"Fool!"

A loud smack echoed around the Iridium coated training room.

V spat out blood, falling to the floor. Jimin quickly crouched down to him and grabbed his black bangs in between his fist, yanking his head up. "Repeat after me. I do not want the throne. SAY IT!"

"Fuck you." V coughed out and gave him a bloody smile before Jimin slammed his face down to the ground, leaving him painfully trying to get back up. In the training room's atmosphere, injuries weren't made to heal quickly. He slowly felt the pain in his reopened wounds come back again.

"Damn it....damn it!" Jimin turned around and stomped his foot down onto his brother's stomach, forcing V to throw up bile. "Just give up already! How long do I have to do this?!" Jimin practically cried out in desperation.

"...Never...I'll never do that." V wheezed, chuckling with every last ounce of energy he has. "As long...as long as you want it so badly...I'll...I'll make sure I get it before you do."

"Oh yeah?" Jimin scoffed, digging his heel deeper into his brother's upper abdomen, crushing out the air in system. "We'll see about that."

V, with a shaky grip, grabbed Jimin's ankle, yanking him off. "Why don't you quit it first!" He yelled back.

"The throne belongs to me! Stay out of this!" Jimin roared back, bursting into red flames. He doubled over into a fit of curses and screams, stumbling back from V.

"A weakling like you..." V glowered his eyes, "should be ashamed to even think about the throne."

"Shut up! Shut up!" Jimin screamed, stumbling away quickly. His steps pounded the brick dungeon floor in the royal castle before he turned a corner and finally let himself fall to the floor, panting and crying.

"Damn it!" He scraped his long nails against the floor. "Why won't he give up! Just give up damn it..." he sniffled his tears back. "It hurts me so much...and I know it hurts you more. V, why don't you just listen to me!" He let out an agonizing scream. "Give up, damn it. You won't be able to kill me...so just...give up." Jimin had thought about this before. The thought was the first thing that crossed his mind when he overheard his father's plans of having him inherit the throne.

He wanted to kill himself. He had rather die than face his own twin in battle. Yet every time he tried, there was no use. Jimin couldn't die so easily. The demon wouldn't let him. The only thing he could do was either break his brother's will or get him strong and so hateful, enough that he'd be able to kill him if they were to ever go against each other in battle. There was nothing else he could do. Absolutely nothing.

V silently lurked in the shadows of the training dungeon, standing up on his shaking legs as he watched his older twin breakdown into screaming fits.

V snapped back to his harsh reality.

It zoomed back into him, forcing him to part away from the memories of his twin brother.

Slowly, with each image of Jimin in his head coming back to him, those too also faded away. It was getting harder and harder to even remember him now. His presence was fading out. There was nothing of him left with V except all he'd given by dying. Power and pain.

Meanwhile, Namjoon crept beside Hanul's bed, watching her lying there unconscious. After she had blacked out, Jungkook was the first one to help her. Truthfully, Namjoon could've done so too. He was closer to her in distance. He also knew he'd be better at handling this more than his mentally unstable younger brother. But honestly, Namjoon didn't really want to particularly save Hanul. He was indifferent.
