A Desire for the Moon

"What? How did he get away from that?" Moonbae was fuming. He was on the phone with Ron. "I don't want to hear those pesky excuses. Find him as soon as possible and kill both of them. I don't want them to enter the empire." He cut the call without listening to any further explanation. He huffed and turned to Sam, "Block all the entrances of the empire. He should not enter the empire. He is with Namjoon. And one man can't save Seokjin for too long."

Sam bowed to him and left the room.

Moonbae released a huge sigh before closing his eyes. How can someone survive a fucking blast? And where can they run away from that forest? It was so dense that even the hikers were scared of going in. He was also irritated by the fact that Namjoon wasn't poisoned with other royal guards. Moonbae's eyes went wide.

Namjoon.

Where can he go to hide Seokjin when almost the entire world knows about Seokjin? Where can they hide when Namjoon is wanted in so many countries?

His hideouts!

He took out his phone and called Ron again, "Ron, raid all the hideouts of Namjoon and his gang. I am sure he will hide Seokjin in one of those hideouts. And don't disappoint me this time!"

As he cut the call, there was a knock on his door followed by Sam entering the room. He bowed to Moonbae again, "I have started blocking all the entrances."

Moonbae nodded, "Keep a close eye on Jungkook and all the people close to Seokjin. I am sure Namjoon will try to contact them. I have told Ron to look for all of his hideouts. Start raiding all of the Seokjin's hideouts."

"Yes, sir."

He was about to leave when Hanseo entered the room. He looked around the room as he walked towards Moonbae. "You are so pathetic? Can't even carry on a simple task? That's why you don't plan anything without me."

Moonbae clenched his jaws. He thought, at least this time, his father would praise him. It was a foolproof plan. He took a broken breath, "We are searching for them. They can't go too far. Seokjin is fatally injured."

"But he is not dead!" Hanseo yelled. "Do you know how hard it is to hide your incompetencies? If only you were even one percent like your brother."

"I am not like him!" Moonbae snapped, "He was a coward who took his own life after one loss. I am still standing here in front of you because I am fighting back. At least I didn't give up on my life aft-"

Slap!

A shiver ran through Moonbae's spin. He shouldn't have said that. His brother was a soft topic for his father. He held his cheek as he looked at Hanseo. "I am sorry, abeoji."

Hanseo huffed and left the room. After a few seconds Moonbae looked at Sam, "Report back to me after you are done."

Sam bowed to him and left the room.

Moonbae stumbled upon the table near him. He took a deep sigh. When did he start hating his brother so much? He used to love him. For Moonbae, his brother was an idol. Why would he commit suicide and make everyone's life difficult?

No.

He should be focused on Seokjin right now. He sat on the chair and took a deep breath. He should make some calls.

It was too bright for him to keep his eyes closed. His head felt so heavy that he didn't want to open his eyes. But the brightness was just too much. He groaned and tried to turn away from the source of light. As soon as he moved, he groaned again in pain. He quickly covered his sides. All the incidents that had happened flashed in front of his eyes like a movie.
