Diana gasped sharply and sat up straight, looking around wildly. Her eyes darted around the pure black room as she stood up on shaky legs.

"Hello? Is anyone here?" Diana called out cautiously. As soon as she finished speaking, the left side wall turned on and showed the face of a man she never met before. She stared curiously at him and looked closer. The vision seemed to be in the eyes of someone but she couldn't tell who exactly.

"All right Seungwoo, I need to teach you how to do the curse," the man spoke. His eyes seemed tired and worn. His smile didn't reach his eyes, a telltale sign of him being a Natu.

"Of course Natu Brian," Seungwoo replies, his voice bringing a soft smile to Diana's face. I haven't heard his voice in ages, she thought nostalgically.

"This curse has to be redone every hundred years. The last time the curse was done was in 1917. Which means the next one is in 2017, a time where you will be Natu. My time is running short, past Natu's have been hinting at it so I might as well tell you all I can."

"Are you sure?"

"About?"

"How much time you have."

"One can never be certain, but it's better to be safe than sorry,"  Brian chuckled lowly and looked to the side. "The curse can be found in this book, Antiquae Libri Maledictiones Istæ and you have to follow the curse perfectly or else it won't work."

"And what is this curse for?"

"It's a curse with Dark Magic that forces mid and high level demons to stay in the Underworld. It also makes sure that any Volatus who have crossed into the dark side stay in the underworld. If the spell weakens or isn't redone, a war can take place. A war so big, it could bring a destruction to the world as we know it." Seongwoo nodded solemnly and stared at the book placed on his lap. "Shall we get started Seongwoo?"

"Yes Natu Brian." The vision faded out, leaving Diana back in the black room. The room seemed to spin and she cried out, hands coming up to hold on to anything. The room stopped suddenly and Diana collapsed. The last thing she saw was a man with curly, honey blond hair and red eyes.

"Diana?!" Diana gasped harshly and sat up straight before groaning and curling into a ball.

"Oh my god, are you okay?!" Candy cried out, her hands moving to pet Diana's hair softly. 

"Candy— I'm sorry!" Diana blurted out. Candy looked back in surprise and smiled softly.

"I forgave you ages ago idiot," Diana smiled at that and pulled Candy into a tight hug, feeling comfort and safe in Candy's arms. "How are you feeling?"

"I know what's happening."

"What do you mean?"

"There's a curse on the Underworld that keeps dangerous creatures in it and since I had no idea about it, it became weaker. That's how a high level demon attacked us, and how there seems to be more demons!" Diana said, half hysterically.

"Diana calm down! You almost died and you're worried about a curse?!" Candy asked, a concerned look in her eyes.

"Candy–I think a war might happen."

"Diana, get some rest. I'll see you later." Candy quickly muttered a spell, causing Diana to slump over and fall in a deep slumber. Candy stood up and moved out of  the room. She glanced back before shutting the door softly.

Candy spun around and ran to the training room where everyone was waiting and opened the door timidly.

"Diana's awake, but she seemed a bit panicked so I put her to sleep for a bit more," she told the group. They all nodded and seemed to relax a bit.

"What are we going to do now?" Arianna asked. Candy glanced back at the closed door and looked back at the group.

"Since Diana is recovering I guess I'm in charge until she gets better. The guys will stay in the guest rooms and will help us out with caring for the young ones I guess. The rest of us will continue training and wait until Diana feels better, understood?" Candy said, glancing at the group and smiled softly when she was met with nods.

"I'll take the boys to their rooms I guess," Marisol said softly, tugging on Youngjae's sweater to lead him, and everyone else, to the rooms. Candy saw as they all dispersed, but her eyes landed on the broad shouldered man who didn't seem to move.

"Jinnie?" Quickly, Seokjin stood up and pulled Candy into a tight hug. Candy tensed slightly, but eventually wrapped her arms around him, taking in his scent that reminded him of autumn and coffee.

"Baby, please don't scare me like that again, I thought I lost you..." Seokjin told her in a broken voice.

"Jinnie, you won't get rid of me so easily," she told him in a teasing voice. Jin smiled slightly through his tears and pulled back slightly.

"Can I kiss you?" he asked, his eyes landing on her plump bottom lip and her beauty marks that seemed to almost tease him.

"Go ahead," Candy whispered, already closing her eyes and placing a hand on his neck to softly guide him towards her. Seokjin closed his eyes and smiled slightly at the kiss. Because of his tears, it was wet, tasting salty and he could feel her lips molding with his almost perfectly.

The kiss reminded Seokjin of Yin and Yang. Her small stature curved into him, making it feel like they were one and not two. He felt Candy sigh into the kiss and he tilted his head, deepening it a bit. Her bottom lip got caught between his teeth and he gave a small tug, testing his limits. Candy giggled shyly and pulled away, leaving Jin to whine and lean down for another kiss.

"Don't be needy Jinnie, I'm not leaving anytime soon," she told him with a small smile and her eyes downcast.

"I'm glad you aren't leaving, but I'd still like another kiss," he told her, teasing. Candy laughed loudly at that and placed a hand on the nape of his neck.

"One more kiss won't hurt," she whispered against his lips. Seokjin smiled and closed the distance.

  Namjoon was confused. He had no idea what the emotions he felt was, he knows he blacked out for a few seconds but he doesn't understand why. He left the room earlier, deciding to leave Yoongi, his roommate for the time being, alone for a bit. Namjoon can't remember a time where he lived life as a normal young adult. He knows he was deprived of many normal opportunities, but he sees where he is today and he doesn't regret it. He doesn't regret sticking with rap and not listening to his mother. He doesn't regret the walk that led to this curse, he doesn't regret Diana and her group. He just wishes everything is as normal as it can be for a small group from an even smaller company.

Namjoon shook these thoughts away as he reached the room, already pushing open the door, head down.

"Hey Yoongi-hyung, I'm ba—" at this moment he looked up to catch Yoongi push Hoseok away from him after being liplocked pretty tightly. Yoongi was bright red, with an even redder Hoseok who landed on the floor.

"What the actual fuck?" was all Namjoon said before stepping back out the room and closing the door. He looked up at the ceiling in a silent prayer and moved to sleep in Hoseok's room with Taehyung—again.

"Why do I always end up in the uncomfortable situations?"
