The war // BTS AU //

Chapter Ten

The comment Changbin had made about her humanity had lingered in Harper's mind for the rest of the day, until night time when she decided that she needed to finally get this mission over with and to retrieve her target and take him to America with her.

Her red unruly hair was tied back into a hair tie, and her clothes were dark enough to allow her to blend into the shadows somewhat. She stretched out as her joins clicked and relaxed before she left the apartment she was currently in. She could sense the magic all around her and she took a deep breath and located the stronger weilders just in case they decided to attack.

She locked the door and walked onto the streets tossing the little silver key Park Jimin had given her in her hand.

"You're on your way to get him, aren't you?" Chan asked, startling her. 

"I didn't sense your magic-"

"Felix concealed it for me, don't worry though... It's just him and I around." He lent off the wall, offering Harper a kind smile. "We won't stop you either. We wish you good luck, but for a different reason. We do not wish for you to take one of our own." 

"Then why wish me luck?"

"Felix?" Chan asked and that was when she felt Felix's hands on her shoulders and her magic replenish.

"You'll see eventually." Felix whispered. "Thank you for saving our leader, and thank you for taking out some of the terrorist group. It would be a pleasure to have you work alongside us properly at one point." 

Harper furrowed her eyebrows, and before she could say anything else, they had both vanished as wind whipped around them. She sighed, feeling Felix's magic transfer bubble in anticipation inside of her. "Thanks... I guess?" She spoke out to nobody before loading up the address on her phone and walking there.

"She's finally coming~" Taehyung cheered, his eyes focused on a point out the window of the building. "Do you think my magic set her off to get our little Kook?" He grinned, the box-like smile lighting up the dimly lit room.

"I doubt it." Yoongi huffed. "She's probably more homesick and tired of having to save people that she is meant to dislike." He got up out of his chair. "We better prepare for our guests arrival?"

"Nah, she's from one of the top camps in America - even they aren't nicer than this warehouse." Hoseok commented. 

Namjoon went to speak before he was cut off. "Nice place you guys have here, thanks for the key to get in. You made it very easy for me to get in." The voice echoed through the warehouse and all the boys jumped up ready to fight.

"I come with no harm, not yet anyway." She stepped out of the shadows causing Yoongi to turn to Namjoon.

"Your magic is shadow arts, how come you didn't sense her?" He near growled causing Namjoon to chuckle. 

"I control shadows, not what is in them."

"Thank's for the heads up on what magic you guys use." She winked playfully, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "It's a shame that fire trumps shadows."

Jungkook stood in shock as he watched as the fire grew from her fingertips and engulfed her body without burning her clothes - and he watched as the shadows vanished in the newly introduced light to the building. He couldn't even sense all her magic, and his eyes watched her in a trance.

Harper smiled softly and met his eyes. "Are we going to have to fight? Or will you come willingly Jeon Jungkook?"
