You

It was beautiful.

Shimmering despite its dark colour.

The O Katana, Obsidian edition. The material, as so i heard, was upgraded on a cellular level. Meaning it can slice through the cells instead of tearing it like how a normal blade would.

In fact, it felt like i just fell in love with it.

"You like that one, huh?" I heard Jungkook asked me, coming nearer from behind me.

"More like in love..." I murmured, still having my eyes glued to it.

The O Katana was still in one of those glass displays.

"Can we open these?" I asked.

One of the Corporals came forward and assisted me, sliding his card across something near the glass display before the oval shaped glass slide backwards and hid underneath the display.

Finally enabling me to have a chance to actually touch it.
And i could've sworn, as my fingers touched the black blade...it was as if pleasurable electricity shot through my entire body. Little tiny bolts travelling through my veins, pumping more blood into all corners of my body, especially my face.

"Are you...okay?"
Shooting Jungkook a surprised look, i somehow had involuntarily forgotten his existence in the room after being enticed by the O Katana samurai sword.

"Y - yeah. Why wouldn't i be?" Gulping down my nervousness, i shield my face as i ran a hand towards my blushed face.
Awkwardly pushing away a strand of hair that was caught on my cheek.

"Your face is...so red." A smirk and a slightly crooked brow appeared on his young features as he added that last couple of words.
Slowly walking himself towards me, stopping just behind me in a feet away as he dug his palms into his pockets.

"It's the sword, Jungkook. I think I've just found my -" excitedly trying to express my joy, he proceeded to finish my sentences
"- true weapon. Yes, i guess you've found your soulmate, then."

"Guys...!"

Both of our heads turned simultaneously towards the same direction as Taehyung called out for us.

With his long fingers wrapped around the thick strap of his chosen weapon, he had it hung over one shoulder while he came towards us with his head slightly tilted to one side.

"Training's about to start." He reminded, casually flicking his head back. Causing that perfect hair of his to dance on his forehead before turning back around, leaving us.

The training hall wasn't that far off from the Chambers of Armour. It was in the same floor but a few turns into some hallways and you're already there.

Alongside some other paired up Aspirants, we watched on as the guards lead the large, tall double doors to slowly open before us.
Revealing what was waiting for us behind closed doors.

"What....?"

The hall, had us fooled. If not them, then it definitely had me completely confused;
At first, the whole training hall was nearly empty and white. Everything, basically. Almost anything that we'd thought is there, may disappear if you look into another direction.

Like the hall was rectangular shaped, expanding from the entrance to the back. Framed with what nearly seemed like thick translucent poles that had black, thin visible door-shaped dark colour lines in between them against the walls.
Like a secret passageway, or maybe making it seem that way.

"Welcome, Aspirants....!"

A man

A man. A moderately tall, pale, blonde man with a jet black semi leathery zip up suit suddenly came forward to welcome us all.
Followed by several others of them in similar fashion.

"The Corporals?" Bending down slightly, Jungkook whispered into one ear. Leaving lingering hot breaths before straightening himself up as he stood nearer to me.
Meeting his hand with my free one. Warming up my cold palm as Jungkook wrapped his fingers between my own, tightly.

What is he planning on?

I looked up at him as his eyes were fixed forward. Too focused on the strangers in front of us.
The strangers that, i guess, were responsible in both training and leading the whole pack.

"Pleasure to finally meet this season's contenders. Before we begin the training, I'd like to introduce myself

I'm Corporal Wonho. And these gentlemen behind me are my colleagues...." and so this Corporal went on and began mentioning the names of the rest of them one by one as they formally stood behind him.

Wonho

That's her.

"That's her, Corporal..." i heard one of my peers whispered from the back of my ear. Repeating what i had already said in my thoughts.

Nodding, i turned my head slightly to the side and replied
"I know. Oh...and, ah...i call dibs."

"What?? You can't call di-"

"I'm the leader here so i get to have first picks." I snapped, carving a mischievous side grin before turning my full attention back to the Aspirants that stood before us.

"So, let's not waste any more time. Come follow us, we'll lead each and everyone of you to your suitable training room."

You

"So, we're going to be separated?"

Okay, i know i have just met him. But somehow, ever since i met him, Jungkook has managed to restore that comfort feeling you get around those people you feel like you've known all your life.

"Apparently so. Why?"

He has made it clear that he would be there for me no matter what happens and will definitely stay by my side.

Shaking my head and silently signalling a 'Nothing' with my facial expression, i looked the other way before he worriedly asked me
"Are you going to be okay?"

Walking in between the poles and the rows of cleverly hidden training rooms, we both were about to head into our respective classes.
I probably took a while to answer him, Jungkook reached out his arm and made a gentle tug onto one of my sleeves. Unsatisfied with my silence.

Holding me back a little, he asked again,
"(Y/n)...do you need me?"

"What are you two doing? Move!" One of the Corporals that happened to be passing by saw us. Demanding our existence to only be seen in the training area rather than the halls.

"I'll be okay..." i whispered, carefully yet painfully parting myself away from my new found comfort zone.

The nearly invisible door slide opened in front of me, revealing another white room.

Seriously, what is it with all these whiteness??

As i stepped in, the door automatically slide close behind me. Sealing me inside this white void that i was beginning to find a little uncomfortable.

Too focus on the blindness of my new environment, i certainly wasn't expecting another human being to be in the same room as i was so soon.
I jumped as my ears heard a familiar voice.

"Hello there. You must be...(full Y/n)."

Note:

I need to apologize for updating real late. I've been coming down with a bad flu and I'm going thru some stuff and possible future changes in my life that's affecting the way i think now.

My head isn't clear at the moment and i can't think straight.

However, i tried to put all my efforts into my writing and i do hope you won't be bored with me.

I'm rly sorry. I adore you all and i want nothing but to pleased you 🙇💕
