Yoongi wrings his clammy hands; nervous for his escape mission.

Jimin called it lights out a couple hours ago. The tension spread throughout the house and seeped into each other's bones which made Jimin fidget from nervousness. It wasn't until Yoongi failed to cover up a yawn when Jimin sprung up and showed Yoongi where he would be staying. Once Yoongi heard the witch's light snores from the other room, he quietly tiptoed down the stairs. He made sure to steer away from Grim, trying not to wake the cat up. Yoongi eventually made it to the wooden door but he didn't open it.

He realizes walking in the middle of the dark forest could be the worst idea ever but its also better than being trapped in this house. For a split second, Yoongi thought maybe Jimin isn't like the witches he's met before but the plaguing memories of the cackles and screams pull him away from that thought. He doesn't want to risk it.

Yoongi lets out a loud exhale as he flings the door open and runs.

The branches of the trees shadow over Yoongi casting him in darkness. The treetops hugging so close he can barely make out the blinking stars smeared across the sky. The full moon whispering words of comfort to Yoongi while he runs along a rocky path. The chattering of the forest spirits is whisked away as Yoongi comes barreling through.

Sweat mattes down his dark hair and runs down the side of his temples. His shoulders start to ache and he wonders how long he's been running. Yoongi releases a shuddering breath as he races towards a rippling pond. He throws himself on the ground and cups his hands in the water. He hastily brings his hands to his mouth and gulps it down.

The refreshing water travels down his throat leaving him shivering from the euphoric feeling. His eyes skim the surface of the water noticing something a bit different about it. The water is almost glowing as if it has a complete aura surrounding it. He slowly looks up to a pair of blazingly seductive eyes sitting above the desirous water that's humming words of comfort.

All Yoongi wants to do is stride into the water and never come up again. The quiet purr of promise softly caress the sides of his face and makes him dizzy with longing. Longing to go back to his family, to his friends, to his home.

Before the water could pull him under, a low growl from behind jumps him out of his spell.

Yoongi is panic-stricken. His whole body goes stiff as a board and he swears he can feel his heart jumping out of his chest. Yoongi completely forgets the enchanting creature gazing up at him from under the pool of water.

Carefully, Yoongi turns around and searches where the growl came from.

His eyes lock onto the still darkness of the forest, the only thing he can hear is the short breaths that escape his chapped lips. The hairs on his arm standing straight up as little goosebumps pebble up and down his arm.

A sudden flash of pale yellow eyes bore into him causing him to choke on his own tongue. The flickering gaze moves slowly out of the darkness and into the light of the quiet moon.

A wolf glares at him as it slowly circles around Yoongi. It's muddy gray fur shudders as its lips pull back into a low growl, baring its rows of jagged teeth. Its paws drag across the dirt floor as its eyes never leave his.

Yoongi feels his blood completely still as he watches every single move the wolf takes. His mouth dries up and his hands begin to shake as the beast that has him cornered tests out a snap at the air next to him.

A splash behind Yoongi drives the withering stare of the advancing wolf away from him. The wolf's eyes form into something much softer, as if its eyes are melting into pools of honey.

"Hyung, don't be so aggressive. He's only human; completely harmless."

Yoongi's head whips around and faces the seductive eyes he saw above the water from before except they weren't so alluring anymore. They were round golden eyes watching the wolf with adoration. A boy that looks younger than him is decorated with pearls of water and shells of iridescence scattered over his wavy hair.

A siren.

Loud cracking startled Yoongi out of his trance and focused back on the wolf before him. But the wolf was no longer there instead stood a man with honey-colored skin and a wide boxy smile. His eyes though look familiar, they're the same pools of honey he was glowering down at a couple seconds ago.

Shapeshifter.

"I wasn't being aggressive Kookie, I was only messing around. You, on the other hand, were on a mission to drown the poor guy."

Yoongi has heard many stories about mythical creatures roaming about the deep forests but he never truly believed them. Seeing a siren and a shapeshifter smirking at each other, completely forgetting Yoongi was right in between them was making his brain go haywire.

The two enchanting creatures suddenly snapped their attention back to Yoongi. He must look comical from the shock practically written all over his face because "Kookie" is failing to stifle his giggles behind his hands that are laced together with webs. Tae snaps his fingers together and points at Yoongi's chest, face full of recognition,

"your Jimin's man, right?"
