44: Surprise Bitches

"SWEET TIMES OVER!."

Taehyung looked away, shock plastered all over. Kiera just smiled and slowly walked towards the skinny woman in front of her. She smirked,
"Atlast we meet."
The woman smirked as well,
"It's about time, don't you think? Queen of Hearts."
They both exchanged a glance before they both found each other wrapped up in a warm embrace.
"It's around time you reclaim your throne Queen."
"I was waiting for you, Joker Unnie."

"Kiera..."
Taehyung said, his voice trapped almost, due to the betrayal. Joker passed Kiera a shining silver,
"This is that one fucker..."
"Unnie, let's zip our lips for a while."
Kiera felt something coming back again. As her fingers wrapped themselves in a familiar position around the familiar weapon. Her hand instinctively rose, aiming at the young man in front of me. Her tone rather confident,
"Let's have it my way? One on One?"
Taehyung scoffed. He felt a bitter taste at the back of his throat. He threw his gun on the ground and rose his hands above his head,
"No. Let's have it my way. You kill me off."
A voice inside told Kiera to drop her gun. She shook the thought off and held the gun tighter,
"Fine Hot Stuff. Any last wishes?"
Taehyung chuckled. Bitterly enough to make Kiera's skin crawl.
"No. People wish things when the heart inside them beats. But the moment the reason for your heartbeat turns against you, you forget every one of your wishes."
Kiera's knees felt weaker. Taehyung's words pierced through her heart. But she was the Queen, right? Queens never ever feel soft.
"Whatever!"
Kiera's fingers rushed towards the trigger. Taehyung looked deep into Kiera's heterochromic eyes, one last time. He felt an aching sensation in his heart muscles. When the person who's your everything puts in gun point. They don't actually have to kill you. When they hold the gun, your soul already experiences death. He smiled as tears ran down his eyes,
"Saranghae Doll."
This was it. It all ends here. Taehyung felt broken. Not because he was about to die. But because he was about to die in the hands of the person he loved.
He came back to Earth when he heard a hard metal fall on the floor. Kiera groaned,
"RUN AWAY! JUST GO AWAY! TOMORROW CLAIM YOUR TROPHY. BECONE THE DAMN HERO! JUST RUN AWAY, I'M GIVING YOU THIS SECOND CHANCE. WANNA KNOW WHY? CAUSE YOU ALWAYS GAVE ME ONE. NOTE THAT, I DON'T DO THAT OFTEN. SO JUST RUN AWAY AND LIVE."
Tears ran down her eyes. She could never live with holding the grudge that she murdered Kim Taehyung. Taehyung smirked, the Kiera he knew wasn't at all gone or an act. Kiera looked at Taehyung once before picking up another unfamiliar gun, lying on the floor and scurrying out of the room.
Joker sighed,
"Learn to take care of things. She really loves you, Babo!"
Taehyung fell down on his knees. Unable to process everything. All this time, she had the upper hand in this game? His eyes wandered towards the shiny weapon on the other corner of the room. The Queen's scepter. Kiera's most favoured gun.

5 young men-women strolled through the hallways as their hands held their most desired ornaments. Guns. The girls passed each others smiles as the boys just made eye contact.
"So this was what you guys planned to do?"
Yoongi turned around to face the tall, broad shouldered man. J. C smirked,
"Hyung, it's been quite some time since we met. I'm sure you still remember me?"
Jin scoffed,
"How could I forget my childhood? But I never expected you guys to turn out this way. Jennie, Yoongi, Kiera, you both were given enough chance..."
"What chance are you talking about? Huh? Your people sent both of my sisters to the hospital wing, injured and hurt. Your people called my sisters names. Your people neglected us!"
Jin stood their, as a fuming J. C. ranted. Jin heard every word. He has heard the same thing from every one of the PLAYERS now. And after J. C was done he calmly said,
"You really grew up, Jung Hoseok."

And with that, in front of him, no longer stood the vicious criminal. Kim Seokjin saw his younger brother. The scrawny boy with an undying love for dancing. The scrawny boy with the softest of heart. The boy who used to put others before himself. The boy who was their serotonin boost. Their only sunshine. Their Hope.

"Yoongi, I'm proud of you man. I'm sure you took good care of the little ones. I'm actually glad that you and Jennie were the older ones in charge after Jisoo and I left. I'm no one to stop you guys here. Neither will I go ahead with you. All I need to say is, I missed you and I regretted letting you go. You all still are my younger siblings. No matter what! You have chosen your destiny, so have I. But if you ever feel like taking a risk, I'd keep in touch with you. Jennie, make sure to stay calm and be true to yourself. Hobi, always go with what your heart says. And you two little ones! Take care of yourself, okay? Now, the guys are looking for you, want me to help you?"
Kiera smirked,
"Tempting offer, but Jin Oppa we'd deny it. It's more fun this way."
They fist bumped each other. Jin whispered in Yoongi's ear,
"Before you leave, just know that someone is waiting for you. So make sure to bid her goodbye."
"I know Hyung."
Yoongi smiled at him. Even though everything inside him felt rusted. Every emotion. Good byes are hard. He doesn't wanna bid her good bye.

They were all heading back, when Jennie slightly chimed,
"Oppa, can you please call up Namjoon? I need to tell him before I leave."
Jin smiled. The blooming young romance was something everyone sensed between Namjoon and Jennie. Since way back. They always had strings attached to each other. When Namjoon started taking interest in Jisoo, it would be a lie to tell that Jin didn't feel a bit hurt. But again, Jennie was a mirage back then. But now he was the biggest NamJen shipper here.
"Ofcourse little NiNi."
