There Was Nothing You Could Do

-𝐽𝑖𝑛-

"Why was Jungkook acting so weird?" Namjoon looks at me.

"Like I know." I roll my eyes at him, "any of us would have freaked out. Say it was you. Would you freak out."

"Well...if you say it like that...probably, but I'd make myself do it because I'd be saving his life."

"Exactly!"

"Guys? Since when did it cross the river..." I turn around when I hear Hoseok.

The creature opens its mouth and lets out a roar.

"Run!" Namjoon pushes me forward.

Jungkook puts Taehyung on his back and we all start running.

~~~~~~~

We break through the treeline and onto a paved road. 

There is a sign that reads, Seoul 1.6 km.

A truck is sitting on the side of the road.

"Get it!" Namjoon runs to the drivers eat, and everyone else hops into the back.

"Hyung, you can't drive." Taehyung points out the obvious.

"None of us can!" Namjoon gets out of the truck and slams the door.

"Yes we-"

"It's out of gas."

"You could have just led with that!" Jungkook complains.

There is another growl behind us as we climb out of the truck.

The shadow steps onto the road, and we start running away from it.

"I don't think we can outrun it." Jungkook pants, carrying Taehyung on his back.

"I'll run into the woods and distract it? I'll meet up with you when I lose you." I go to walk away but Namjoon grabs my wrist. 

"That's a horrible idea!"

"We can't fight that it! We left our only weapon back at the lake."

"Well can think of another way-"

"No. I'll be fine. You just need to worry about everyone else." I touch the hand Namjoon had around my wrist.

He lets go and the other retreat behind me.

"I better see your dumb ass again!" Yoongi shouts.

I laugh at him.

I wave my hands in the air, trying to get the thing's attention.

When it looks at me I bolt into the woods as the others run down the road.

The woods are dark and I trip over a tree root.

The creature stands over me.

I run my hands through the ground I found a long stick.

The creature lunges at me but I stab it with the stick.

It backs up an fall onto its back.

It turn in to ash and flies  away into the wind. 

I walk at the edge of the wood near the road.

"He's been gone a while..." Taehyung points out.

I crack a twig under my foot and Namjoon jumps.

 "I'm going to check that out." He walks closer to where I am.

I push hard on his chest and he stumbles back a bit.

From the look on his face it looks like he doesn't know what emotion to feel.

I laugh at him and walk to the rest of the group.

"Good news, they can be killed."

"You killed it?!" Jungkooksounds happy.

"No."

"What?"

"Technically it killed itself, I just needed to motivate it."

"Now you just sound like Namjoon-hyung."

"What's wrong with that?" Namjoon looks at Jungkook.

"N-Nothing...you just get really confusing sometimes."

I sigh and drop the subject.

"Hey Hobi! How you holdin' up?" I walk to Yoongi's side but get no response.

I go to tap Hoseok but Yoongi backs away from me, "He's sleeping."

Hoseok's head is sideways on Yoongi's back and he looks to be sleeping happily.

"Guys! Jungkook points to a building, "We made it!"

There's a sign that I can barely read, "비상(Emergency)"

We all sprint down the road toward the hospital.

Sorry I didn't update sooner I was caught in a bunch of schoolwork and had to take a few finals. I'll update again today to make up for it!

I hope you stay and read the next chapter! Have a lovely day <3
