The camp, nestled at the edge of the forest, was already asleep when a group of teenagers dragged Yoongi to the shore. The sixteen-year-old didn't resist—he was used to beatings and bullying.

But today they decided to go further. "Have a bath, freak," one of them shouted, and a strong push in the back made Yoongi lose his balance.

He plummeted into the dark water, which instantly covered him completely. Yoongi desperately tried to surface, but his clothes were dragging him down, and the laughter from the shore only grew muffled.

Suddenly, a strong hand grabbed him by the collar and pulled him out of the water with incredible force. Yoongi was thrown onto the shore, where he began coughing violently, spitting out water. When his vision cleared a little, Yoongi looked up.

A man towered over him. Huge, broad-shouldered, wearing an old coat. His face was hidden by a white hockey mask. But the worst thing was the scars: one crossed his eyebrow and eye, another disfigured his lip, a third his cheek. The man looked like a monster from a forest legend.

The teenagers on the shore scattered, screaming. But the man remained silent. He slowly crouched down next to the trembling Yoongi and extended his hand. There was no anger in his eyes, hidden behind the slits of his mask. Only a dull, quiet weariness.

"Don't be afraid," his voice was low and hoarse. "I won't hurt you."
