After a minute, Namjoon broke the silence. "All right, so how do we find them?" He looked at the others. They had no idea. All of a sudden, Hobie hears a noise. 

"Did you hear that?" 

"Hear what?" Yoongi said. Hobie started looking around. He opened the door to the closet and two rats came out. Hobie jumped. The others laughed. 

"Stupid rats. Almost gave me a heart attack" Hobie said putting his hand on his heart. 

"Hey be nice. They have been stuck in there for a while. You let them out." Taehyung said smiling.

"Right you can speak to animals. Oh, ask them if they have seen Connor." The others looked at him weird. "What? You never know." Hobie shrugged his shoulders. 

Taehyung kneeled down near the rats and started talking to them. He finally stood up. 

"So?" Jimin asked. 

"They said they have seen Connor. And others as well. There is a strange energy coming from the basement. That is why they left. They didn't want to be near it." 

"The basement?" That is where our practice room would be if it was our house" Jin said. Jin let out a sigh. "Looks like we are going to the basement." 

They slowly make their way downstairs to the basement. They could all feel the energy the rats mentioned. It was powerful but also very, very dark. As they entered the practice room, they could see 3 hooded figures before them. They didn't say a word. The 3 hooded figures slowly turned around. They were wearing black cloaks and white/gold masks. Before the boys could say anything, the 3 hooded figures took their masks and hoods off.

The man in the middle was older. He had a gray/white beard and short gray hair. He was round and fat. The man on the left was younger. A little older than the boys. He was handsome and muscular. He had short black hair. The man on the right had light brown hair with a grayish goatee. They just stared blankly at the boys. 

"Are they the Elders?" Jungkook asked. Technically, none of them has ever laid eyes on the Elders. All except one. 

"Yes they are." Jin replied. 

"How do you know Jin?" Jimin asked and turned to him. 

"I've met them before."
