"Yoongi!" Yells a voice.

Yoongi looks around in the dark void looking for the source of the voice.

"Yoongi wake-up!"

His eyes snap open and he's met with two pairs of eyes looking down at him. He quickly sits up and looks around.

"Where's Jimin?" He asks after a while of silence.

The other two glance at each other before Namjoon answers.

"He's... gone." Namjoon answers hesitantly.

"What do you mean gone?" Yoongi asks.

"He means the Shadow Demon took him." Says the unnamed man.

"What?" Yoongi asks quickly getting up.

"Calm down, I'm sure we can figure something out. In the mean time, we have to find a way to find him." Says Namjoon.

"And what's that, huh? Where is this place you were going to take us? Certainly not that village, because incase you haven't noticed, it is fucking empty!" Yoongi says glaring at Namjoon.

"Look Yoongi I know you're mad, but if you could just shut up for a min—" The unnamed man starts but is cut off by Yoongi.

"Shut up? You want me to shut up? After some fucking demon took Jimin? I'm beyond angry!" Yoongi yells.

"Yoongi we have to go, there could be guards coming." Said the unnamed man.

Yoongi looks at the two and then turns towards the forest. The three stay quiet for quite a while. When the unnamed man is about to speak Namjoon puts a hand up to his mouth.

In the distance, the soft sound of metal clanking could be heard, followed by quiet shouts.

"They're coming." Mutters Namjoon. "We have to go."

"But Jimin!" Protests Yoongi.

"Look he's gone ok! All we can do now is run and survive." Says Namjoon glaring at him.

"So you're saying we're just going to leave as if that didn't happen?" Asks Yoongi.

Namjoon doesn't answer and instead looks back at the forest. He looks back at Yoongi, tears glistening his eyes.

"Look I don't want to leave anyone behind but we're going to have to leave him. We don't even know where the demon went, we'll just have to move on and hope he's ok." Says Namjoon.

Yoongi stares at him for a second and then at the other guy. He then turns his gaze to the forest where the noise had gotten slightly louder.

"You two go ahead." He says after a few seconds.

"What?" Namjoon asks shocked. "Yoongi we're not leaving you."

"You have to." Says Yoongi not looking at the two.

"Now you're just speaking nonsense. We have to go Yoongi, now." Says the unnamed man.

"I don't think I should go." Says Yoongi.

"What do you mean?" Asks Namjoon confused.

"They found us because of me. If I had stayed put, maybe the soldiers wouldn't have found our location and be heading towards us right now. And maybe Jimin would still be here." He says whispering the last part.

"Yoongi, this is not a time to be feeling regret. We all make stupid mistakes, yes, but we always get over them and move on. Right now is the perfect time to move on." Says Namjoon.

Although Namjoon has said that in one of his most serious voices, Yoongi seemed to not hear him nor care.

"I'll hold them back. You guys go." Says Yoongi.
