The tension of the hide-and-seek game saturated the air, thick enough to choke on. Dae-Ho, isolated after the ammunition incident, waited behind a door, bearing the crushing weight of his team's silence. I, Gi-Hun, moved with the cold fury of a man seeking vengeance for what I saw as betrayal. I wasn't hunting just anyone; my focus was fixed solely on Dae-Ho. Discovering my former teammate, I let the knife catch what little light there was, its edge gleaming with lethal intent. My hatred was a heartbeat from finalizing the act, but Dae-Ho's voice cut through right on the brink of death.
