Everything stopped, time stopped, Hongjoong was falling inside a black void, there was no sound, no music, no nothing, just simply falling into the dark abyss, did in he in fact die? was he dead, it was nothing but everything as Hongjoong's heart raced, he had no idea where he was falling too.
Then the screams started, the whispers, of men, women, children, they seemed to be lost souls screaming, begging for mercy, to be let out, the screams were so loud, Hongjoong wished they stopped, they were piercing his brain, making it mushy, as he kept falling, he felt something, he felt free.
In instant moment, blue glow circled around Hongjoong, the sight was mesmerizing, circling around spinning, as the blue glow increased in glowing, eventually growing enough to rapture the whole dark abyss of the endless shadow pit.
It was calming, and beautiful, Hongjoong could see the sea, stars, and the moon in blue hues appear in the glow, then, the end was close, Hongjoong looked down, the bottom having spikes, tall spikes, fear ran right through Hongjoong>
"Nonono, i- i dont wanna die, please s-someone save me!" Hongjoong cried out, as he closed his eyes, waiting for the embact, however it never came.
When Hongjoong opened his eyes, he was floating on the top of the blue glow like a cloud, tears left his eyes, heart raced, he never been that scared in his life, he honestly thought he was going to die. "P-please just t-take me h-home."
Suddenly, Hongjoong felt a wave of energy go through him, the blue glow radiating around him, causing the environment around to shake, soon the pit started to crack, revealing its rocky transformations, loud crushing could be heard, the pit was falling onto itsself, pulling and breaking.
Hongjoong watched in complete horror and amusement, as the pit seemed to warp itself, the screams finally stopped, and Hongjoong finally felt of the shackles on his mind, as he closed his eyes, and immediately thought of someone, Seonghwa.Everything went black, quiet, it was just a void of nothingness, he felt like a vessel in the air, being everything and nothing around, soon, the sound of the sea, singing in whooshes, the familiar smell of wood, the boat, it took his deep breath, coming back into his human body.
A pair of lips on his, warm and sweet, his heart picked up the moment he realized what sensations were happening to him, he slowly started kissing back, the other kisser had startled movement as Hongjoong slowly wrapped his arms around the body, he slowly opened his eyes.
Revealing Seonghwa, he smiled in between the kisses, "Hwa, you look so pretty." He whispered in the kisses, relaxing into his rhythm, Seonghwa was so blushed and flustered, but he honestly had no idea on when to stopping kissing, so he kept doing it.
"Yknow, i wish this wasn't another allusion, i wish you were real." Hongjoong muttered, which made Seonghwa to perk up. "Um- Hongjoong, you are real, i- i- brought you back-"
The words processed in Hongjoong head, departing their passionate lips as he looked at him, staring, as he tried to make sense of the situation they were in, blinking rapidly, Hongjoong had one solution.
He preceded the slap the shit out of Seonghwa, to see if he was in-fact real, of course Seonghwa jolting back, with a real mark on his face, His eyes wide, he pressed his palm against the mark
"W-why did you do that?!"
Hongjoong gulped, as he could feel his body tighten, he pushed himself against the end of the bed in the corner, a blush appeared on his face despite the very disgusted look he gave to Seonghwa as if he didn't enjoy the kiss they just shared."I- i- why the fuck are you k-kissing me?!" Shock and fear could be felt in his voice.
"That's h-how i saved you-" Seonghwa looked at him wide-eyed, he thought humans liked it, he saw them kissing all the time, he did understand it was a act of affection, did he perhaps do a bad job? was his first kiss not good?
Hongjoong, eyed him and up, as he was in totally disbelief about what just happened, that he kissed a dirty thief, then something sparked in his mind.
Where the fuck he is?! the last thing he remembered he was on the beach, and- and he saw Seonghwa-
Did Seonghwa kidnap him?! was he poisoned, is that why kept having those intense daydreams?
He should've not his guard down around Seonghwa, how stupid was he?!
All of sudden, Hongjoong lounged at Seonghwa- well- tried to- he fell hard the moment his body got out of the bed, as his body was weak, extremely, his legs wobbled as a pain shot up through them, causing him to whimper in pain.
Seonghwa quickly retreated his side, "Hongjoong you must be careful! you just woke up your muscles are stiff from not moving and weak from the poison, please, be careful" Warmth and concern was in Seonghwa's eyes, his blue orbits staring at Hongjoong with intense care and compassion.
Hongjoong couldn't believe the sweet words that spewed from his mouth, that he did poison him, Hongjoong didn't bother to listen to the thief, he just rolled his eyes, as he tried to find the strength to push himself up from the ground, his arms shaking, as he grunted his theeth, failing once again quite horridly, however, Hongjoong seemed undefeated, pushing his body more and more, Seonghwa watched in annoyance and pain, despite trying to stop Hongjoong, he wouldn't let go, falling again and again, Seonghwa could see the bruises forming, he could see tiredness in Hongjoong's eyes, at one point, his body would not leave the ground at all, it really was a mixture of his ego, being sick, and also not having his sea legs, Seonghwa could only think of Hongjoong's terrified face once they find out they are close to Morocco and far far away from the Bahamas.
"Hongjoong.' Seonghwa said very sternly, trying to get him to stop, as Hongjoong took deep breaths into the floor, as fighting your own body is very exhausting.
As Hongjoong kept pushing, eventually Seonghwa had no other choice, except to use his magic on him, putting him to rest, the old anger remained in Hongjoong, at least his Hongjoong was back and fine, or, well, not dead, Seonghwa sighed, picking him up bridal style and tucking him into bed.
Hongjoong looked so adorable and sweet when he was actually sleeping and not in a deep trance in his mind, Hongjoong needed to rest, his body would undergo a intense healing process, he will feel weak, moody, fatigued, frustrated, it's understandable though, god, Seonghwa does not want to see inside his mind right now, all the feelings and emotions running through as his brain awakes once more.
Seonghwa could hear footseps walking downstairs, they were the heavy footsteps of Yunho, he looked- he looked flushed, did something happen?! why did he look like that.
"Yknow Seonghwa your full of mystery, you say you've never kissed, but yet, that was the most romantical kiss i've ever seen"
Seonghwa had a weird feeling brewing in his stomach now, that he had realized that Yunho was watching him, was this embarrassment that he was feeling?! the dull tightening feeling in his stomach.
"Y-you were watching me?-" Seonghwa muttered, he felt very odd.
Yunho chuckled, before nodding his head no and smiling, "Actually no i wasn't, were you worried?-"
Seonghwa could feel a hue bloom on his face, he didn't wanna accept that Yunho had him figured out in that moment.
"No, why did you come down here-? Seonghwa quickly switched the subject, to remove that tight feeling in his stomach, not wanting Yunho to find out his rather soft emotions- as he now officially spent too much time with humans, and it was affecting him, he wasn't as serious as he once was, and that bothered him then Seonghwa thought it would.
"I heard movement, i'm assuming Hongjoong is awake? or woke up partially- given his uh- sleeping state?" Yunho said as he looked over to sleeping Hongjoong, reverting his eyes completely to him on his bed.
Seonghwa cleared his throat, looking over his shoulder, then looking back at Yunho, accepting his human behaviors, making solid eye-contact with Yunho again.
"Hes fine, he will wake up in a bit, he's still weak from the poison, which reminds me, are we by the port? i dont feel comfortable with Hongjoong right now, in his current state, he needs to rest-"
Yunho nodded, he understood very well, Hongjoong needed rest, especially for their future plans that Seonghwa doesn't know about, but he did have good news, that they just ported.
"We just made port, i came down here to tell you actually, we are now in The Casablanca Harbour" Yunho said with a grin, and bright eyes.
This was going to be a new start for them, well, at least for Hongjoong and Yunho.
Stepping upon the deck, the wave of ocean air and the dry heat of Morocco hit, the sun was beaming down gently, the yell of a foreign language could be heard, Arabic.
Seonghwa could not remember the last time the port had grown this much, he had been to Morroco before, of course to Emerald Cove, for unfortunate reasons, but nonetheless, he had been there.
It had tripled in size, it turned into a well-fine tuned city, Casablanca was beautiful, as they slowly made it off the ship, Seonghwa carruing Hongjoong bridal style.
They received odd looks from people of course they weren't from there, they weren't blessed with the same dark features and thick accent, they weren't born with the culture, yet, it did make Seonghwa feel...almost upset, he hated being the center of attention, glares and whispers' about the foreign aliens in their country now, little did they know that Seonghwa could speak their language perfectly, having studied all the human languages, out of pure boredom, so he only snicked and made his way their crowd of people.
Not being here in so long, he grew worried, one of the many late night voyages where it was just Yunho and Seonghwa, they commonly stayed up together, as either the waves were being quite aggressive, or they missed home, comforting one another, Yunho mentioned that before he got captured by the British, he got captured by the Deathroses, and was held by their crew, where the captain eventually adopted him, realizing, he was nothing but a mere peasant boy back in the sweet motherland of Korea, Seonghwa has always seen the emotional scars that Yunho carried, just like Hongjoong, Yet both so different, so same.
Yunho never really talked about the Deathroses, but they must've been important if Yunho finds himself in the heart of the Deathroses and Emerald Cove, a place where Yunho was raised, a dangerous place, You see, Emerald Cove is a secret underworld community, located in the very heart of casablanca, when the sun sets, Emerald Cove alights, it's a place for sex, drugs, thiefs, piratelord's and anyone else in between. A dirty hushed secret.
Yunho was leading the way through the crowd, all looking at them, they weren't used to their kind here, they weren't normal, he could feel how different he was, at in the Bahamas everyone knew Hongjoong, so they weren't weird.
As Seonghwa requests, they find a Inn, to sleep in, it was getting late, the sun setting, which only meant trouble of course, the city changed at night, they lady at the inn was hesitant to let them in, however nothing Seonghwa's magic couldn't handle.
They couldn't get a super nice room, but it would fit for just the 3 of them, 2 beds, and one lousy nightstand in between with a dim old lantern in the middle, exhausted, Yunho found his bed, he said earlier he would find the deathroses, and meet with them, as he wasn't quite ready to bring Seonghwa and Hongjoong into their world.
Soon it was a deep night, Yunho's snores filled the quiet atomsphere that was Hongjoong sleeping on Seonghwa's chest, in fact, he got so used to sleeping with Hongjoong like this, that he forgot how to honestly sleep alone, how quiet it would be.
Seonghwa looked at the fire in the lantern, it slowly going out over a period of time, despite hating fire, he found it beautiful and charming.
However, his body ached a certain, revealing a ever small dull feeling, his soul missing, the deal was in the make, after the kiss worked, Chungha officially had his soul, and Hongjoong's.
He knew it wasn't quite fair to make such a deal, but he would take Hongjoong's wrath when he was alive rather then dead, trying to find his nonexistence peace in the river of souls.
A soul for a soul.
Seonghwa readjusted to the bed, his hand gently ruffling with Hongjoong's hair, as his light snores started, and teeth chattering, a sleeping habit, that Seonghwa found to cute, he only knew one way to take a anothers human soul, though it was quite a brave and daring act.
And it was to make love to them.
