Namjoon's POV

After I give the music box back to Taehyung and then I unfold the paper, reading it.

I just ILLEGALLY studied how to see the future. Namjoon, when you read this, I was already being captured by someone. I can't tell who and also some visions of the future are blurry because I somehow put the wrong ingredient. I try to start over but I have no time and I have to tell Taehyung about this. Namjoon, whatever you do, please protect Taehyung for me. If I end up dying, I love you, Joonie.

Love,
Kim Seokjin

After I read that, I just remember what happened right after I was banished out of the tribe. I got framed by my own friend, Jun Myeong Hyung. I got blind by a guy I don't know that tried to possess my fucking body. How did I run away? Hoseok comes at me and helps me out of the place while he holding a big bag of coins. Thinking about the letter I just read makes me think about what Jin Hyung is going through as I am. Make me feel angry

Author's POV

Taehyung just froze on his spot, scared to say a word to Namjoon because he looks like he starts to glow a little bit. Taehyung then catches a glance at some stuff in the tent and starts floating. Not just that, some stuff outside of the tent also starts floating. Hoseok notices the weird situation. It took him a few minutes to realise what happened and he immediately run toward the tent Namjoon was in. He immediately runs towards the tent and opens the tent. "Hey, Namjoon-ah. It's gonna be fine. Calm the fuck down." Hoseok said while holding onto Namjoon's shoulder. The stuff around them abruptly drops and the glow on Namjoon is gone.

"Sorry, I just remember something."

"Okay, what happened actually that makes you act like this?" Hoseok asks and Namjoon hands the paper to him. Hoseok takes it and then reads it.

"Hyung, what's going on?" Taehyung asks, confused about what's going on. 

"I'll tell you later, Tae. I'm not in the mood. Sorry." Namjoon said, walking out of the tents, living Hoseok with Taehyung in the tents. Taehyung was about to ask Hoseok but got cut.

"I know you have some questions, little guy but this is not the time. Namjoon has a hard time. You can wait for him, right?" Hoseok asks and Taehyung nods. "Good. One of my lads will come to you and give you some new clothes to wear, okay?" Hoseok said and Taehyung nod. Hoseok walks out of the tent and goes to find Namjoon. He then finds him at his resting spot, meditating.

Hoseok walks closer to him and sits beside him. "You think he chooses him?" Hoseok asks, about the letter earlier he just read.

"Jeongin passed by earlier and I asked him about what happened at the old temple. Yes, Jin indeed being chosen." Namjoon said and one of the trees suddenly explode. Hoseok was unfazed by the sudden loud sound because he knows it's gonna happen.

"I know you are mad but we can't do anything to save him, Joon," Hoseok said and got roughly pushed to the tree. 

"What did you mean we can't do anything, Hyung? What do you mean?!!" Namjoon yells while Hoseok tries so hard to stand on his foot.

"He will die, Joon. Like what happened to my sister when that motherfucker tried to use her fucking body. She died, Joon. SHE DIED DURING THE FUCKING RITUAL!!! THEY KILL MY ONE AND ONLY SISTER AFTER I MADE A DEAL TO WORK FOR THEM!! That's how I know the way out of the place when we first met." Hoseok said, shocks Namjoon is a process.

"Hoseok, I'm sorry. I didn't know."

"It's alright but, I'm sorry. I'm not sure if he can be still alive after that motherfucker get out of his body."

"You call him motherfucker every time. Do you know his name?"

"Nope, not at all."

"How you did not know his name when you work for him?"

"No, and I even don't know his real face since he always changes bodies." Hoseok finished and Namjoon shocks at it and thought how many people it had already sacrificed. "Between 5 including you, there's the only one person that made it out without getting any disability," Hoseok added.

"Really? Who?" Namjoon asks, didn't believe that someone made it unlike him, get blinded. Gladly his newly friend, Moonbyul makes a blindfold for Namjoon so he can see but only if he wears it. Moonbyul wishes he can make a potion for him to get his sight back but unfortunately, it's not her speciality.

"I don't know who but he's the only phoenix hybrid among the 5 victims. 6 including your beloved Jin."

"I think there's a certain kind he can't possess. Do you know what kind are they?"

"Well, my sister is a cobra hybrid, which she gets from my father. There's a panther and sirens."

Back to Namjoon's POV

Panther, sirens, cobra, phoenix, Jin Hyung is a fox hybrid and me, kitsune. Connecting all the dots, I think I get it. "He wants a strong kind to possess so he can easily destroy or kill something."

"But how he can't possess you, my sister and the phoenix guy?"

"You told me before that your mother used to be in a noble family before got kicked out and banished because your father that also noble is one of the banished kind in your tribe, right?"

"Y-Yeah. What's with that?"

"I'm also a noble and mostly phoenix hybrids are noble, like the king in my tribe. but...?"

"But what?" 

"Jin Hyung is also a noble," I said and confused. I lost my sight, and Hoseok's sister died. All because it's an attempt to possess both of us."

"What about the phoenix hybrid?"

"That kind of hybrid is the top one most powerful kind."

"Make sense. I heard from one of my ex-boss's favourite minions told me that it almost dies when it attempts to possess that phoenix hybrid." Hoseok said and I still think about what is it wants and why it doing all these shits.
