Who We Are BOOK 1 ✔

Alright

"We're going to be alright"

- Judas and the Lion

_______________________________________

Back with the two Zeus heroes who were getting a lecture from a certain Ice hero.

"Do you know how many warnings you two are on? I don't even think Taehyung has the right to get warnings at this stage" Namjoon explained before huffing in annoyance.

The other two couldn't even look at the older hero, feeling ashamed for what they had done to you and knowing that they will get in a lot of trouble for this.

"...I didn't mean for it to get out of hand... I just wanted to feel what it would have been like if Y/N didn't reject me that day..." clicking his tongue knowingly, Namjoon saw that he had done it for his selfish desires.

However, he was intrigued on what went down when you rejected him, making the ice user feel less angry at the brunette.

"Did you not think if this would have been fair for Y/N? Would you have liked it if someone used their powers to deceive you? You must not respect her at all-" the sudden noise of a hand colliding with the picnic table filled the air, gaining attention from nearby customers who were eating their lunch.

"I respect her! Don't you dare think otherwise!... look, I regret what I did and I'll take full responsibility-"

"We will take full responsibility" Taehyung corrected the younger. Jungkook was shocked, wondering what on Zeus' earth was he doing.

"What are you doing?! The hero council won't let this go-"

"I don't care. It was my plan in the first place so technically it's my fault as well... I'm sure you would have done the same for me" after explaining to the other, Taehyung gave a small smile before returning to look at Namjoon, determined that Jungkook wasn't going to take all the blame.

The copy hero was speechless. Why is he throwing himself under the bus like this? Does he realise how much trouble he's going to be in? Why is he risking his freedom... for me?

"Am I hearing this correctly? Both of you are going to take responsibility?" Before Jungkook could speak, the blue haired hero had beat him to it.

"Yes"

"Well, it's going to be a long night for the two of you..." Namjoon stated while crossing his arms and watched as the two Zeus heroes looked away in defeat, realising that this would probably be the end of their hero career for a while.

"...Eros is in need of more helpers for tonight's lantern show afterall" not sure if they heard correctly, both Taehyung and Jungkook looked up at the Athena hero who was smirking right back at them.

"Wait, we're not going to the hero council HQ?"

"What are you saying?" Instead of immediately answering their questions, Namjoon looked at his wrist watch and saw that it was nearing 2pm.

"Your punishment is to help the Eros heroes out with the festival tonight and tomorrow morning. I will also be expecting you two to have apologised to Y/N and if she decides to not forgive you, then she will decide whether to report you two the council or not" standing up, the twenty four year old hero grabbed his iced americano before making his way towards one of the nearby Eros heroes to tell them about the extra help.

The two Zeus heroes looked at each other, wanting to see whether the other was as shocked as they were.

"Did we just-"

"I think so" smiling victoriously, they high fived each other before returning to drinking their slushies.

Thinking about how Taehyung could have been in serious trouble because of him, Jungkook turned to look at the older with a nervous expression.

"... I'm sorry about nearly getting you in to serious trouble. If I wasn't so selfish, we could have been taking it easy and not used our powers that way..." never seeing Jungkook so serious before, Taehyung gave him his full attention before continuing on.

"We did what we did and there's nothing we can do about that. I guess all we can do now is to learn not to do it again and become better heroes..."

"You're right..." sighing to himself, the brunette tried to think of a way to make you forgive him without making things worse.

"...I should be, but this is the seventh time I have shrunk Namjoon's shoes to make him think they're too small for him" confused, Jungkook looked at where the elemental user was to see him taking off one of his shoes to expect them angrily.

"I just bought these yesterday!" Namjoon yelled while the two boys, who were laughing uncontrollably, high fived once more.
