When they reach the next town, Namjoon hands both of the humans plenty of money for starting their life. "You are free now, so go live your lives to the fullest." He softly smiles and pats both of their heads.
The moment he turns to mount his horse, both cry out and hold onto him. He turns and looks at them in shock as they cling to him with teary eyes.
"They are scared. They have been slaves for so long that I do not think that they know how to survive on their own." Seokjin softly explains as he dismounts and walks over to the crying pair. When he hugs both of them, he looks at his lover with big eyes.
"They can travel with us." Namjoon softly chuckles as Seokjin's puppy eyes attack him.
"Man, you are wrapped around his finger." Jungkook laughs as Namjoon quickly gives in to Seokjin's puppy eyes.
"Tell me about it." Namjoon sighs and softly laughs.
"You two can stay with us until you are ready to go on your own." Seokjin softly tells the two crying humans.
When Namjoon sets Yoongi on his horse and Jungkook sets the smaller one on his horse, they both stop crying and hug the horses.
"Yoongi, hold on tight. We are about to ride off quickly." Namjoon softly tells the small human then spurs his horse into action.
Both humans squeal in excitement as they race through the desert. The taste of freedom is flowing through their spirits.
If they want to stay with us, we need to teach them how to defend themselves. The life we lead is very dangerous, especially for such small humans. Namjoon tightens his embrace around Yoongi to keep him safely seated on his racing steed.
"Little human, what is your name?" Jungkook asks the smiling human. "Jungkook." The warrior points to himself, so the human understands what he is asking.
"Jimin." The small human smiles and looks at the large warrior.
"Jimin. Nice name." Jungkook smiles and then spurs his horse to run faster.
The group rides until the sun becomes a golden sliver on the horizon. Jimin and Yoongi gasp when a large marble house suddenly appears in front of them. They both follow the large men into the residence and then smile when they recognize that it is the same place as before.
"So, I have been thinking. We need to train them how to fight since they wish to stay with us. However, our weapons are made for elves and larger beings. They are small humans." Namjoon points out as they settle down for a meal.
"They can become archers," Seokjin suggests and looks at the pair who sit down on the floor and quietly wait for their food.
"All of our bows are made to be our size." Namjoon reminds Seokjin who nods in agreement.
"We can still teach them archery. They will grow into it." Jungkook answers and sits down next to the two humans.
Jimin and Yoongi look at the warrior in shock as he sits next to them on the floor. Shocking them even more, Seokjin and Namjoon place all of the platters on the floor and join them. Seokjin places plenty of food on two plates for the two humans and then sets the plates in front of them. Both humans quietly watch as the three men eat while they wait for them to finish before they themselves eat.
Seokjin notices this, so he shoves a grape into each of their mouths. Both humans squeak in surprise as the grapes pop in their mouths filling their mouths with an unknown sweetness. Their eyes grow in shock as they look at the red grapes in front of them. Yoongi carefully picks up a grape then pushes it into Jimin's mouth and smiles.
