The stories began with a twisted fate, which ended in intertwining the seven strings together.
Hoseok was born from the DNA of a murderer who ends up turning into the innocent man he became. Unfortunately, fate had decided to end his life, although the sins on his shoulders were heavier than combined rocks and pebbles together. Hoseok, someone who could grow up into a refined person took the other path.
He felt no connection with the new family, which resulted in him to run away. He felt the emptiness within them. He had assumed the worst from his new family. It felt as if they didn't care for him at all.
No matter how kind and polite they were towards Hoseok, he was only just a lost little boy whose Mother abandoned him in an amusement park. He recalled how excruciating the burning agony consumed his body. He was only five at that time who only wanted to be with his Mother. He barely fitted in the new family's standard living.
They gave him everything a child would ever want, but he wasn't truly happy. He was thankful at one point for the shelter, yet ended up tearing the trust apart. Hoseok didn't belong there. He didn't feel happy at all. He was devastated at his Mother for abandoning him. He could not forget about her.
Hoseok wondered if he could choose another path only by counting to five back then.
Would it make any difference? Would his Mother not abandon him at all even after he ran up to her? Would she truly take him back with no second thoughts?
No.
He already knew by then, by understanding that she couldn't raise him properly. Her own family had disowned her and trying to raise a child placed a toll on her back. Hoseok had no clue as to why he was abandoned at five years old. He did not understand her motives in leaving him behind.
Numerous thoughts rumbled over his mind.
Why was he even born in the first place?
He couldn't stop thinking about the significance of his existence. He might as well just jump off the apex of a building by now, but he chose to live his own life. A life that wasn't deemed worthy of innocence from the way he lived by now. Kidnapping random victims, poisoning and experimenting on them, slicing their body parts into pieces which ends up in butcher shops.
It was one way that Hoseok could brush his boredom away. That was only one part. He could be worse than this. Hoseok was truculent. He was someone unlike Jin, who held hubris as part of his personality.
In terms of the skilled duo, they weren't as terrible as Hoseok when it came to planning strategies. They would oblige in any forms and tasks settled from Jin and Hoseok. Whatever came to them, they succeeded in attaining the missions without failing. They had failed one mission on purpose, which was to leave Hoseok behind.
They had purposely left him to be detained, which happened to be the leader's initial aspect.
Both Jimin and Jungkook lived a happy life. They were normal high school boys who earned average grades, which sometimes resulted in chaotic circumstances. The expectations of getting excellence in their studies was not enough. They had to be more than the others. It was suffocating for the two, but that day was also a blessing for their depression.
It was only then from that day that their memories were twisted into a new life, one that they hadn't expected to cross their minds.
To serve under someone like Hoseok was presumably the last option as the non-stop studying consumed their underdeveloped mind. Jimin got bored of the textbooks and rather had perfected his swift movements by intense trainings. He loved to discover new things and assassinating certain targets appealed to him the most.
