The Unwritten Rule

CHAPTER 4

The siblings and cousins were always together. Jungkook always went on and challenged Yoongi and Namjoon to a sword fight. At the same time, Yoongi would always be near Jimin and protect him from any danger. Namjoon and Jungkook fought with each other to show who was the best in sword and archery, a healthy competition. Jungkook was so hyped up when it was about competition.

No matter how busy the Kings and Queens were, they would always have made time for each other. They have lunch once a month every year. The kids go back and forth daily between the two kingdoms with soldiers to protect all the princes.

One day, on a sunny day, the kids insisted on going outside the palace and having a picnic. The Queen and King agreed. Queen accompanied the kids with soldiers. Jungkook and Namjoon were having a sword fight with each other while Yoongi was resting under a tree with Jimin beside him. Since Jungkook and Namjoon are playing with swords, they maintain a healthy distance from others. "Don't go too far," Chae Won said to Jungkook and Namjoon, who were already running.

After some time Chae Won called out to the boys for snacks, but the boys couldn't hear because they were quite far. The Queen requested the soldier to find the kids and tell them about the snacks. The soldier obeyed and went to call them. Namjoon who was having a battle (mini) with Jungkook threw his sword on the ground and ran towards Chae Won, where Jimin and Yoongi were already present. 

The soldier followed Namjoon who was running clumsily, afraid he would fall. Jungkook saw how Namjoon threw the sword and ran "Ahh...Hyung!" Jungkook whined and went to pick up the sword. 

While Jungkook was picking up the sword he heard the bushes rustling, curiosity got the best of Jungkook. Jungkook with precautions proceeded forward. When he pushed the bushes side he found a cute little white rabbit. 

Jungkook was surprised by the tiny creature he was seeing. He wanted to touch/ catch the rabbit but the rabbit ran and jungkook was not the one to give up he ran behind the rabbit, due to his small legs Jungkook lost the rabbit he tried searching everywhere but to his disappointment, he couldn't find it. Jungkook turned around to return to his mother. 

When he turned around Jungkook didn't know where he was. He was lost. He turned 360 degrees but all he could see were trees and bushes. Jungkook got scared he was usually strong, but seeing an unfamiliar place surrounded by nothing but trees was really frightening for baby Jungkook. He tried calling out for his mother but there was no response. 

When Namjoon came Chae Won asked about Jungkook. Namjoon said that he was coming behind him. After waiting for a few minutes Chae Won started to get worried so she went to look for Jungkook but to her surprise, all she saw was two swords lying near the bush. She immediately started calling for Jungkook but there was no response she alerted the soldiers and told a soldier to send the news to the King.

Chae Won stood strong keeping the other kids close to her. Jimin was crying for his brother and afraid something would happen. While  Yoongi was trying his best to console Jimin. On the other hand, Namjoon kept blaming himself for not taking care of his brother. 

The Queen saw Namjoon and understood that he was blaming himself, she kneeled before Namjoon and took his small hands into hers "Joon-aa don't blame yourself. Nothing will happen to Jungkook he will come back and play with you again." Chae Won said in a sweet voice trying to be strong. 

"I am sorry Aunty... because..beca...." Namjoon was not able to control his tears. Chae Won immediately hugged Namjoon and started rubbing his back "It's okay namjoon-na ...Aunty is not angry ... it's okay" Chae Won said to Namjoon while controlling her tears. 

She can't cry in front of the kids and make them worry. After some time Namjoon composed himself with the help of Chae Won and Yoongi. Yoongi held both Jimin and Namjoon's hands with his two little hands and consoled them. Chae Won saw that and smiled sweetly.

Soon the King arrived with more soldiers. When Chae Won saw the King coming towards them, she informed the soldiers to keep an eye on the kids and went towards the King. Chae Won saw the King ordering the soldiers while coming towards her side. Once the King saw the Queen he dismissed everyone to continue the search for Jungkook and went toward Chae Won. 

When Chae Won saw Ji Ho coming towards her, her composed self broke. She cried in her King's arms. Ji Ho tried his best to calm Chae Won down. "Good job honey. You have done a good job taking care of the situations and kids. I know it must have been hard for you to be calm and composed with Jungkook missing." Ji Ho said while stroking Chae Won's hair. 

Chae Won looked at Ji Ho and asked "He will be alright right? We will find him soon right?" Chae Won asked looking at Ji Ho's eyes. "Of course. Have you forgotten how strong our bunny is?" Ji Ho said with a smile to make Chae Won rest her racing heart. 

Chae Won chuckled a bit. "Appa!..." Jimin with tears in his eyes came running toward Ji Ho. Ji Ho immediately picked up Jimin who was running towards him "Aigoo... my baby why are you crying?" Ji Ho asked while wiping the tears that were running down Jimin's face. "Ap..Appa...Hyu..Hyung..." Jimin said while crying before Ji Ho could reply he heard "Mini!...." Ji Ho turned and saw Yoongi and Namjoon running towards them. 

After seeing Ji Ho, Yoongi and Namjoon stopped and bowed to the King "Hello Your Majesty" both Yoongi and Namjoon greeted the King. Ji Ho smiled "Hello yoongi and namjoon. Looks like you have given a hard time to Yoongi, mini"  Ji Ho asked Jimin who was now pouting "No Your Majesty. He heard your voice and wanted to see you that's why he came running that's it" Yoongi said defending Jimin "Oh right?" Ji Ho said with a smile. 

Ji Ho looked at Jimin and said "Jimin-na don't worry nothing will happen to your hyung. We will find him okay?" Ji Ho said "Really? Promise?" Jimin asked while showing his pinky. "Yeah promise," Ji Ho said while locking his pinky with jimin's "Now be a good boy and listen to Omma and Yoonig hyung okay?" Ji Ho said while putting Jimin on his feet "Yes.." Jimin said "Yoongi please take care of jimin" Ji Ho said while looking at Yoongi "Don't worry Your Majesty. I will look after Jimin" Yoongi said while holding Jimin's hand firmly "Thank you" Ji Ho stood up and looked at Chae Won and nodded his head assuring her.
