SHADOW SHIFTERS

CHAPTER SIX

- Don't let me catch you again with them down because it won't be good for you.

Later that night, y/n walked back to the gym.
- he is going to rip me to shreds if I don't get this damn exercise down once and for all.
She said as she walked down the hill towards the gym.
- hey there loser, I heard that your team leader chewed your head off in front of the whole team.
Changmin could barely form a straight sentence, laughing so hard.
- is none of your business, so please stay out of it.
- I don't know why does he waste his time, because you will always be a loser.
He said blocking her path.
- please move out of the way, he is waiting for me, I don't want him to have another reason...
- to yell at you again.
He teased her, she tried to walk around him but he moved again.
- move the hell out of the way.
- what if I don't?
- I'll make you move.

She turned to find Jungkook sitting in front of a tree.
- ha, you and what army.
- (chuckle) do you really want to know?
Jungkook asked getting up.
- let's see what you got wizard.
Changmin said.
Suddenly the sky turned darker than before.
- what the hell?
She said at the darkness was taking over.
- are you afraid?
He asked her.
- no, I'm not.
She said just staring around her, he looked the same but different at the same time, there was darkness but he glowed somehow.
- come and get it.
Jungkook said.
- what if I get her instead?
Jungkook gave him a smirk.
- you can try.
- let's see what you got wizard.
He try to move closer to y/n but before he could Jungkook appeared in front of her, and all around her.
- how the hell?
- didn't you hear her say that I was waiting for her?
- I don't care what she said, she is just a big ole thorn in my back.
- well if she is the thorn I'm going to turn into the dagger, just try to get close to her and I'll show you what I mean.
Changmin charged towards them but when he was close enough he crashed against an invisible wall.
- not strong enough?
- I'm going to kill you.
Changmin growled while moving closer but when he tried to destroy the shield, it threw him backwards.
- woah, that's cool as hell.
She said making Jungkook turn around towards her.
- you haven't seen anything yet darling.
He said lifting a hand, Changmin was being lifted from the ground.
- what are you doing bastard?
- nothing I'm just showing you that is really bad when you mess with me or one of my team members, also I heard what you said while I was laying down in the infirmary.
- do you think I care if you heard me?
- I know you don't.
Jungkook hooked him up from one of the tree branches.
- now shall we? We got things to deal with.
Jungkook said lifting a hand everything got back to normal.
- are you going to leave him hanging up there?
- for now, do you think is too much?
- not really, but what if no one finds him?
- well some animal or big bird will have a feast tonight.
Y/n laughed.
- so, what do you think I should do?
- just let him go, he is nothing but a bully anyway.
- I could be a bully too though.
- I have seen.
She assured him.
- me rising my voice earlier that is nothing, I promise you that this right here is nothing.
He said letting Changmin feet touch the ground again.
- you are dead wizard...
He said before taking off.
- oohh, I'm terrified.
- I am terrified.
- of him?
- nope, of you.
- (soft chuckle) come on let's go to the gym, we have to work of those shields.
He looked at her for brief second.
- wait a minute.
- what?
- they are up.
He said looking into her eyes.
- well after your outburst in the gym, I got scared so I'll do what it takes to keep them up.
- so, do I have to get to that extent so you do what you are supposed to do?
- no, I know that is something that I have no choice, so I have to do it.
- good, let me teach you a few things now that we are here.
He said walking in the gym.
- can you fight?
- I think...
Her words got cut short when he used his leg to sweep but of her feet, her back hit the floor at once.
- fuck...
She cursed with gritted teeth.
- well that's a no, what can you do y/n?
- please do not make fun of me, I was never one that agreed with playing outside.
- goodness, come on we have a lot of work.
He said offering his hand to help her up.
- please don't abuse me.
She asked, he nodded but once she was up he pulled her arm twisting taking her down again.
- didn't you just say that you were going to take it easy on me?
- I did.
- so what happened.
- this is me taking it easy.
- goodness I don't want to know when you go all the way in.
He smiled, then circled her, she tried to keep up with him but she swore that he was all over at once.
- come on darling, I know deep down you are feisty.
- one day I'm going to wipe that smirk of your face.
- you are going to try.
He corrected her.

Few hours later y/n felt the sweat dripping down her back, her ego was badly bruised along with her body.
- tomorrow, here at the same time,
- you are going to kill me.
- you will be fine, it will be easier when you finally develop your skills and traits.
They left the gym, it was a beautiful autumn night, a starry night.
- so, are you feeling better?
She asked.
- I am now, hopefully it will last longer this time.
- how often does it happen?
- lately is too often, but before it was once every two weeks or something like that.
- that's scary, were you a sickly child when you were growing up?
- just this pain, thankfully the pain is enough, I don't need anything else.
- how old are you?
- I just turned 25, how about you?
- 21.
She replied as they were making their way back to the dormitories,
- thank you for taking time to help me Jungkook.
- I have to, I told you when we met, I don't like losing, and I'll be damn if I'm going to start now.
- you are very competitive, aren't you?
- you have idea young lady.
He smiled but turned his head away, he knew if he looked into her eyes there would be trouble for him, he felt already like he was getting too close to her.
- where are your parents?
She asked not thinking about it.
- you are a very curious person, aren't you?

- my apologies if I'm rude by asking.
She said feeling stupid for even asking when they weren't close friends or anything like that.
- my mother is dead, she died when I was about 10 years or so, my father well he is the most powerful wizard in this land, he works for the King.
- do you ever see him?
- we don't see eye to eye, let's say that our relationship is complicated.
He said not wanting to meet her gaze.
- how about yours?
- they are farmers, they worked really hard since I was born, so I could be able to make it here to this place.
- do they hate you?
- of course not, if there is one thing that they always have given me, it was all their love.
- well at least one of us has a good relationship with their parents.
- I'm sorry to hear that Jungkook.
- is ok, is not your fault.
- did you meet your mother or did she died before you could even meet her.
- no she was around me until I turned 10 years old.
- am I making you uncomfortable?
- no darling, I'm way past that, my mother died a long, long time ago.
- (sigh)
- does any of your parents have any skills or abilities?
- my dad, he makes things grow, he can walk through the walls.
- and your mother.
- she is normal, no abilities.
- mhmm, that could be the reason why is taking you so long to develop yours.
