A/N: Sorry for posting it so late, i just had a horrible week and i'm very tired and i can barely write :(

As Luna parked the car as close as she could to the arcade, Jimin's ears perked up in curiosity. His tail was tugged in his hoodie, similar to Taehyung's, who was sitting in the front seat.

Jimin felt a bit uncomfortable as the clothes were a bit too big for him and they also smelled like the other hybrid. Jimin missed his old clothes, ripped and not oferring too much protection against the cold, but at least they were his.

Luna unbluckled her safety belt and the two hybrids followed, soon getting out of the car. Taehyung already had a beanie on, covering his ears and he handed one to Jimin.

Hybrids were still a sensitive subject and were viewed poorly by most of the population and Taehyung prefered avoiding any confrontation, so he hid his ears and tail while in public. Jimin was also used to hiding them, but for another reason: to not get caught by autorities that would have taken him away.

The boys followed Luna quickly to the arcade, to avoid getting wet from the rain and as soon as they entered inside, Jimin's mouth opened in surprise at the sight in front of him.

The arcade was decorated with tons of shining signs, displaying names or logos that Jimin didn't recognize. Tons of machines, which Jimin assumed were the games, were spread all over the store. He let his eyes travel across the big room, scanning all the types of games, feeling a bit overwhelmed. He looked to his right, where Taehyung was dragging Luna to a small stand.

" How disrepectful, pulling his ownerclike that. He's lucky he's not getting punished." Jimin thought but immediately frowned at his thoughts. " That's the old you. Now you are free, you don't have to think like that anymore."

Luna pulled out of her bag the wallet and took out 10.000 Won, enough for 100 tokens. She knew that Tae loves playing these games and they would be there for a while so she thought that 100 would be enough.

She looked back to see Jimin just standing in the middle of the room, so she called his name and motioned for him to come next to her. Jimin slowly came and Luna extended her hand, giving him a small bucket that had half of the coins inside. Jimin tilted his head in confusion and Luna giggled because he looked really cute like that.

" These are fake coins, that you can use to play a game. Do you want Taehyung to show you?" Luna asked, to which Jimin quickly nodded, since he didn't even know what game to pick.

They searched for the already gone hybrid, but Luna already had an idea where she will find him: his favorite game. Luna made her way between the machines until she found a colored floor, where an excited Taehyung was trying to follow the movs of the video character and be in sync with the music.

Taehyung was currently trying to dance to a girl group that neither Luna or Jimin recognized, but he looked quite hilarious as he tried to imitate girly moves.

" This one is his favorite. It's a dancing game, you can pick another one. Do you know what games you like?"

" I don't, i don't know what i like. My previous ow- i never had the chance to play games before.." Jimin answered, almost revealing a bit of his past to Luna.

Luna noticed his slip and figured out that he wanted to say owner, but pretended like she didn't hear anything, not wanting to force the hybrid to talk about his past. These were difficult and sensitive subjects for stray or abandoned hybrids, their previous lives.

Luna met some hybrids that had good and caring owners, that treated them like a member of the family. Most of them were old couples, that eventually passed away and so the hybrids found themselves in the hands of the children of their deceased owners or on the streets.
