Chapter 54: T e a r s  O f  A  D e m o n

Two hours later...

Satan.

The fallen angel that brought on sins, cruelty, hatred, and havoc stirring within the wavering faiths of the human race.

Satan the ruler of hell.

Satan the evil-doer cursed till judgment day.

Satan.

He was standing right before us. In the flesh and bone.

I shut my eyes seeing it all and more.

Everything was passing through my soul like a quick film. Rushing into my brain's vivid memories.

Screams. Cries. Wails. Small feet. Tears. Darkness. Flash. Flash. Flash. All in flashes.

"Jimin!!!" V agonizing cry shook my soul with heavy realization.

The air grew still around us. Like something was stolen away from it. A presence of someone was taken—unannounced.

I took in a shaky breath, blinking my blurry vision away. The world was processing around me with slow motion. The voices were growing faint. V's cries were drowning out by a ringing sound in my head. I just wanted to shut my eyes, disappear, or turn back time.

Time tells no lie.

I tried shaking off the sluggish feeling, but I began to hyperventilate.

And just like that, the world sped up back to normal.

Everything heightened. And when my eyes slowly trailed down to V's arms, I knew it. I saw it so clearly. His tears were falling down on Jimin's pale, cold face. Mixing with the black blood splattered on his lifeless cheeks.

I saw it clearly now, more than ever. Especially when I looked into Jimin's half-open eyes. They were full of nothing.

Jimin was dead.

Two hours earlier...

"Oh...my lord!" Leyla gasped, pressing a hand to her chest, looking up at Satan himself. My mouth grew dry and my body fell into a state of shock. Leyla quickly shuffled up closer to him. "My lord! I have waited for this glorious day. I've yearned to be by your side this whole time!"

Satan's brow lifted, blankly staring back at Leyla with a small smirk. "Ah, yes Leyla. How are you? I know I banished you into this world, but I was expecting you to be a little less pathetic. Seems you've gotten more tragic."

Leyla's eye widened. "My lord! I have never once stopped loving you, even if you've sent me to this cursed land! Oh, the sacrifices I have offered in your name! My lord, please--"

"Oh, shut-up will you?" Satan picked his ears, giving a look of disinterest. "You're definitely not the only bitch who's told me that before."

Oh man, was this Satan guy a character.

"Anyway, what have we here? Jimin and V. Oh and the other two," he glanced at Namjoon and Jungkook who looked like they were practically on the verge of getting a heart attack. "Namjoon and...Ah, sorry, I forgot who you are again." He pointed at Jungkook. "You're that little cry baby aren't you? Jung...hm, or was it Jum?"

Jungkook's lips quivered before he fell down to the ground, panting and sweating with terror filling his eyes. "F-F-Fath..." He gasped, choking on his spit.
