Namjoon was irritated with Jungkook, since the stupid git followed him around as a kindergartener.

"Piss off, Jungkook." he said as the mist followed him into his apartment.

"Talk like you don't have a sin, Namjoon." Jungkook snapped, materializing into a young man.

"Why don't you go play with Taehyung at VARE?," Namjoon spat out, then instantly regretted it.

"That fool gave up to VARE." Jungkook muttered. "He allowed himself to get confined in a high security cage." Namjoon glanced sideways, looking at the window, then looked back at the misty figure of Jungkook.

"You're talking like you didn't give in as well." Namjoon scowled. "You'd still be a level 1 if you didn't give in."

"It's my choice, Namjoon." Jungkook said, glaring at him. "All Taehyung wanted was to live life as a normal person, but he wasn't normal, now was he?," he said as Namjoon opened his mouth. Namjoon snapped it shut again, looking away from Jungkook in embarrassment.

"Namjoon, I never promised you that I wouldn't end up like this." The misty gemischt said, smiling. Pain was visible in Jungkook's eyes. Namjoon saw this before, but that was almost a decade ago, when they were still kids.

Namjoon was walking in Busan with Jin, Jimin, Yoongi, Jungkook, Hoseok, and Taehyung one night, heading for the grocery store.

Just after the grocery materialized in their view, there was a speeding car towards them. The car stopped and people in white robes jumped out of the car, grabbing them all.

"We're harmless!," Jungkook shrieked. "We're only kids!,"

The men in white still had their arms wrapped around the boys' necks. Namjoon was struggling to breathe. Jimin was crying uncontrollably. Jungkook was still shrieking about their innocence. Jin was trying his best to bite the guy who was handling him. Hoseok was trembling and fresh hot tears streamed down his face. Yoongi spat out curse words at the men.

Taehyung was silent.

Namjoon looked at Taehyung. At the feeble age of 9, the boy was already a level 3 gemischt.

"I surrender." Taehyung muttered, tears streaming down his face. "Just please, don't hurt my friends. I'm the one with the highest level among these ones."

Jungkook stared at him, for Jungkook was also a level 3 gemischt.

"No, Taehyung!," Jungkook shrieked as the men escorted Taehyung inside their car.

Jin couldn't handle this, and jumped at one of the men and bit him, injecting deadly fluids on the man.

His other co-workers also took hold of Jin.

"No, please stop!," Jungkook pleaded as the rest of the team simply watched from a distance, in shock.

Jungkook was flung aside by one man and hit a nearby tree, which knocked him out.

Something inside Jimin snapped, then he went chasing the speeding car and the others haven't seen him since. They all suspected he was killed during the chase.

Hoseok moved away to France, and was never heard from again.

Yoongi fell into great despair. He refused to go outside his house until he was also forcibly captured by VARE.
