Castle of Lies [BTS FF]

02: Arrival

As soon as the carraige stopped, y/n threw herself to the ground and emptied the contents of her stomach at the side of the road.

She could feel someone rubbing her back in comfort while another hand held back her hair that could have gotten in the way. Y/n didn't get time to see whose hands these were as she was concentrating on emptying the contents in  her stomach.

Finally after what seemed like years, y/n shakily pushed herself of the ground almost stumbling but managed to catch herself at the last minute.

" Re- Remind me not to go on a carraige next time, ugh my stomach feels like it's gonna kill itself, ughhh" y/n shuddered, using a cloth to wipe her mouth.

Shaking her head to clear her mind, y/n slowly looks up to see two guys looking at her, concerned.

Jimin spoke up first, " Hey, you sure you're okay to continue? You can take a few minutes to take a breather, " Taehyung seemed to agree with Jimin as he nodded his head so quickly that y/n was afraid it will fall off.

Sending her a boxed smile, Taehyung continued, " Yeah, Jiminie is right, we're only walking the rest of the way and  we can't have our new precious friend be hurt, right Jiminie? "

Sending y/n a crinkled eye smile Jimin gave a short chuckle", " He's  right you know. "

Becoming flustered, y/n quickly shook her head though warm at the thought of them being so considerate to her , "N-no its fine really, I'm capable of walking the rest of he way, besides the king's future knight should not be weak! How can a knight protect her king, is she cannot protect herself? Hypocrisy I must say! "

Y/n ended her mini speech with a little pose at the end. A hand on  her hip and one arm pointing skywards she gave a short huff of breath before nodding determinantly at both of the boys.

"Come on! Let's go! We have wasted so much time already! "
Taking both boys hands in hers, she pulls them along with her.

Eventually reaching their destination the trio of youngsters stopped at the front of the gate, with their mouths hanging wide open.

The castle was beautiful. The open gates stood tall and proud while the polished windows shine brightly under the shining sun. Flowers littered the pathway in an orderly fashion creating an enchanted look to the front garden. The palace itself stood tall and majestic, almost seemingly magical if you looked close enough, it glittered in some parts when the sunlight hit it.

Sure they had seen the castle in pictures and other things but seeing it in person was a much different experience.
The detailed glass windows that shone under the bright sun, held drawings of many different events. From the first King's coronation, wars and to the most recent victory their King achieved. The destruction of the green eyed demon.

The green eyed demon was the Omelas Kingdom's greatest enemy . Because of him, many people died and many lost friends and loved ones. His reason? He enjoyed watching people suffer. He enjoyed the tension and sorrow and anger that grew within peoples hearts. He feeds off the emotions of despair and other dark emotions. It is what caused him to become stronger, bigger and scarier.

He was one of the main reasons that y/n wanted to become a King's knight. To avenge her family. He killed them all, no mercy at all. She remembered when her mother hid her at the first raid, she remembered hearing the painful screams and grunts that came out of her dear mother's mouth. She remembered holding what was left of her poor mother's dying bloody body. Even if the demon was killed, no one knew the demon had a son, who was also sick in the same way.
