to welcome them first." She blinked, a certain blink where her brown eyes sparkled. The ghosts appearances experience a burst of light for a second before it went away. Ms. Moon giggled very lightly, but something was different. It was like it could be heard. And that giggle always meant something else had happened. She slowly made her way down the stairs and finally making her way in the doorway. She curtsied, her pink dress hugging her hips as she moved back to her usual stance. "Welcome humans...To my lovely home." She continued to smile her breathtaking smile and blushed lightly. She huffed again, blowing some of her hair out of her face and putting her hands on her hips. "Well, don't just stand there. There's plenty of questions that need to be answered and I can't exactly answer them with you guys outside." She turned her back and made her way to the living room before calling out to Jung-Hwa, knowing what he was up to. "Jung-Hwa! I know what you are doing, and don't even think about it!" She giggled once again at the sight of LuHan and the other ghosts. She always felt like a mother to the ghosts, she may have only known them for a year or two, but she still felt incline to call them her 'children'.

Young-min Kwan

Young-min huffed too, mad that no one was listening to him. He really did need help. He knew he was small and insignificant, but he wasn't that bad. He smiled slightly at the model and nodded. "It's okay, the outfit was a little too much and plus I just had started college, so it wasn't my best." He did this really cute half giggle half sigh after he was done talking that made him seem really adorable, of course if anybody told him he looked cute, he would disagree. He was still eerie about the whole door opening. He did hear distanced voices telling everyone to come in, but he didn't do anything. When he saw the burst of light and then there was a breathtaking woman beckoning them into HER mansion. HER? He bit his lip and his dark brown eyes widened as he saw other figures there. He literally almost fainted at the sight. Of course, his first reaction is...to curse in Korean. "Jegilal! Yulyeong? Nal nollineun geonya?*" His voice got higher on every word, making him seem girly and scared. He clutched the trash bag in his hands as he scanned over the ghosts. The one that caught his eye was a male with neutral multicolored hair in the black outfit. He blushed slightly when he found himself that he was staring and cursed to himself in his head. No! Don't think like that! Remember what happened last time... Remembering what happened, it almost brought tears to his eyes. His eyes watered just bit as he bit his lips again, turning slightly red. He tried to think of something different as he clutched the trash bag even harder. "Well, I had one question in mind..." He felt angry with himself for no reason. He sniffled just a bit before continued talking, stuttering slightly. "Anybody considerate to help me with my bags? I didn't mean to bring so much with me, but I have a fashion line that is due in month and I couldn't exactly ignore it." He huffed once again and took whatever he could with him, walking past Eun and Mura, along with that one ghost that almost perked his interest and another tiny looking one. He bowed to Ms. Moon, but still had a sad, but mad expression on his face. "Thank you for inviting us...You don't happened to have a studio I can put my fabrics in?" He tried to be brave with himself, but he was still a little scared and depressed. Oh how he loved for going to his room and cry even more for no reason. He subconsciously brought a sleeve to his face, wiping his eyes. He almost felt dizzy when he did so...Man, he needed more food and sleep. The bags under his eyes told everyone his insomnia. If he didn't get either of those soon, he was really going to faint.

[*Holy shit! Ghosts? Are you fucking kidding me?]

Murasaki Soon Ling
Walking back in with Sohee,the one she saw as the probably the coolest one walked in behind her. But this time they walked in a very pretty girl with a slight orange tint welcomed them. She smiled and could feel herself blushing a bit but not a lot. As Ms.Moon introduced herself,she could feel herself getting whiter and whiter before she almost looked like a ghost herself. But,she kept her cool and brave composure. As she walked father away from the open door she kept the others in her line of sight or in the corner of her eyes. "Ghosts.....great,just great." She said it under her breath because she didn't want to sound rude but it was really strange and honestly kind of scary. She looked around and broke the silence and cleared hr throat. "This is a very beautiful home you have here ma'am." She smiled sweetly and looked bak at the ground.

Taesu Cho

Taesu almost felt bad about opening the door to the mansion before Ms. Moon had arrive. Almost. She wanted to scoff at the woman for being so polite and lady-like. She respected Ms. Moon for allowing her to stay at the mansion, but sometimes her motherly nature bothered her. She wasn't someone who would easily pay attention to Taesu or look up to her has an idol since Ms. Moon almost considered the residing ghosts her family of lost children. Taesu didn't mind, just as long as Ms. Moon got it straight that she wasn't her child. She was what a mother should be; kind, caring, and thoughtful towards her children. The exact traits Taesu's own mother never had. Call it jealousy or anger, Taesu didn't even know. She just knew that Ms. Moon wouldn't stand to be controlled by her. And by nature, that was a no no for Taesu.

Ignoring the woman's increased politeness, Taesu did her best to smile at the guests. She giggled at the young man who cursed in Korean, reacting to the ghosts. I forgot how funny humans could be, she thought. Laughing, she looked back at Luhan and Riku. She wanted to take Luhan's hand and baby him into at least greet the people. But the humans were still planted to the front door, reluctant to enter their ghostly home. "The fashion studio is in the west wing of the mansion. The third door to your left if you go down this corridor," Taesu told Young-min, sweeping her hands as if she were the guide. We should just make them a map. "Though I would best suggest you all follow Ms. Moon to clear up any questions. Also, she should show you to your rooms. I hope you should settle down and then carry on exploring our wonderful home," as she spoke, her voice almost having the ability to trance, her brown eyes, gliding across to pass at each human's face, stopped at Murasaki's. Taesu's smile faltered slightly admiring her face and hair. It perked up immediately. "I am willing to show you all around," allowing the 'you all' to stand for Mura. Interesting. Than she walked on to follow Ms. Moon, coaxing the humans with hand gestures, like a mother to her group of children.

"Don't be afraid. We're just ghosts," she smiled, laughing on the inside. She hoped she made a decent impression on them.

Sohee Park
Sohee’s eyes popped out of her sockets as a burst of light appeared and then there was a breathtaking woman beckoning them into her mansion. “Omo! A ghost!” She squeaked loudly. "Jegilal! Yulyeong? Nal nollineun geonya?*" The girl laughed as a boy next to her cussed in one of her native languages- Korean.
“igeos-eunnongdam inga?*” She mumbled before she glanced at the girl who opened the door first and the boy next to her with different shade of blonde for his hair
“Thank you for allowing us to stay, this is a beautiful home.” She smiled as she looked around the house amazed.

Riku Nagataka
"Well, I had one question in mind..." He felt angry with himself for no reason. He sniffled just a bit before continued talking, stuttering slightly. "Anybody considerate to help me with my bags? I didn't mean to bring so much with me, but I have a fashion line that is due in month and I couldn't exactly ignore it.
Riku let a smirk appear on his face as he leaned on the door watching as the humans piled in. The boy, who Riku guessed was a fashion designer which he had no idea whom his name was, caught his attention. He was cute, but not like Riku would admit it fully. He could see the boy casting looks his way and that made him a bit happy that he had noticed him.
“Ms. Moon? DO you want us to introduce ourselves?” He asked following his ‘mother’ into the living room. Ms. Moon was very much like a mother to every one of the ghosts. Especially to the youngest, Luhan. Shaking his head he sat on one of the couches i=with a smirk as he watched the humans walk in.

LuHan Kwon

"Welcome humans...To my lovely home." She continued to smile her breathtaking smile and blushed lightly. She huffed again, blowing some of her hair out of her face and putting her hands on her hips. "Well, don't just stand there. There's plenty of questions that need to be answered and I can't exactly answer them with you guys outside." She turned her back and made her way to the living room.
Luhan perked up as Ms. Moon appeared, he smiled and jumped off the stairs and ran down them almost tripping down them all. He stopped at the bottom step shaking, ‘Go through all the people and you can be next to Ms. Moon, nothing could go wrong.’
“UMMA!” He yelled as he hurriedly walked past the humans and to the living room. He poked Taesu's cheek who was talking before continuing.He ignored the humans completely as he ran and attached himself to Ms. Moons hip and buried his face in to her side.
“I Don’t want them here.” He stated hiding behind her and sticking his tongue out at Riku who rolled his eyes and laughed. He noticed his older friend watching one of the humans with a smirk. Shuttering he continued to cling to Ms. Moon like a child would to his mother. He loved Ms. Moon and she was like his mother, no she is my mother.
