CHAPTER 23
To the most beautiful moments in our lives Pt. 2
Hearing him tell you what happened then, your tears couldn't help to drop.
"She never came back, and I couldn't tell my parents. I had seen her final hour," he told her, "My parents were devasted and decided to adopt tae... I couldn't – "
"I couldn't get over how she had never come back because I had let her hands go... so I had made sure Taehyung was never going to slip, but of course, I fucked up yet again."
Before you could say anything, a familiar sound of cursing could be heard.
"You sure haven't changed," Hoseok commented, "With that mouth of yours, I'm surprised societies can tolerate you."
Yoongi, who saw red, marched to Hoseok, throwing a feisty punch before quickly dragging you away from him.
"Yoongi!" you shouted.
"Anne... thank god you're okay. I know you're not that stupid," he said, and you couldn't help to glare at him. "We need to take care of Seokjin's."
"Here, I thought we were cool, Anne... your friends are aggressive." Hoseok wince.
"Yoongi, stop hitting him. We're coming back to help."
"Oh... now he wants to help." Taehyung scoff.
Hoseok stood up, "unless you want Seokjin dying, you better get going."
It took a while to find Jimin's old office. You had thought you'd be welcomed with a standard room, but it was dark instead. You were about to step inside before Yoongi pulled you behind.
"Stop..."
He then pointed to a bit button below the door.
"Those sensors are for something. If we trigger it, it will do something."
Yoongi was about to do something before a ringing voice could be heard.
"Min Yoongi! My favourite brother," Jungkook's voice booms out, "You smart motherfucker, I would have it if you kept your mouth shut!?"
"Your right, hyung... you want it so bad, right?" The lights turned on, and a door, in the end, had appeared. "What you need is in the cupboard. Come find the key."
"The key inside there, isn't it?" You timidly asked. Yoongi and Taehyung didn't want to answer, but a sudden groan alerted you as you saw Seokjin's eyes fluttering.
"Seokjin?" You asked. You all circle Seokjin, who is still trying his best not to close his eyes again.
"Don't you love a little bit of a game?" Jungkook, sitting on the monitor, was gleaming with happiness. You were weak, as he had thought. This is the only way for you to realise his love for you.
He will make sure you stay. He just needed to play his games right. You were naïve. You will fall back in his arms. Like you used to, don't you like that?
"I am giving you a choice to let you all go, of course, once again! I want Anne to stay, my love. You and I will need a bonding time." He chuckled.
"Over my dead body," Taehyung seethes.
"Of course it is! It's fun when blood can be poured inside this house!" Jungkook claps, "Isn't it exciting? How bout you step inside the room? Don't you need what you came for?"
No one had answered.
"I'll go," you whisper. This is it. There's no way out. Jungkook wanted you. He will not pull anything funny as long as you play his games. His sole reason was to get you away from the others. It was simple.
"No."
"Yes. Yoongi, you know what he wants." You try to reason.
"And what? You're going to let him win?" Taehyung said. He looks ahead before he sighs, "I'll go. He's not going to do anything, I promise you."
"No... Tae – "
"So, what is your choice?" Jungkook's loud voice resonates throughout the room. He was getting impatient. All those quarrels, those familiar quarrels. He hated that. He didn't like people fighting. He wanted them to make a choice.
And he was going to make them. Suddenly he turned on the speaker, and a ringing sound could be heard. Jungkook hand's trembles. It feels like ages since he had turned on those ringing sounds, the sound he had grown up listening to. Those awful ringing voices.
Shut up, Shut up, Shut up, Shut up, Shut up
Everyone was quiet. It was the sudden choice of death. You are here to pick which of your friends will live or die. Couldn't there be any more choice given to you?
"No one?" Jungkook's teasing voice, "Oh... come one, you like playing with death! You all will jump in the second you see one!" Jungkook chuckled.
"Why? Do you realise how serious I am when I tell you all death will come your way?" Jungkook scoffed, looking at the monitor. He was back in the control room, seeing the four inside.
Pathetic, Pathetic Pathetic Pathetic, Pathetic Pathetic
"I'll go..." a weak voice had voiced out. You looked back to see Seokjin trying to stand up.
Taehyung, who saw, then asked Seokjin to sit back down.
"We came here for you. If we made it alive without, all of this will be in vain."
"I hold no more will to live if I can see her alive," Seokjin pleads, "It's either you or me, and we both know that you have a better chance of surviving. He wants Anne, and I'm not giving him a choice."
"Seokjin..." Taehyung held him down. They had just rescued Seokjin and bandaged him quickly when everything crashed. It's true what they say. A human conscience could be a big downfall. But who could do such a thing? After knowing Namjoon had thrown himself to distract Jungkook a while ago.
If there's a chance they could save each other, what's there to lose?
"Get out of my way," Seokjin begins walking to the door. Jungkook, who was starting to feel giddy over the action, couldn't help to feel nervous.
But before he could walk to the door, Seokjin collapsed in pain. He had whizzed.
"We're getting out of here alive, Seokjin, all of us." Yoongi promise.
"Jeon Jungkook! Face us like a man, you coward! How could you hide behind the shadows?" Yoongi had provoked.
"You fuck off!" Jungkook said, "You're all talk and no bite! Isn't that what you taught me? Fine, this time, I will." Suddenly a gun is pointed at Taehyung, and he is shot in the abdomen. Yoongi, who realised what was happening, dodged the single bullet that had passed.
"You were always so slick," Jungkook giggled, "Alright then, I'll give you two choices. You let my love and I go, and I'll keep you all alive!"
"Not a fucking chance."
"Then I guess you pick one of you to die! Come one time ticking! It seems like taehyung is ready to pass out!" Jungkook scoffed, "No fun... since when are you afraid of a little gunshot Taehyung?"
