Eclipse

》6《

Taehyung widened his eyes to that. A war? With who? How? Did they have enough time for preparation? And why was this so sudden?

Jimin also seemed to have these same thoughts, for he too was wide eyed and pale. Dusk was smiling fondly and gently at Jimin while she held Jimin's red cheek. Dawn was furious. Her eyes only showed the rage.

"A.....A war?!" Jimin gasped, his eyes only widening as his voice quivered. Dusk kept the same on her face and gently removed her palm.

"Don't fret, darling. The person behind it had set the date on the night of the eclipse." Dusk softly responded. Dawn frowned even further. Nobody dare spoke. Interrupting them was a beg for punishment.

"You guys have 7 months before the eclipse happens. The war happens on that exact day. We're going to be sending your troops here by tomorrow. They will live in the dorms we have assigned. I want you 8 to train them like your life depends on it! Do I make myself clear!?" Dawn shouted. Namjoon wanted nothing more than to ridicule her for her childish outburst, but, there was someone far scarier in the room other than the team member he truly feared. And that someone was Dusk.

"Yes ma'am!" Team Day announced. Team Night was hesitant to answer. Very. Dawn glared at them, her pale skin turned red from fury. She wanted them to answer. To bow down and treat her as a leader. But they wouldn't. Their arrogance made her want to spit.

"Team-" Dusk interrupted her by raising her hand softly. Dawn widened her eyed, eyebrows still in the form of a frown and her mouth slightly parted from shock.

Dusk looked straight into the eyes of her fellow Gems. They were calm about the situation despite the knowlege of wars. She smiled.

"Fallout and rest. You boys have a big day tomorrow and bigger to come. And boys, please be kind enough to get up fresh and early tomorrow? Appearance is key to first impressions." Dusk chuckled, her soothing deep yet feminine voice radiated the room. She was quick to take the tension off the situation, and iluminate the faces of the boys. Of course, Team Night bowed deeply to her kind command then stood straight. All in sync.

Dawn was exasperated. The audacity that these boys had made her sick. How dare they bow to Dusk but not to the elder sister by the name of Dawn?!

She visibly grew uglier by the immense frown on her face, making her beautiful and smooth face go crinkled and cringed.

Dawn pressed her plump lips onto the boy's foreheads softly to show she truly cared for them as children. They all gave her a hug in response. Team Day didn't have that closeness in their relationships. It wasn't like that for Jewels.

"Sleep well. We will see you boys tomorrow." Dusk beamed. And with that, Dusk pulled Dawn out of the house with her. Strangely on their way out, both Dusk and Taehyung had intense eye contact but quickly looked away. Taehyung then watched as the ladies left the house and closed the door behind them. Jin quickly locked the door and sighed. Jimin still had that same stinging red mark on her cheek.

"I think that this discussion was nothing more than a waste of time. Jimin, from now on, you have to learn how to control your power. I don't care how you do it, I don't want to see it again. You hear?" Jin barked. Jimin cowered in fear and meekly agreed. Namjoon scoffed. Walking up the stairs, making sure to nudge Jin's broud shoulder harshly on the way there.

"Wow, princess. Didn't think you could be this fiesty. I feel bad for the one you share in bed." He smirked. The elder's face immediately grew a bright red and replied with a scoff. Namjoon was already upstairs when Jin looked back up in disgust.

"Rude." He mumbled. Hoseok sat arrogantly on the couch. Jungkook rolled his eyes, seeing that Hoseok seemed to be the supposed hot shot of their group. Hoseok caught sight of the obvious glare from the youngest member and smiled with a hint of annoyance.
