Chapter 9 - The Crimson Pact
–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
Scene 1 - Shadows in the mirror
Su jin wakes in her room, drenched in sweat.
When she looks into mirror, her reflection does not match – it's eyes glow red, and it smiles wickedly.
Reflection (mocking) :
"You are not fighting me, Su jin...you are becoming me.
Su jin smashes the mirror, trembling
Scene 2 - Growing fear among friends
The group meets at Mia's house. Su jin hides the new cracks forming along her glowing wrist, but Lisa notices.
Lisa (Worried) :
"Its spreading... isn't it.
Su jin looks away, unable to deny it.
Suho slams his hand on the table.
Suho (furious) :
"Then we need to end this curse now, before she loses herself!"
Eunwoo's calm voice cuts through the chaos.
Eunwoo :
"If we rush, we will only play into Witch's hand."
Suho glares at him.
Suho :
"You had rather watch Su jin burn?"
The room falls silent.
Scene 3 - Minho's Redemption Attempt
Minho kneels infront of Su jin.
Minho (Earnest) :
"I betrayed you once, I won't do it again. If the curse wants blood, take mine instead."
Su jin grabs his hand, shaking her head.
Su jin (Desperate) :
"No more sacrifices, we will find another way."
Scene 4 - The Pact
Mia opens the old dairy, new words appear in blood red ink.
"The pact of six hearts may delay the Witch's rise, but the bond must be sealed with blood."
Su jin recoils.
Su jin :
"No, I won't tie you all to this curse."
But Lisa moves forward, cutting her palm.
Lisa (resolute) :
"Then tie me to you, I had rather die cursed than leaving you alone."
One by one, Suho, Mia, Minho, and even Eunwoo follow, cutting thier palms and joining hands with Su jin.
Su jin trembles, tears streaming.
Su jin (Whispering) :
"You are all crazy"
Suho (smirking) :
"Crazy for you, maybe!!"
They press their palms together. A Crimson glow binds them in a circle of light.
Scene 5 - The Witch's fury :
Suddenly, The room shakes. The Witch's Voice booms like thunder.
Witch (furious) :
"FOOLS ! Your pact cannot save her. It only binds you all to her fate.
The diary bursts into flames. The circle of blood glows brighter, searing into their skin like a permanent mark.
Scene 6 - Su jin's loss of Control
Su jin gasps as power surges through her. Her eyes flicker white – then red. Objects in the room float and smash against the walls.
Su jin (screaming) :
"STOP – PLEASE, STOP!!"
Eunwoo rushes to her, holding her shoulders.
Eunwoo (firm) :
"Su jin. Look at me, you are not her. You are you."
Su jin's glowing eyes flicker – then fade. She collapse is into his arm, sobbing.
Ending Scene : The Crimson Pact
The group looks at their palms. Each bears a faint Crimson sigil – The mark of their blood pact.
Mia whispered, horrified.
Mia :
"We have tied our souls to her. If she fails.... We fails too."
The Camera lingers to Su jin's sleeping face, peacefull yet haunted, before fading to black.
