"How about you come with me!" Beomgyu smirked.

"But-" Kai stopped when Beomgyu looked at him with furious eyes, probably asking him to 'SHUT UP BEFORE I MAKE YOU'.

"Alright! I'll show you how it's done." Y/n said over confidently and walked outside.

Beomgyu followed Y/n and Kai decided to stay in the cave and pretend that he doesn't know anything.

After walking for 20 minutes Yn asked. "So is this the end of the Goblinorest?"

"Yeah. This is the closest end to the Goblinorest. Do you see that stone? We just need to go till there. Wanna race?" Beomgyu asked.

"For Sure, count of 5!"

"Okay. 1... 2..."

"5!" Y/n shouted and ran away. "I WIN. YOU LOSE."

As Y/n was running. She hit her head to an invisible force and fell way behind because of her speed. Beomgyu walked towards her constantly laughing.

"Now you see? I told you we can't! From where do you get such lame dou- Y/N! Wake up!!! Are you alright??! Hey, get up! " Beomgyu moved an unconscious Y/n. Y/n wasn't moving. Beomgyu checked her pulse which was falling and her breath stopped.

"Y/n!! Get up!! Y/n!!!" he touched her face.

"AHHH" She shouted and got up. Beomgyu started laughing. Y/n pushed him. "You idiot! Why did you give me a shock???"

"All these kid pranks don't work on me." Beomgyu started to laugh knowing Y/n was pranking him.

"I already got hit by some invisible wall and now you gave me a shock and you are also laughing at me. You are so mean!!"

"Thank you! I already know! I'm the most mischievous goblin here."

"You could have just told me. Not get let me hit by the wall. Energy waste."

"That'd be no fun. See, now you won't ask dumb questions next time. "

"Anyways, why did you want to go out?" Y/n asked getting up and cleaning the dirt on her hands. Beomgyu's smile disappeared.

"Nothing. Now, let's go back to the cave or others will be mad at us." Y/n nodded and started to run about again. Beomgyu laughed and joined her.

"So, someone was trying to get away?" she darkly chuckled in the void of darkness as the light denied penetrating the palace. 

"Taehyung, my boy. How is your grandmother, Patricia doing?" Taehyung growled at her. She chuckled and continued. "And... Lidiya?"  

Taehyung looked up at her. "Li-Lidiya?" tears started to form in his eyes.

She villainously chuckled "I've kept Lidiya safe with me for the past 11 years. Just the same-"

"S-she is with you?? Give her back to me! Give her back!" He shouted trying to free himself from the grip of the iron locks and the guards. "I WILL KILL YOU!" He shouted in anger. 

His eyes turned completely red. She came closer to him and put her finger on his cheek. She made a deep cut on his cheek. "Try. I am right in front of you." he hissed and growled at her.

"Don't touch Taehyung!" Lisa shouted. The others looked at them in horror, unknown about what was going on. 

"Oh, so miss lover girl is to the rescue? I see." she laughed again.

"Did he ever tell you about Lidiya? Or he didn't?" Lisa looked at Taehyung as she smiled under her mask taking her majestic seatback.

"W-who is L-Lidiya." Lisa asked Taehyung.

"I'll tell you. I was gonna tell you!" Taehyung explained.

"Who else do we have here? Jung Hoseok dear, how are mom and dad? Oh, and Nataliya? How is she doing?" 

"Stay away from my family! Who the hell are you?" J hope shouted in anger.

She continued, ignoring his question "Did anyone tell this to you? Your lovely little sister is on her way to the snowdrifted Dark Mountain, heading to the tallest east cliff, in search of her wonderful brother. Aww, what a sweet bond! But, what if a group of evil cornish pixies attacks her, and she loses her balance, falling to her death."

"NO! NO! STAY AWAY FROM MY SISTER!" He struggled in fear of losing his sister. 

"What are you getting by doing all this?" Lizzy shouted at her. 

"Oh my pretty Yin's Guardian of Earth, Lizzy, didn't you still tell Taehyun, 'your love'," she quoted in the air "about why you were running away from him, all this time? The poor little boy was so worried about his true love." She laughed again.

"W-what does she m-mean?" Taehyun shuttered at his sentence and looked at Lizzy, who looked away. 

"WHAT DOES SHE MEAN?" he shouted at Lizzy who just looked down.

"Now, one of my favorite ones... Second guardian of water. I was so happy to know he is also here, after all, he is a very valuable asset to me. He is basically my key to control- WHERE IS HE?" she shouted at the guards. 

"We've got everyone here, my lady." She burned the one who answered her and looked at all of them. "Two are missing!!! I want them here! Princess of Nethiloc and the second guardian of water! They are missing! I want them now!! Search where are they hiding in the castle! They anyways can't get out." she ordered.

"The ice princess has left the Goblinorest, little does she know, what awaits ahead."
she whispered in the midst of darkness.

"What next??? I don't have a key!! We are going to get caught if we don't get out fast. It will all be a waste!" Robert spoke touching the dark black gate covered in webs protected by the emblem of snakes, implying the venomous nature of the Palace to kill its residents, slowly yet painfully.

"Remember what Lily said??" Jisoo asked.

"The key to the lock you see next is the test of your knowledge and trust in each other?" Robert repeated.

"Yeah!"

"But what is that supposed to mean???" he asked confused.

"I- I don't know!" Jisoo spoke confused.

While Robert's back touched the huge doorway as he slid to sit down. "If I die today, I am just happy that my love is safe out there. I hope she finds someone good." he touched his head to the gateway and closed his eyes.

Jisoo sat beside him, "Whatever happens, my last prayer to God is to keep my father and hobi safe. He never made me feel just like an ordinary book worm." she touched her head to the gate.

(Author: I'm the God 😎
Jk: Shameless, you are the Devil-
Author: WHY YOU ALWAYS? 🙄😒😒
Jk: 😌😌😌 My wish.)

"They will be fine." Robert smiled at her and assured her. "Even if the doorway kills us today, our death will make the others furious to take an action. It won't be a waste." she nodded.

"I honestly was scared of you guys." she chuckled "but you guys are not that bad, in fact, you all are really good."

"Well you too, I thought you wanted to kill our prince. He is a really good person." Robert explained.

"Yeah. So is Jungkook. I trust you."

"Me too. If we survived. Let us all be friends." Robert smiled.

"Yeah! It would be fun!" she smiled back.

The gate behind them started to move. Robert pulled Jisoo away from the gate.

"Don't tell me, we just had to say 'I trust you' for the door to open." Robert mocked and was about to walk through when Jisoo stopped him.

"Wait." She picked up a stone and threw it towards the empty entrance of the doorway.

"What?" Robert weirdly stared at the stone. After seconds of falling on the other side. The stone turned green and then was set on fire.

"But rocks can't burn-" Robert looked at it.

"This is a layer of 'Venenum venenatissimum' it can poison and burn anything," Jisoo explained.

"How will we go to the other side??" Robert asked.

They heard the guards moving around and hid in a Corner.

"Look for the other two! If we don't find them! We will get into trouble!!!" a guard told the other two guards. They got split and 2 of them walked away. One guard walked down towards where Jisoo and Robert were hiding.

"Dang it! He is coming here." Robert whispered. Jisoo's face had the fear clear.
