Jungkook's POV

It's strange, this isn't how i'm. Why am i so weak in front of him. Why can't i do anything to him. Thoughts after thoughts wander inside my head.

The cave is dark and cold. But whenever the Guard is here automatically the cave becomes warm. The philomena is crazy. Like how can a snowy cave can be warm! Like how!?

But that's the truth, "His powers are no joke".  Somekind of weird sounds were heard suddenly. My ears are pointed and my cuffed hands hugs my folded legs tightly which are also tied. The pressure made my stomach some relax from making those weird sounds. I haven't eaten anything for two days. My whole body is getting weak and they were desperate for the food.

"If the fairies haven't cured my pain, I could have been died as of now". All the delicious foods were coming to my mind and I couldn't help me from gulping. My stomach is not doing anything good as well. I tried to move, but it only resulted in burning my hands.

"Hyung... Jimin-ah.... Help me.. Help me please! " I cried my throat out.

Hunger. That's not a simple word. I memorized all those moments when i wasted my food. Everytime when there is a gathering or function, the amount of food each person plates just to capture a picture in order to post it on social media and abandoning them, all the memories hit me very badly. I regretted my whole life.
This is the first time I'm suffering from this much hunger. Now I can understand the pain suffered by millions of people who are unable to find the nutrients or a piece of bread for them. I felt so sorry.

My eyes are shutting down slowly. That was when I heard that familiar voice again.

"Jungkook-ah wake up". It was Hobi hyung. He was standing a few steps away from me.
The fairies are naturally making a glow around them making it visible for me to recognize them. A drop of tear rolled down my cheeks without my permission. I dont know why, but maybe because I found my hope.

"H-hyung.." I wanted to speak, but nothing was coming out. The appetite drained out my energy. My lips are pale and dry, eyes are tired and my body is shivering.

" oh kid, look how bad you're now. I wish I could release you from here. But I cant". The helplessness in hyung's face was real.

"Jungkook-ah it's all my fault. I'm so sorry" Jimin was blaming himself, and its the second time he's doing this. I assumed that maybe he felt sorry because he made friendship with me and that's the reason why I'm here. Anyway Hobi hyung is comforting him now. But who's here for me?

"Hyung, I-I'm hungry." That's all I could say.

"Oh! He haven't had anything for 2 days. It's bad for a human." Hobi hyung exclaimed to Jimin. Jimin panicked, but he politely said to me " Jungkook-ah we dont eat food just like you. So we dont know what food you'll prefer or how to make any. If you can have some fruits, we can gather some". He raised his one eyebrow in order to receive a reply.

"Fruits! Like real F-fruits!" My eyes bulged out hearing it. The fairies laughed because of my reaction. They just nodded. " Jimin-ah you dont know how hungry I'm right now. Please bring me anything edible". I managed to complete the sentence and licked my lips out of curiosity about the flavors that's going to tickle my taste buds soon.

The fairies disappeared into thin air and soon appeared with a basket full of colorful fruits in different shapes. They were new to me, I haven't seen them before. Some looks so tropical. I was drooling from the sight.

"Hyung my cuffs!"  It's so sad, like the food is in front of me but I cant have them, i was frustrated. The fairies looked each other and Hobi hyung speak up "Sorry Jungkook-ah, We cant take off your cuffs, it needs more power as it's done by Taehyung and we dont have that much power." My face suddenly dimmed from hearing that. " Hey kiddo, dont be sad. We can take off the flame. Is that ok for you? Can you eat with that?" Jimin questioned and I was quick to reply with a happy nod. The fairies spelled the magic and the flames are off remaining with a strong iron cuffs. I felt so relaxed already.

My hands reached for the basket of fruits, taking a quick view to each fruits in it. I took a dark purple fruit which is round in shape and more looks like a small beetroot. Swiftly I cracked it and found a jello like white watery flesh inside it. In hunger I managed to fill my mouth with it, the sweet tropical taste overflowing my mouth. The fairies watched me with their loving and caring eyes, a small smile escaping their lips.

I tucked my mouth with more fruits and hungrily gulped down. "Be careful, dont choke yourself". Jimin mocked me. I didn't paid attention to any comments they were saying and continued to fill me up with the fruits. Sometimes a giggle escaped from me when certain fruit flavors were so delicious.

My hands, face, dress, even my hair is drowned in fruit juices which occured from my messy eating. The yellow, red and purple food patches were stained into my clothes. A sigh escaped from the fairies who managed to dress me up this morning and seeing me whole messed up again.

They cleaned me and again dressed me up with a thick jacket dress made up of wool and jack. They are so caring and helpful in this situation. I regretted cursing them when I met them outside the cave.

Our friendship occurred easily and quicker, maybe I was fake in the beginning but now I'm not. I really love this cute fairies.

Maybe because of the food I had earlier or because of all the unholy things happened to me I was feeling sleepy again. I was going to sleep in the bare icy floor but the fairies to be fairies they made me a comfortable bed for me and laid me safely as if I'm made up of crystal. My eyes are closed and I fell into the dreamland.

In the world of Gods

"Is there any update from the Guard?" It was a strong voice of a sturdy one.

"N-not yet, but he promised to make it possible before this month end." Seokjin completed his words under the shivers he was feeling from the elder.

"This is his last time to prove it to me. Or else he's going to end up like his father. No mercy this time." The words were strong and seokjin knew what the elder exactly meant.
