The Daunted

Jimin groans as consciousness retakes him.

He looks around the small part of the forest in confusion, instinctively going for his wand. He's not sure why: it's not like he wants to live anyway. Regardless, it's human instinct for him to try. But there's one problem with that. Jimin's hands are tied together. He looks down in surprise, pulling at the rope and grunting. "What the hell?" he asks, his eyes widening at the sight before him.

"Park Jimin, right?" a female voice calls.

Jimin whips his eyes around the forest until he sees a woman leaning against a tree not far away. He almost jumps. "Who the hell are you?"

She makes a 'tsk' noise with her tongue and steps forward, stopping once she's only a few feet away from the sitting boy. "I'm surprised you don't know," she replies. She kneels in front of him and stares right into his eyes.

"Why me?" he whispers. Jimin doesn't even care anymore. "Just kill me if you're going to," he adds, sliding down on his whole ass and staring at the ground.

"Awww is the Slytherin depressed?" she asks in a light voice.

"So what if I am?" he says, snapping his eyes up to look at her, "I have no reason to live so... get it over with will you? Don't make me wait any longer. I came out here to die anyway."

She stares at him with wide eyes, cocking her head to the side. "Wait really?"

Jimin nods, "Really. Get it over with."

She laughs, "Unfortunately, I'm not here to kill you. We know your little friends will be looking for you soon. I hope they know you well enough to come looking out here, or at the very least, a search party comes out here for you. I'm hoping your special friend comes looking."

Jimin kicks at the ground, "I don't have a special friend."

"You don't? What about that girl at the maze... L/n?" she slowly says.

"We broke up," he mumbles.

"Oh? You broke up? Is that why you're so sad?"

"Shut up," he says, glaring at her, "we broke up because of something I did! Because I'm an idiot and a failure! Is that what you want, huh? To embarrass me? Humiliate me? Make me feel like I'm nothing?" Jimin softly cries, "I already feel like that! Just... kill me. Please kill me!"

The woman appears melancholy for a split second, then, she goes back to her normal self. "I'm sure you'll get your wish soon enough. If not from my colleagues then from yourself when you're freed."

Jimin furrows his brows. "Colleagues?"

A smirk spreads across her lips. "You think I'm the one out here for no reason? We've been waiting for students to come out here at night so we could do this. Thanks for coming out, you make things even easier. Now my daughter will come running."

Jimin goes completely still and hyperventilates, meeting the woman's eyes with his terrified ones. "D-Daughter?" he stutters, trying to scoot away from her. She simply comes closer.

"I must admit it saddens me that you and my daughter broke up, you would've made a cute son-in-law."

Jimin's tears fall harder, "You monster! You ruined her life! She had to raise herself because of you!"

"Still defending her. I'm sure you won't for much longer."

Jimin's face falls, "What the hell is that supposed to mean?"
