Just Us Three-But It Doesn't Have to Be

47

They managed to sneak back into the house with relative ease. They figured that the Hyungs had probably figured it out this time. At the very least, with the ease that came with sneaking back in, they knew that they had snuck out and were just hoping that they would come back. They would, of course, and they had, but it was also the fact that they were trying to hide their extra powers. It was obvious that they had some form of alternative magic, after all. Jimin sighed at the realization, but none of them could do anything more about trying to hide their powers if they were obviously exposed. They did not know which one of them, of course, had the extra powers, but it was clear that one of them had some form of cloaking powers, something that both Jimin and Jungkook had apologized to Taehyung for. 

"It is fine, guys," Taehyung had been quick to reassure. "They do not know which one of us has extra powers, or that all of us do, nor are they aware of what they are, just what sort of powers that it is. It could be worse, and we could have run into a lot more severe issues, something which you know, we all know first hand. We got really lucky. Besides, even if we had not said anything, I know we all figured the others would figure out that we were hiding something." 

"Well, that is true," Jimin said quietly. Jungkook was quick to shake his head, despite the words. 

"Still though, I bet it was the addition that drew more attention to it. Look, despite how careful they were in their frantic haste, it was obvious that they disturbed some of the room." He pointed out, leaving the others to squirm a bit uncomfortable at the realization. 

"We need to..." 

"Yeah," Jimin and Taehyung quickly stated, leaving all three of them agreeing to what they needed to do without stating explicitly what they were going to do. Bugs were finicky things. Always easy to hide, and deadly little things as well. They had gotten used to the thought that their Hyungs would not bug their room, but it was still a risk, and they were the Mafia. It would not really shock them if they had. Not that they could really blame them either considering that they had not really made things easy for them. In fact, they had worked quite hard to make things more difficult than perhaps it was necessary to be. 

That was mostly for the testing part but it was still something that they were quite proud of. Something that they would also not want to change. If they could, they would do the same thing regardless. It was important to see where their limits were. The Hyungs did not really rise to the occasion, it was quite impressive. 

Upon researching the room, they realized that once again there was a lack of bugs in the room. Despite what they had thought, it would seem that yet again the Hyungs had refrained themselves. They had to admit that they were quite impressed with the control that the Mafia Hyungs had. It was quite a common thing to bug an office, or a room, particularly if you did not trust the people that owned it. The fact that they had yet to do so was astounding. 

"Perhaps we should just tell the others what our alternative powers are?" Jungkook suggested, leaving Jimin to give him a dark look. 

"That is an awful idea." He stated strongly. "I honestly think that it is a bad idea as a general rule." Jimin sighed out. "I understand why it would be wanted, of course, but if we can hide them as long as possible, I would really prefer that." Taehyung nodded in agreement. 

"I agree with Jimin." He said, his voice quiet. "I...I just think that if we can hide our extra powers then it would be best, I...It is nerve wracking, you know that you feel the same way." 

"True, but...But I really think if we come clean now, before we actually get grilled about it, they are not going to get so upset. It would be best." Jungkook peered up at his two Hyungs. "After all, they can't get upset if we tell them than if they realize that we were hiding excess information. I mean, I know that they do not expect us to come clean with them entirely, but what if it inhibits our training?" 

"Then why don't we just tell our trainers and not the Hyungs?" Jimin insisted, almost pouting. 

"How are we going to ensure that they do not restate whatever we tell them to the others?" Jungkook challenged, a rare instance that had Jimin and Taehyung kind of staring at them. 

"You have a point, but do we really want to bother with the Hyungs?" Jimin wondered, having realized that his thoughts and suggestions were slowly being thrown out in the water. 

"Yes," Jungkook said firmly. Jimin closed his eyes, stress slowly building as the conversation continued. He accepted his defeat, and knowing that Jungkook had good points as well. 

"Fine, Fine I accept that you are right, but we wait until the Trainers are gone. If it is truly necessary they can tell the trainers." 

It was that ever present form of effortless rebellion on Jimin's part, a bit of pettiness pushed to the forefront of actions. Taehyung just laughed a bit and nodded. 

"That is a wonderful plan, really." 

"Shall we gather them afterwards?" Jungkook asked anxiously. 

"Well, they are going to gather us for the meal. If they aren't too pissed that we dipped off of course." Jimin said with a bit of an anxious laugh. 

"They did not do that the last time." Taehyung ventured. 

"They did not do that the last time." Taehyung ventured. 

"What they did last time and what they do now...we know that things can change easily." Jimin stated, his eyes flinted. 

"True, but remember how Jin reacted the last time the others suggested something? Jin is the most motherly one of the group, he would be so angry if we ended up having to skip meals. The last time we suggested that he got horrified, and a bit angry too." Jungkook said with a shrug. The other two relaxed a bit at the reminder.
