Kingdom Come

Chapter Thirteen

(Not Edited)

"Seul," Jimin started, shifting the objects he carried around in his arms, "how much longer are we going to do this?"

"Hm, I'm not sure. A few more hours maybe? I don't know."

Jimin let out what seemed like a huff as he shifted again, "I thought we were supposed to be on a date," he mumbled, looking off into the distance.

Seulgi chuckled and faced him, bringing her hand up to cup his cheek, "you're cute." She watched as red started to collect on his cheeks with slight adoration in her eyes.

"S-shouldn't we be looking for Lisa and Rosé?" Seulgi rolled her eyes. Jimin changes his mind way too fast.

"Right, well I have a lead but-" Seulgi stopped talking all of a sudden as she eyed the figure coming towards them, "Jaehyun? What are you doing here?"

"I-I want to help."

"Shouldn't you still be in bed right now?" She asked, crossing her arms over her chest, "also, how did you find us?"

"Well, I feel better and honestly my wounds healed alarmingly fast, so here I am. I kinda also asked Jisoo where you were." Seulgi looked at him incredulously, so he continued, "please? I need this for my conscience."

The goddess looked at Jimin to see if he was ok with it -- it was their 'date' afterall -- but he just shrugged (it was ruined anyway) and turned his attention back to the man in front of him, "Ok, detective Jung; you're in. Just, make sure you won't be extra baggage for us, ok?"

Jaehyun smiled, "yes, miss."

"Ok let's go~"

"Lisa are you sure you're ok?"

"A little bit uncomfortable, but I'm fine." Rosé smiled sadly at her. Despite what the man who kidnapped them believed, Lisa was still very much human and humans had their needs. She had to eat, drink water and use the bathroom. Gods and goddesses usually don't need to do any of those things normally to survive, so it didn't surprise Rosé when the guy refused to give them anything to eat or drink.

If it wasn't for Hana, Lisa may be dead due to thirst by now. The little girl had been the one to give her water and small treats that were just enough for Lisa to survive another day with no complaints (a feat that amazed Rosé).

The only problem was when Lisa had to use the bathroom. Ultimately, she'd soil herself and try her best to be comfortable in her situation. Rosé was fine with it, but she was't so sure about the man that kept visiting them. She was sure he'd become alarmed by the smell, so in their best interest she used the bit of magic she could muster to help Lisa with her predicament.

Rosé learned very quickly that the man was using some sort of something to keep her from using her powers. She could only use a little bit of magic and that little bit exhausted her to no end, but she needed to keep Lisa safe. She needed to make sure she made it out of this place alive.

"You know you can stop helping me, I really don't mind-"

"Lisa, please, let me help you-"

"You're exhausted, Rosé," Lisa interrupted, voicing her concern for the goddess, "you may be immortal, but you can still get hurt."

The goddess smiled, grateful for the brunette's concern, "it's ok, Lisa. I just need to rest and I'm back at a 100%. You really don't have to worry about me over working myself. If anything, I'm honestly worried about you. You haven't eaten a proper meal in four days."
