Taehyung knew the fighting had started as soon as he turned the shower on. He had carefully climbed under the scalding water, biting the blood from his lip as he contained his hiss of pain. Everywhere the water hit his body felt like acid drops melting his skin. Every word he heard from the members outside was a knife being twisted into his already bleeding heart.

"What the fuck did you do to him?" he heard Hoseok growl, wondering which of the three his brother was going to war with.

"I didn't do shit," Namjoon had growled.

"But you didn't stop whatever it was?"

Taehyung couldn't help the small smile that came across his face as he heard his Seokjin-hyungie go to war on his behalf as well. Maybe if he were lucky...

No.

Kim Taehyung would stop that train of thought right now. Luck had not a damn thing to do with it, and ever since the moment he had been born, luck had not known his name.

Taehyung snorted, wincing at the pain and coughing blood into the drain as he heard his 'leader' making random excuses for what he had allowed....

No.

Taehyung had deserved all those things. Everything that had happened...every painful touch...it had been a gift to Taehyung to prove that he was still very much alive.

Kim Taehyung was still human...he was capable of feeling pain, and that was all the proof he needed to know that he was not the monster he had been made out to be.

'Pain...needs to be felt,' Taehyung thought to himself, trying to remember where the saying had come from.

"Weakness compels strength. Betrayal begets blood. This is the law of the Nine Clans."

That wasn't the line he was looking for, but it still applied to his situation.

Taehyung had been reborn from the ashes of his weakness and given new purpose. He would be strong enough to make sure his brothers made it out of here alive.
