"Cap, em coming in," Jungkook announced and then walked into Jimin's quarters to see him staring at his desk. "Cap? Are you okay?"

"No, I am not, Kook... Shownu challenged me to a duel, alone." Jungkook frowned and made his way to sit in front of his friend.

"Wha- Why would he do that? I thought we were at peace."

"So did I. I guess he's still mad over what happened, but I thought we handled that." Jimin chuckled and pushed his hair back with his hand.

"You did piss him off. I mean you stole his ship one time and killed his dog." Jimin slams his hands against his desk and stands up.

"I didn't know he was there! And- And I bought him a new one." The younger sighs while rolling his eyes.

"Should I tell Tae to tell Yoongi?" Jimin shook his head.

"Keep this quiet. The duel is in a couple of days in the Dark Lands," Jungkook's eyes widened.

"J-Jimin," he nervously chuckles, "you do know what is in the D-Dark Lands, r-right?"

"Of course I do. But you know what a duel is, so why not do it in the most dangerous place in the world?" Jungkook takes a shaky hand through his hair.

"Why are you acting like this is something normal for you?" The snake hisses, his foot kicking the wooden deck.

"I have been in a lot of near-death experiences, even before Yoongi came, I was always ready to walk the plank." Jungkook rolls his eyes when Jimin smiles at him. "Remember, don't tell anyone about this, especially Taehyung and Yoongi." The snake nodded and then left Jimin alone.

"Yoongi, what has been going on with your face?" Chris asked, waving his hand over the smiling fool's face that had been scaring him the whole day.

"Chris, that is not nice, my cub is happy! Isn't that right, Yoongi?" Lisa grins, shimming her shoulders.

"Yeah."

"Why?"

"Chris! Why are you acting like this? He found someone and is now happy!" The king frowns and turns back to his son with a stern expression.

"Who is this... person?" Yoongi presses his lip together in a thin line.

"Someone."

"Is it Jimin?" The prince's eyes slightly widened.

"Maybe." Lisa stood up and engulfs her cub in a big hug, finally happy that he said it until Chris drops his fork onto his plate.

"Lisa, Yoongi, no. Jimin is a pirate, a pirate who has stabbed his tiny, grubby fingers into the heart of our trading routes to other kingdoms. Oh, and not to mention had stolen and killed people. He is not a good person, son." Yoongi growls and slams his hands against the table, severing it in half. The family watches as their plates gradually slide into the center and mix on the floor along with the broken glass.

"HOW WOULD YOU KNOW WHAT HE IS LIKE?" Yoongi snaps after the noise dies down. "Jimin is one of the nicest, funniest, boldest, most courageous person I know. You only know him from his past, you don't know him now." The prince glares at his dad before stomping to his room with Aisha sneakily following behind.

"Chris, what have you done?" Lisa turns to him with a snarl. "I know you, you wouldn't have acted like such a dick unless you did something." Chris looks down and twirls his thumbs on his lap.

"I might've sent a letter to Jimin saying Shownu wants to challenge him, and I did the same thing to Shownu." The queen steps back.

"Chr-".
