Wooyoung




He stumbled his way back inside the dark and dead silent cabin, panting heavily. The sun started to rise and a random door suddenly flung open.

"You snuck out didn't you!?" Yunho startled him, pointing his fingers at Wooyoung also panting.

"Listen- I saw-"

"Hongjoong!" Mingi shouted as he woke up from his sleep, accidentally banging his head on the wall beside him.

Wooyoung and Yunho blankly stared at him, breathing heavily.

"What's all the noise?" all the bedroom doors started to open, one by one heads popped out to see what was going on. And frowning when they see Wooyoung all heavily clothed and armed.

Wooyoung took off all his thick clothings, "It's Seonghwa, I saw him."

Everyone audibly gasped.

"Where did you see him? He's alive! Why didn't come with you? Did he even see you?" he was showered with endless questions.

"He's trapped in there, I know it. They turned him in to one of them, Seonghwa is a winter spirit now." Wooyoung panted.

San raised his brows, "A winter spirit? Aren't they immortal?"

"I fear so, they keep him in the center of the mountains. God he must be freezing there for the past three years." he couldn't imagine his own friend become an immortal although there was a high chance he already was.

His new appearance said a lot.

Suddenly the floor beneath their feet started shaking, along with heavy footsteps running to them. Mingi's large figure came sprinting in, "Hongjoong!" he yelled.

"Well he's not here." Yunho stared at him.

"No I had a dream of him! He's on the Waiti Island!"

"What?" Jongho furrowed his brows together, "What is he even doing there?"

"The fuck is Waiti Island?" Wooyoung says.

Mingi panted, "It's a large island where all the dangerous pirates dwell, whoever dares to cross their island will be terrorized. Hongjoong happened to come across the island last night, thinking he'd managed past them."

"And?" Yeosang questioned.

"He got captivated." Mingi and Jongho answered at the same time.

Jongho checked the time, "Mingi get the ship ready, we're saving him."

"Wait hold on. How are we so sure that he's actually captivated? I mean what if it was just a dream?" Wooyoung stated.

"Mingi doesn't dream normal like us. When he sleeps, he only sees scenarios that are happening in real life and messages. His dreams are never wrong." Jongho responded.

"Going by ship would take days, you know how far the Waiti Island is." Mingi checked in.

Jongho sighed, "You're right but we don't have a choice, we have to save him somehow."

"Take the dragons." Yunho says, "You'll get there faster."

"You're coming with us."



"Atleast some of us has to stay behind to watch the cabin and the other dragons, many hunters are stealing dragons they find nowadays." Yunho reminded, arming himself with a bullet proof corset that once belonged to Hongjoong but was left behind.

"I'll stay." Yeosang volunteered.

The taller chuckles, "I already had a feeling you would do it willingly."

"I'll stay behind aswell." Jongho stepped in.

"Take San with you, he's a great aimer." Yeosang suggested.

That leaves Wooyoung, Yeosang and Jongho to stay behind and watch the dragons.

Wooyoung dragged a bag filled with meat in it for the dragons to take with him so they wouldn't run out of energy, "What a shame, I really wanted to punch Hongjoong because it took him too long to return to the point where you'll have to save him."

"I think Mingi would do that for you." Jongho snorted.

Yunho rolled his eyes and approached the dragons who will be staying behind, "I'm trusting you guys with them."

"They'll be find, Yeosang is there." Mingi reassured, earning glares from the other two.

"And you guys make sure you'll bring Hongjoong back." he chuckled to himself, watching San walk around the dragon.

He walks up to him, cupping his face. "Please don't do anything stupid."

San stupidly smiled, "I won't."

"Don't get distracted, you know you get easily distracted." he reminded, tapping his cheeks.

"Yes my love, I'm aware."

Wooyoung smile turned in to a sad one after realizing he would be away for some time. "Please come back home safe."

The other pulled him in for a short kiss.

"I promise to." he says, parting their lips.

"I'm going to miss you." Wooyoung's arms tightly wrapped around his neck, hugging him.

"I'll miss you too." he feels San's gentle hands around his waist, kissing his forehead and hugging him back for the last time before they leave.

"Anytime you're ready." Mingi says with a smug as he earned a nudge on the side by Yunho.

Wooyoung rolled his eyes and removes himself from San, "Take care."

"I love you." San pecked his lips again, bringing back the smile to Wooyoung's face.

"I love you too."

From there, the other group climbed up on each dragon. After biding their good byes they made to leave. Their figures unrecognizeable the further they flew away.

Will they make it out alive in the Waiti's Island?

The most dangerous pirate island?

Wooyoung could only hope so.

"Can someone tell me why it's snowing in the middle of spring?" Jongho stared up in the sky as snowflakes started to fall from it.

Wooyoung's mouth went dry.

"It's the winter spirits, they're around."
