Into the Shadows

Goodbye

"What do you mean you are leaving?" Amber cried into the phone. There was a moment of silence on the other end and then some whispers.

"Y/N is my heart, without her I am lost. She is leaving and I am going with her." Yoongi sighed. Amber was so angry she didn't want to hear another word. She threw her phone at the wall shattering it.

"Shit..." she hissed walking over to pick it up.

"Amber?" Perseus questioned cautiously. She turned to look at him. When had he gotten so big? His hair was in a hard part now. His dark rimmed glasses falling to the tip of his nose like always. His once chubby cheeks were now slimmer. Where did that little boy go?

"Hey bubba."

"You okay?" He seemed a bit nervous when he stepped closer to her. She yanked him into a bear hug making him giggle.

"I'm fine. Don't worry... everything is going to be fine." She was more so reassuring herself not so much him.
Perseus pulled away to go get some juice then disappeared into the living room. Amber sat down at the table only to get up when she heard the doorbell.

It was Hoseok in an oversized green sweater and black skinny jeans. His now blonde hair ruffled messily.

"Hey girl." He beamed down at her.

"Hey Hobi."

"Don't be mad at Yoongs... you know he would stay if it wasn't for Y/N. He loves her and would do anything for her. Just like you would for Namjoon."

Amber sighed. It wasn't that she was mad that he would leave with Y/N. It was the fact that no matter the time of day she could call him and he would come over instantly. He was the person she had begun to rely on. 

"I know."

Hoseok patted her on the shoulder. Then walked passed her into the kitchen to grab a cup of coffee.

"Are you ready for tomorrow?" Hoseok asked with an undertone she couldn't quite place. She watched as he stirred his creamer into the coffee. His hands shook a little.

That's when she remembered what he had agreed to in order to help Namjoon and Calliope. The guilt hit hard like a sledgehammer to her gut. How could she let him go through something like that again? What would Namjoon think?

Why did they have to use Jin in the first place? She wondered still watching Hoseok move to sit down in front of her. He tilted his head and smiled.

"We still have each other shorty." He winked making her laugh. He was such a sweetheart. Hoseok's face fell remembering something. He looked up at Amber then said.

"Jin will be here in a few hours."

Amber just nodded taking his hands into hers.

Namjoon

3:09 AM

My chest was on fire. It literally felt like he was trying to burn a hole through me with his disgusting gnarled claws. He twisted his claws around in my chest until he ripped out my heart smiling big.

"You won't be needing this anymore." He laughed.

I coughed up blood mixed with black ickor. The gaping hole in my chest told me I was still alive and yet partially closer to death.

" that's not mine anyway." I informed with as much confidence as I could muster. Then I spat at him.

Of course that was stupid. Because he tore into me from all angles after that. The pain was so great I blacked out and everything went cold.
