"A Choice Made"

The time was now. Jin-Su would be watching over the fight, & even making sure a magical barrier was strong enough it couldn't be broken. Fox remained unseen, but he was watching over from Eternity. 

Jin-Su began as Yeonjun & Taehyun took their places at either side of the clearing, "Soobin & Kai can choose who they wish to assist. Beomgyu will remain by me as his ability contains magic. Any other questions ?"

Kai then posed the question that ultimately made Taehyun smirk like the Cheshire Cat. "What if no one chooses to support a side ?" Jin-Su expected such a question, "Then this fight will solely be up to its two competitors."  Jin-Su said in a tine that suggested something dark, but his comforting smile covered it.

Soobin approached Yeonjun one last time to try & talk him out of this fight. "왜 이렇게 가치가 있나요? 왜 태현 씨를 본받아야 한다고 느끼시나요? 저는 다 만난 지 얼마 안 된 거 아는데 이건 유치한 것 같아요, 형." (Why is this so worth it to you ? Why do you feel you need to make an example out of Taehyun ? I know we all just met, but this seems childish to me, hyung.) Yeonjun rolled his eyes as he glanced at Soobin, "This can't be avoided. A power like that will bring nothing good to the table..."

Kai tried to sway Taehyun to back off as well. Especially with the looming dark threat their fight could end horribly. "Hyung, you can also stop this. Fighting Yeonjun hyung will not solve anything. End this..." Taehyun sighed as he looked from Kai to Beomgyu. He knew he could end this, but his pride wasn't going to allow him to. Why should he be the bigger person when Yeonjun is singling him out under the guise of what powers are useful ?

"저는 그와 싸워야 해요, 카이. 이 일을 해결할 방법이 없어요. 지금 당장 일어날 필요가 있어요..." (I have to fight him, Kai. There is no way around this. It needs to happen now...) Kai, albeit deflated stood next to Beomgyu with Soobin following not far behind them. It wasn't long before the battle begun. 

The battle started off like any other fight. However, it quickly descended into complete chaos. Taehyun did manage to possess Yeonjun' body briefly, but that didn't last. He punch Yeonjun a few times from where he had him pinned to the ground. 

With a deranged scream Yeonjun kicked Taehyun off of him, cloning himself as a collective physical assault on Taehyun' body. This needed to end now. Once for all. 

Taehyun was running away trying to create some distance between him & Yeonjun. Yeonjun was relentlessly making sure that wasn't possible. The others needed to step in before it was too late. 

Soobin stepped in, flying Taehyun out of Yeonjun' fierce reach. Taehyun was extremely bruised up & was bleeding at this point. Kai froze Yeonjun & his clones to where they stood. "LET ME GO ! THIS ISN'T OVER !", Yeonjun screamed as Jin-Su called the end of the fight. Beomgyu came forward & removed Yeonjun' magic from him, containing it for as long as it needed to be. 

"That concludes the fight. What is the verdict ? Who has won ?", Jin-Su said in a comical tone getting a disgusted look from everyone besides Yeonjun. Beomgyu snarled at Yeonjun as he said his next words slowly & carefully, "Taehyun will come back to our dorm whether you agree or not. I will not give you your power back until I deem you are ready. You will leave the dorm & will not be asked back as long as you carry on this way. Did you understand all of that, hyung ?" 

Hyung. Beomgyu spat the word out with such disgust it seemed as it was intended to offend Yeonjun' feelings. "You all may leave. See that Sir Taehyun rests from his injuries & leave Sir Yeonjun' things outside the dorm for me to fetch," Jin-Su said as the others left them alone in the destroyed clearing. Fox appeared & sent Jin-Su to fetch Yeonjun' things while they spoke alone. 

"죄송해요, 못해서... 태현이 못 죽였는데..." (I'm sorry. I couldn't do it... I couldn't kill Taehyun...) Yeonjun said now free of the frozen restraints from Kai & falling to his knees in shame. Tearing up. 

Fox made him stand as he walked with him  in the clearing, "넌 날 실망시킨게 아니야. 살인은 불멸을 얻기 위한 하나의 제안일 뿐이야. 네가 관심이 있다면 다른 방법이 있어..." (You have not failed me, child. The kill was only one suggestion to gain immortality. There is another way if you are interested...) Yeonjun wiped his tears as he glanced at Fox with wonder. Was there truly another way without murdering a friend ? "There is ? I am interested."

The deity took note of his enthusiasm as he offered him a solution that Yeonjun may take now that his "friends" have essentially put him out for the time being. Fox reliving his own memories & sentiments of the eternal council. "Seclusion is your answer. Being one with yourself. The foxes of the wild like Jin-Su will always be around to help, comfort, or guide you. The anger you feel should subside with time. Do you accept this option, Yeonjun ?"

Yeonjun had no other choices. He took it too far with his friends & now was being pushed out as he had done to Taehyun. He also had no powers at the moment. "I accept." 

Fox simply nodded as he lead Yeonjun to the fox den. "This will be your home from now on. Feel free to make it your own. Understood ?" Yeonjun thanked him before being completely alone once again...
