"The fuck are you trying to say?" A furious Kim Namjoon yelled, throwing away the tray holding a glass of water and paracetamol tablets. The maid shivered, immediately running away from the place.

"Joon." Chanyeol sighed, placing a hand on his shoulder, but he shrugged it off harshly, before rubbing his aching temples.

"You said you'll find them, right? Then where is this coming from now?" Junghyun snarled, slamming his fist down on the table, which made the Inspector sigh, but the juniors flinched.

Both Jeongguk and Taehyung's elder brothers were scary.

"It is estimated that this cyclone will last for another two weeks. And the radio signals are-"

"We don't fucking care!" Chanyeol grumbled. Oh, and Jimin's brother too.

He sighed before looking back at Jimin who was sitting on the couch, with his hands covering his face. He hated to see Jimin so dejected. He looked back at the police.

"As soon as the convectional rain or whatever you are on about, ends by this month, you are going to search for them on every fucking island of Maldives. And we are coming with you." He added at the end, when the Inspector parted his lips to speak. "It is a fault on the part of your government and don't you dare try to teach us how systems work."

Namjoon's phone rang. He hesitantly picked it up, "Yes, Jin?"

"Any updates?"

Namjoon sighed, moving towards a window and briefing him about the talk they just had.

"They are alive!" Namjoon heard his mother from the other end of the line and he closed his eyes at her broken sobs. He immediately cut the call.

"Alright, sir." The Inspector sighed, putting his hat back on and bowing slightly, with a grim look on his face.

"We will start the search as soon as we find the weather safe for us to set out."

"Let it be soon." Namjoon warned.

Back in Seoul, it was a mess. None of the family members were given completely authentic insights and that left them worried.

"Jinnie?" A frowning Kim Baekhyun said, as he looked up at his brother-in-law-to-be, who was just as dejected as he was, standing by the door.

"Are Taetae and Jeongguk fine?" He whispered, feeling the tears welling up once again.

Seokjin forced up a smile, which disappeared almost immediately, as he inhaled heavily, and walked up to the other, pulling him in a tight hug. Besides being Namjoon's fiancé, he was Baekhyun's best friend, and he knew how much the brunet loved his youngest brother.

"They are safe and sound, Hyunie. Don't worry, they'll be back soon."

"Tae? Stay with me alright? You need to help me." Jeongguk panted, carrying a shivering boy to the small cabin. Struggling a bit, he pushed open the door with his foot and immediately walked in, placing Taehyung on the floor, but as soon as his back touched the cold wall, he hissed and hugged himself, moving away from it.

"It's... cold, Jeongguk." He whispered, struggling to keep his eyes open and breathing heavily. Jeongguk exhaled, before kneeling down in front of Taehyung and pulling him towards himself. The boy whimpered, closing his eyes and fisting Jeongguk's shirt, when he hugged him.

"Tae? Your shirt is still damp. It's not good." Jeongguk whispered in his ear, softly stroking his back. "You can change into my jacket. It's dry."

Taehyung whined, shaking his head slowly, "Don't w-want to."
