Episode 25: L u c i d D r e a m s

"What the hell is wrong with you guys?" I crossed my arms and glared at the assembly of brothers crowded in Jungkook's room.

"I'd like to understand that too!" Namjoon glared at Jungkook. "What were you thinking? Speaking up against him? Do you wish to die?!"

"I'm tired of this!" Jungkook fought back. "How long do I have to tremble at the mere sound of our brothers and Xapham! Look where that lead to! An innocent girl's death and once again an absolute rule under terror!"

"You'll tremble for as long as you want to live, that's how long!" Namjoon burst into purple flames. "Assuming you even want to live anymore!"

"Woah!" I took a step closer, trying to ease the tension in the air. "Relax, would you? Jungkook isn't wrong here. Why the hell are you, no, not just you, all of you. You guys are suddenly so submissive to those jerks."

"It's not like we want to be," Jin sighed. "But as you may have noticed, we can die with a snap of Jimin's fingers if he wanted us to. So, yeah. No thanks. I have collections to collect."

"You guys are a bunch of cowards." I scoffed, shaking my head with disappointment. I glanced at Suga who was standing in the corner quietly observing me. "What about you? Aren't you able to see the outcome of this mess? If you guys won't fight back things are seriously going to get twisted on Earth!"

"I can only see, you mortal. I can't intervene with what's meant to happen."

"That's a load of crap!" I snapped, feeling the anger burning inside of me. Lately, after finding out what I can do, I felt changed. More empowered, even I know I'm still weaker. I'm more impatient and snappy when I never used to like uttering one cuss. It angered me even more now that I know they had this effect on me. This must be the effect of losing my sanity after living with demons for almost two months.

"Oh, feisty now are we?" J-hope snickered.

"Who said you can't intervene? It's because you don't intervene that everything is meant to happen. If you can see the freaking future then change it!"

"I can't! We can't! No one can! You fool! I've done it once to save you and now look what's happened!" Suga snapped back. "Who do you think you are to suddenly speak of the natural balance?"

"Oh, a natural balance?" I laughed, remembering Hongbin's words. "Well, with the way I see it, there isn't going to be a balance anymore."

"She's right." Namjoon grimly spoke up. "We've all felt it too, but we have been ignoring it. The barriers between Abaddon, Savannah, and Xapham are thinning."

"You're right on that." Jin scoffed with the agreement. "They're definitely thinning."

"But if so, then that means that father's going to come here soon. And then we're all going to die!" Jungkook panicked, grabbing his head in his hands as his eyes widened with a realization of fear eating away his sanity. "None of this should've happened. Why did this happen to us? We should've never come here? We shouldn't have. Jimin shouldn't have. V shouldn't have. You shouldn't have!" He glared at Namjoon as his eyes turned blue. "I...I shouldn't--"

Before Jungkook could finish the word, Namjoon placed his palm on his forehead and the kid fell back on to his bed unconsciously.

I shook my head with disbelief. "I'm not going to sit around and wait like this. You guys have to help me. I'm practically their freaking toy now!"

"Why should we?" J-hope blankly suggested to me.

"Really?" I glared at him with shock. I never harbored anything towards him, since he never really tried to get on my bad side, but with him, I always felt a mysterious vibe coming from him. Like everything was a joke or some game to him.
