Like an Echo [KTH Fanfic]

Into the Past

Years go by and slowly everything is forgotten.

It is hard to forget the loudest shouts of the past though, because they echo on forever.

Watching your children grow up is one of the hardest things for people to do, but it is an inevitable change. Every story told and song whispered no longer holds the same meaning that it once did, and people learn to adapt to this when their song is no longer as important.

A song rings out around them and envelopes them all as they watch Yunki practice his latest piece. He's frustrated and the song that he once picked to be his whole passion this year has become his worst enemy. Sapphire sits beside him and turns the pages, looking worriedly at her soulmate as he gets more irritated.

"Jungkookie," Taehyung hums. "What song is this?"

"I don't know but it's the one that used to but Sara-Lee to sleep," Jungkook said. "So it's making me tired."

Mid yawn as Jungkook says it, Yunki slams his hands down on the keys before getting up and storming off.

"Nevermind then," Jungkook stared bewildered as Sapphire holds her eyes shut, squeezing her fingers into the palms of her hands.

Yunki pauses in his tracks before stalking back to Sapphire, curling into her and sighing.

"Their bond has always freaked me out," Jungkook said. "Even more now that Sapphire figured out that weird summoning thing."

"She's the product of Jimin and Opal, who, if you don't remember, are one of the rarest and weirdest soulmates to exist," Taehyung said. "It'd be weird if she didn't have a weird bond with her soulmate."

"True," Jungkook says, now it was Taehyung's turn to yawn, his eyes getting heavy.

We have flashed forward once again to meet a bigger family. It's now 2042, and the family is slightly bigger.

Jungkook and Ara welcomed a daughter five years ago, her name is Sara-Lee.

Many of the children have met their soulmates, especially since some of them are over 18 now. Annika being one of them.

Annika met her soulmate and brought him home when they were just 15. He died two years later. She had spent a year without a soulmate now, and was coping by living in Japan with some relatives of Lena's.

It's hard to forget what shouts so loudly in your past, but Lena and Taehyung were watching their daughter try to forget the biggest scream.

Life had calmed down for everyone, with BTS being something that would soon come to an end...for the second time. They had stopped years ago before starting up about three years ago. Now, all of them were parents, Hoseok and Xia were about to be grandparents too, so it was time to really end things.

"Kim Taehyung," Ara walked into the room, Sara-Lee running after her, a baby doll in hand. "Why did I just get a call from your wife saying you left her at the venue?"

"I didn't- I- oh-" Taehyung's eyes went wide. "Shit."

Finding his phone, he realized it was dead before cursing again.
