Child Of Stardust || TAEKOOK ✔️

"Jungkook! Will you tell me what happened?! Why are we going back? What about Jimin and others?!"

Hara's voice filled the car. I was too numb to speak. I didn't know what happened to Jimin or Gemma and uncle. I wanted to ask Jungkook but couldn't. The lump in throat was getting larger slowly. I was afraid if I ask Jungkook something right now, his answer might not be able to keep me sane.

"Noona, I'll explain everything later but for now please drive fast..!"

Jungkook was clearly panicked, his tone of talking said it all. I didn't have the nerve to console him or comprehend everything in a better way. I wanted to skip this moment to be in the better future. Better future, I couldn't seem to picture a better future for past few months. It's like everything was affecting my power of imagination as well. What was all this?

All of a sudden, I heard loud noises near our car. It looked like someone was shooting at us. Hara was having difficulty while driving. What was happening!

"Shit! They've found us!"

Jungkook pulled me closer. I saw his eyes going completely black, just like Yoongi's I've seen before. His right hand was wrapped around e securely and left hand was busy doing some weird gestures.

Multiple voices came through his watch, speaking in that unknown language. Jungkook was replying at the same time doing all those gestures to keep the attackers away from us.

Suddenly a bright light passed Hara's window. She got distracted and the car took a sudden turn.

"Hara!"

"I'm fine! I'm fine!"

I saw Yoongi and Hoseok outside the car. The attacks were decreased but didn't stop. Jungkook once again almost yelled, his hands still wrapped around me,

"We've to reach Taehyung's place! Fast! His place is secured!"

I didn't know what did he mean by that. But I was too overwhelmed to speak anything. My head was hurting already.

The car stopped right in front of my place. Yoongi and Hoseok kept defending us all the way. Jin joined them in the middle. Jungkook was occasionally helping them out since I saw his eyes going completely black to normal continuously. I would have appreciated him looking hot with that if I were in my right senses.

Hara quickly got out of the car to help me but Jungkook was quick to pick me up in bridal style. I immediately wrapped my hands around his neck and before I could register what was happening, he ran towards the gate with Hara following him beside.

We didn't stop until Hara opened the door and we were finally inside.

"Jungkook..you can put me down.."

My voice was hoarse for no speaking for a long time. He put me down carefully and held me till I was able to stand properly on my own. My eyes went wide when I realised who was there in my living room.

"Chim!"

Jimin was there with Gemma, uncle and Namjoon. Fuck he was fine, everyone was fine. I almost ran towards him for a hug and he caught me in the middle. Pretty sure I was hugging the life out of him as if my existence depended on this.

"You're okay! You're okay! Oh my God! You're okay"

I kept chanting. He was indeed okay. I didn't let go of him until I was satisfied and believed he was indeed there and I was not dreaming. I saw Gemma coming towards us with confusion written all over her face. But before she could tell me anything I embraced her too. I was hugging Gemma and Jimin at the same time.

"You're okay.."

That came more as a reassurance to myself. I let got of a breath I didn't know I was holding for how long. When I broke the hug Yoongi, Jin and Hoseok were already inside the room. But my focus wasn't there. Gemma's eyes were staring at my bump intently as if she's trying to believe this was real indeed. She put her hand to touch my bump but immediately drew it back.

"W-what.."

The moment of truth. I saw Jimin holding Gemma by her shoulders and she immediately looked at him with questioning gaze. Jimin tried to smile at her. His soft gaze making her calm down. There was so much to explain.

"Taehyung"

The voice startled me, because it was from someone unexpected. Uncle. He was sitting on my couch. His eyes were at me, unfocused. How did he remember me? Jimin and Gemma were shocked too.

My legs were going towards him automatically. When I was too close, he put his hand on my face and started tracing my features as if a baby trying to memorise something. I closed my eyes to let him explore freely. I felt like doing that.

"Taehyung..it was you...it was you all along!"

Jimin came to him and sat down near his knees.

"Uncle..do you remember us?"

Even though they've been gone through a traumatic experience, Jimin managed to keep calm and suppress his previous emotions while talking to uncle.

Uncle didn't seem to care about Jimin's question. His eyes were stuck at my face. I couldn't understand what was he trying to do.

"You're the chosen one of pulvis stellae..!"

"Excuse me?"

Namjoon interrupted him. He looked surprised and serious. I saw others following him. They looked at us as if we're some kind weird creatures of zoo..! The irony.

"The prophecy.. it's true after all.."

What was uncle talking about? Namjoon had a frown on his face. He was trying hard to comprehend uncle's words it looked.

"Long ago I met a girl at my first job. She was sweet and caring. I had never seen a girl like her before. She used to look at this world like there's so many things to love and cherish. We grew close to each other..and I confessed to her one day but she rejected without telling me any reason. But later... I found out she was not a human. I told her it didn't matter what she was but she was beautiful inside out. Time went by, I got to know about her species. She was a...black hole. We trusted each other but there were things that she still kept to herself. Until one day there was an attack, she was to be punished because she broke the rule..got closer to a human..so she escaped, went far away from me so that I won't be harmed..after that I never saw her again..."

"But before her escape she told me everything, how the king of pulvis stellae was. King Jiahéng was into a conspiracy to colonise the other planets specially earth. The prophecy.. it was known to his close ones high authorities only. They were all supporters of him but not she. She found it wrong..and told me about the prophecy"

"There will be born
a pulvis stellaian and a human
in indifferent time
yet in different part of space
and their offspring will be
the key of the tyranny's end.
Mates of same sex,
yet different in species
will be each other's forever
to bring utmost peace"
