After the laughing scene Jungkook went back to being serious as his eyes followed the boy. After following him around they discovered a lot about the evolved boy.
They found out he has super speed and invisiblity as well as fast healing. But they got even more shock when the boy duplicated a high level core and what looked like enhancing occured before the boy swallowed the two cores.
"I guess he's out here trying to find cores so he could evolved some more." Jin muttered as he watched the boy moving his body around. Probably trying to see what new abilities he had gained.
"Yeah and I won't be surprised if he's as strong as Jungkook or maybe even more stronger." Yoongi said as he too watched the boy's every move.
"How old do you think he was turned?"
"Judging from his looks probably at 20. As I've read from informations gathered by old hunters, evolved zombies don't rot nor age. When they are bitten at the age of 18 they stay the same for the rest of their lives. However they can't talk so they can't communicate with us but if they consume more and more powerful cores it might be possible for them to talk with us." Hoseok explained as he typed away on his handmade computer.
"And I thought Namjoon's the living computer here." Jimijn joked making the others chuckle. Indeed Namjoon was their living computer but Hoseok is also smart.
"I'm just stating facts and what I've learned from Hunter Lessons Chim. Now are we going to coax him to join us or just watch from afar?" Hoseok added before dropping the main reason they are following the boy.
"We don't even know if he's harmless to us or not." Jimin said as he watched the boy with doubt.
"Seeing as he might be the one who saved the Hunters a few weeks ago then he might be really helpful for us. And since he is technically a zombie he can go to places we can't without being attacked."
"You have a point there.... So who's gonna talk to him?" All heads turned to Jungkook who was sitting casually eyes still stuck in the boy outside.
"We don't need to vote guys. Kook will be the one to talk to him." Hearing his name Jungkook looked at his friends who were giving him looks.
"Huh?"
"Yoongs will be landing somewhere safe while You, Chim and I will go to where the boy is. We can try to communicate with him and maybe asked him to join us." Jin said as he pointed at a clueless Jungkook.
"Why me?" Jungkook whined.
"Because you're cute and he might take a liking to you." Yoongi joked making Jungkook punch him lightly on his shoulder.
"Okay enough. Joon find us a safe spot for landing." They all got ready to go outside. Placing every chosen weapon on their bodies for extra safety. They didn't want to be attacked out of no where. Sp it's best to be prepared.
Once Yoongi landed in a slightly hidden part of the ruined forest the others quickly got out.
"Okay just like I said earlier, Kook,Chim and I will be the ones to go after the boy. Hobi, Joon and Yoongi will guard the ship."
"Kook watch over Jin for me. Make sure he doesn't get hurt." Namjoon said as he gave Jin a worried look.
"Don't worry about us Joon. If something happens you guys will know since one of us will call you. Now let's go."
The three guarding the ship watched as their friend, and boyfriends left. They were all worried but they couldn't simply leave the ship unguarded. If something wrong happens and they need a quick escape they'll be needing the ship so it has to be guarded well.
The other three kept looking around, quite alert for anything suspicious. Their hands held their weapons tightly. Eyes moving frantically. Every slight movement or small sounds made them jumpy.
"Okay. Here's the plan, Jungkook will be the one to approach him while Chim and I will stand a good distance away to not scare him. If something goes wrong we're ready to back you up and call the others." Jin explained, his hands sweating a bit as it held the weapon tightly.
"First of all...will he even understand me. I mean he might've been an evolved zombie for a long time now and he might not understand me."
"That's true but we don't know that so we have to try at least." Jimin added while looking infront of them. His eyes slightly widened when he saw the boy they were looking for earlier sitting casually on top of a ruined building. He could faintly hear humming sounds coming from the boy.
"Jungkook this is your time to shine. Now.... " Jimin whispered before pushing a clueless Jungkook forward. "Go talk to him."
Jimin then pulled Jin away standing beside a weird looking dead tree. Over the course of time trees evolved as well. Some looking scarier some becoming a new type of tree.
Jungkook watched his friends for a bit before looking back at the boy who's lowly humming. It surprised them to hear an evolved hum when they couldn't even speak. He slowly took cautious steps forward trying not to startle the boy.
Once he stood a few meters from the boy he took a few deep breaths before looking up, his breath suddenly getting caught in his throat once he saw the boy also looking at him. He watched how the boy's head tilted a bit in a cute way, eyes holding curiousity as they locked on his surprised ones.
"Umm....hi?"
Well that was awkward. Jungkook scratched the back of his head, a shippish smile making its way on his lips. He then heard two low snickers from a distance away making hik turn a bit and glare at Jin and Jimin.
With a sigh he turned back to the boy. "Look. I don't know if you can understand me at all but me and my team wanted to see if you want to....perhaps join our team? We can help you hunt for more leveled up cores. And give you safety and more suitable place to live, if you want?"
The boy slightly tilted it's head again, the manner too cute to ignore making Jungkook smile a bit as he waited for any signs of response. It took nearly 10 minites of standing there before a small nod was given by the boy.
The small gesture made Jungkook do a quick happy dance, his bunny smile on full display.
"Thank you so much for agreeing. I promise you, you won't regret your decision." Jungkook said before offering a hand which the boy slowly took. The touch made Jungkook shudder at how cold the boy's hand is.
Yet it also shocked him, at how soft and delicate the hand looks. It wasn't veiny and rough like what he had originally thought it would feel. In fact he didn't look like a zombie at all if you don't consider his eyes and inability to speak. His whole appearance looks more pale, skin soft without any visible black veins on them. His lips were a bit dry.
"By the way...I'm Jungkook."
