Elementals : Story of Colours || Jin

23 - A Hex

...

"What happened to this forest?"

...

Upon entering the mouth of the dark forest, finally they saw a glimpse of Jin on his knees tying up his shoes. Namjoon walks closer, ready to scold him but it turn out Jin is the one who scolded him instead.

"Why are all of you so slow? The others are already into the woods awhile ago and we barely deeper enough" Jin says, finishing his action.

"We were waiting for you" Taehyung presses his words.

"What do you mean you're waiting for me? I was with you the whole time" Jin states.

Realising that they were wasting time, Namjoon ordered the group to keep moving until they found a place to set up their gathering space.

Honestly, Jin is more like being dragged everywhere by the collar. He feels so awkward being in this group especially when he knows everyone is not fond of him.

"Don't mind them, years being with them I can say that their grumpiness is overload" Hoseok says walking besides Jin at the back of the group.

Jin just chuckles, suppressing his laugh at the statement. They continue they steps far ahead before a sudden strong wind approach.

"Suppress"

Jin stops his steps. Looking from where the wind came and go. Was it the voice from the wind? Was it the voice from him? No, it is not him, the voice is different from the last time.

"Come on hyung, let's get going"

Hoseok tucks Jin's hand gaining the elder back to the reality. You could say Hoseok is amazed by the wind passed by but then Jin was not beside him so he looks back then there he is, standing while looking far deeper into the side of the woods.

"You could get lost here hyung, let's go" Hoseok adds.

A moment of silence before Jin muttered something out of the blue.

"I know this place" Jin blurred out.

And that makes Yoongi stops his step although he and the other five are far ahead of both Hoseok and Jin. After all Yoongi possesses the hearing. Listening the words from Jin, Yoongi frowns, no one ever been here unless they're the graduates of Mosun.

Taking his steps in rush, Yoongi walks closer to Jin and Hoseok.

"What do you mean you know this place?" Yoongi asks in which gain all the attention of their members.

"It just-... I mean, I think I know this place" Jin says.

"No you don't, are you in your right mind? No one ever been here unless you're the graduates" Yoongi states.

"It's similar to my experience-" Jin tries.

"Of fucking course it's similar to your mind. You're an illusionist after all, you can create whatever you want with your ability. Similar? Oh yes, the trees in which the other forest has" Yoongi cuts.

"Okay now what is your problem? I didn't even do anything wrong but it seems like you have unfinished problem with me, you keep picking fights" Jin states, glaring at Yoongi.

"You are the problem" Yoongi points out his index finger.

"Do you think I wanted to be in a group who clearly makes it obvious that I was just no other than a thing to be dragged here and there?" Jin challenges him with his tone, clenching his fist.
