Magic Island 

They were given a quick tour of the mesmerizing place, the gardens, the large hall, and the houses.

"This place is amazing," Taehyun breathed. Namjoon beamed proudly, "Isn't it? We put in a lot of energy and effort into making it safe, including the magic island."

"It's like paradise," Jisu said, looking around with wonder in her eyes. Jungkook grinned, "That's what Namjoon wanted. It's named after that Roman God...uh...Pot?" Namjoon wrinkled his nose, "Greek God, and his name is Pan, lord of the wild. Arcadia is the name of his home. It's a sort of paradise, where wildlife can be safe."

"All gifted can come here?" Kai asked.

Taehyung smiled, "All. Small gifts, big gifts, everything, anyone. Just no humans. We don't like them too much."

"How did you find us? You know, the notebook and stuff," Taehyun asked. Yoongi's eyes twinkled, "My gift is illusion manipulation, and Jeongguk has the gift of prophecy. We just compiled the little rhyme and I sent a little illusion after Taehyun. You guys are pretty powerful, and difficult to track, we decided it would save us some effort if we made one of you find the others."

Taehyun looked like he was going to punch the man.

Yoongi's expression soured, "But there's a lot of gifted still in captivity-" "Don't say it like that," Jeongguk suggested, "We're not animals." Yoongi sighed, "There's still a lot of gifted that are captured, and we need to get them to safety. The war is going to start."

"How do you know?" Yuna asked nervously. Yoongi opened his mouth but Namjoon cut him off, "Enough. They just got here, we'll let you move into your house before we fill you in."

They were given a house, which was quite adequate. Three stories tall, five rooms, with bunk beds in each. A small kitchen was tucked to a corner and a table big enough for them all to sit at was centred in the middle of the first floor. Soobin and Beomgyu rushed up the staircase as they chased each other like children. "It's so big," Yuna said in amazement. Kai snickered and was promptly hit on the head. "We got a house ready for you since we expected you guys would come together," Namjoon said as he leaned against the door frame. "How do you build this? It's got running water and electricity!" Yeonjun exclaimed. Seokjin replied, "There are gifteds with the ability of magic and alchemy, they put this village together."

"Well not entirely," Jimin corrected, "We started off with just the seven of us living in one house by ourselves."

"Well," Namjoon clapped his hands together cheerfully, "We'll let you guys settle in. You guys can roam around, just try not to venture out, where humans may see you."

Yuna sighed contentedly, "We haven't been able to shower in a week. Thank god."
