Missing Princess // A YOONGI FANFIC

Chapter 3

KINGDOM OF BAEKJE

(JIN'S P.O.V)

"Father, has there been any news from Iseul yet?" asked my son, Hoseok.

I shook my head and answered, "No, she didn't come back last night. The guards will go look if she is anywhere in the kingdom today."

He didn't say anything and simply sighed. I understood that he is worried. We all were.

"Let's just hope that where ever she is right now, she is safe." Both Hoseok and Jungkook nodded.

"Also, we will have a guest from Silla coming in a few days. He is one of the minsters' son from Silla, who is also related to one of our ministers. Treat him well, he is one year older than you, Hoseok."

"Will do, Father," said both of them.

There was a knock at the door. The person entered to reveal my adviser, Namjoon, and the chief guard, Jooheon. "Your Majesty, the guards will be moving out now to go search for Princess Iseul."

I gave him my thanks and dismissed him.

KINGDOM OF SILLA

(ISEUL'S P.OV)

I woke up for a second time but this time, it was the next day. It seemed like it was still early. I heard birds chirping as I slowly got up and made my way to the door and looked outside. There was no one. I wonder where I am... more importantly who I am.

I heard footsteps coming. I looked to my left and saw a little boy who somewhat resembles the guy I met yesterday. What did they call him again? I can't remember at all. The little boy waved at me and smiled.

He stood in front of me and said, "Nice to meet you, I'm Jihoon. I'm the King's little brother, making me the prince."

The other guy was the king, that's right. His name was Yoongi, I think.

"Hello, Jihoon. I am... Well, I don't know who I am."

He chuckled and stated, "It's okay. Do you maybe want a tour of the palace?" He looked at me with eyes full of hope. How could I say no to that?

"Sure, why not?" I told him. He grinned and grabbed my hand, telling me to follow him.

"Okay, well this is my room... That one over there is the King's, and next, we are going to the kitchen."

When we got to the kitchen, they were busy making breakfast. I wasn't sure, though.

"Smells nice, right? When the food is ready, they will come call us to eat. Don't worry, you won't be starving around here." Jihoon said. I smiled and nodded. "Also, if my brother is cold to you, don't take it to heart. He isn't really mean. He is actually a fool." ...But he wasn't acting cold to me yesterday.

"Okay, I'll remember that. Where are we going next?" I asked him.

"The place that I love the most in the palace, the garden," he answered. I nodded and followed him.

When we got there, I was in awe. It was beautiful - it had a river flowing through it and there was roses and many other flowers. "I know it's really pretty right?" Jihoon asked.

I nodded and replied, "It really is."

We sat on the grass and began talking. He told me about the palace and the life here. As well as his friend named Soonyoung and his brother's friend, Kihyun. Apparently, Kihyun will be going to the palace in Baekje to visit family there.

"Jihoon-ah, where are you?" I heard a familiar voice call out.

"We are over here,"Jihoon said back. I looked up and saw the guy from yesterday, the King.

I stood up and bowed to him. "Hello, your Majesty."

"Hello," he said coldly. Ah, so this is what Jihoon meant. "Breakfast is ready let's go eat."

Jihoon smiled and grabbed my arm. "Come on, let's go eat."

I looked at him with uncertainty and said, "No thank you, I'm okay. I think I will go to my room now. But thank you anyway, Jihoon."

I got my arm out of his hold and bowed to both of them then walked away. I had many reasons why I don't want to go.One: I already felt like a burden. Two: I was not really hungry. Three: I was somewhat scared of his Majesty.

When I got to my room, I sat down on the bed. I kept trying to remember of something about who I was. I closed my eyes and concentrated hard but got nothing. I kept on trying but I was getting frustrated so I laid down and slowly fell asleep.

DREAM

"Iseul... Iseul-noona, come play with us. Come on, hurry up," I heard a little boy say. I made my way towards him and saw him with someone else and a girl who looked exactly like me came running over to them.

"Jungkook-ah. Crown Prince, what are you doing?" asked the girl.

"Iseul, our little brother wants us to play hide and seek with him, shall we?" The girl nodded excited.

The Crown Prince was going to search for them. The boy named Jungkook ran away and went to hide. The girl who looked like me went to hide as well. The Crown Prince started counting. I was following the girl as she climbed into a tree close by and hid there.

Soon enough the crown prince found his little brother and was looking for the girl.

"Iseul-ah, where are you? Come on, don't go hiding too well again. We aren't ninjas like you who can climb up stuff..." The girl as the Crown Prince was standing underneath the tree.

He was bending down as she said, "Well maybe you should look up, dear brother."

The poor guy screamed in surprise and the girl laughed so much that she lost her balance, falling out of the tree and managing to knock herself out.

The Crown Prince kept telling her to wake up. When she did, he asked, "Do you know who you are?"

The girl nodded and answered, "I'm Iseul, you idiot. I only hit my head. It's not like I died, alright? So let me go." She pushed the guy off of her and got up.

REALITY

I felt someone shaking me. "Miss... Miss, wake up. Don't mind my brother. As I said, he isn't really cold, it's only an act. I brought you some food."

He kept shaking me then I suddenly woke up and shouted, "ISEUL!", scaring the poor boy.

I looked at him and said, "I am so sorry... It's just I had this dream and now I'm even more confused than before."

I gave up. I was confused before about who I was, but this just takes the cake. Could it be? Am I really Iseul?
