Saving The Prince (Jikook fanfic ~ Smut Warning)

Chapter 1

~Weeks later~

~Jimin's P.O.V~

I woke up with a strange feeling in my stomach, like something was about to happen. Jungkook had been acting different for a few weeks, more clingy, more concerned, more protective. I wondered what was going on as I heard shuffling outside my door, it was still dark.

I pretended to be asleep as the door creaked open. An eerie hush filled my room there was a heavy drag in my heart, a chill crept up my spine. I was frozen to my bed as words were muttered, words I could not comprehend. I felt my body lift, not of my own accord and a prickling feeling encased my entire body. A warm glow pried my eyes open and I watched as my legs were covered in a green haze, I tried to scream but no sound could be heard. 

...

I rubbed my eyes and warily opened them, oh shiz, I'm not in my room. My parents are gonna kill me. I've never seen this part of the castle before. I thrashed around for a bit, feeling weightless.

Oh god, oh no,was it really just a dream? 

What do I do? Where am I?

I took a second to breathe, then realized I couldn't, I whipped my hands up to my throat to find the reason. 

Was I suffocating? No. 

Was I breathing? No. 

What could this mean? Was I cursed? Is that what the green haze was earlier?  

I felt something along my throat, it felt like slits. I soon registered that the reason I was floating, is because I was in water. Everything made sense to me in that moment, I had gills to breathe, I was in water. I looked down to see if my theory was correct and saw my worst nightmare, the most horrible thing I could imagine.

Instead of two legs, I had a tail - like a mermaid.

~3rd person~

The witch looked into her tank, watching the ex-prince Jimin grasp his throat and become aware of his gills. She watched his eyes pop as he observed his beautiful tail. The witch was intrigued at her work, proud even: she had turned the Prince into a merman. 

She was jealous of him, see, he was so beautiful and she hated it. He was just so perfect up there in his castle, so perfect, so unreachable. She couldn't bear to watch him from afar, she hated his beauty. She hated how protectedhe was and how she couldn't lay a single twisted finger on him. The witch longed to be as beautiful as he was. 

So she mixed up the perfect plan, it was so good, so so evil. She watched as her plan swung into action and the pieces of the puzzle came together. 

She had caught the prince last night when the castle was sleeping soundly, she saw him and just could not wait to turn him into a merman - so she did, there and then. She uttered those magic words and with a swish of her wand, he was transforming above his bed. 

Now it was onto the next step: getting Jimin from her tank into the sea. 

She would have to be careful. If anyone saw her, she knew she'd be in big trouble. She also knew she had to be nice to the prince, or at least act nice - this would help with his cooperation.

The witch decided she would do it as soon as possible, she would make the transfer now. She hated seeing him, she wanted him out of her sight. 

The witch knocked on the glass of the tank, she watched her own reflection, the color in her old dull face was back. The familiar glint in her wrinkly features was as she had remembered. The prince turned in the water to look at her, his bright blue eyes were striking in the natural light. 

The witch and the prince watched each other's movements carefully. The prince stared directly into her eyes with a challenging glare. The witch simply laughed. She knew he could not hear her from the other side of the glass so she didn't even attempt talk to him. The witch turned and pulled a lever which drained the tank. 

When the water was low enough to open the top hatch she had used to place Jimin into the tank, she climbed the steps to re-open it. Jimin would not remember being put in the tank as the magic was too strong for him to handle and he had passed out. 

Jimin immediately reached for the opening to pull himself up. The witch gave Jimin an approving look, she was admiring the prince's graceful movements. She opened her mouth to speak but closed it again as she found no words, his beauty took them from her and she hated it. 

Jimin began "My name is Park Jimin, I am the prince of this kingdom and I demand you tell me what is happening and where I am this instant."

The witch hated that, he sounded so self-important and annoying. She sighed because she knew he'd be exactly like this. She cleared her throat.

"Let's get one thing straight," she croaked, "you don't give the orders around here, you take them, from me."

The prince was appalled at the woman's reply, he had never been talked to in such a manner. It must've showed on his face because she cackled wickedly. 

"You will never see your castle again Jimin, I'm taking you to somewhere far, far away so I never have to see your face again."

Jimin was dumbfounded, he could only gawk at her stupid proposal. He had never heard such a wild idea in all his life. As Jimin gaped at her, the witch fluffed about, preparing what looked like a small cart. 

"Sit." she commanded, pointing at the cart.

"I c-can't move." Jimin blushed.

The witch growled, "don't be stupid, use your arms." 

She huffed as Jimin shook his head, the witch grasped her wand and mumbled some words. Jimin was astonished at how effortlessly he floated from where he was sitting to the cart and was placed down gently into it. The witch immediately began fluttering about, preparing for something. She grabbed blankets, a few bottles, her wand, a book, and a fishing net. She stuffed all of these items into the cart alongside Jimin, then covered him with another blanket, passing him a damp cloth.

"Put this over your gills," she motioned to the cloth, "it'll keep them damp."

Jimin did as he was told, remembering her threatening tone of voice earlier. The witch started down a steep ramp, the cart followed with just a simple click of her fingers.
