Scene 1 - A Town In Fear
The attack at school spread panic. Parents keep children home, rumour swirl of a haunting, and whisper of the "Old curse" return.

Su jin (to herself) :
"Its me I am bringing this on everyone."
Scene 2 - Minho's dilemma
Minho walks alone at night. His reflection from chapter 5 appears again in a dark window.
Reflection (mocking) :
"sacrifice yourself, Minho. That's the only way to save them. Her fate is sealed – you can't protect her."
He stumbles back, pale and shaken.
Scene 3 - The Blood Ritiual
The group gather at the forest altar, guided by Eunwoo. He explaines that the witch feed on fear and blood.
Eunwoo :
"The curse always demands are life, it won't stop until it has one."
The group goes silent.
Mia (whispering) :
"....you mean one of us?"
Su jin voice breaks.
Su jin :
"No i won't let anyone die for me."
A runes on the altar suddenly ignite with red fire. A ghostly voice echoes :
Witch :
"Blood for freedom...or all shall perish."
Scene 4 - Suho's Recklessness
Enraged, Suho grabs a stone and cuts his palm, pressing it to the altar.
Minho (Shouting) :
"Take me and leave her alone..!"
Su jin screams, pulling him away, but the altar flares to life. Shadows lash out, wrapping around Suho. He gasps choking.
Su jin pushes her glowing hand against the runes. The shadow recall, freeing Suho, but Su jin collapses drained.
Scene 5 - Lisa's promise:
As Su jin lies weak, Lisa kneels beside her, holding her hand.
Lisa (tearful) :
"Don't ever do that, if anyone's blood is taken, it will be mine before yours! Do you hear me?"
Su jin weakly shakes her head.
Su jin (whispering) :
"No one's blood, not yours, not anyone's.
Scene 6 - Eunwoo's Secret :
Later that night, Eunwoo watches Su jin sleep while the other rest, Mia approaches him.
Mia (suspicious) :
"You know more than you're saying. What are you hiding.
Eunwoo's jaw tightens.
Eunwoo :
"...The curse doesn't just want her. It wants me too. My family's pact binds me to the witch. If she rises, she'll use me against Su jin.
Mia stares at him horrified.
Ending Scene - The Witch's Mark
Su jin wakes suddenly gasping. On her wrist, a new symbol appears, glowing faintly red.
Su jin (terrified) :
"...She's marking me."
