BTS Kidnapped

Part Fifty-Four

Bangtan Sonyeondan froze, their fearful eyes turning to see the monster now standing before them, their brother almost unrecognizable at his side.

"Oh, dear," Sven said slowly, his eyes taking in the carnage before him. "Are my boys fighting?"

"Jimin," Jungkook breathed without thought, taking a step towards the man before being held back by Taehyung.

"Jimin," Namjoon repeated, his voice a little firmer than his brother's.

Namjoon looked Jimin over, saw the blinding changes in the man, and it made him see red. Without thought he rushed up to Jimin, staring at him once more before pulling the younger man into a tight hug.

"Jimin-ah..." he breathed, the fight from moments before forgotten, pure joy in holding his brother once again replacing the stress that had permeated the room.

For a few seconds Jimin stiffened as if he would reject his leader's embrace as he knew he should. But then he faltered, the feeling of him taking over his senses. Jimin almost wrapped his arms around his older brother, would have in fact, had it not been for Mathan barging in and stopping at the sight before him, breaking the moment.

Mathan watched with a growing sense of horror as Jin, then Hoseok stepped up and wrapped arms around the two.

Taehyung stayed like a statue where he was, Yoongi's eyes burning into him as he refused to meet the older man's gaze. Taehyung's eyes were burning into the others as he tried to silently warn his brothers of the damage they were about to cause if they continued this. He even reached out to grab Jungkook as he too approached Jimin.

Taehyung gasped in shock and fear. He reached for Jungkook, his arm rising and falling belatedly as the man made his way to Jimin. Taehyung wanted to stop Jungkook, knowing that now was not the time for a display of emotion - for any weakness at all - but understanding that Jungkook needed this more than words could say. The others moved, shifted to create space so that Jungkook had access to the man his heart cried for. Jungkook placed one hand on Jimin's cheek, wrapping the other around Jimin's head, pulling him in for a deep kiss.

Through his overwhelming fear, Taehyung felt relief. His friend was alive. Still seemingly whole. For now. And with that knowledge, Taehyung could breathe once more. Jimin was here. And now that Jungkook had seen it, seen him, maybe he could truly begin to heal.

It was the sound of clapping that drew the guys from their shared embrace to stare at Sven still standing in the doorway.

Not thinking, and giving into the blind rage that consumed him once more, Namjoon aggressively pushed Jimin and Jungkook behind him and snarled, "YOU WILL NEVER FUCKING TOUCH MY BROTHER AGAIN!"

Sven simply leaned against the door jamb and spoke.

"You are holding something that belongs to me, Kim Namjoon-ssi. This one time I am willing to be lenient. I will allow this transgression to pass unpunished if you simply step aside and let Jimin return to where he belongs."

Jimin started to struggle in Jungkook's embrace as he begged.

"Please! Please let me go! You...you don't understand!"

Hoseok added his arms to Jungkook's, caging Jimin in. Staring back coldly at Sven, Namjoon crossed his arms over his chest.

"Jimin stays with us," He growled. "He stays with us, and you stay away from him, motherfucker!"

"Is that your final answer, Kim Namjoon-ssi?" Sven calmly asked.

"Please, hyung! You don't...you don't know! Please!" Jimin cried out to Namjoon.
