"Hey, Jungkookie. Are you okay?" Jimin mumbles softly as he pushes open the kitchen door and spots Jungkook standing by the window.  Jungkook sighs deeply and dips his head before smiling and nodding. "Who gave you permission to lie to your hyungs?" Jimin adds softly with a small smile as he glides over to Jungkook and leans on the kcounter by him. Jungkook mumbles a minute apology before sighing deeply again and rubbing his face.

"We have no idea where Taehyung or Y/N are and everyone's just arguing. Do you think they can make it back on their own? What if Taehyung freaks out? What if they get hurt? Jimin I-" Jungkook blurts out quickly, one question after another until Jimin quickly wraps his arms around him and hushes him gently. Jungkook sniffles softly as he wraps his arms around Jimin and lets out a shaky breath.

"Shhh, breathe. It'll be okay. Y/N is smart- you know that, right? She will get him back to us. Taehyung wont freak out again like he did last time because he has her. You should have more faith in Min Claire's granddaughter and a potential demon prince." Jimin whispers softly to Jungkook as he gently rocks him from side to side in his arms Jungkook slowly calms himself down and gradually pulls out of Jimin's hold.

"A demon prince? What's that? I didn't know Tae was one of them. Does Namjoon know?" Jungkook asks softly as he slowly scans Jimin's face. Jimin chuckles softly and sweeps his hair back of his face gracefully with a small grin.

"Demon princes are mega powerful, half demon- half mage thingy people. They're extremely rare and majorly dangerous- if they aren't taught properly. They can become consumed by their power and then they become demon lords which are really bad and try to kill everything. Namjoon doesn't actually know yet because I'm scared of what it will mean for Tae and hopefully he can keep his demonic stuff under control by himself. Is that all your questions?" Jimin explains slowly so Jungkook can understand, waving his hands around as he did so. Jungkook nodded slowly the whole time, his facial expressions changing from awe to fear to confusion.

"So we are living with a big-ass, possibly world-destroying, unstable, cry-baby, lover boy, demon-prince-lord-thingy-bomb?" Jungkook asks slowly as he lists each word on his fingers. Jimin thinks for a moment before nodding quickly.

"You cannot say a word to him or anyone else, okay? Telling him about it would destroy him, Jungkook." Jimin warns Jungkook seriously with a small frown that Jungkook returns before nodding.

"Does that mean that Tae could hurt us all at any second and he won't know?" Jungkook asks softly as he rubs his eyes with a small frown. Jimin sighs deeply and lifts himself up onto the counter to sit down before crossing his arms.

"If he starts to freak out like when you took his wings and he can't control it- yes. He will turn and he won't be Taehyung anymore. Tae will be dead and the demon lord will completely take his body." Jimin explains slowly as he rubs his hands together roughly. Jungkook examines him for a moment before nodding with a deep frown.

"Hyung, how do you know all of this?" Jungkook asks reluctantly as he leans on the counter and looks up at Jimin who sighs deeply and sweeps back his dark hair once more. Jimin closes his eyes for a moment before his hair slowly turns blonde and he smiles lightly.

"Demon princes all start off blonde. Later, we gain the ability to change our appearance. The blonde hair and the black wings are our trademark look, you could say." Jimin replies slowly as he hops off the counter and slowly turns so his back is to Jungkook before lifting his shirt and revealing two huge, black scars from where he had wings.

"You mean you're- and you never said? What if you lost control one day? Can you still turn into a demon lord?" Jungkook asks slowly in disbelief as Jimin pulls his shirt back down and reveals his once again black hair. Jimin nods, answering all of his questions but one.

"If I loose control, you run. You're not going to say any of this to anyone, right?" Jimin mumbles softly as he sweeps his hair back into its original position. Jungkook shakes his head quickly and Jimin smiles. "Okay good. Unless the others have a plan by now, we just need to sit and wait for our beautiful bomb to arrive." Jimin quickly smiles before patting Jungkook on the head and skipping out of the room to greet the grim-looking others.

"We don't have a plan. There's nothing we can do but wait." Namjoon announces loudly, his face unimpressed as he looks around at the boys who all nod slowly and understandably. Namjoon rubs his temple slowly as he leans against the wall and looks towards the door as if hoping Taehyung would walk through it with you at any second.

"Jimin, I overheard your conversation with Jungkook. I think you need to tell us all." Hoseok mumbles slowly to break the silence as he picks at his nail slightly. Jimin's eyes widen as he looks at Jungkook who did the same and gulped.
