2: Quit Confusing Me

Jimin POV

"3 years ago, Jeon Jungkook was taken into custody and locked away on the other side of the country. Now, there's more of his 'works' around the city, carvings and burnings of all sorts. More students have died, even more adults have been killed. Young children have been kidnapped and we are assuming that his cult never did die with his arresting." Namjoon explained to me.

"Why are you telling me this exactly?"

"Because... we need you back on the team."

"You know I quit. I can't go back after what one of his members did to me. You do remember what happened right hyung?"

"Yes, and you won't get hurt like that again. I can guarantee it. But he's been acting suspicious for the past few months and we can't figure out what. You were the only one that managed to figure out who he was and what his weakness was. We can finally put an end to him if you just help us out."

"I need to meet him first, get a hold on his yearly files, what he's been doing, and I need a gun."

"Done."

"You sure you want to do this?" Hoseok asked me.

"It's apparently the only way to stop him and his god damn cult."

"Turn security on but block the mirror. I already know he's going to dodge if there's anyone watching him."

"What if he hurts you?"

"Then I'll break his hand."

The door buzzed open into the interrogation room.

"Jeon." His head snapped up towards me.

"Wow Park... 3 long years have passed and I finally see you again."

"Let me get to the point. What the fuck have you been doing?"

"How have you been? How's your shoulder been ever since the attack I heard about? Were you okay afterwards?"

"We aren't here to talk about me... it's about you and I believe I asked you a question."

"I don't have any idea what you're talking about. I'm just waiting for the next trial."

"You mean potential prosecution. And why have you been requesting more books to read?"

"Can a man not pursue his dream of writing?"

"Not in prison."

"Well, I've been able to access books simply because I wanted to."

"Who's Min Yoongi?"

"Don't know, I've never heard of him. But, I have missed you, quite a bit actually."

"And so I've heard. Why'd you send Yoongi to kill me?"

"Who tried to kill you? I'm telling you, I've never heard of this Yoongi character ever." He is blinking profusely, basic sign of anxiety which sparks lying.

"And you are a horrible liar. "

"Let me tell you a little something about a poem I read...

captured
inside his mind

turn
a dungeoned corner
to
paths of hellish screams

walls surround
smother me

stench of waste matter
repugnant

names written on
blood stained floors

pieces of flesh
rotten
yet
cry out
for revenge

and I
imprisoned for life
without parole

how did
I
fall in this
hell hole"

I stared, completely confused as to why he recited this poem to me.

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"That is for me to know and you to find out."

"Park, you're needed outside."

"This isn't over."

"Oh Jimin... it hasn't even begun."
