~ Yoona Point of View ~

I woke up groggily.

Where am I?

I looked around the unfamiliar room - it was a decent size, quite bare but had the necessities like a wardrobe and chest of drawers, and an ensuite bathroom. I sat up, remembering the events that occurred - I would have believed it was a dream if I hadn't woken up in this unfamiliar place. Just as I slowly swung my legs over the side of the bed, the door opened.

"Hey," Taehyung greeted me warmly. My eyes widened, I mean it was still a shock to see BTS, the famous and talented young men, standing in front of me. It was even more surreal knowing that they weren't who we all thought they were.
He chuckled as he sat on the edge of the bed.
"How are you feeling?"

I nodded slightly and smiled, saying, "I'm okay."

He nodded and motioned for me to come downstairs with him. I obliged and followed him. It was a cosy house, quite big but comfy and homely. I followed V into the kitchen, where I met Jin who was cooking, with some help from J-Hope. They turned to me and smiled.

"I'm Hoseok," he smiled, grinning at me.

"She knows hyung, she's already a big fan," V grinned, and J-Hope's smile grew even wider.
"Really? Even better!"

I laughed and took a closer look at them. J-Hope's aura was a pale yellow, V's was lilac and Jin's was a beige/light brown. They were so faint that you wouldn't notice it unless you specifically knew the boys had them.

"Taehyung?"

"Yeah?" He turned to me, pausing from eating the chips he'd acquired from the cupboard. He offered me some which I gladly accepted.

"Erm... What colour is my aura?" I asked tentatively. If I'm one of them, surely I'd have one too, right?

V smiled. "Pale Grey."

I nodded. I liked the colour grey a lot, so it was fitting. Suddenly I remembered what I saw in the reflection.
"And... Why did I have wings?"

The three boys shared a knowing look, and smiled. "Let's go to the lounge and we can talk about it."

"Why isn't it working?!" I struggled.

"It's okay, it takes time, they don't just appear straight away. You've only just joined us, so it will take some practise," Rapmon explained, and I nodded, still frustrated.

"Just calm down, and will yourself to make them appear," Jimin smiled.

Jungkook hadn't said a word since I'd entered the room, and was sat in the corner watching me silently. His gaze made my heart flutter, and I looked away blushing. I closed my eyes, focusing on nothing but making my wings appear...

I heard satisfied murmurs as I felt a familiar pain in my back. I gasped again and arched my back, peering in the large mirror that hung on the wall.
"They're... Beautiful!" I slowly rotated so I could observe every angle of them. The wings were covered with pale grey feathers, the tips of them glinting silver. The boys around me looked pleased.

"Good job!" Jin smiled, and I laughed.

"So... Please explain what exactly is going on, I still don't fully understand."

They all looked at one another, before Jimin spoke. "Sit down first, and we'll tell you."

"Woah..." I sat astounded by what I'd heard. We were... Not Angels, but I guess that would be the closest thing humans could compare us to. There were categories of powers, for example Rapmon was a natural leader and therefore had extra strength. Taehyung could change his voice and imitate any sound, and Jimin could change his appearance.

I wonder what Jungkook's power is...

I looked to where he was sitting and frowned. He was no longer there, and I didn't remember him walking out either. I tried to ignore it and turned my gaze back to the others. Jungkook, as I'd been told, used to be one of us and still is partly, but in an incident which none of them would explain he was poisoned and became what he is now, part of what we are, and part... Demon, I guess you could call it, for lack of a better word. These terms in the human world were cheesy and casually used, but here it was not. It felt weird to refer to where I used to live as "the human world" but I had to get used to the fact that... I'm not human.

"So, basically, we live in an... Alternate world, you could say? It is the same earth, same place. But humans cannot see you when you go out, unless you will them to. We live in the same place but they have no idea of our existence. BTS, we are one of the groups that train up newbies," Rapmon explained as I listened intently.
"We are given the file of the next person who's time is coming, then we go to them when they are ready at the age of 18 and give them their choice. Unsurprisingly, a lot of people turn it down, so we don't get many trainees."

I nodded, this wasn't surprising seeing as they scared me half to death at our first meeting, even though they were my favourite Kpop group. People who didn't know them at all would have had a heart attack at strangers telling them this, maybe would have called the mental asylum.

"Okay... I need to see my family though-" I stopped when J-Hope shook his head at me. "You can't... They can't see you remember? You've only just become one of us, you don't have the ability to let them see you just yet. And once you join us, you're not supposed to go back to family..."
I gasped, and felt tears fall down my cheeks. No family? But... My parents, my brother...

"I'm sorry, Yoona," Jimin handed me a tissue to wipe my face with.

"It's okay," I mumbled.

"If it makes you feel better, they won't know you're gone - once you accept us, your family automatically loses memory of you." Taehyung explained.

That made me cry harder...

"Stupid!" Rapmon slapped his arm. V looked apologetic, and I just shook my head indicating that it's fine, even though it's not. I suppressed any more tears.

"You have us now... Don't worry," Jimin smiled, and I couldn't help but smile back at his gorgeous grin.

"Come on, let's have dinner now," Jin stood up, and everyone followed suit. My emotions were still confused, but for now I decided to forget everything else and just enjoy my food.
