Dreams of Arcadia

Y/N PoV

We came to a stairwell and went down a spiral staircase, into an entrance area where we saw a door that must have been a side entrance.

"We didn't even have to go through this parkour..." San slapped his hand to his forehead and Jin shook his head while I laughed.

"But it was more fun this way," I said and took them both by the hand to pull them into the main hall.

"Well, it was worth the effort!" San exclaimed enthusiastically when he saw all the equipment that had been set up.

"A popcorn machine." Jin was happy and ran towards it, while I approached the bouncy castle, from which I heard noises. Yoongi was lying inside, probably trying to retreat, but Hobi and Yunho were jumping around him, giggling, so he kept rolling around.

"Come on hyung... You can sleep later, jump with us." Hobi urged him, but he only grumbled in annoyance.

"Jung Hoseok... I'll tie you to the end of the slide so that everyone's ass lands on your face. What was that like? When we were still alive? Oh come on, hyung... You can sleep when you're dead... I'm dead Hoseok... dead as a doornail, let me sleep already." Yoongi grumbled and after waving to the other two as a greeting, I moved away again, I didn't want to be dragged into this. It wasn't the only bouncy castle here and voices could also be heard from the next one. When I climbed in, I recognized my cousin and Minho chasing Hongjoong and Jiyong with an inflatable hammer, giggling like little kids, which also made me laugh.

"Ah little mouse... Come on, join us, we have to catch the hobbits." He called out to me and Jiyong turned to him.

"Did you just call me short, Kibum?" he asked, half outraged, but my cousin took the opportunity to fry him, whereupon Hongjoong bravely threw himself in the way and sacrificed. Kibum hit him with force, which didn't hurt, but threw the younger man off his feet and made him fall over, whereupon Minho threw himself on top of him, a rope in his hand, and then tied him up.

"We've got one!" he shouted confidently and Changbin came into the bouncy castle with Jimin and Felix. They held the well-tied Hongjoong by his feet and legs and carried him to the ladder, the highest of the five inflatable slides, and released him at the top to a loud roar. Instead of sliding, he rolled down the slide because they had put him sideways and screamed until he was at the bottom. I watched with wide eyes, not realizing that Jiyong was being carried away too. They threw him into the middle of a trampoline, where they then started jumping next to him and repeatedly threw him into the air.

"Has some kind of war broken out here, or what's happening?" asked San, who was totally unimpressed when he saw his bound leader lying on the ground and didn't help him when he was carried back up.

"I rather wonder why they're hunting hobbits but Changbin is on their side," I giggled. All eyes were suddenly on him and he widened his eyes.

"No... Guys... we can talk about anything... we're a team..." he shouted in panic as they began to circle him like a pride of lions.

"Oh, there's Seonghwa hyung too!" San exclaimed delightedly, pointing to a figure stuck to the climbing wall with duct tape.

"What have we got ourselves into here? Namjoon is tied to one side of a seesaw while Jinyoung and Youngjae are sitting on the other side and laughing." Jin explained what he had seen.

"I don't know... but look, back there at the table... Bora and Minji, with Daesung, who supposedly never drinks... and there are already at least 4 bottles of vodka empty..." San pointed in that direction.

"Those two don't drink vodka, they love cocktails and champagne... They're guaranteed to have emptied by the boys... That's why the whole mess..."
