kookie's kingdom

~ last part of oneshot ~

At the Taekook mansion, Kookie had drifted back to sleep after Tae left for work. He was suddenly awakened by the sound of his phone ringing. Still half-asleep, he grabbed the phone and saw who was calling. He quickly answered.

"Yes, hyung? What's wrong?" Kookie's voice was groggy and tired.

On the other end, Suga's tone was serious. "Kook, there's a meeting today at the JKSR Hall. It's important, and you need to be there. There's a case you have to solve, and there's an officer involved that you can't refuse. If we're late, Seoul city could be in danger."

Kookie sat up slowly, trying to shake off the sleep. "Okaaayyyyyyyyyyy..." he replied, still processing what Suga was saying.

Hearing the sluggishness in Kookie's voice, Suga asked, "What's going on, Kook?"

Kookie sighed, leaning back against the headboard. "You know, hyung, yesterday was my wedding... and because of this secret mission, Tae ended up topping me last night."

There was a brief pause before Suga, clearly shocked, exclaimed, "Tae topped you?!"

Kookie nodded slightly, even though Suga couldn't see him. "Yeah... and he said he’s going to figure out the secret behind my strong body soon."

Suga tried to keep his composure but couldn’t help it. He burst into laughter, the sound echoing through the phone, making Kookie pout on the other end.

"Hyung, please don’t tease me!" Kookie whined, feeling a mix of embarrassment and frustration as Suga continued to laugh.

After a few moments, Suga managed to catch his breath. "Sorry, Kook, but that’s just... wow. Anyway, be at the meeting. We’ll talk more about this later."

Kookie sighed again, realizing he had no choice. "Alright, hyung. I'll be there."

As he ended the call, Kookie couldn't help but think about how quickly everything had changed. Yesterday was supposed to be about starting a new life, but now, he had a mission that could determine the fate of an entire city.

Kookie arrived at the JKSR Hall dressed in all black—black shirt, black jeans, black boots, and a black mask. As he walked in, everyone stared at him in shock because it was clear that he was struggling to walk properly.

Suga, who knew exactly what had happened, tried to keep a straight face. Namjoon, Seokjin, Hoseok, Eunwoo, Yeonjun, and Soobin all noticed Kookie's condition and began to ask, "What happened, Kookie?"

Kookie, trying to play it off, simply said, "I just fell."

But Suga couldn’t hold it in any longer and burst out laughing. Kookie shot him a glare, making Suga quickly stop laughing. Trying to regain his composure, Suga said, "Alright, let's focus on the meeting now."

Kookie sighed, trying to ignore the lingering embarrassment as everyone’s attention shifted back to the matter at hand.

The meeting began with Hoseok informing everyone, "Mr. Lee is attempting to destroy Seoul. I did some research and found out that in exactly 10 days, he plans to execute his plan. The reason it's so critical is because the bomb he’s planning to use hasn't arrived yet, but once it does, it has the power to obliterate the entire city of Seoul in just two seconds."

Yeonjun added, "The officer Kookie will be working with on this case should be arriving any moment now."

Kookie, looking concerned, asked, "Can I tell Tae about my secret mission?"

Eunwoo nodded, "Hmm, you should. Otherwise, when you leave the house to work on the case, Tae will definitely start questioning you."

Kookie smirked, relieved, "Okay."
