Apocalyptic Romance (JIKOOK)(ONGOING)(ON HOLD)

Chapter 10: Unforgiving Past

As soon as Jimin finished yelling at Jeon, the man's face morphed into one of surprise at Jimin yelling at him, making him quickly sit down so he could try to avoid telling Jimin everything that had happened while he was in the Dark Seoul Gang.

All had gone silent for a minute before Jeon had finally taken a seat, much due to the look Jimin had been giving him, which was more of a mix between a stare and a glare, rolled up into one, but he didn't let that deter him as he took a seat on the cold, hard cement floor, taking in a shaky breath before exhaling and trying his best to relax.

Jeon had tried his best many, many times while being out on his own to seem like he was the big, strong guy who couldn't be knocked down, but as soon as someone like Jimin, who had a cute face and adorable voice, had yelled at him, he immediately turned into this small, meek boy who would do his best to listen so as not to die.

And he had done his best to keep the facade up, but it had only lasted so long before he gave in and immediately croaked out a sound of something along the lines of defeated sigh.

As he looked up towards Jimin, the other had an expectant look chiseled onto his features, making him look just that much more curious.

It was only when Jimin spoke up, that Jeon had finally let his mask fall, and began to slouch over, getting ready to tell his story of his time with the gang that had lead him to this point, them being the cause of why and how he was out here, so far out from where the gang had been located.

"Jeon... please. Tell me." Jimin said, hoping to break the stiff atmosphere and actually gain something useful.

As soon as Jeon had taken a seat and inhaled slowly, he began to choke up, realizing that he had no idea where to start if he was to talk about it, but he had figured there really was no good place to start, so he decided to go with a little bit before the missile hit struck.

"It... it started right before that missile struck," Jungkook started, just hoping that maybe Jimin would be satisfied with that, but such a wish held no truth as he looked up from the cement flooring to Jimin's anxious face, giving him the go ahead to keep going. "It all began before that missile struck, when you were probably watching that message come onto your TV screen." Jeon stated, voice becoming smaller as he remembered just how terrifying everything had gotten as he had just been recruited by the leader of the Dark Seoul Gang.

Back then, he had only joined the gang after they had recruited him, forcefully might he add, so that they could hold his word against had he ever decided to retaliate against such wrongfully powerful people, which he knew back then would not happen in the near future, but the tone of voice as they had spoken to him had him shaking in fear of his life, so he had been forced into such an agreement while he was only so young.

Jeon was only 19 when the Dark Seoul Gang had recruited him into their dark, harsh world, which had consisted of terrifying rules and conditions, just so they could keep those that had become one of them with them, without the fear of retaliation and exposure to the central government.

As far as Jeon knew back then, their word had become law, but that was only for so long until one of the members had tried to expose the terrifying group to the government in an attempt to make them stop, and had end up being killed right in front of his eyes.

From there on back then, Jeon had grown up more and had willed himself to become more skilled with weapons and such, just so he wouldn't fear for his life as he decided to go against the gang and their word and conditions.

He had vowed to become stronger, not just physically, but mentally so he wouldn't be swayed any more than he had been so he could go against the gang, and fight for what he believed was right by his own morals, even if it meant his possible death in the end.

But he was willing to try his best to get the horrible group of evil people to stop what they were doing, which was killing off those who had been completely innocent, not wanting to fight for or with the gang since they had no opinions or interests in common about how the government should or could change.

That had all been put behind him as he was finally able to escape their horrible clunches one night while no one had been on duty for interrogation to manipulate peoples values or morals, and use them against the innocent people, twisting and turning their beliefs, and morphing them into what the Dark Seoul Gang's own beliefs and morals had been.

Jeon had vowed to himself, that no matter what, he would find a way to take down the gang, but then he had bumped into Jimin, where all of his plans had been squashed for a while as the other male had stated that he lost his family and had wanted to get back to them, but then had gotten lost on his way to the Seoul Help Center, something of which had been directly thrust into the path of Jeon's escape from the gang.

So by then, he knew that he would have to help Jimin by bringing him to his family, which in turn might turn out worse because the gang could have sent people out to search for and find Jeon.

So when Jeon had been outside with Jimin earlier, he had an idea that those noises he had heard from out in the dry fields could have possible been done of the gang members searching for him this far out.

Though he still had yet to explain why he had been out this far.
