Sempiternal | Phase II

3. HYBE

bts just followed around their older selves, they just got comfortable around their 2018 selves that now they are with 2021 ones, not to mention their heavenly intimidating aura. The surrounding and everything felt suffocating to them, specifically the thing on their faces.

Though the maknae line had totally transformed into crackheads, hyung line was still a bit quiet while BTS were looking all ways to check it there is any Dispatch dog.

They entered the large elevator, there were two guys already in there with their masks on. BTS didn't notice them nor they were interested in checking who was it while bts did notice their presence and stepped a bit away from them.

"This doesn't look like BigHit?" jimin asked in a questioning tone.

"I was about to say the same thing—" hoseok added.

"Oh we left BigHit" YOONGI said nonchalantly, BTS looked at him for a second and then decided to play along.

"WHY!?" asked all of the seven in unison.

"Mr. Bang wasn't good with us" JIMIN added.

"Songdeuk-ssi would not give us any rest at all" JUNGKOOK said.

"PD nim won't even recall my name—" TAE couldn't complete his sentence when someone pulled his ear making him wince in the pain.

"Who said I don't recall your name KIM TAEHYUNG?" Asked the guy. "And I don't treat you guys good, huh Jiminie? Then who dances on my head day and night" He said grabbing JIMIN'S ear with his other hand.

"I don't give breaks Jungkookie? Watch me today dear" said the other voice grabbing the maknae's year.

"Ayyyaaaahhhhh" the Maknae Line of BTS was wincing in pain as both the guys let go off them.

"Mianhae hyungie" said the trio rubbing their red as tomato ear.

"Who are they?" Wispered jin to NAMJOON.

"Oh Seokjin, you could identify me? I am Bang Sihyuk" said the man removing his mask. "The CEO of HYBE Labels, formally known as BigHit" He added glaring the boys who just sheepishly smile.

"Don't tell me that I look different than 2013" said Songdeuk, their choreographer removing his mask. "And I'll see how well you do without any breaks today" He said eyeing Jungkook.

"JEON JUNGKOOK YOU ARE SO DEAD" said JIN and HOBI together as the maknae went behind YOONGI.

"THAT WAS YOONGI HYUNG'S IDEA, THAT WASN'T MY FAULT!" He screamed at the top of his lungs.

"Broken my ear" JIMIN said in English while the six bts members just looked cluelessly at him trying to decipher what did he just say.

"Jungkook don't shout and we will get the break when we want anyhow" YOONGI calmly said bts just stared at the way he said that, with so much authority!

"I swear to God if someone other than Jungkook screamed into hyung's ear like that, that guy would be in his grave till now" TAE said.

"Tsk tsk, don't be so dramatic Tae"

"Hyung, when did you both come in?" Asked JIMIN.

"Before the fourteen of you came in talking loud af" Sihyuk replied.

"Wait so BigHit—" jin couldn't ask his question when the older replied.

"Yes, BigHit is now HYBE" Songdeuk.

"These brats here were speaking all false since they entered in here" Sihyuk said flicking TAEHYUNG's head while the younger groaned in pained.

"Oh we are here, boys I need you all in my room. Right Now!" Said their CEO.

"And all seven if you, don't speak or glance at anything, there are many groups and trainees here and each of them can identify the BTS' predebut selves. We better prevent that" He said pointing towards bts to which they gulped but nodded.

Along there way to the CEO's cabin there were many people around, almost all of them were bowing at BTS, greeting them morning, addressing them with a word that bts didn't even imagine to be called by, 'sunbaenim'
(Sunbaenim is used by Koreans to address their seniors or the ones they look upto).

Upon reaching into the room bts just gawked at their surroundings. That room could fit their whole practice room and still have some space left.

"Hyung, how did you know that they'll be here?" NAMJOON asked a question which was in their minds for a long time.

"Now I need to recite the whole story. As I told you that after you went back your 2013 selves forgot it all but there was more to it, before forgetting it, they also went away in the white light for about an hour I guess and came back. It was you only who told me and Songdeuk all that, the next morning when you woke up, all that was gone from your memory but I remembered" He said in one breath.

"Hyung you can always join in as the eighth member, you can beat Yoongi's rap" JIN said to which the younger glared at him while the others just laughed.

"So hyung you knew it all since forever about all the things that happened but never told about it to us, that's so unfair" JIMIN said being offended.

"I guess it was supposed to he this way, but as for now, yall go in your room. I'll figure out what to do next" He said to which they nodded and headed to their practice room.
