The CutEST and most WhoLEsoME thing I've ever sEeN. Also I apologize for the inconsistent updates, high school's been fucking with my head ;-;

Taehyung wasn't dead. He sure wished he was though. The pain throbbing in his neck from when Bogum had hit him still hurt like hell, and he honestly wouldn't have minded dying... Yes he would. A wave of guilt washed over him, what about Jungkook? It would be unfair towards him. 

He twisted his neck a bit, popping some of the bones there before glancing around at his surroundings. There really wasn't much. They were still in Yoongi's house, in one of the spare bedrooms. He wasn't tied up, but the bedroom was small, with a single bed and no windows.

Great. Guess I'm alone.

"Jungkook?" Taehyung tentatively called out, walking towards the door and twisting the doorknob. Locked. Of course, but it was worth a shot. Huffing in annoyance, Taehyung plopped himself over the bed and dozed off.

.-.-.-.

Jungkook was concerned. For one, he had no idea what time it was and how long he was out for, and because he couldn't find Taehyung or anyone else anywhere. He was pretty sure he was still in Yoongi's house, but he doubted that Luna and Bogum put everyone in Yoongi's house. That'd be too easy.

He knew for sure that he was inside Yoongi's house though, because he was still in the basement. Except everything was shoved aside and it was just him in a big dark basement with practically nothing. If he walked up the stairs, he could see the shadows of someone's feet.

"Okay. Make a mental checklist." 

Check the time

Escape

Find Taehyung

Find everyone else

Get weapons

Oh yeah and stay alive.

Where were they even supposed to go afterwards? The memory hit Jungkook like a smack.

"Okay, is everyone listening? Good. So, if you leave the neighborhood and turn left, there's going to be a small park. Continue along the park for about a dozen meters or so and there'll be this big shopping mall. Can't miss it. We'll rendezvous there if we ever get separated okay?"

"Yoongi you are an idiot. You didn't even say where!" Jungkook complained to himself, stopping immediately once he heard shuffling from outside the door. 

"Are you awake?" A muffled voice demanded, pounding on the door. Well if he wasn't awake before, he definitely was now. Jungkook needed to get to Taehyung. The only question was how. Slowly letting the gears in his brain start turning, he slowly formulated a plan. 

Jungkook sat to himself for about two minutes, enough to make the dude outside antsy and pound on the door again. He could hear the dude complaining to himself, and then dropping his gun on something with a clatter. Taking the opportunity, as soon as the doorknob turned, he kicked down the door as hard as he could. Thus, knocking the guy out cold.

Quickly walking out the door, Jungkook grabbed the other guy's gun and roamed throughout the house, looking for a clock.

"Hey! What are you-"

The woman was silenced with a bang. Jungkook felt a tiny bit bad for killing a woman, but to be fair, he was all for gender equality. 

Jungkook dragged the bodies off to the side, and quickly started looking for Taehyung. He slammed open the doors, calling out Taehyung's name. He didn't hear any response, and panic was starting to sink in. 

"Taehyung?"

He was starting to get frustrated, being met with nothing but empty rooms. After he was finally finished with checking the first floor, he ran upstairs, taking three steps at a time. He reached the second floor, not even winded.

"Taehyung where the hell are you?!" Jungkook shouted, his voice echoing across he long hallway. He waited for a second before he heard a faint scream of pain and fear. His eyes shot open and without another word, he cocked his gun and sprinted towards Taehyung's voice.

Once he reached the outside of the door he could hear crying. He paused to listen.

"You're going to stay still like a good boy. I hope you enjoy losing your virginity." A harsh voice shouted, and a slapping sound was heard. Jungkook didn't waste another second and tried to open the door. Locked. Of course it was fucking locked. 

"Screw this." He muttered before shooting the doorknob off and kicking the door open. Jungkook wished he wouldn't have to see such a sight again ever in his life. A man he remembered as Bogum was standing over a cowering Taehyung on the bed. Bogum had ripped some of Taehyung's shirt off and he could already see bruises blossoming across his chest. 

"What the HELL is going on?!" Jungkook shouted, anger boiling throughout him causing him to see red. "Oh it's you. How annoying." Bogum didn't even look at Jungkook. Instead, creeping even closer to Taehyung.

"Look at you. My, my, look how pretty you are."

"W-What?" Taehyung's soft eyelashes had tears dropping down. The pearly white liquid slid down his face, leaving shiny marks across his cheeks. Bogum leaned forward and forcefully slammed his lips onto Taehyung's.

That was it. Jungkook pressed his gun against Bogum and dragged him off before shooting cleanly through his head. The other man wasn't dead yet, his breathing was ragged as he glared daggers at Jungkook, who didn't care.

"You-"

Jungkook kicked him in the head, silencing him permanently. Breathing heavily, he wiped some of the blood off his shoe. He could feel his vision clearing up and didn't really know what to say. Quiet sobs brought him back into reality. "Oh my god, Tae! Tae are you okay?!"

Jungkook threw the gun aside and ran over towards the other, crouching down to meet his eye level. Taehyung was holding his bruised cheek and stomach, tears running down his face. Jungkook quickly scooped up the other boy and cradled him in his arms, running his fingers through the other's hair soothingly.

"You're okay." The other seemed to just notice that it was Jungkook who was comforting him. Letting out a small sob, Taehyung turned and flung his arms around Jungkook, burying his face into the male's neck.

Jungkook was pushed back a bit from the force, but quickly wrapped his arms around the other, being mindful of Taehyung's bruised stomach. The pair stayed like that for a bit before Jungkook pulled Taehyung at an arm's length.

His eyes were glassy and full of tears. Jungkook could literally see the fear and hurt in Taehyung's eyes. Sighing, he pulled the other into another hug. "Tae, I'm sorry I didn't come sooner... Are you feeling any better?"

Taehyung nodded into his neck quietly. "'M sorry Kookie. I-I should've been stronger... If only I'd-"

"Don't speak like that." Jungkook interjected sternly, holding the boy tighter. "Now, we need to get to the mall. Do you remember the mall that Yoongi told us about?"

Taehyung gave a small sniffle in response.

"Okay. Let's go there, alright?"

"...Okay."

Alas we are close to the end. Maybe 4-6 chapters left. ❍▽❍
