Y/N POV ~

"I don't know where your bed is, so for now, you'll sleep here," you mumbled before laying down beside Yoongi, staring up at the makeshift ceiling.

"Before it's too late... The dragon's fire must die down... Kill the dragon... He's getting closer..."

You looked at Yoongi as he mumbled to himself, still seeming asleep.

"Yoongi?"

"Kill him... Kill the dragon."

"Not yet. I need you. I need you alive, healthy, and flying!" you said, tying the sail around his body, hoping it would keep him from changing into the dragon. 

He sat up groaning, the same red glow growing around his body, his eyes now open and looking directly at you. He looked almost like he did right before he changed glowing red, but he stopped. His eyes were changing back to their sea-green, his body collapsing in front of you. You screamed at him, his bonds coming undone. 

You shook your head "no" as you scooted away from him before getting up and running back to the shoreline. 

"Somebody! Hey! I'm over here! Please help me! Hoseok!" you screamed to the ocean until your voice became hoarse again. 

You looked to your side to see a ship recked against the shoreline. Walking towards it, you began sifting through the debris, finding a small boat in the rubbage. 

Pulling it away from the rubbage and towards the sea, you climbed in, grabbed a large wooden stick, and began pushing your way towards the sea, hope filling your chest. 

Before you could make it even three feet, the sky filled with dark clouds, thunder crashing, and the waves became dangerous. 

Realizing your defeat, you climbed out of the boat, hiding it in the rubbage once more, before beginning your climb back to where you had left Yoongi and the creature. 

Walking into the makeshift hut that Yoongi had at the top of the island, you walked in to find Yoongi mumbling to himself. 

"Now I have a name... I am Yoongi... Y/N..."

You looked at his bare bake revealing an open flesh wound. You began looking around for the same leaves he had given you. The rain poured hard against you as you found them nearby and walked back to Yoongi. 

"Please don't burst into flames. Deal?" you asked, making a paste in your hand and gently pressing it into his wound. 

"There. There we are," you said as you tore part of your dress to place over him. 

"Hush now. Nice dragon..." You mumbled as you turned him onto his back to check for more wounds. 

Resting his head in your lap, you became cleaning some of the wounds on his face, admiring how calm he was when he was asleep and not bursting into flames. 

"See? You can do it..."

You began addressing a wound in the center of his chest, but his chest began turning red. You gasped at his sudden roar, his breathing becoming ragged. You began caressing his head, whispering to him. 

"Easy, easy."

The sound of his heartbeat grew louder. 

"Sleep, sweet child... Fly away, wind. I'll be waiting for you till the morning comes. Sleep, sweet child... You're sailing to faraway lands. Follow my voice into the thick clouds. Sleep, sweet child... Fear nothing. In the land of your dream, someone keeps you in their thoughts."

You sang to him softly, hoping it would calm him like any lullaby could soothe a baby. 

His once-raising heartbeat and fiery red chest calmed, leaving him in a sleeping state. You finished cleaning his wounds before laying him on his side to let him sleep. 

Laying your body next to his, you allowed his warmth to help your shivering. The animal growled lowly at you for a moment but quickly stopped laying its body on the other side of Yoongi's.
