Chapter 35

Jin's POV

I stared at the gem embedded on my ring, feeling a little bit guilty that I wore it.

Wow, the gem's shattered. Just great.

A tense, thick silence surrounded the room. Everyone seem to display the same reaction I have-pure shock and mystification. Everyone in the room are either tapping their foots, staring into an empty space, or fiddling with their fingers. Each second, anxiousness fills our guts. Once Taehyung's wounds are treated, the scorching hot tea shall be spilled.

We're thirsty for answers, scared that maybe, just maybe, one of those extremely powerful creatures raids this house and completely erases us out of existence. You could say that we're a little paranoid now, especially because they are capable of severely wounding us in one second. Just look at Taehyung, his leg and arm are sporting three, enormous, deep claw marks. We don't know who, or what, helped us out there, but we're thankful anyways. Must've been a fellow powerful being.

Finally, after a few minutes, his arm and leg are wrapped in bandages. I cleared my throat, sending a hidden message for one of them to start. Thankfully, Lisa was able to decipher it.

"So... I know, everyone is overwhelmed about this whole thing, even I am during the first time I encountered them. But hey, listen up, I can assure you that they won't be able to kill us, our guardians wouldn't permit it," Lisa took a deep breath before continuing, "Let me explain what they are first and where they come from. I suggest you guys to... keep your attention on me."

20 minutes later... (Timecheck: 11:20 p.m.)

That, was the biggest plot we've ever heard... she's making it up, right? Stupid Jin, you've witnessed it yourself.

"H-how come none of us is dead? I-I mean, y-you already told us that this feud has been going on for like... 3 months now," Joy was the first one to ask. Well, she's right though. None of us is dead, all of us are alive.

"That's for them to explain," Jennie pointed at us, as if telling us that we kno-wait, we know something about this?

"Why are you pointing at us?" Yoongi cocked one eyebrow, questioning Jennie's action. Jennie seemed bewildered.

"Guys... you should explain. We already did our parts, and now it's your turn," Jisoo calmly intervened. She probably sensed an incoming heated argument. The thing is, why do they want us to explain when we're just waiting for answers too?

"Uh... ahahahah, that's a funny joke guys... you're joking, right?" Jimin awkwardly laughed before turning serious.

"Guys, please. We've already helped you out," Lisa argued.

Jungkook, who seems to be in a deep thought, sighed as loud as he could, cutting everyone off. I think I already know what's going on his mind.

"We lost our memories, Lis. Which means, no explanation would come out of us."

I knew it.

All 7 of them figuratively have their jaws attached to the ground. We all know it's impossible to actually drop your jaw.

"You... when?" Wendy questioned.

"We honestly don't know. Now, please continue. And no, we never got into an accident," I answered. C'mon, it's already 11:25 for goodness' sake. I shall get the rest that I need.

A sigh, coming from Jisoo, interrupted the silence.

"Let's continue, I'm sure everyone is just as tired as I am."

fastforward (timecheck: 11:45)

"You're saying that... they have powers?" Chae clarified, earning a nod from Jisoo.
