....

In the middle of the desolated highway, a siren was ringing wildly. Lights from the taillights of a car were flickering on and off while the doors were wide open. Bodies of two policemen lay beside it in a pool of their own blood.

A tall man in his thirties stood there, watching the bodies. He had killed countless people for the sake of his image and now that his reputation was tarnished, he no longer needed to hide his bloodlust. Raising one bloodied hand, he fixed his spectacles.

How did his life turn upside down? Only an hour ago, he was the most influential pediatrician in the country. People marveled at his skills and even called him god-like. He was their savior, the one who could cure any ailment. It was his destiny to be great.

Yes. He was supposed to be great, no, the greatest of them all. But in a matter of minutes, his life turned from great to that of a fugitive. He had tricked the officers who were escorting him and killed them with their own guns.

"It's all Doyoung' fault!" Danny whispered. "She took my son away from me and now, she's ruining my life! If only she had not blabbed to that bitch of a detective!"

Now he knew why the Hwang's were getting close to his family. He fully understood their intentions and was determined to kill them all.

Starting from their daughter.

"Let's see if my wife and that girl can avoid me anymore," he said in a menacing tone. Suddenly, he let out a laugh. An egomaniacal laugh which resonated throughout the cold, empty road. It was his lucky day. All his enemies were under one roof and he could kill them all after he retrieved his son, Siwan.

"I'm coming for you, Doyoung!" he swore. "Your husband is coming!"

Danny let out another laugh, no longer hiding behind his mask. He had taken off that facade of niceness and was embracing his inner monster which was about to wreak havoc.

….

Doyoung sat vigil next to her son's side, worried about him. The doctors stitched him up well but he was still unconscious. She was dry eyed and alert by even the slightest sound.

She was not at all surprised by what Danny did. It was as if a part of her knew that he was going to do something vile someday. What she regretted the most was the fact that it took her so many years to expose him.

Doyoung tried to call Gayoon who was still at the police station but her phone was dead. No doubt that Gayoon was busy dealing with Danny's case. Then a thought occurred to her.

"Jina is here too," she realized. Since Siwan was still asleep, she decided to go and check up on the little girl. It was the least she could do for Gayoon who had to leave behind her own sick child to save Siwan.

Luckily, Jina's ward was right next to Siwan's. She knocked on the door. To her surprise, it was opened by a man in his sixties. He looked a lot like Hwang Minho so Doyoung guessed that the man might be related to the Hwang's.

"I'm Siwan's mother," she explained. "I wanted to check up on Jina."

"Oh," Junho said, stepping back. "Come on in."

Jina was wide awake, drinking water when her eyes fell on Doyoung.

"Aunty!" she cheerfully greeted her. Doyoung was amazed at how happy and optimistic the girl was despite her condition.

"Are you alright?" Doyoung gently asked. "How are you feeling now?"

"I don't usually stay sick for too long!" Jina chirped. "I'm feeling better already! They just won't let me eat yet."

She pouted a little, disappointed that she was not allowed to eat. Jina was craving homemade food, especially the spicy cakes her mother made. Doyoung patted her cheek but she was a little sad.

"I'm sorry," she apologized. "For what my son did. He's very ashamed as well."

"That's okay!" Jina said with a wide smile. "It's all boats under the bridge!"

"Water," Junho corrected her.

"I'm drinking water already!" Jina claimed, misreading his correction. Junho rolled his eyes. At that moment, another man barged into the room. Doyoung frowned at the funnily dressed man. He was covered in beads and wore shabby red clothes. The man looked like he was in his fifties as well.

"That's my business partner, Shinjin," Junho said. That was partly true. Shinjin was one of Junho's partners in exorcism and he was investigating the strange happenings in the hospital. He slightly bowed at Doyoung before turning to Junho.

"We need to talk," he said. "Now."

"I can't leave Jina alone!" Junho pointed out but Doyoung spoke up.

"I'll take care of her," she reassured him. "I'll be here for a long time anyway since Siwan is also admitted-"

"What happened to Siwan?" Jina asked, feeling shocked.

"He...he had a little accident," Doyoung lied. "But he's fine."

Jina did not speak for a while. "Old man, you go do your work," she said. "I wanna visit Siwan."

"But-" Junho began to protest but she shook her head.

"I want to see how he's doing!" she insisted. "And it'll be easier for Aunty Doyoung to look after both of us. Please!"

Junho could not refuse his granddaughter when she made the cute puppy dog expression at him.

"Fine!" he conceded. "Go on."

Doyoung helped Jina get out of bed and carried her towards Siwan's room. As soon as they were gone, Junho turned to Shinjin who was a shaman and exorcist.

"What is it?" he asked.

"I've investigated the happenings in this place," Shinjin said. "This...this isn't a regular spirit. The thing which is haunting Kang Danny, is a poltergeist."

"A poltergeist?" Junho frowned. "How come? I've never encountered a poltergeist before!"

"They're born from intense emotions," Shinjin said. "Could be rage, hatred or even love. When some people die under gruesome circumstances, the feeling of hate and anger remains. Also, if someone dies but leaves behind an intense passion or love, those feelings can also remain."

"So when those feelings remain, they start to accumulate. The more the hate, the more powerful the poltergeist becomes and once formed, it'll lose its sanity. It'll kill every person whom it hates. But if born from a positive feeling like love, then the poltergeist is friendly and can even communicate with others. They might even help their loved ones."

"I'm guessing we're not looking at a friendly poltergeist here," Junho winced.

"No," Shinjin replied. "The poltergeist in this hospital is unusual. It;s not made from one spirit but several. Danny's victims have joined together to form one single entity. It was their shared hate which created this very powerful being and normal exorcism won't work. They'll target Danny till the end of the world."

"Where's the poltergeist?" Junho asked.

"It's base is in the boiler room downstairs!" Shinjin exclaimed. "We'll have to purify it for now. Hurry! We don't have time!"

The men rushed out of the room towards the boiler room, hoping that they would not be too late.

…..

As soon as Jina entered Siwan's ward, she saw that Shinho was sitting next to his brother. His lips curled into a smile when Jina approached them, followed by Doyoung.

Siwan was awake now but he did not look at Jina, too ashamed to face her. Jina, on the other hand, had already forgiven him for the prank.

"Stop fretting over it!" she told him. "I'm fine! But you don't look good at all."

He was heavily bandaged. His eyes were swollen and black from the abuse while his neck had several fingerprints on it. The state of his body was not good and it was a miracle that he made it out alive. She glanced at Shinho.

If only he was alive…

"Jina, can you tell him something from me?" Shinho requested. "Tell my brother not to think of the bad things. He should think of the good things and become happy. If he stays happy, then the people he cares for will also be happy."

Jina cleared her throat and told Siwan, "Don't worry about the bad things. Think only about the positive things so that people you love will also be happy."

Siwan did not reply but merely nodded. He felt a little lighter after hearing Jina talk and gave her a small smile.

"Please tell him that he's not like our father," Shinho added. "And...and that he'll make a very good person someday. He'll be kind and caring."

"You're not like your father," Jina interpreted. "You'll be a kind and good person."

Siwan looked up when his mother patted his head. He felt immense guilt towards her as well. She was suffering simply for his sake.

"I want to become a doctor too," Siwan stated. "I know my dad always pushed me to be one but at that time I hated it. He was forcing me to become one. But now…"

He took a deep breath and said, "I want to help people. I don't want another Shinho to die. Ever."

Doyoung was teary while Jina cheered.

"If I have more siblings, I'll bring them to you, Doctor Siwan!" Jina promised, flashing a thumbs up. Beside him, Siwan was also smiling widely, happy that his brother was growing up. He was about to touch his brother's cheek when there was a loud knock.

"That might be the nurse," Doyoung said, reaching for the door. "She was supposed to check up-"

She opened the door and froze.

"Hello, wifey," Danny said with a manic smile. "I'm home."
