The Magician || Jinkook

Jin

Taehyung doesn't get the chance to answer before Jungkook pushes past him and enters the apartment. He gives me a confused look and I realize I need to explain what's happening.

"He remembers everything. I told him Jimin killed me last time and now he's angry."

Taehyung's eyes widen as he listens to me.

"He remembers? You mean he's Satan now?"

"Yes. Some kind of mix of Satan and the normal Jungkook. Just like the rest of us. Either way he's not happy with Jimin right now."

Taehyung hurries back into the apartment and I invite myself inside. I follow them to the living room where I see Jimin on the floor sitting next to a mannequin with my old uniform on it. Did he make that? How would he be able to do that unless he... unless he remembers. 

"You there," Jungkook says in a dark voice. Jimin looks up at him and when his eyes glide over to me I can tell he knows something strange is going on. 

"What do you want wandering into my apartment like this?"

"I want payback."

Jimin scoffs and stands up. His whole demeanor changes and I recognize it immediately. This doesn't bode well.

"Payback for what?" he asks. "I've already apologized several times for the accident and Hoseok-hyung said he'd pay for the-"

"You know that's not what I mean," Jungkook snarls at him. "I can see it in your eyes. The evil shines through no matter how much you try to hide it."

Jimin just smiles at him with a wicked grin. 

"Evil? Are you sure you're the right person to talk about being evil? Last time I checked Satan wasn't exactly a good person. Don't come here trying to act like some kind of hero when you're actually the villain in just about everyone's story."

Hearing his words confirms my suspicions. Jimin remembers as well. If this continues someone is bound to get hurt. Those two are both crazy. 

Jungkook takes a step towards him and of course Jimin doesn't budge an inch. He may be smaller but there's nothing that can scare him, even if he's standing in front of the demon king himself. 

"I'm not evil," Jungkook says. "If I really were then I wouldn't have been here right now. True demons stay in Hell, just like true angels stay in Heaven. I was too kind. Don't shift the blame onto me when you're the one who hurt Jin time and time again. Taehyung and I gave our lives to get him back home and you ruined everything by killing him."

Jimin's face shifts at the mention of Taehyung's name. I glance over at him and see how he starts looking a bit nervous. Jimin frowns. The look on his face his murderous. 

"I knew it. You lied to me."

"No, I didn't! I really don't remember anything-"

"But you were there! You knew about everything!"

"Babe, listen to me-"

Jimin grabs the knife from the mannequin and points it at Taehyung. It gives me flashbacks to our final battle. I knew it was a bad idea coming here out of the blue, but there's no stopping Jungkook once he sets his mind on doing something. Taehyung slowly raises his hands to show he's not a threat. 

"I'm not your babe," Jimin says. "Just like I thought you are on their side. You used me. I was just a tool for you to get them back together!"

"There doesn't have to be any sides anymore. We can all get along."
