“You’re going to stay here in the car, Pretty and wait for me”, V told Taehyung who he has put into the backseat, nicely tied up and wrapped in a soft blanket to keep him warm since the weather has gotten cold. His wrists were once again cuffed together, pressed against his chest and another piece of tape has been placed over his lips.

The petit boy shook his head frantically, not wanting V to leave him here all alone, especially when he was going up to his friends and Taehyung feared for his friends well being, because V was in such a bad mood already. He was unpredictable then. And Taehyung’s friends were going to fall victim to his behavior.

“Sh sh, don’t cry Baby, I’ll be fast and then we can go start our new life! So be calm and wait for me, can you do that Baby?“, V asked Taehyung, a firm undertone in his voice when he caught the blond’s chin between his fingers, bringing him closer until he could see the tears sparkling in Taehyung’s eyes.

The smaller quickly nodded, completely shrinking under V’s powerful eyes and making himself smaller until he was almost disappearing under the blanket, fearfully pulling his legs closer and clutching onto his shirt to somehow calm his fast beating heart.

“My good boy”, V cooed, leaving a kiss to Taehyung’s cheek who whimpered and turned his head away in defeat when he was released, hanging his head low to hide his tears from V. It was useless, V has tied him up tightly, not giving him any space to move and the car windows in the back were tinted black so no one could see him- or help.

V grinned, breathing a kiss to Taehyung’s forehead and getting up from the backseat, making sure all windows were sealed shut before he closed the door and locked the car, checking if Taehyung's small frame was visible from the outside. When he couldn't spot any sign of his precious Baby, he smirked and turned back to the hated apartment complex.

Taehyung on the other side ripped on his restrains, breaking into loud sobs that got muffled by the tape over his mouth. It was frustrating how helpless he was.

Taehyung’s situation was hopeless, he was so close to his friends yet he couldn’t reach them. Only stay in V’s claws, completely being at V’s mercy. Just like the reflection has planned.

But he didn’t think of Jungkook and his reflections and his friends since he has deemed them unimportant to his plan. But never underestimate the power of friendship, especially if you’re standing alone.

°°°

Namjoon and Yoongi indeed found Taehyung in the back of the car they saw halting in front of the apartment complex, just like they have hoped. Breaking into the car was surprisingly easy, even though they had to ignore multiple stares towards them.

They found Taehyung tied up and crying, his eyes red and puffy while he was hysterically sobbing into the tape roughly taped over his mouth. “Tae! Oh my god, we finally found you!“, Namjoon exclaimed relieved while Yoongi quickly unfolded the blanket and undid Taehyung’s restrains whose blond hair was messily hanging into his puffy eyes.

Once the tape came off, he started to cry out their names, hugging Namjoon who carefully pulled the still sobbing boy out of the car. The few bystanders who have watched them, phones in their hands to call the police but halting upon hearing the two men calling out a name in worry, were now watching how the two pulled a small boy out of the car who was clinging onto the taller of them.

“Stop looking at us like we did something illegal, we just got our friend back from his kidnapper”, Yoongi seethed, clearly not having any of the staring people around who gasped and started whispering amount themselves while Namjoon picked a shaky and silently sobbing Taehyung up to quickly bring him away from the car.

Taehyung tightly clung onto Namjoon, hiding his puffy face in the crook of his neck. "We're so glad you're fine, Tae", Yoongi said while they hurried back into the building while Namjoon mumbled calming words towards the hiccuping boy. "Kookie, where's he?", he sobbed out, trying to calm his sobbing down yet his tears continued to run down his cheeks and his friends sighed before stopping in their tracks and hugging Taehyung.

"He's alright. He told us everything, which was like crazy shit. But we saw that guy, his reflection? Yeah", Yoongi said and Taehyung looked up with wide surprised puppy eyes. "R-really? D-did Jeongguk try to h-hurt you?", he asked with a thin scared voice yet the two others surprisingly shook their heads. "N-no?", Taehyung asked, shuffling in Namjoon's arms.

"He helped us trick V into coming here", Namjoon gently explained towards Taehyung, walking into the entrance hall while Yoongi walked up to the receptionist, requesting a private lounge room which was possible in the apartment complex since it was expensive. "Y-you planned this?", Taehyung whispered and nearly broke down when Namjoon nodded.

"Yes, TaeTae. We just knew that wasn't you and we were right. You'll stay with me and Yoongi Hyung while the others take care of him. Don't worry, they'll send him back to the mirrorworld where he can't hurt you anymore", Namjoon said and receiving a soft squeal from the exhausted blond in his arms.

"It's over? H-he's going back?"

"Yes, Tae. V won't hurt you anymore."

°°°

When V walked into the room, door slamming harshly open behind him, he was already annoyed to be in Jimin's and Yoongi's shared apartment, just wanting to go back to his Baby. His time was running low, he knew it so he wanted to use every single second with his Baby before getting back with him into the mirrorworld, trapping them both inside.

One final meeting with Taehyung's annoying friends and V would be free to go. 

Only with the difference that they have been waiting for him.

The door was suddenly shut and locked, and when V turned around he saw one of Taehyung's friends, Seokjin standing in front of the door and putting the key into his pocket. "Hello imposter", Jin said and V grew mad at that.

Just when he wanted to lunge at him, he was dragged backwards, a strong hand wrapping itself around his neck. His head snapped upwards and V looked right into the annoying face of Jungkook's reflection, the original standing a bit further away from Jeongguk.

"Hello little tiger. It's time to go home with me", Jeongguk purred.
