Blooming Period {TAEPYO}

JACKPOT

"Ooohhhh it's the big daaayyyy" Minhyuk said, appearing out of no where. "Come on come on come onnnnnn."

I groaned. "I'm getting ready. GET OUT"

"Whoa. You look good." He said, jumping on my bed. He jumped and jumped, floating in the air for four or five seconds before coming back down.

"Yeah well..." I blushed as I put my piercings in. "I try to look good for the big...ah, 'taking', since Jiho wouldn't let us call it 'stealing'."

Minhyuk flew across my room and hovered next to me, putting lipstick on me. "Yeah. And I think you look extra good with your lips red."

"Thanks.." I smiled and looked myself over. I put on a black cap and grinned. I waked out the door and Jihoon smiled at me.

"Hey." He called. "Ready?"

I nodded. "As I'll ever be."

Third Person POV

"Princess." The queen said firmly. "What are you doing? The placing is in three minutes. The people are waiting for you to place that sapphire around your neck."

"yes mother." The princess said, pulling herself up the stairs. "I'm ready."

"Now, let's meet the Princess herself!!" Called Lorrane, the newswoman. "Ladies and Gentlemen, The Princess!!"

The Princess closed her eyes and walked up the stairs, to everyone cheering.

"Now, let's see her put the jewel on herself, eh? C'mon folks! Cheer! Put it on! Put it on!"

The royal herself took a deep breath, and slowly, with her long lean fingers, put the beautiful gem on. Everyone in the castle cheered and cheered.

"To my wonderful people," The princess started. "It's my honor to-"

Just then with an enormous SCRREEEEECCCCHH, a huge black car drove through the castle wall and the brick wall crumbled and collapsed. Everyone screamed and started running around.

Seven men dressed in hot colors jumped out of the car and ran out. Security ran out and started to fight, but it was harder than they thought.

Taeil's POV

We jumped off. I scurried off instantly, trying to find the princess like our plan. Jiho was laughing like a madman now, with Jihoon at his side, shooting guns at the celing.

"JACKPOT!!!!" Ukwon shrieked, laughing as he tore some heads off of men.

I laughed and then saw what I was looking for. I approached.

"Hi."

The princess whipped around, her big blue eyes wide and full of terror. She opened her mouth but no noises came out.

"Shhh, no I'm not gonna hurt you." I said backing her up.

"I......I.......!"

"Sorry sweetheart."

The princess whipped around and Jaehyo smiled at her, winking. He put the priceless jewel up and grinned.

"This belongs to us."

Minhyuk laughed hysterically from somewhere and shouted, "Hey guys!!! We got it!"

Jihoon shrieked with laughter and waved. "C'mon! Back to the car!!"

"NO!!" The queen shrieked. She started to run down the stairs but then there was a huge 'CRACK' and there was a huge scream.

"MOTHER!!!" The princess shrieked. "Someone HELPP!! MY MOTHER!! SHE'S STUCK!! SHE'S GOING TO DIE UNDER A HUGE PILE OF OUR OWN HOME!!!"

"Taeil!" Kyung screamed. "Go and help her!"

Everyone stared at me but I didn't move.

I couldn't.

I was staring at Jiho.

He was taking over some guy who was screaming his head off, with tears in his eyes and his lips bleeding.

He looked so painful.

Jiho turned and saw me staring. GO, he mouthed.

I should've went.

I should've run over and rescued the queen.

But I hesitated.

I knew it was wrong.....

but...

I didn't trust him.

Just then, Jihoon shot out and grabbed me. "COME ON!!" He screamed.

"But the queen..!" Jaehyo exclaimed.

"Ukwon! Go lift the wall off her! Minhyuk!! Stay with him and flash in when you're done! The others, come ON!!!"

I was loaded into the car.

Everyone got in and Jaehyo took the wheel. We took off, starting into the sunset.

Jihoon looked at me.

"...What happened?"
