Jimin stayed in bed, staring into the ceiling, his mind was racing with thoughts that couldn't stop. He sighed as he sat up, he looked over at the clock, it read 2:30 A.M. it was basically morning but it was still dark. He got out of bed and went to the bathroom, turn on the sink and he watched the water run down, he splashed some water on his face, hoping the water will stop the thoughts. As he turned to get the towel he saw that he had a birthmark behind his ear, which is shaped like a cross. He was confused at first cause he never seen this birthmark before. He just shook it off, dried the water off of his face and went back to bed, finally getting some sleep.

Soon morning came, I woke up before everyone else. I got out of bed and put on some yoga pants that went over my knees and a tank top, I tied my hair into a ponytail and I walked out of the bedroom and headed to the twins room to check on them, they were still asleep. I smiled as I walked out and head to the basement where the gym was located. I wrapped my hands in boxing cloth and I started to throw punches and kicks towards the punching bag. I became angry as I was punching, remembering my faults and mistakes and I throw one last punch onto the punching bag, punching bag went flying, destroying it in two. I breathed heavily as I went to get a new one and hung it up. I stopped training and went upstairs to the kitchen, the others were awake. Jungkook was holding Minerva and Namjoon was holding Xavier. "Good morning Everyone." I said as I poured myself a cup of coffee. They said their good mornings as Namjoon kissed my cheek. Jimin sat there in silence, thinking about his birthmark behind his ear and what it meant. Yoongi looked over at Jimin and said, "What's wrong Jimin?" Jimin sighed and said, "I have a birthmark shaped like a cross behind my ear, I don't know what it means, can it be something from my past?" "Yoongi nodded and said, "Yes it is." "I want to find out. I need to." Jimin said desperately. Yoongi got up from his chair and said, "Well, let's find out." Jimin got up as well and went to the middle of the living room and sat down. Yoongi gave him the huge metal bucket, and then put his hand on Jimin's forehead, Jimin started to relive his past.

Jimin was born into a religious family, his father was a priest who raised him with his wife. At a young age, His father died from unknown force, his mother was scared for her child's life and gave him to a priest to keep him safe. "Please Father, take my son and care for him and keep him safe." Jimin's mother said. The priest nodded and took Jimin. Within that hour, she was killed by the same unknown force. As the years went by, Jimin grew older. He realized that he wanted to be a priest just like his father, so he went to the priest's office and knocked on the door. "Come in." The priest said as Jimin opened the door and walked in. "Oh it's you Jimin. So happy to see you." The priest smiled as he paused of what he was working on. "Father, Can I talk to you about something." Jimin asked the priest. "Yes my son. Come, come sit." The priest said, Jimin sat down on the chair and begin to say, "Father I realized that I want to become a priest. Just like my own father." The priest smiled and said, "You know Jimin, I taught your father when he was around your age, I'm happy that you're following his footsteps and honoring him. I'll be happy to teach you the ways." Jimin smiled and said, "I didn't know that my father was a student of yours. I'll never disappoint him or you." The priest nodded and smiled. "I know you won't my son. The priest started to teach Jimin everything, about the history, prayers, powers. As the years went by, the church caught a blaze, everyone was inside. He tried with all his power to get them out, to get everyone out, but failed. When all the screams stopped he saw something flip the cross on top of the church upside down. It was a demon. Jimin looked the demon dead in the eyes as it laughed and vanished. Something snapped in him that day, he started to form exorcisms on people who were possessed or on houses with demons who haunted the people living within their homes. His work soon started to grow more dangerous as the demons started to get stronger Jimin went to the blacksmiths to get weapons, he saw a young man about seventeen making some weapons, The young man stopped what he was doing as he seen a priest walking up. "Is there anything I can help you with Father?" The young man asked. "I need you to make these weapons" Jimin said as he gave the young man a picture of the type of weapons he needed. The young man looked at the picture and said, "These weapons are rare, it will take a week to have them made. " Jimin smiled and nodded thanking him, and the young man started to work. "What is your name?" Jimin asked the young man. "It's Jungkook." Jimin nodded smiling at him and said, "My name is Father Jimin." Jungkook nodded and they shook hands. Years had gone by and something that day snapped in Jungkook, a darkness he couldn't explain. Jungkook eyes turned black as he grabbed the sword he was still in the mist of making, the handle hadn't been put on and the bottom of the sword was scorching hot from the flame it had been in. In that instance, Jungkook slaughtered his mother, father, and brother. When Jungkook snapped back to normal, he realized what had happened. He dropped the sword that had taken some flesh off his hand and given severe burns, dropping to the floor in shock, he looked at his murdered family. Screaming in tears, Jimin ran in to see Jungkook and his masicured family. Jungkook told the priest Jimin he didn't do it and that something took over his body. Jimin blessed Jungkook and wrapped up his hand, trembling, Jungkook looked down feeling ashamed of what he had done. Jimin then explained that he was on the hunt for the demon who killed his family and friends, that it could've been the same one who made him do those bad things. From then on, Jungkook promised to help Jimin kill that demon no matter the cost. As the years went by, Jimin and Jungkook finally found the demon. Jimin went to kill it and failed, dying soon after. Jungkook tried as well and succeeded at exterenating the demon. After that, he buried Jimin by his church that had burnt down in hopes his soul rest peacefully. He then collapsed from a sudden illness that soon ended Jungkook's fate a week later. Jimin was known as The Priest.
