Chapter eighteen

Hoseok

"I don't think I will be able to get used to that scene we just witnessed."

My eyes still at the closed door, I smile. "I'm afraid you have to deal with it yourself, Yoojin. Because, I'm planning to stick around for life."

"Oh dear, we will have a bright future." Kenji exclaims. "Anyway. Shall I fill you in niw?"

"Go ahead." Eric take a seat at the round couch and invite us to join. "I'm curious to know."

"Hold on." I raise my hand and look at Nick. "Is that why you have been annoying Jungkook?"

Nick chuckles. "Yes and no. I had orders from Ria, but I had orders from Yoojin, too-"

"Which you have dismissed way too many times, by now." Yoojin cuts him.

Nick looks amused. "Yeah, I know. On the meant time, sorry but he was such a fun to annoy."

I shake my head. "Not funny, man. Not funny. He was begging me to kill you." Nick shrugs.

"Yeah, well, anyway. Back to the main topic. I know, what you're about to hear won't be easy to believe. Coming from my mouth, as it is. But you have to." Kenji continues. "Look at this." He takes out a small metallic thing and places it on the table in front. From the first, look I can't really understand what it is. As I examinate it, I realize it's a hilt, a knife's hilt. And not just a normal knife. More like a medieval type, like the one we see in video games. At the top of it rests a sapphire stone that looks much like the stones in my mask. And I can't help feel uneasy looking at it.

"Is that a knife hilt?" Eric asks.

"Exactly."

"And what's so special about that worn down hilt?" Yoojin looks annoyed.

Kenji inhales hard. "Man, I really wish Ria was the one doing that." He looks up at me. "Hold it in your hand."

I blink. "What?"

"Hold the hilt in your hand."

"Why?"

"Just trust me."

"No I won't. I just met you, man." I get angrier now.

Kenji looks frustrated. The punk. "Hold the damn hilt, Hoseok." His voice highter.

I raise my voice, too. "Do not dare order me around."

"Guys, relax." Eric tries to interfere.

"We are just doing what Ria asked us. Hoseok. Just hold the damn thing in your hand." Nick joins.

"Why you are so hang up on that stupid thing, anyway?" Yoojin seems as angry and pissed as me with the whole situation.

The tension goes on like that for mere seconds, with words and swears going around. Until I have enough. "Oh for fuck's shake. Here." I grab the hilt. "See? Happy now-" I don't have time to finish my sentence, as the hilt lights up and something like a force run through my body. I feel it within me, emerging from somewhere deep inside and damn, I feel awesome. And when I look at my hand, at the hilt on it, there is something like water coming out of it and forming the rest of the knife, making it a brand new weapon. I freeze. What the hell?

I don't need to look around to know Eric and Yoojin have the same reaction. I can hear Eric gasping, while Yoojin swears in surprise. And I hear Namjoon and Seokjin. too. When did they come inside? "Hoseok...?"

And it's Kenji's voice that breaks the silence. "Great. Now you are ready to listen to the rest."

Ready to listen what exactly? And... there is more!?
