3:45 AM
Yoongi and Y/N rushed into the house to find Amber holding Calliope rocking her back and forth. Calliope was crying while Amber attempted to calm her down. Amber looked up at the two staring at her with confused faces one quickly turning into a scowl.
"What's going on?" Y/N asked coming over to sit on the floor next to Amber and Calliope. Calliope tucked her head into Amber's shoulder still crying. Yoongi stood with his arms folded looking around for Namjoon.
"Where's Namjoon?" He asked moving towards the stairs looking up. A cold chill ran down his spine as he went up. He found Namjoon sitting in a chair near the window. His face was slack with remainders of tears on his cheeks. Standing in front of him he could see the toll everything had taken on him. His cheeks were sunken in he had dark circles under his eyes and he just seemed empty. Like he wasn't even Namjoon anymore just an empty husk with nobody home.
"Joon?" he patted him on the arm. Namjoon jerked in response but nothing else.
Y/N
"What happened Amber?"
"She can see whatever is hurting Namjoon..." Amber answered hugging Calliope a little tighter.
"What happened on the phone with Yoongi?"
"She pointed at it... Namjoon had been awake then. But, as soon as she pointed Namjoon went into a seizure... I panicked."
Y/N hugged them both. Her heart hurt for them. No one should have to go through what they are going through. She wanted to help them it's just she wasn't sure how much more she could take herself. Everything that's happened this year all the chaos... It was too much. Yoongi wanted to be here for Namjoon which she understood that. She was doing her best to stay positive and be supportive of their friends. She just wished they weren't the only ones helping.
"What do you mean?"
Amber looked at her like she was stupid. Like she was supposed to know that some supernatural entity has taken over Namjoon.
"Joonie's friend is mean..." Whispered Calliope she was still clinging to Amber but looking up at Y/N with worried eyes.
"Joonie's friend?" Y/N felt a sense of unease pour through her as she watched the little girl nod.
"Yes..."
"Oh... What does he want? Did he tell you?"
"He wants Joonie's soul and to be my friend." Amber gasped at Calliope's response clutching the girl tighter. Which seemed almost impossible because she already had a firm hold on her. Maybe she thought the tighter she held her the safer she would be.
"Right..." Y/N sighed looking up the stairs at Yoongi standing at the top of them. His face was ashen descending the stairs he grabbed Y/N hugging her tight whispering into her ear.
"What?"
He just nodded then crouched down in front of Amber and Calliope who were still on the floor.
"Namjoon needs and exorcism or something of that nature... Hobi knows a guy who can help... He may take some convincing to talk to said person though. Given their history and all."
Amber laughed hysterically she didn't want to believe Namjoon was possessed nor did she want to believe that the thing was coming after Calliope now too. Thank God Perseus was over at his friend Mark's house. Calliope moved away to sit with Y/N talking happily about the new baby doll she had gotten a day or so ago. Which left Amber and Yoongi to talk about what needed to be done.
In the kitchen Amber poured them each a cup of coffee then collapsed into one of the chairs. She was exhausted both mentally and physically. But she was holding true to the ones she loved most in this world. Yoongi sipped his coffee thinking to himself for a while before taking out his phone to call Hobi.
"He-hello.. tee hee... Stawp! Oh... no seriously stop." Hobi said distracted by Jimin, Yoongi assumed he cleared his throat making the other side of the line go silent for a second.
"Hi Yoongs."
"Hey... I need a favor."
"stop it... I will spank you; you keep that up." Yoongi was getting frustrated with his friends inability to stay focused. He slammed his phone on the table several times until he heard Hoseok scream.
"STOP OKAY!!! I HEAR YOU WHAT DO YOU WANT?!!! SHESUS! ANGER ISSUES!"
"I need you to talk to Jin..." The other line went deathly silent and then a bunch of angry whispers back and forth. Hobi cleared his throat saying.
"Fuck you." Then hung up. Yoongi sighed heavily there was no way he could get ahold of the guy himself, and he felt that Jin would only do it if Hobi asked him to. There had to be some way to convince him to talk to him. Screwing up his face in thought he looked over at Amber who was watching him with a contemplative look. His phone rang instantly he answered hoping it was Hobi, it was Jimin.
"Jin is a detective in our precinct I can talk to him for you."
"You think he'll do it?"
"Yea... Hobi's not the only one who likes my sweet ass..." Yoongi could hear Hobi snickering in the background followed by a loud smack.
"You guys disgust me." He said before hanging up.
"Jimin is going to help." Yoongi smiled at Amber. Her face lit up it was the first sign that things were going to get better. Hopefully they would get better her little family needed it to. Yoongi and Y/N stayed for dinner coming up with a plan to hopefully save Namjoon.
Namjoon
03:16 AM Wednesday
It's dark in here... I'm not sure if I'm awake or retracted deep within my mind. Something was moving about nearby. Turning to see what was moving around I saw her. Her soft face resting in the moonlight I didn't notice before. The steady rise and fall of her chest with her mouth slightly open. She was so beautiful, I groaned trying to stand up to go be near her. Every part of me screamed out in pain but I had to hold her while I was lucid enough. Falling to the bed hard I woke her with a start. She grabbed ahold of my arms with eyes wide open looking at me panicked.
"Namjoon" She whispered her eyes darting back and forth, I clung to her pulling her into my arms crying. Amber wrapped her arms around me nuzzling into my chest. I needed this... this was what would always bring me back from the brink. Lifting her chin, I brought her lips to mine kissing her softly.
"Stay with me..." Amber whimpered against my lips. I wished I could, but he was already lurking in the corner. His sickening yellow eyes glaring at me ready to take me back into the shadows of my mind.
"Time to play Namjoon..." He hissed; I closed my eyes hoping for just a few more seconds with her. Alas I was lost in the darkness again, His putrid body looming over me ready to tear through my flesh. I was gone.
I am sorry... I could hear her crying out for me and yet I was lost every part of me... Lost.
