The Elites

Prologue

District 7
Party Over

Taehyung's District was holding its annual spring break party. Everyone in Valdare was here. Whenever Taehyung threw a party, he only had one rule: lose yourself. This made his parties fun but also dangerous.

He is the rebellious one of his brothers and the one his brother trust the least.

Taehyung was close to all of his brothers especially to his twin Jimin who was the "better" twin because he followed all the rules and demands given by their father.

It was well past midnight and the party was still in full swing. Taehyung looked around for his brothers to see if they were enjoying themselves and only saw Jimin and his youngest brother Jungkook who looked drunk. Taehyung continued looking around for his older brothers when someone grabbed his shoulder and spun him around.

"Looking for us little brother." said Namjoon who smirked at his younger brother before giving him a hug. Yoongi, Seokjin and Hoseok stood behind him and they embraced Taehyung as well.

"I didn't think you guys would come....Especially after last year." Taehyung smiled hesitantly recalling what happened at his spring break party the year before. Namjoon had brought his girlfriend Amber who had a little too much to drink with Taehyung and they ended up making out. Namjoon found out and left. He hadn't talked to Taehyung for months and it was still awkward but Namjoon loved Taehyung and forgave him.

"Let's not bring that up Tae. I'm single this year, I just want to have a good time." Namjoon said and walked towards the bar.

"The girls in here are all...old news." said Yoongi scanning the room for some new unsuspecting girl to take home. Yoongi prided himself on how many women he could charm having no intention of getting serious. His brothers always encouraged him to settle down or to find someone to be with for more than a night but Yoongi only responded saying "why pick one when one hundred are picking me?". This philosophy is why his district had more women than men.

"Yoongi please don't be yourself tonight. Isn't that your rule Taehyung? Lose yourself? Yeah Yoongi act the opposite of yourself and leave these women alone." said Seokjin the oldest brother. He rarily showed up to his brothers events because of how much he worked and he was trying to be everything their father wanted in order to inherit Valdare. His father often overlooked him because he was the half brother whose mother died during childbirth. Their father remarried quickly and kept the secret from his sons but as Seokjin grew older he could not help but see his mother in him. Seokjin only knew of the woman who his father was married to, never knowing he only shared a father with his brothers.

"That's easy for you to say Hyung, where is Dana?" Yoongi asked smugly crossing his arms to face Seokjin.

"We broke up...She said I never had time for her." He said sadly.

"You do work a lot Hyung. Get yourself a drink and lose yourself for the night." Taehyung threw his arm over his older brother as they went towards the bar where Namjoon was.

"Why are you so quiet Hoseok?" Asked Yoongi who looked at the brother he was closest to curiously. Hoseok was the Peacemaker of the brothers and often burdened with making sure they all kept their heads. He despised his father for giving them separate districts to rule. When each of them turned 16 they were "gifted" with a district. Hoseok declined it after he saw Seokjin get hospitalized from overwork and stress as well as his beloved brother Yoongi become a womanizer. Their father disregarded his rejection and forced him to take on a district. In his district he allowed his people to almost rule themselves and only took authority when there were district disputes. This infuriated his father who immediately took him out of the running for control of Valdare.

"I dont have a good feeling about this party. Something is going to happen that none of us will like." Hoseok stated.

"There you two are! Why are you still standing over here, get in the mix of things." said Jimin smiling as he grabbed their hands and pulled them deeper into the crowd of people.

"Hoseok doesn't have a good feeling." Yoongi said. He knew Hoseok well enough to know that his intuition was hardly ever wrong.

"Hyung doesn't have good feelings about anything. You two should just enjoy yourselves. Not you Yoongi hyung let these people's daughters go home in peace." Jimin said before he began dancing. Yoongi and Hoseok looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders before beginning to dance.

~~~~~ 2 hours later

All the brothers had gathered in a VIP lounge. The party was still going on and people didnt look to be the least bit tired ready to go home.

Jungkook was laying across Taehyung and Jimin's lap with a trashcan underneath him because he had been throwing up for the past hour. He did a drinking contest and won but he felt nothing like a winner.

"Its 3 in the morning, I should go." Seokjin announced as he stood up.

"Hyung I need to talk to you about something." Namjoon said standing with him as they walked towards the curtain that separated them from the party when they heard a mic squeal and the music turned off.

All the brothers stood up to see who was on the small stage with the DJ. It was their father.

"Since when does father attend your parties?" Jimin asked Taehyung who shrugged and looked at his father as he began to speak.

"Good Evening everyone, or should I say Morning." Their father laughed at his own joke while the crowd remained silent. He cleared his throat and continued. "I have an announcement for my sons as well as for the people of Valdare. There will be an 8th district for one of my sons to inherit." The crowd began to murmur in confusion and the brothers exchanged looks of disbelief, shock, disappointment and excitement. "The one who will inherit this district will be the one who captures the heart of Amoria." He said gesturing to his right as a woman strided towards him.

"Is that Amoria from Glendale?" Asked Taehyung.

"I believe so. Father wants to play games with us it seems." Hoseok stated shaking his head.

"She is the one who sent those conspirators to try and make our people turn against us. Father knows about this, what is he trying to pull?" Asked Namjoon.

"I think he just wants to be entertained." Seokjin stated flatly.

"Oh really? Then we should put on a show." Jimin suggested. "Father wants to make a fool of us, let's make a fool of him." He smiled as he thought of a plan.

"Jimin the good boy is suggesting we rebel against Father? Am I drunk?" Yoongi teased.

"Not rebel just beat him at his own game. Its hard enough on all of us having our one district now. And he thinks waving this new district in our face will tear us apart." Jimin explained.

"Something else is going on too. I don't know what the motive is but I agree with Jimin on playing the game. Let's see what he might have up his sleeve." Said Namjoon as they all looked at the stage seeing their father smiling with Amoria.
