Rituals

This chapter is the reason my search history is now nothing but Satanic rituals. Prepare for a dramatic chapter!!!

Jungkook's P.O.V

"We'll have to act quick", Xiumin's aunt stated, rummaging through her stuff. She broke the magic wall around her house a few hours ago so we could join her inside. She pulled unknown stuff out of cabinets and from her desk, ignoring our questioning gazes.

"If the Kiané attacked Jungkook that means he could feel threatened. And if he feels threatened that means our plan could actually work and he knows it too", she explained after finally getting everything together, "That means we better start the process now before he's able to regain his absolute strength".

"Are you ready Taehyung?"

Everyone looked at my boyfriend who gulped but nodded anyway.

"Good, because if you said otherwise we would have still gone through with the plan", she nodded which made his face pale a little. I slid my hand in his and squeezed it to, hopefully, assure him a little. He sent me a small smile though I know this situation is everything but smile-like.

"We'll have to do this somewhere quiet and big incase a fight would be necessary", she opened a map, tracing the streets with her index finger, "This field is under construction but they haven't actually started building anything. It's supposed to belong to some rich guy who wanted a vacation home. It's in the middle of a big field surrounded by woods. No one will question us there".

"I guess that's fine", she responded to herself, "And guessing is the best we can do".

She dragged us all to her pickup truck which could fit only four people inside. Xiumin, Hoseok and Yoongi sat inside while Taehyung, Jin, Jimin, Namjoon and I sat in the trunk.

"Do you think it'll work?", Namjoon asked, glancing nervously at us. Jin shuffled closer to him and rested his head on top of his shoulder, seemingly trying to forget the fact Taehyung was sitting close to him.

"It has to", I balled my fists, "That Kiané asshole has been messing with Taehyung's life for way too long. It has to be stopped".

The brunette next to me smiled warmly at me and I smiled back. Curling my tail around his arm I wedged myself between his legs, back leaning against his stomach. He closed his arms around my waist and kept me in place.

"I love you, you know. Doesn't matter what happens after today, I just want you to know that I love you", he mumbled, chin resting on top of my shoulder.

"I know", I closed my eyes and focused on the steady heartbeat in his chest, reminding me of the fact he was still very much alive and mine, "I love you too".

The calm atmosphere was quickly shattered when we arrived at the field, nothing but grass surrounded by huge trees in sight. We hopped out of the trunk and joined the others who were already making their way to the middle of the field.

"Okay so this is how we're going to do this", the aunt, apparently named Areum (Namjoon told me), turned to us. She pulled out a bunch of fancy looking stones and laid them on the ground.

"These are gemstones, sacred crystals that will protect us from the Kiané and help us in our work of exorcising it", she pointed at all of them individually, "Black Tourmaline, Agate, Bloodstone, Emerald, Black Onyx, Peridot and Orgonite. Each one of you will take a crystal and hold it up against your heart".

We hurriedly took one, except Taehyung and Jin (who coudn't be part of the ritual but decided to watch from the side lines), and got back into our half circle surrounding her.
