"Butterfly, butterfly
Come fly, fly
Yellow butterfly, white butterfly"

The soft words escaped Jungkook's dry, cracked lips as he dragged his feet through the forest. The words echoed through the forest, mixing together with the sound of the bell chums before drifting off into the wind.

"Come here while dancing.
Petals dance in the breeze too
Smiling, smiling and laughing." Jungkook continued to sing in Korean, allowing a ghost of a smile to tug at his lips, but despite the smile, his eyes were lifeless and full of exhaustion.

Jungkook's lips moved on their own- parting and pressing together as the words of the nursery rhyme left his lips. He walked out from between the trees until he was able to see the source of the bells. His head tilted to the side as he analysed the woman sitting on the ground with her leg trapped in a bear trap.

"No, no, no, no." She cried out, allowing tears to roll down her hallow cheeks and her slender fingers to grab the corners of the bear trap. She tried to pry the trap open, to release her leg, only for her fingers to slip and the trap to clamp around her leg tighter than before, "Fuck!" She screamed, throwing her head back in pain.

"The sparrows tweet, tweet, tweet,
Singing while dancing." Jungkook murmured under his breath- his gaze void of emotion and face stoic as he walked towards the woman.

At the sound of his footsteps, the woman turned to look at Jungkook, making her blond locks fall into her face. Her chest rose and fell as she panted, staring up at Jungkook with wide, pleading eyes.

"Please." She choked, pressing a shaky hand against her face before shaking her head and looking down at her bloody leg, "Oh god, please get it off, please!" She cried out- blue eyes turning completely watery, making her vision blur together.

Jungkook stopped next to her, allowing his words to die out on his tongue before allowing the corner of his lips to tilt up. His eyes travelled down to look at the woman's leg and he saw the trap sink into her pale skin until it reached her bone. Blood dripped out of the wound and Jungkook winced as he noticed that her bone was the only thing that kept her leg from falling off.

"That looks bad." Jungkook huffed out a chuckle, running his tongue over his cracked lips before crouching down next to the crying girl. He leaned closer to her leg and eyed it with fascination, "I'm surprised it's not off yet."

"Oh god! Please...no, no, no." The woman whimpered, squeezing her eyes shut and lowering her head so that her chin was touching her chest. Jungkook's heartless words made her shudder and feel on edge, but the situation she was placed in, didn't allow her to have trust issues, "Just...get it off, please get it off." She pleaded, squeezing her eyes shut and digging her nails into her thigh from the ripples of pain running through her body.

Jungkook hummed, tilting his head to the side as he looked up at her. He reached out his hand and placed the tips of his fingers against her cheek before dragging them down her tear covered cheek until he reached the small scar resting on her chin.
