Met in an Apocalypse | BTS story

Taehyung and Jimin were walking in the woods when suddenly they heard gunshots. Jimin yelled and fell over, and Taehyung looked at him wide eyed. He was shot in the leg. Two guys walked over and one of them cocked the gun he was holding, now pointing it at Taehyung. "...What do you want just tell us" Taehyung said. "What do you have?" "What is it with people and stealing stuff from others?! Look for things yourself!" "I'd be careful if I were you" the other guy pointed his gun at Jimin. Taehyung looked at Jimin who was groaning in pain and then he bit his lip. "We don't have anything" Taehyung said, truthfully. "Really?" Jimin suddenly grabbed Taehyung's wrist catching his attention. "Go" he mouthed. Taehyung shook his head but Jimin pushed his arm away closing his eyes. "Jimin..." "Well?" the guy walked closer to Taehyung. Taehyung knew he wasn't getting this out of his own. He needed help. So, he decided to do what Jimin told him to do. Go. He ran away and he heard a gunshot, and the bullet scratched the side of his arm, but, he managed to get away. He ran and ran as far as he could, then he couldn't hold it in anymore. He fell to his knees on the ground sobbing, because of the pain of his arm, because he left Jimin, and that he might end up dead. "Are you ok?" He looked up and saw someone looking at him worried. The guy suddenly widened his eyes as he looked at Taehyung's arm. "What happened?!" "S... someone took my friend..." Taehyung sobbed. "...Well come on, I'm sure we can work something out." He extended his arm out and Taehyung took it standing up. "What's your name? I'm Namjoon." "...Taehyung." "Ok, let's go, come on." Taehyung followed Namjoon until they reached his half-finished house. "Y... you made this yourself?" "Pretty much, yeah. Now." He helped Taehyung sit down then rolled up his sleeve looking at his wound. Namjoon sighed and asked, "Does it hurt?" Taehyung nodded. "Hmm I can't treat it properly until-" "Namjoon!" Namjoon turned around and saw Jin. He was holding a tiny medical bag, a gun, and a bottle of water. "Whoa what timing." Jin blinked confused then asked, "Who's that?" "Taehyung." He looked at Taehyung then said, "That's Jin." He looked back at Jin and said, "Give me that bag." Jin gave him the bag and Namjoon treated Taehyung's wound, then covered it up. Meanwhile, Jin sat down and watched the two. "Ok, Taehyung, do you know which direction they went in?" Namjoon asked as he finished up. "No..." Namjoon sighed and said, "I'll go back and check to see if I can find anything. Jin, can you stay here with him?" "Yeah ok... will you be ok by yourself?" "Yeah." Jin handed Namjoon the gun then he set off, leaving Jin alone with Taehyung. Jin was curious as to what was going on but he decided to not to ask as Taehyung looked down. Taehyung didn't say anything either. He wad too worried about Jimin.

Namjoon went to the place he found Taehyung and went to the direction he was running from. He walked for a couple of minutes before spotting something on the ground. Blood. He leaned down and saw that the blood was trailing off to the north-east direction. He knew what way they went, so, he went back to tell Jin and Taehyung.

Meanwhile, Taehyung was getting more and more tired. He was exhausted and he couldn't keep his eyes open. Jin must have noticed so he sat down next to Taehyung and gently moved his head to rest on his own shoulder. Taehyung finally closed his eyes properly and fell asleep. A couple of minutes later Namjoon came back and Jin put his finger over his lips to tell Namjoon to be quiet. Namjoon looked at Taehyung who was asleep then nodded. Namjoon sat down next to Jin and they whispered to have a conversation. "I found Taehyung crying. He ran away from someone. I asked him and he said that someone took his friend. And, I know which direction they went. It seems like he was bleeding badly too." Namjoon sighed and looked at Taehyung. "Poor guy..." Taehyung had something in his bangs so Jin took it out but then widened his eyes after feeling his forehead. "Oh my god he's burning up." He looked at Namjoon expecting him to say something. Namjoon looked at Jin then sighed. "Do I have to do everything?" "You're the one with an IQ of 148." "BRO anyone can figure out to give him sum medicine." "Wait we have medicine?" "BRUH" "SHH you'll wake Taehyung up-" Taehyung groaned and dug his face into Jin's shoulder. Jin gave Namjoon a WTF look and muttered, "IQ of 148..." Namjoon scoffed then said, "Wake him up and give him some medicine, then let him take a rest." "What about his friend?" "He's sick right now. We're going to have to go by ourselves." "And leave him here alone?" "Well what else can we do?" Jin sighed realising that Namjoon was right. He gently woke Taehyung up and Taehyung groaned and asked, "What is it?" "You're burning up you need to take some medicine." "I'm... huh?" He opened his eyes then realised that he was feeling cold. "Oh god I'm so cold..." He was shaking trying to get himself warm. Namjoon quickly grabbed some medicine from the medical bag and gave it to Taehyung with a bottle of water. Taehyung gulped it down then looked down still shaking. Namjoon sighed and took off his hoodie that was over his shirt and put it on top of Taehyung after laying him down. "We're gonna go find your friend... what's his name?" "J... Jimin... but you're going by yourself?" he stuttered out still shaking from the cold. "Me and Jin are gonna go, you have a fever. Try to get some rest, ok?" Taehyung nodded and closed his eyes trying to fall asleep. Jin and Namjoon left but Taehyung couldn't fall asleep. He was cold. He was worried. He wanted to go with them but he couldn't because he was sick.
