Girlfriend? Maybe. [PJM & YJY]

Swear To The Gods Above. Part 7.

Final part, with a short epilogue at the end.

***********************************************************************************************

Within seconds, the portal transports the four of them back to Olympus, dropping them off in the Great Hall, where all of the Olympian Gods have gathered. Their sudden arrival startles the fellow Gods, and draws their attention to the group.

Upon landing safely in the Great Hall, Jimin falls. His leg going numb as he falters to the ground. The claws of hell hounds have a poison within them, that stuns their prey when scratched. Numbing their prey into stillness for easier capture. The scratch from their battle, runs along the front of Jimin's thighs, and the poison causes his leg to become numb, and for him to collapse. Jeongyeon, seeing Jimin's state, calls out his name and runs over to him in worry. The main Gods watching the scene before them.

"Jimin!" Jeongyeon calls out with concern, running over to Jimin who is now sitting on the floor. The scratch has stopped bleeding, and is now crusting over with dried blood.

Jimin waves off Jeongyeon's concern. "I'm fine. Just need ointment." A special ointment produced on Olympus will heal up the wound nicely, making the scratch nonexistent, and allowing Jimin use of his leg again.

Jeongyeon, too concerned with Jimin, doesn't notice that her mother has stood from her throne. "Jeongyeon, you have completed your mission. Good."

Jeongyeon turns to her mother, and eyes her, before confirming, "Yes, mother."

Zeus eyes his son as well, before standing from his own throne. "Son," He calls out. "Good job handling those hell hounds. You three make a good team, I'm impressed."

All three of the demi-gods nod at Zeus' words. Feeling slight shock at the fact that Zeus praised them. Something he hardly ever does.

Jimin looks at his father and says, "Thanks for swords. I needed it."

So that's where the sword Jimin was using during the battle came from, Jeongyeon thinks. Zeus most have sent it to Jimin somehow.

"Kim SeokJin, thank you for your service. You kept my son safe, and for that, I will be eternally grateful." Zeus continues. He gives an appreciative nod towards the soldier.

Jimin turns to Jin to look at him. "I was wondering who you were, but now I know.  You're the last living soldier from the war to defeat Cronus."

Jin nods his head to confirm. "I sent Jin to look after you, after you left Olympus." Zeus explains.

Jimin nods in understanding. He shakes Jin's hand in gratitude. "Thank you." He doesn't know how much Jin has secretly helped him these past few centuries, but his help during the battle was surmountable. Jin saved Jimin's life, and for that he will be forever grateful.

Poseidon, who has approached his own son, smiles at him. "I'm very proud of your work, Jungkook."

Jungkook bows to his father out of respect. "Thank you, father. Being sent on this mission taught me a few things, and I've come to realize that I'm ready to settle down. I'd like to marry Nayeon, daughter of Aphrodite, if allowed." His revelations do not surprise anyone, least of all Jimin and Jeongyeon.

"Are you sure she wants the same?" Poseidon wonders.

"I am confident that she wants to be with me, yes." Jungkook answers his father.

"Very well." Poseidon approves. "You have my permission, however, you will need Aphrodite's permission as well."

Jungkook turns to the Goddess. She winks at him as she remains seated on her throne. "We will discuss more about my daughter's affairs, at a later time."
