Jhope pov.

We re-enter the toasty outdoors and start heading towards the end of the market place.

A smell of burning stings my nostrils as we pass a bakery.

Jimin and Namjoon stand either side of me as we speed-walk towards a few sheltered shops.

"Hey Stop!"

Jimin freezes. I grab him and we speed up, following Namjoon. "What - was - that?" I ask Namjoon inbetween breaths. He ignores me.

We halt.

What the hell?

I cant move!

"We're frozen!" I tried to scream, yet no sound was expelled.

Everything turns crimson red and my skin starts to sweat.

The creatures, the buildings; they all dissappear.

We are then greeted by a dark elf. His skin radiant blue, his eyes blood-red and mesmerising.

"You ignored me." The elf states, looking Namjoon up and down. "I need to talk to you three!" His voice goes higher and faster.

He smiles at me. His eyes looking more manic by the second. I just stare; I cant avert my eyes. His dark mouth forms into a smile, bright marmalade teeth appear.

"Elf," Namjoon gains its attention,
"Yes, slave?" Namjoon sighs with the elves words.
"What do you want?" Namjoon steps up,
"I have been sent to deliver a message." The elf spits, laughing and coughing uncontrollably.

Whats so funny?

"I have been told to tell you to go to the cellar just out of town, past the swamp. There is something there for you to collect,"
"What do we need to get?" Namjoon asks.
"Its a letter, once you are there you will know what it is."

I look towards Namjoon and Jimin. Before I can say anything, the psychotic-seeming elf disappears.

Everyting goes black.

The elven cackle screams, making my right ear pop.

The red surroundings re-appear. The elf has gone. Good riddance!

Jimin and I breath heavily. Namjoon tells us to get up, which we do almost instantaneously. "What should we do Namjoon?" Jimin asks.
"I cannot help you, you have to decide what to do yourselves,"

"Jhope."
"Yes?"
"I don't trust the elf, its a trap!" Jimin's eyes meet mine, basically begging me to agree.

I dont.

"I dont trust anything in this realm. But, I really think he was telling the truth." I explain.
"Bu-"
"But he was insane? That is a given-"
Jimin cut me off, "actually, maybe this Yoongi guy made it look unbelievable to fool us."

I agree and Namjoon smiles at us.

I have a good feeling about this.
