"Welcome"

*HYE JIN'S POV*

When taehyung opened the door it felt like i had walked into another dimension entirely. The walls were the darkest shade of black, scraped. The ceiling curved upward in the center almost like an outward dome.

The evening light was not helping as it sent a dark farewell across the walls, our shadows became definite, making it look frightening than it actually was.

When we heard someone say welcome, we turned around to see yoongi standing in distance with a smug look on his face.

"Yoongi.." hani breathed out.

I did not fail to notice the hint of sadness in yoongi's eyes as he glanced at hani briefly before returning his attention back to taehyung and i.

"Where is jimin?" Taehyung asked.

"Well let me tell you how impressed i am with your timing, had you come a little later than this, this little angel wouldn't be alive." yoongi spoke pointing in a certain direction.

I struggled to look through the darkness only to find jimin standing at a distance, tied and bruised.

"You deserve a reward for making this happen hye jin. Guess we'll let you meet your father before killing all of you." He chuckled and started walking away.

"Come along, The queen is waiting for you."

Just the mention if hyewon sent shivers down my spine, i could feel several knots tying and untying inside my stomach. The next few minutes held our future, and we were surely not certain, where it would lead us.

We hesitantly started sauntering towards the way yoongi took us. As yoongi stopped, i lifted up my head to look at my surroundings.

The next thing i saw made me lose my mind. Two colossal cages, which almost looked illusory held taehyung's and my father inside, covered in the purple magical mist.

The sight of my father immured in a cage, helpless made me feel ignoble. All these years when i thought of my father, i pictured a strong man. And he indeed was a strong man, if it weren't for hyewon and her mind games, he wouldn't have been in this state.

Taehyung shared the same countenance as me. He had lost his father before i did, he was not given a chance to even cherish his memories. I bet it was harder for him to look at his father than it was for me.

As i continued to feel impotent, standing and gaping at the massive cages, several men dressed in black made their way into the room.

Their faces covered with a hood, they each dragged every single one of us farther into the place. Only then i had noticed, yoongi had already walked away into the direction, we were being dragged right now.

It almost looked like we were in an ancient court of some emperor. The intramural of this place we had just entered was dissimilar to the previous room where our fathers were kept.

The walls glowed, a dark shade of purple with a hint of gold here and there. The place was huge, with a ceiling that looked like the one you'd find at a museum. With red and purple mixed in it, my eyes hadn't failed to notice the satanic structures and dragons everywhere in this place.

Just below the ceiling, i could see a huge purple throne with diamonds and other gems studded in it

Just below the ceiling, i could see a huge purple throne with diamonds and other gems studded in it. And there she sat, the queen of evil. Hyewon.

She smiled when my eyes met hers, and never have i ever seen a smile more evil than hers.

"Finally. Taehyung and Hye jin." As the words slipped her mouth, i felt hatred in every inch of my body. Never in my life i hated my name more than this.

"I don't want to waste anymore time. I want to experience how it feels to have the healing powers that no other witch has had in 400 years. I want to experience the immense power of fire and water combined. I want to experience everything that you two have, every power of yours. I will be the most powerful witch ever after i kill you both and i cant wait for it!"

Just as she finished i looked over and taehyung to see if he was thinking the same thing i was. He nodded and i understood what we were about to do.

"Bold of you to assume you could ever have any of my powers, hyewon." i smirked.

That was the moment everyone snapped their heads in my direction. This entire time, pertaining to the situation, we had been acting very weak and helpless. But in reality we had a plan and we were so not losing to this dipshit bag of arrogance named hyewon.

Hyewon was inept, she was a complete parasite and she would be nothing without her army. And that is what exactly we had planned.

"What did you just say kid? Your hands are tied and you're standing with a bowed head in front of me. You dare talk like that to me?" Hyewon asked arrogantly.

"Bold of you to assume that you could kill us hyewon. You're nothing in front of us." Taehyung spoke, repeating partially what i had said earlier.

Yoongi growled in our direction. "Talk like that to her one more time and I'll make sure you never talk again." he said.

The one advantage we had was, no one else except for hyewon could kill us. We were pretty sure she had warned everyone not kill us because if we died, she could never have the powers we held.

"What are you? Her pet? Oh i forgot, that's exactly what you are, min yoongi." Taehyung spoke, hatefully.

Yoongi angrily stomped towards his direction and held him by his collar. "what did you say?" he spat out.

"Yoongi." Hyewon spoke, warning him not to kill taehyung.

"Get down on your knees." yoongi ordered.

"For what? To suck your di--"

"Taehyung! Get down on your knees." Yoongi shouted again.

"Will not" taehyung said stubbornly.

"Okay." yoongi said as he angrily walked towards chaerin and dragged her by her hair. He yanked her head forcefully and held it in front of a wall.

"Now?" Yoongi smirked.

Chaerin yelped painfully as yoongi kept a tight hold on her hair.

Taehyung looked at her with pain in his eyes and kneeled down in front of hyewon.

"Taehyung.. No."
