Everyone has some stages in life where it feels like everything is breaking down, falling into ashes. And all we can do is to watch it as spectators having no control over it. No matter, hard we try but humans can never compete with their fates. Fate can convert your loved ones into traitors. And surely does fate has played its role in Aera and other's life when they have seen Kim Taehyung, whom they all cherished so much, holding hands with the enemies.

"I am so happy to introduce my son Taehyung to you all. After all, he will be included in board leaders of Izon." The old man laughed holding the microphone in one hand and Taehyun's shirt sleeves on another.

"Tell me I am not hallucinating..." Yoongi murmured looking at the scene in front not believing his eyes.

"This motherfuc-" Jimin grits his teeth. The man he called his brother is the one who stabbed all of them in the back.

"You all need to leave...five minutes remaining." Jungkook's voice echoed through all of their earpieces.

"Let's leave." Namjoon said, his expressions unreadable.

"B-but Taehyung-" Aera looked in front.

"Don't let your emotions control you. Decide either to die here, or live." Namjoon looked straight into her eyes.

Aera bit her lips, her eyes slowly becoming glossy.

"Namjoon is right, let's leave." Hoseok said with a straight face, already turning around to leave.

Yoongi looks at Taehyung standing in the front for the last time before leaving and slowly all of them leave with the heavy hearts.

"Namjoon are you leaving him! He is gonna die here." And this time Aera did not stop her tears from falling.

"Stop it Aera and let's leave." Namjoon tightly holds her hand and starts dragging her out of the place.

"No...please-"

"Do not create a scene Aera or I will really let you die here."

"So let me!" She yanked her hand out of his hold.

Namjoon clenched his jaw and without any word, he tightly grips her hand and makes a run to be out of the mansion as soon as possible. He finally leave her when they reached at their van.

"Are you mad!!" She screamed, "You have left him there to die."

"He betrayed us." Namjoon has a calm demeanor the whole time but his eyes were speaking another story, "And betrayers has no right to live."

And then there was a huge blast behind them, producing an ear-bleeding sound.

Aera immediately closed her eyes and ears as tears without any permission make their way out of her eyes. As if history was repeating itself, Like Jiwoo, she has to see Taehyung die but this time the heartbreak was huge.

"No no no...." She opened her eyes as slowly the reality sunk in. "NO!!" She screamed running in the direction of the burning villa.

"Stop it Aera." Jimin holds her hands with glossy eyes, "It's of no use."

"How can you? He still was your friend!! How can you all let him die!" She holds her hair, this pain was too much.

"Come on Aera! Let's go." Yoongi gently holds her up and guided her to the seat.

Jin started the car and without any words they left the area, leaving behind the ashes of the mansion and people.

------------------

The silence in the car was deafening. No one utter a single word, the only voice can be heard was Aera's soft sobs. How can they talk when all of their thoughts were making so much noise inside their head. 

"What to do now?" Jin breaks the silence.

Namjoon moves his head from the window and looks in front noticing Jin's eyes from the rearview mirror. He takes a shuddering breath before moving his lips to empty his thoughts, "I don't know hyung." This was one of the rare times when Kim Namjoon feels lost, "I don't know what to do."

"I cannot believe Taehyung was in Izon all this time." Hoseok looks up with a distressed face.

"I don't know why the hell I am feeling sad, dammit!" Jimin punched the seat in front as a lone tear drops from his face, "He is dead and I don't know how to feel about it." he hides his face with both of his hands. Jungkook comforts his hyung with himself trying to control his tears leaving from his eyes.

Aera was silent looking out of the window noticing new trees coming and in the blink of an eye passing by. Her tears just won't stop, no matter how hard she tries. Why do all the people that she loves and cherishes dearly were snatched ruthlessly away from her. Does the universe hate her this much?

"Hey, Aera..." Yoongi's soft voice forces her to peel her eyes away from the window, "We are home." He softly looks at her.

Aera nodded not caring to wipe away her tears because she knew the new ones will take place of the old ones soon. She gets out of the car with a heavy heart. Let's be each other in another life Tae where no one can separate us, just the two of us against the whole world...she smiles.

Yoongi softly takes her hands as he smiled at her, "I know it's hard but things will get better soon. I promise that."

Aera looks at him, maybe the universe is not too cruel for her.

All of them enter the Viper's mansion with one less member. They have never expected such circumstances but can do nothing but accept the fact.

"I see all of you are finally here." A gruff voice suddenly chuckled.

All the members went in attacking mode hearing a foreign voice. The lights of the Viper's mansion turned on and there standing the old leader of Izon with a disgusting smirk resting on his face.

"You all love to play killing." He laughs loudly, "But I guess you are not that good." 

"Don't worry I will teach you the art of killing." 

Always remember that I love you guys! Okayyy!!
