Taehyung's eyes scan the crowd without mercy, heart pouding and eyes teary as they bore into each and every person surrounding him. He feels his heart beat increasing, a twitch in his back where the scars were, and let's out a long and slow breath. Whispers are passed around, people frowning at his sudden behaviour and taking steps back as all eyes were on him, and not the other couples dancing gracefully around him like a sort of tornado, spiraling him into a panic.
Behind him, Hoseok had slinked back into the crowd, eyes more focused than Taehyung's as he moves around where the bouncers were, and had now disappeared. His eyes wandered over to Taehyung, who had his fists clenched into white balls, and was as still as a statue as he stood in the center of the dancefloor.
"Hoseok!" A voice snaps him out of his single-minded focus, eyes jumping to meet the bright ones in front of him. Jungkook let's his lips curl slightly in the corners, before his small smile evaporates as Hoseok grabs his arm and drags him over to an empty corner.
"We shouldn't have come here." Hoseok mutters, eyes down at the floor as he keeps hold of Jungkook, before he looks up suddenly and frowns. "Yoongi. Has he found the guy we are looking for yet?" He continues, and Jungkook slowly shakes his head, a faint look of fear on his features.
"Hyung, what's wrong? Weren't you supposed to be keeping an eye on Taehyung and Y/N?" Jungkook says slowly, picking up on the way Hoseok's usually bright eyes darken significantly.
"We have to regroup first. It's not safe to tell you, yet. Can you get Taehyung and bring him to the fountain?" Hoseok mumbles quietly, finally releasing his grip on Jungkook's arm as his eyes wander over to the grand fountain on the opposite side of the room. Jungkook simply nods, before he slips around Hoseok and heads straight for the dancefloor, where Taehyung was still stood.
"Taehyung!" Jungkook calls out, pushing through the crowd as he sees the older in the center, looking around in a panic. His breath was short, blood running quickly and adrenaline rushing as his eyes scan every inch of the building. "Hyung!" Jungkook calls again, hand gripping Taehyung's arm as he finally reaches him.
"Get off!" Taehyung yells suddenly, fist swinging for Jungkook as he pulls out of his grip. Jungkook dodges quickly, holding his breath as he manages to jab Taehyung's side with the side of his hand.
"Tae, stop! It's me!" Jungkook exclaims as a gasp circles them, people stepping back to avoid the fight as Taehyung doubles over, eyes creased up. Jungkook huffs deeply, watching as Taehyung begins to sob, crouching down slowly on the spot. "Hyung, what's happened?" He asks slowly, eyes searching the older face.
"They got her, Kook. I don't know how, but she's gone, and she's all they wanted." Taehyung's voice is small, his watery eyes locking with Jungkook's as he stays crouched. Jungkook's heart stops momentarily, before he grabs Taehyung's arm and forces him to stand.
"You can't get worked up, Taehyung. Y/N isn't here to save you from yourself, this time." Jungkook says simply as he pulls the older to his feet, before he begins to drag him over to the fountain, where the others were all waiting. Taehyung wipes his face roughly, tugging his arm from Jungkook's grip as he walks quickly by his side, eyes still scanning. "Guys-"
"We've found him, but there's bodyguards all around him. It'll be impossible to get this done. We have to leave." Yoongi interrupts as soon as the two join, and Jungkook sucks in a deep breath as he looks towards Taehyung, who had frozen up.
"We can't leave." He says simply, voice quiet as he slowly looks up to Yoongi, who frowns instantly.
"Where's-"
"They got her." Hoseok grimaces, peering around the group as he sees the others shocked expressions, while Taehyung and Jungkook looked mournfully at the ground. Yoongi gulps, eyes wide as he scans the room quickly, before he looks at Taehyung.
"You were supposed to keep her safe." Yoongi says coldly, pointing a finger at Taehyung, who forced his eyes closed and clenched his fists.
"Yoongi, don't. He's still fragile, and isn't fully in control of his other side." Jimin says quickly, holding a hand out to Yoongi, who smacks it away and takes a step closer to Taehyung, who was taking deep breaths.
"No. This is his fault. If he had of kept hold of her, we wouldn't be in this mess." Yoongi continues, hand stretching out to shove Taehyung, but he smacks it away.
"Stop. Please." Taehyung says quietly, and Namjoon lays a hand on Yoongi's shoulder. He sighs deeply and takes a step back, while Taehyung slowly opens his eyes and looks down at the floor.
"Now is not the time. We have to find Y/N and get-" A loud explosion cuts Namjoon off, and the group all turn to see a cloud of flames evaporating, to reveal you being dragged into one of the upstairs rooms.
"Y/N!" Taehyung screams, instantly sprinting towards the stairs, before he's closely followed by the rest of the group. You scream as you regain consciousness, flailing your arms in an attempt to use your magic again, before you spot Taehyung's red shirt from the corner of your eye.
"Tae!" You yell, pulling in the hitman's arms as he tries to drag you into the room. He grunts and growls, struggling to keep a hold of you, before you stop on his foot with your heel and he finally let's go.
"Don't fucking touch her!" Jimin yells as you sprint towards Taehyung, the hitman close behind you as he limps from your injury. As you run straight into Taehyung's chest, he suddenly thrusts out a hand towards the hitman and he freezes, unable to move.
"You're safe." Taehyung mumbles as he wraps both arms around you, before someone clears their throat. Someone that wasn't part of your group.
"Let go of her, and no one gets hurt." Another hitman says slowly, gun pointed in the back of Jungkook's head, while six others all have gun trained on one of the others.
