You better grab a hold and hold on for your life.
Because you don't get lucky twice.

"Administration password: BUTTERFLY. Subject power on."

Jungkook's eyes opened slightly, the lens of the spectral cameras having to get used to taking in the sudden amount of light. There was silence around him as all of his senses slowly came back to life.

After things had slowly come back into view, he sat up and looked around the room. He couldn't see anybody around and was confused. Miyun had powered him off. She had gotten angry because of what he said, although he couldn't see anything wrong with it.

All he had done was asked a simple question. He wanted to know what the reason behind his creation was. And he had upset her again. So much so that she felt the need to power him off.

His attention was brought over to the computer screen which was left exactly how he remembered it. She hadn't touched it at all.

He couldn't blame her though. What he was doing was different than the original programming so he expected that she would have trouble with it.

Her disappearance was what worried him. He couldn't see her anywhere around. It's not like she would have just left him after turning him on. She was the only one who was able to do it so there was no possibility that someone else had done it.

The sounds of voices drew his attention over to one of the hallways. He stared, waiting for whoever was talking to appear. Jungkook didn't bother moving from his sitting position on the table.

Two people appeared in his field of vision, one he instantly recognized as Miyun. The other seemed to be dressed in a blue jacket and had vibrant orange hair. His eyes crinkled into a smile as he continued to speak with the girl and they laughed over something.

Miyun's attention was brought over the machine sitting on the table, and looked him in the eyes. The boy beside her looked as well and Jungkook could hear the sudden intake of breath.

"Miyun, this is amazing." He breathed out quietly. The boy didn't hesitate to run over and start grabbing at Jungkook. He pulled out his arm and started to admire it. He got up real close to the camera's Jungkook called eyes and Jungkook retracted on instinct.

His own eyes moved over to Miyun who had a slight blush on her cheek. Jungkook wasn't quite sure why she was flustered but he could only take a guess.

He wasn't quite sure what started the pounding in his chest, or why his programming was suddenly telling him to push the orange haired boy away. His facial features shifted to one of distaste as he stared down.

Jungkook shrugged the hands of the stranger off and glared at him. The boy looked at Jungkook, surprised by the sudden hostility.

"Jungkook, this is Jimin. He was one of the real Jungkook's best friends." Miyun explained.

"You really did a magnificent job on this Miyun. I would have never expected him to come out looking so life-like. No wonder they call you a genius." Jimin's hands were back on Jungkook and he quickly pushed the boy away.

Both Miyun and Jimin looked slightly dismayed at his reaction.

"Weren't you ever told to not touch things that aren't yours?" Jungkook asked rhetorically. Jimin instantly looked deflated and Miyun's face turned a shade of red that Jungkook had never seen before.

"What is wrong with you, Jungkook?" Miyun asked angrily. Jungkook was caught of guard by the sudden anger in her voice. His features changed to those of shock and he seemed confused as to why she would be so angry about this.
