After a blissful night, they woke up with filled energy. Aespa had not realized that their enemy, Black Mamba, knowing about their locations from Karina's phone. After all, her phone was hack by the virus of Black Mamba.
She watched their movement through Karina's--mind, and phones, who had got her virus. "I'm going out," I said, "Okay," they said. I catch a cab to drive me to a mall near here. I try to synk back with my ae. I flip back my hair, my habit when I am nervous or scare. I can't feel our link at all. Is she all right?
I pay the cab with Croatia money. "Wow," this mall is huge. I explore inside the clothing section with my Americano drink. "Ugh, my leg aches," I spot a bench outside the mall with a splendid view.
I tried to synk again this time, "Karina, your back!" she said. Before I twist my head around, someone put me into a rag covering my face. I felt something was inside this rag. What did the Wattpad writer say? Chlorine? Chloroform? I blacked out.
Coldwater splashed through my face. I groan, "What the hell? Who is this? Do you need money?" I asked, "I need your connection," a dark voice, "Who are you?" I asked again, "Your beloved enemy?" that voice said. My blood turns cold. "No way, are you, Black Mamba?" I said, "BINGO! You are such a smart girl. I'd love it!" she said.
"Where am I?" I asked. No answered. 24 minutes later. They (her people) open my blindfold. My eyes turn wide. I saw many pictures of our ae and us hanging together.
"Surprise, do you like it?" she asked, "No, what are you doing with our photos?" I asked, "Can I admire your beauty?" she said. I scoff, "What do you want?" I asked, "Your mind. Let me control you, and we'll be the ruler of this both world!" she said, "Keep dreaming, there's no way you will control my mind," I said, "Now, I will," she said. "Don't come any closer! I warn you," I said. She keeps lean closer. She, I mean her people, injects me with a dark liquid. I feel my body moves like being paralyzed, and a black dot appears in my vision.

Beep beep beep *machine sound* I move my hand, "She's awake! Call the doctor," a sound similar to Giselle's voice, "Karina, can you blink your eyes?" asked a male voice--it must be the doctor. I blink three times.
Giselle lend me a water bottle, "What happens?" I asked, "You faint at the mall," said Heejin eonnie. What? Faint at the mall? It is clear-- I have been kidnap by her. The doctor called Heejin eonnie out and left me with Giselle.
"It's Her. Isn't it?" she asked. I nodded. "Giselle, what day is it?" I asked, "Monday, why?" she said, "Nothing," I answered. Why did time flies so fast? Right, I forgot at Kwangya, time goes slower than the real world. Real-world (Earth) 24 hours. Kwangya 74 hours. I know it's not logical on the human mind, but, for our ae, it's normal.
The doctor said that I must have more sleep and rest. It's true. Lately, I've been practicing on our upcoming album. We tried on 6' different genres on our new album. So, get ready for your wallet *smirk* This is so iconic. (Okay, we can cut that act)
"I'm fine," I show my built arm. Well, we four sit in our secret room. "So, I'll tell you my story--listen carefully, okay!" I said. I told them from A-Z. "How can we go to Kwangya?" asked Ning-Ning, "Through naevis," I said, "Naevis? Who?" asked Winter. I nudge Ning-Ning's hand, "I know! It's the portal keeper," she exclaims. She turns on her MacBook and starts doing her things. They discussed something but, my focus was direct into something as I went to a different realm on my mind.
I'm in the middle of a garden--my head collides with a lot of pink boxes fall from the sky. Isn't this belongs to the Red Velvet--Queendom? I think about a door. A purple-ish horizon appears in front of me, "Should I?" a force pushes me in. "Hey!" All I see is white and a black door. I heard a soft sound, "Enter the door," What? "Enter the door," "Find her," "The key," I open the door---it sucks me in like a vacuum.
"Don't they learn about electricity?" I grumble. I can't see anything! "Use your power," My power? I tried Spiderman pose, Doctor Strange pose, what else? No light appears. I clenched my fist in annoyance. A pink electric came out from my hand. It works!
I stroll around this dark room. Did I step on something? Keys with a different symbol. Heart, Moon, Butterfly, and Star. "Get out," "She's coming," "Hide it,"
Did I fall asleep? Oh my god, this is so embarrassing! I felt something on my wrist. "It's real!" I gasp. I show them the key on my wrist. [Why do I remember about Blackpink songs-Ice cream? Have the same thought?] I tell them about my dream. "That must be naevis," said Ning-Ning.
"How can we go to Kwangya if our ae can't sync with us?" asked Winter, "I can," I step up from them. "Hold on, step back, please," I warn them. My hand on the front, a purple horizon appears in the middle of the room. "Woah, daebak! Should we get in?" asked Winter, "No," said Ning-Ning and I together.
Now, how do we close this portal? We name this portal 'P.O.S' "Poof" the portal close--itself by a soft explosion (It safe, don't worry,)
We find out our specialties. Giselle, she got Xenoglossy. Ning-Ning, he got the E.d Hacker. Winter, she got Armamenter. For me, I have Rocket Puncher. For now, we're just learning and practicing using our specialty until we can control it well.
Ning-Ning does all the design kinds of stuff, and for me, I'm her assistant for today. I helped her put some ideas on our newest symbol design for our SYNK DIVE. "How about this?" I showed her my design. "It's amazing. I'll design a bit on it," said Ning-Ning--with her talented hands typing over here ad there on the keyboard and make the detailing.
I walk to the other, see their progression. Giselle is busy with a book in her hands. Winter is busy practicing her fighting skills. Therefore, I visit them to asked Winter to teach me some basics in fighting.
We go to our outdoor pool for practice; it is way safer than indoor. Briefly, paid attention to your enemy is the key to winning the fight and be focused. "Eonnie, punch the air harder--with energy!" she said. I punch the air once more. This time a sort of energetic feeling came out from my body. "Woah, eonnie!" Winter compliment, "Your hands--it's shining! Try hit this rock," said Winter, "What for?" "Just punch it," I punch it, and the rock wrecked into small pieces.
"I think our practice is enough for today, let's get freshen up," I said, "Yeah, can't wait to eat dinner," said Winter. Winter and I back to our room. "Ning-Ning, how's your progress?" I asked. She sits still on my bed with the laptop on her lap. "97% almost done, wanna see?" she said, "Sure," I said.
By the way, we're having steak for our dinner outside in a restaurant. It was good. We all enjoyed our dinner time together with all the stuff. As soon as we arrive at our stay, we all go to sleep earlier than we used to because tomorrow is a big day for us. I put the key safely inside my table and kept it super safe. (She put cockroach toys) Good night.
