☆.•:Adventures Of 8 Pirates:•.☆ || ATEEZ • Dreamcatcher

• Every Story Has A Beginning •

Among the clouds, in time and space, the ship Destiny flies almost eternally. This landscape is seen as a piece of chocolate levitating through a huge infinite cotton candy. From there, 8 different voices always echo. Every voice has its owner. Their voices sing, shout, whisper. Their bodies dance, stand, tremble. Their emotions are displayed through laughter, crying and purely through their faces... The Black Pirates. That's what those who own and live on this ship are called. They are 8 members... -8 Hearts-8 Souls-8 Friends-... 8 Makes 1 Team... Forever!

From Hongjoong and Seonghwa perspective:

The captain examines the map, running a magnifying glass over the old papers on his desk. He is a little nervous. What if he fails? What if he would disappoint his friends with the mission that would be held in only a few days? Knock! Knock!

"Captain! Can I come in?" - Hongjoong stared at the door. "Of course! Come in, please... " With one cup of tea in his hand, and another in the other, Seonghwa approaches Hong's desk, letting the door to close by itself. "Here... I made you this tea to take a break and relax. I really kind of worry about you. You hustle too much for what's to come." - "*Sigh*, I know... But I'm afraid of failing, Hwa! The two of us have to protect the rest, we're older and I feel like that's our duty to them. Thanks for the tea, heh. Thanks for taking care of me. I am very grateful for your actions. You know that, right?"- Seonghwa sipped his tea more slowly, and closed his eyes. "You have nothing to do it for. I will always take care of you all! We are, and we'll always be a family. Ah! And by the way, I think I have an idea. Maybe it's as dangerous as the previous one, but I see that's kind of where you're headed, hun." - Hong shoved all the tea down his throat like it was a shot, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and then looked into the eyes of the oldest member of the group. "I'm listening!"

"Well, if only the two of us went to world Z, and left them all in San's care... or Yunho's, this doesn't matter that much, but only to go just you and me. As long as we both believe and say this journey is too dangerous, I see no better solution to protect our friends... what do you say?" Park looked at the captain with hopeful eyes.

Kim had big eyes, and stood still with his mouth half open, smiling more and more. He got up from his chair and jumped into the arms of the eldest. "That's the best idea I haven't thought of even once in my sub-conscious, Hwa! It's perfect... Everyone will be safe!" Seonghwa smiled with his eyes on the ground, holding Hongjoong's hands tightly. "And if we try, we will succeed together! Just the two of us...!" Hong said. The tall one blushed, and, avoiding eye contact with the leader, sipped a little more tea.

"Sorry! I didn't want it to seem like that, Seonghwa. Maybe you don't feel comfortable hearing that! I understand you perfectly... I am just very happy now that you gave me this idea! Hehe~!" - "It's fine! Don't worry about it... I'm glad I was helpful! Now I think we should finally let others know. I think they are confused." - "Yes! That's right. Let's let them know, and make an emergency meeting."

Hongjoong walked towards the door, and winked over his shoulder. Hwa didn't budge. "Hey, aren't you coming?" - "Oh uh... of course... I'm coming later, right now I think I'll... I think I'm going to eat something, go without me!"- Joong could sense something was wrong with Seong, but he had to do as the eldest said. "*Sigh* Ok, enjoy your meal, dear. If you need anything, call me!"

The door slowly closed behind Hongjoong, letting silence encompass the room where only the mother was still in. Seonghwa burst into tears. The tears were hot on his cheeks. His skin was cold, and his face was red. His heart pricked. Out of pain, he slowly put his hand on his chest. He felt bad that he didn't go with the captain to gather everyone. But this was not the reason why his state of happiness had turned into a low-level melancholy, but his great problem, which he has not been able to solve even today. That dream. The one that changed his life.

Alone, in the dark, going all the way forward. He no longer advances, being stopped by the word 'STOP', which is at his feet. In front of a store, presumably where people stray from the road and then rest, he sees a girl. The girl dances, happy, full of emotions. -her body seems to feel any rhythm... any musical note... Music echoed through her headphones in her ears- He admires her, and only with his eyes tries to catch a glimpse of her face. Her hair, black and clean, covered her appearance. He steps over the "advertisment", and as he approaches, she disappears. Then he looks restlessly and wonderfully around him, and then a little hope comes out of his soul that he will find that girl.

This is the dream that unfolds in his subconscious almost every midnight. "Ah! I need to calm down... I don't solve anything like that. I'd better go eat something, that is, until the session starts... I think Joong is thinking of me... I should refrain from such crises, I don't want anyone to worry about me. I care about them too much!"; Seonghwa wiped the tears from his eyes, took his empty cup from his desk, and walked out the door quietly.

After closing the door behind him, the fresh air catched his nose. Outside, the weather was nice. Seonghwa enjoys days like this one, but he always has something there inside his heart, and mind, that was making even the most beautiful morning, just a day that he wanted to end as soon as possible. He wanted to be happy. Happy like the days before that dream. Why is he not giving up yet? Maybe that dream is just a curse, but he has this pleasure to overthink that dream more then just to forget it... which makes his life worst. He's not really understandable.
