Chapter Nine - Plan A

Doyoung was throwing dagger after dagger at the bullseye. Each one landed in the dead centre of it.

The door to the training room can be heard squeaking as it opens. The dark haired male turns to throw the dagger in the direction of the intruder.

Jaehyun raises a hand, causing the blade to drop to the floor as though it hit an invisible wall.

Doyoung rolls his eyes as he continues to throw daggers.

"You would never train when you had to yet as soon as you grew angered with me, off to training you'd go" Jaehyun recalls as he slowly walks over to the other.

"I never liked being told what to do" Doyoung walks over to the bullseye and pulls out all the daggers. "Picturing your face in the centre always helps to make sure I don't miss."

Jaehyun raises his brows in amusement. "I love you too."

"How could you be so stupid?" Doyoung turns to face him, frustration taking over his tone.

"You saw Taeyong out in the streets before. There's something inside him which we don't understand. Yuta does, I want to help Taeyong and the only way to do that is to go to Yuta." The blond haired male responds firmly.

"Did you forget that Yuta killed my boyfriend?! What's going to stop him from killing Taeyong? He hates us, Jaehyun" Doyoung snaps harshly.

"What else do we do? I don't hear any suggestions coming from you" The younger exasperates.

Doyoung lets out a yell in frustration as he stabs all of the daggers into the target behind him.

"I don't care what we do. Taeyong can burn in hell for all I care."

"Doyoung" Jaehyun calls the older's name bitterly.

"I will not watch as my closest friend hands his lover over to be slaughtered." The dark haired male speaks softly.

He can't go through what I did. No one should have to go through that kind of pain.

Jaehyun hears from Doyoung's mind.
"He isn't my lover" Jaehyun corrects him.

"Yet. I know you like him. Why else would you be so willing to get help from the enemy?" The dark haired queries.

"Worst comes to worst, I'm stronger than Yuta. I would be able to stop him" Jaehyun tries to change the topic back to what it was.

"Yes you're stronger but not when you're with Taeyong. Your feelings for him are wreaking your powers. He would've seriously hurt you if I didn't stop him back in the city." Doyoung retorts.

"Tell me what I have to do then. Tell me how we should attack this" The blond hair crosses his arms against his chest.

Doyoung goes silent and avoids the younger's gaze as he goes into deep thought. His eyes seem to light up as he comes up with an idea.

"Yuta goes to a warlock each month to put a block over his mind. This block keeps you out."

Jaehyun smiles to himself as he reads the rest of Doyoung's plan straight from his mind.

"We have to get him to undo his spell" The blond haired states firmly. "We have to find him first."

Doyoung goes to respond but is stopped as his eyes suddenly roll into the back of his head. He doesn't fall to the ground, he remains on his feet.

Jaehyun doesn't panic, he knows exactly what's happening.

The dark haired male opens his eyes once more and faces Jaehyun once again.

"Taeyong has lost control again, he's at the apartment" He explains. Jaehyun doesn't hesitate before rushing back to the dinner table.

Jungwoo and Taeil both look at the blond haired male in confusion as he enters the room.

"Jungwoo we have to go and we have to go now. Taeyong's apartment." Jaehyun orders the blue haired male.

Jungwoo places down his cutlery and grabs Jaehyun's arm. The pair dissolve into thin air, leaving Taeil behind, confused as hell.

><

"Chill bro, it was only a suggestion" Lucas speaks with his hands raised in surrender as he slowly backs away to the far end of the room.

Taeyong's eyes have turned black as he stares at his friend in rage. The hair upon his head has been fully engulfed with black colouring. Not even a strand of pink hair remains.

"You don't get to make choices for me Lucas" Taeyong's voice echoes as though several voices were speaking at once.

"I get it now. I'm sorry, can we stop doing the whole 'I want to kill you thing' and let's order a pizza" Lucas suggests.

His heart races with fear as he walks into the wall. His back is now firmly against the surface, no longer can he back away.

Taeyong goes to step forward but is stopped as he feels a warm hand on his forehead. He goes to hell out but crumpled to the floor before any sound can come out.

Lucas looks in horror but is relieved to see Jaehyun standing behind Taeyong who is now unconscious on the floor. The blue haired male who choked on his tongue the other day is beside him.

Lucas tilts his head as he examines the man. He's meant to be dead. He saw this man die.

"We will take over from here, you just rest" Jaehyun flicks his wrist in the others direction. Lucas collapses to the ground as he falls asleep.

><

Taeyong opens his eyes to see Jaehyun looking over him. He instantly sits up and is quick to realise that he is back at the house.

"What happened?" The newly dark haired male questions, his tone underlined with panic.

"You tried to kill your friend. But he's okay, I got there just in time" Jaehyun explains as he helps Taeyong onto his feet. "I cast a spell on you, it's one that puts any dark magic to sleep. Hence you slept for six hours. The spell has worn off for now. I'd appreciate it if you didn't try to kill me."

Taeyong nods slowly as he takes a few steps away from the younger. He feels terrible. First he attacked Jaehyun then he moved onto his closest friend.

He is scared.

He can't control whatever this thing inside him is.

It scares him.

"Don't get too scared, we are going to figure this out" Jaehyun suddenly speaks, bringing the older's mind back to the present.

The blond haired male slowly walks over to him and gently grabs his shoulders, giving them a squeeze of assurance.

"We are going to pay another warlock a visit. It will take us a step closer to helping you."

"When do we leave?" Taeyong raises his gaze to meet with Jaehyun's. His eyes slowly flicker to the younger's lips and a brief thought passes his mind, he wonders if his lips are soft. Whether they would mould with his own, nicely.

Before he can move his gaze away, Jaehyun leans forward, pressing his lips against the older's.
