Found Again (Rewriting)

Chapter 2

(2094)

Three years passed. Two more boys disappeared within the first year, the same way that Jimin had disappeared. Each boy had been to the black room a couple of times. Taehyung had closed himself off from the others, rarely talking anymore, his bright personality disappeared with his best friend.

Subject 13. Subject 11. Subject 15. Jimin. Jeongin. Felix. All disappeared without a trace.

Jungkook, now eleven, was wrestling Seungmin, Subject 12, who was twelve years old, on the concrete floor of the common room. Jungkook, despite being the youngest, was already bigger than most thirteen-year-olds. He had a huge growth spurt over the last year and now was almost the biggest in the group.

Jungkook lifted Seungmin above his shoulder and slammed him to the ground, the sound of a crack echoed through the room.

"Seungminnie hyung!" Jungkook crouched down to the boy who held his left shoulder, a grimace evident on his face.

Jin ran over to the hurt boy and carefully placed his hands on his shoulder. His hands glowed a light blue as his eyes clenched together and his forehead gradually glistened with sweat.

The glowing faded and Jin slumped away from the boys, his breathing labored.

"Hyung! What was that?!" Hobi exclaimed, his eyes lit with excitement and curiosity as he stared at the exhausted teenager, his butt on the edge of the couch cushion.

"I don't know...I just had a gut feeling to put my hands on his shoulder," Jin whispered.

"Hyung! You have powers, too!" Hoseok screamed, jumping off the couch and raising his arms above his head and spinning in a circle. The exuberant emotions radiated off of him, triggering the other boys to feel happy and excited.

"We expect you all to have powers," a gruff voice called out from the doorway. Their heads whipped around to find the man with the white lab coat leaning against the doorframe. Hoseok had frozen with his hands still in the air.

"We wanted to wait until you all were older to start testing you, but I guess some of your powers deemed otherwise," he spoke as he walked to the middle of the room.

"Since most of your powers have surfaced, we must train you to control them. This will not be easy for any of you..." his eyes trailed to each of the boys that were placed variously around the room, "...you will face many difficulties, but with my help, you will overcome those difficulties and stand stronger than you ever have before," his eyes locked onto Taehyung's.

"You have already proven strong enough to contain your powers, unlike some of the subjects we had to terminate in the past..." his voice trailed off as Taehyung jolted up, his eyes filled with hatred.

"Terminate? Terminate?! You killed them?! You killed my Jiminie?!" Tae screamed, his spit flung through the tension-filled air and everyone held their breath as they waited for what the two males would do.

A black, smokey mist swept around the fuming boy, blocking him from their view. No one moved as the mist gracefully glided down his body, resting at his hands. His once light gray uniform was now black, as were his eyes. The only white on his body was his skin, but even that was a pale gray, as if he were dead.

His chest heaved up and down as his black eyes glared at the scientist, as if he was looking into his soul. The stench of fear and anger suffocated the room.

"TaeTae?" Hobi carefully asked, his voice barely above a whisper, as if a loud noise would set off the boy who literally looked like he would explode any second.

The dark boy stayed frozen, not a single muscle moved, not even a blink. Hoseok carefully walked up to the boy and softly placed his arms around the paralyzed boy.
