JUNGKOOK'S POV

I was watching television and I can't believe that this is really occurring. I could not muster a strength to stand up. My body is shaking. Why?

Murders, homicide, bullying and many more, even those people who they call politician are not reliable. Why do humans do such thing?

"Disgusting right?" I heard a voice behind my back.

"Are they really happening or this what they call news is exaggerating it. I mean, there is no way a human can do that to their own kind right?" I still can't fathom the reality.

"Juvenile" his answer. Am I really?

"You won't survive in this world with that kind of mindset. I told you before, this world is not what you think it is. This world stinks" he added and sat beside with, reading a book.

"What is that?" I asked.

"A book" he answered in a matter of fact tone which ticks me off.

"Yeah, I know, but what are you reading?" I scan the book and realized that it is Y/N's book.

"The successor lends it to me" he answered not sparing a glance at me.

"Successor? Y/N?" he just nodded to clear up my confusion. I read the title. "Past, Present and future"

"what's the content?" I look at him waiting for an answer. He just glared at me.

"I'm still reading it. I will tell you everything after so stop bothering me" He ordered. His personality is somewhat similar to Y/N.

"For your information, I have found the red silk from your dream, its location is far from here so we need to go soon" he said and my eyes widen.

"I'm going to leave?"

"The original plan is to find the cure to your case. I told you that your setting is not permanent. Your physical form will vanish and you will turn back into being a missing soul again. Worst, you will be the target of the mediums. You are a good feed to their master after all" He explained and close the book.

"I'm finished reading it" he stands up and stretch. "That quick?" I was surprised. He was just reading it earlier though and the book looks a little bit thick.

"where is the successor?" he asked.

"To her room probably" I answered immediately and without a second he vanishes leaving a thin air.

I'm going to leave? I'm going to vanish?

"Jungkook" I heard Grandmas' voice from the kitchen. I immediately stand up and went to her.

"do you need something Grandma?" I asked in polite manner. "Yeah, it seems that we are out of tomato sauce and other condiments. Can I ask you to buy it at the nearest convenience store?"

Nearest convenience store?

"The one that is two blocks away?" I asked excited. This is the first time that I will go on an errand that far. Well I did before but I was always accompanied by Y/N. But now that I'm familiar with the places and direction, I can manage my elf now.

"I will go" my responded. "You seem eager to go out" She guessed. I just smiled sheepishly as a response.

Grandma gave me the money and handed me a bracelet. "what's this?" I asked while scanning the accessory on my wrist.

"It will hide your presence to any demonic spirits and medium who can manipulate you. Y/N made that for us" she also showed the same bracelet to me "but your case in thought she made one for you as well" she added.

"Grandma?"

She looks at me waiting for me to continue.

"What are you guys really? What's akahoshi clan?" I asked.

"She hasn't told you yet?" she looks surprised but then she cleared her throat and started explaining.

"Originally, we are just gate keepers for the souls. We open the gates when the souls are going to pass after being collected by the Jokers" she explained.

"You mean to pass? The boundary?" I asked and she nodded. "how did you know that?" she was surprised.

"Joker and I went there before" I answered and she nodded.

"And then the demon side was in crisis because they don't have souls to feed them or manipulate so they attacked the gate keepers, one disadvantage of us is that, we have a mortal body" Grandma explained.

She looks at her hand and I saw a scar. My eyes widen. She's smiling but you can clearly see that the emotion behind that scar are too heavy for that smile to masked. I am curious about what happened but I dare not to say anything.

"Grandma do you have the list of what I need to buy, I'm afraid I can't memorize them all" I said breaking the ice.

"sure, just wait a minute, I will make a list for you" and then she vanishes. I just waited for her in the kitchen.

"I should not have asked" I mumbled to myself. I'm really an idiot.

******

I went to the counter to pay for the groceries, the cashier greeted me with a frown. I wonder if he had a bad day. He gave me the change but there's an excess change so I return it to him. He just thanked me in a tired manner. I heard him sigh.

I was about to go out when I felt some strange presence, I turn around and saw nothing. It was the same like the presence of the medium that they are talking about but this presence is weaker.

I looked at the cashier and something was clinging on to his shoulder. A strange form. And he was whispering to the cashier. Suddenly the man pointed his pen towards his neck. He was about to stab his neck but a man appeared who knows where and stop him.

My eyes widen.

"That was close. And you little friend" the man spoke and glared at the strange being. A fire ingulfed it and it was crying in pain. I was watching in horror.

When the fire disappeared, the cashier lost his consciousness. The man spoke "One down, two more to go" he mumbled he turn to my direction and my eyes widen. Suddenly he appeared in front of me. I distance myself.

"Hi you can see me, right?" he said enthusiasm is written all over his face.

"Hey hyung, are you done yet? We still need to search for the other two or Jin hyung will kill us" another man appeared he look at us particularly me.

"Hyung what are you doing?"

He asked his companion. The one who is staring at me answered "Nothing let's go" he said and disappeared. His companion looks at me again then disappeared as well.

Who are they?
