Jewel

Left Behind

Taehyung was on the search for Jimin.

He has tried sniffing him out throughout the entire camp, not wanting to ask anyone here of his where abouts. Not like Taehyung trusts anyone either way, he prefers searching on his own - well, sorta. Jeongguk was also on the search for him, but still no word or sight of the other man.

They knew Jimin likes his solo time whenever he's going through a hard time, but right now there's no time for that.

They must stick closer together, especially at a place as unfamiliar as this one.

They need him.

Just like he needs them.

"Who? Jimin? Who's Jimin?"

"The king you idiot!"

"Oh Jewel! No I haven't seen him, have you see him Soobin?"

"No, I haven't either."

Jeongguk and Taehyung looks between the two familiar and young teenagers, blankly, knowing that they won't get anywhere with those two. Who knows why they even thought it was a good idea to even go to them for guidance. Perhaps because they're the only ones here who seemed genuine enough and neutral around them, also because of their obsession over Jimin.

For such fanboys, they do such a horrible job in keeping tabs on him.

"What about Pandora?" Taehyung asked, remembering the name Jimin told him of his brother.

"Who?"

The two blinks at him, right before Hwanwoong leans towards Soobin, hushed, "Is he talking about Taemin?"

"I think it is Taemin - where is Taemin?"

"I don't know either. I thought he'd be on a mission?"

"A mission alright, probably with the girls in the weaponry unit."

Both teenagers laughed to each other like some damn hyenas while leaning towards each other, earning an eye roll from Jeongguk.

This is pointless.

What can they do now? Jimin is definitely not here in this camp.

Jeongguk glanced at Taehyung, who looked about ready to decapacitate both of them, but then his ears twitched as he heard something in a distance.

Without a word, he left the two teenagers and Jeongguk wordlessly followed him.

Hwanwoong frowns, "Hey! Where are you going?"

"Well, you didn't help for shit, how do you expect them to listen?"

"Hey, you didn't either!"

Soobin scowls back to him, "If Lunar was here, he would've decked that mouth for being so useless."

A heavy sigh escaped Hwanwoong's lips, a palm to his chin, a dim glimmer twinkling his eyes, "If only he stayed. We had a good time while it lasted."

"Correction, you had a good time."

"You can't deny you enjoyed his company, especially after teaching him all those languages before he left."

"Yeah, before I found out he was a new comer," Soobin scowls, "If I'd knew earlier, I -"

"You what? Would kill him? As if," Hwanwoong scoffs, staring at the fire, "Wonder where he is now..... I hope he found what he was looking for."

Soobin frowns to this, remembering the last memory of the smiling boy being of him walking through the trees of the forest after spending a month with them - well, hiding from the chief while the two teenagers kept him hidden in the forest and helped him adapt to Earth. He nearly tried to kill them at first, but as time went by, he accepted their help, and prepared him for the outside world. They didn't know he was a newcomer before his departure, to which Hwanwoong encouraged him to pursue his quest to find his leader, since his chief would kill him if he found him.
