6. SCARED?
You were in your room. It was not so big. Not a normal one either. It was very small, but you were glad that the boys gave you the privacy that any girl wishes in that small cottage you were living in. They sure are the epitome of goodness as far as you have seen. Of course, there were various occasions in which you guys don't go well together. Though there were struggles, their main priority was to protect you at all costs. To keep you safe and sound. You could not comprehend how you are going to repay them for their kindness. Without the boys, you'd be an orphan and life would be unadventurous. That fact made you glad that you have the chance to call someone family.
Even now, he was pulling you outside to keep you safe. Not bothering about his safety, his friend's safety. His strong slender fingers were wrapped around your wrist tightly. With much pressure but at the same time, careful not to hurt you. You were about to stop him to ask about Jungkook. But that was the time, you heard the gunshot. That was the moment, you heard a scream. A man's.
The one you know of. You could feel the back of your eyes burning. Not wanting to let out the tears that were threatening to spill out. Taehyung stopped too. He held your hand tighter. As if telling you nothing would have gone wrong. As if hoping the thing you thought is not real. It didn't happen. But the scream and the gunshot were too painfully real to think it that way.
You released yourself forcefully from his hand. One hand clutching the sword and the other closed as it trembled. You ran. As fast as you could. The tears fell gently caressing your cheeks. Nononono. Kook. Please be safe. You thought entering the house. It was quiet. Too quiet. Only the whistling of woods was heard. This made you even more uncomfortable. You slowly went to the main room. But the thing you saw made your throat close.
Blood.
You can't make any sound. You shouldn't. The intruder may still be here inside. The bloodstain... It was as if someone dragged that body. A dead one. Your footsteps were slow and trembling as you followed the trial. It led to the backside of the cottage.
You hid behind the door. Clutching your sword so tight as if it is your last bit of hope to get rid of the one who entered the cottage without an invitation.
You heard something. A continuous series of sounds. As if someone digging. The sound stopped. You held in your breath. Sweat trickled down your jaw due to fear. Not towards that intruder. Fear of losing. Losing a loved one. Again.
You slowly glanced outside. There was no one. Your feet took you slowly. Thorough with your every move. Very careful not to make a sound. You walked forward towards the place. But then felt a presence. The hairs below your neck rose. You turned around, swung the sword right at the one who was standing behind you. But he moved away, missing the sharp edge of the sword.
"What the hell, Lu. Watch out who you are attacking. Did you forget the lessons already? Open your eyes when you fight." He scolded holding your sword with the big gun he was having in his hand. The gun blocked your sword. Your eyes softened at this. At seeing him. But tears trickled down continuously. The sword dropped from your hand and you ran forward, only to smack him on the head. "Never. Do. Any. Thing. Stupid. Again." You said your teary eyes glaring at his soft strawberry ones. He smiled at this. At your tear-stained face. He brought his hand near your eyes and caught a tear that was about to fall.
"Are these tears for me?" He asked watching your face carefully. "You know. I wouldn't like for you to waste your tears like this, for me." He said, now wiping the tears which were flowing. This made a fresh set of them stream down.
"Then don't make me to. Don't make me scared, idiot." You said, voice a mere whisper. He held a bittersweet smile on this, his hands wrapped around you in a secured way as if showing that he is right here, he is safe, you are safe, and he is not going to let you go. That simple act held so many hidden emotions in. You wiped your tears, disliking the fact that you let those pessimistic thoughts take over your mind.
You wrapped your hands around him too. And then slowly let go of it. You were hesitant, but you can't stay like this for ages. At least, you can't when that certain ice block was sending daggers your way as he walked towards you two. It must have affected him too. He must have been terrified as much as you were. After all, he was his brother and best friend. They were together even before you came into their life.
His face was cold. Though his eyes, they never betray. It always reveals the true emotions of people's hearts and it did that time too. He came closer, his face neutral, but the emotions in his eyes and his heavy footsteps made it clear for Jungkook that Taehyung still cared for him. "I'm alright Tae. You don't have to worry." He said, revealing his bunny teeth. Taehyung let out the breath he was holding all while. "I didn't worry. And I know that you are more capable of taking care of yourself than this dumbhead. So, care explaining what happened?" He said. His tone was as cold as himself.
Wait. Wait. Wait. Did he just call you dumbhead?
"Did you just cal-"
Another loud sound made you stop what you were attempting to say. All of your heads turned to the source like a meerkat's.
"It is not safe for us to be here anymore. We have to move on. The smell of blood will attract them." Taehyung said, looking in both your direction. You nodded and went inside the house, taking the only necessary things. Each of you slung your bags and headed out. There was not much to carry anyway. Because this was something you do more often. Moving from place to place.
"Where are we going this time, Taehyung?" Jungkook asked, steps careful and silent to not attract any of those towards the three. "Into the kingdom," Taehyung said, leading the way. His sword hanging in his belt loop, moving along as he walked.
His sword. The thing that caught your eyes always, making you marvel at what made it looks so... You couldn't find a word to say it. That was the most attractive sword you have ever seen. Its blue handle matching with his hair and eyes. The glittery blade with its pointy tip and edges so sharp that even boulders would fall into two pieces when the blade was used against them. And the highlight was that it had the face of a lion. A lion's face is engraved right above the blue handle, its mane carved out carefully with details as its blue eyes seemed to be flashing dangerously, making it look ethereal while using it. The whole sword in one word...
Majestic.
That sword was majestic. That's what you would say. "Into the kingdom? Are you sure it is the time to move there?" You asked, his decision confusing you a bit. No. A lot. It had been five years since you had been in the town. The hustle-bustle of the large street, vendor's noises, people's humble smile. It has been five years since you have talked to any other person other than the two. Heck. You needed some friends. Girls. This testosterone around you was making you forget your gender.
And so you were excited to go there. To see people. To buy things. And maybe get some work. And live a life like normal people. You sighed. It's hard to predict what life had for you.
CRACK!
"What was that?" You asked, eyebrows furrowed in concern. At this time, you guys were much far away from the cottage. In the middle of the forest. Oh no. It will be hard to escape from those if you all don't move fast. You held Jungkook's arm, but he flinched away, hissing in pain. That was when you saw.
A bloody big cut. More of which made by claws.
Its claws...
"Oh Shit." You heard Taehyung curse under his breath. Jungkook's eyes widened at that. You all are in big trouble...

"We will just eat you. And if you don't taste good, we will feed you to our pets, and even if they don't like your taste, no worries, you will be safe in the tummy of the big sharks or whales those carry Islands on them." Hoseok said with a smile.
Great. At least they are not killing him.
His face paled as the white clouds when realization dawned upon him.
Hoseok sensed his panic. He can't believe that this human believed him. He laughed at Jimin's face that looked like there was a ghost right in front of him. One more thing to notice was that the monkey cracked up too. Showing its teeth, and slapping its head while its tail draped around Hoseok for balance.
Great, Jimin. You are funny even for the aliens now. Oh and monkeys too. Just great.
"You actually believed what I said? You are crazy, Jimin." Hoseok laughed. But his laughter died when Jimin tackled him pushing him down on the bed and
Tickled him?
Hah. This works on aliens too. He kept on tickling him until Hoseok started laughing louder and tears started trickling down his eyes. Hoseok on was not much fond of being tickled but he was glad that Jimin made him laugh even by this forceful act.

Loeva was having a really bad mood right now. How many times should I tell those men to work hard? Ugh! If they are not going to take this seriously, then I am going to fire them. Literally.
She was walking through the hallway. Today she had so much work to do and that made her trustfrated. I mean frustrated. Being a princess does had its perks and this is not definitely what she wanted.
She wanted to go out. Be like how a normal girl would be. She sighed, that wouldn't happen when she's in the Palace. She must behave. Everyone wants that from her. Living for other's expectations had become her life.
Maybe that was the reason she headed to the place where she doesn't have to act like the oh-so-perfect princess. To her friends. That thought brought a smile to her face, her feet taking her faster by their own. That's when she heard a noise. What is that?
Where does that come from? As if someone was shouting. Her eyebrows furrowed. These were the rooms in which humans were taken care right? Have they gone nuts again? Because this was not the first time. Many already did. And they need help right now. Her help.
She pushed the door with her palm. "Hey, human. Are you alright? Do you need any hel-" She stopped herself. Her eyes widening at the view in front of her.
A pink-haired human on top of, is it Red hair? Hoseok?
Both the males glanced at her, in that same intimate position they were in. Her whole face turned crimson at the thought of what they would be doing right now. Oh god.
"Uhhh... You know. Nevermind. But I never thought that you were into humans, Hoseok. That too a nice male one? Uhh... You guys continue. Sorry for disturbing you." She said fast with a smirk on her face and left the place.
Both of their minds said the same thing. Including that monkey.
"What?..."

Back on Earth:
"I know where to go, Dad." Ji Ah said, her voice was full of determination. She told him the way, Mr.Park driving at a speed that is definitely not a legal one. And their destination was a Park?
She got out of the car as soon as it came to a stop. Standing there again, she started to look for someone. No. Something. "Are you sure, Ji?" Her father asked, voice filled with concern. "Yes, Dad."
"It had been so long since you did this." He said, being the well-wisher of his daughter as always. "Come on, Dad. You should trust your children once in a while." She said with a confident smirk on her face. Mr.Park can't help but grin at his daughter. Oh, God! I've got one hell of a daughter.
Ji Ah took a deep breath. Yes, she hadn't done this in a long while. She spread out her hands, feeling the warm and gentle wind of spring around her when the outside of the park and the rest of the road were covered in snow.
She started in awe, opening her eyes, her brown orbs were now blazing a bright pink. She could feel the wind increase around her. As if greeting her. Wanting to see what she is going to do. A powerful pink aura started to encircle her. She moved her hands, which now releasing powerful shining specks of pink dust. Dirt and leaves rose from her feet, obeying her hand movements as if she was their Queen and obeying under her, opposing all sorts of physical laws that were taught in Earth. She started moving her hands faster and now the wind got a lot more faster, causing her dad to hide his eyes in the process.
At one point all the dirt, the leaves, and her pink mist started to form a spherical shape, which looked like a
portal?...
