We're Angels S1 (vkook)

The valley of death

TP POV:

The next moment Taehyung opened his eyes, he was already on his way to the depths of hell. His eyes turned wide in panic at first but relaxed once he saw that he was in his twin's arms, secure. Jeongguk was in his full devil form. Large bat wings gracing his back, his face a gnarly red, eyes flashing the flames of purgatory. The rest of his body was covered in a classy tux. The demon lord seemed very much fond of this type of fashion. Taehyung stared at him for a few moments with widened eyes. He wasn't terrified of his face nor his wings. But he just couldn't believe that his twin's face could change in such a way. Nor did he think his beautiful wings would change in a way it did. He snapped out of his thoughts and felt drastic warmth coming from below him.

Taehyung dared to look down once and instantly regretted it, because he saw countless tortured souls being plunged into hellfire as their cries of agony reached his ears. It looked as though he could only hear them if he made eye contact with the flaming pond. But nonetheless, it terrified his poor being. "Don't look down there. It will only make your pretty little head panic." He heard his other half say and his eyes snapped to the man.

"Why did you bring me down in my sleep? Couldn't you have woken me up first? I almost had a heart attack!" The pretty angel exclaimed. A deep chuckle resonated from the hell warden "you would get a heart attack regardless if you were awake or not. Hell isn't the most pleasant place for sightseeing as you can see" he mocked down at the petit male in his arms. Taehyung gulped once he heard the statement. Hell truly was endearing for his fragile mind. This place was like a constant war zone. He shuddered at the thought of his twin staying in such a place for so many eons.

The temperature change caused the little angel to come out of his daze. He looked around to see the scenery had changed. Before it was like a war zone that was caught up in flames, it was hot and crimson red everywhere one's eyes could see. But now the temperature was icy cold and everything was hidden in the cloak of darkness. A weird light softly shined above, illuminating the place slightly as they navigated around the area. There were many many large black pillars that seemed to be tall to no end. Doors after doors on every pillar that looked to stretch for miles and miles. This place gave the angel's flawless skin goosebumps. It was eerily silent and occasionally a loud bang and screams would be heard from one of the doors, causing Taehyung to flinch like no tomorrow. Jeongguk was obviously unbothered by the surroundings.

He watched in amusement as his angelic twin would jump from time to time. He felt entertained seeing his face have any sort of emotion except for coldness. In this case, the emotion being fear. He could watch this all day but they simply do not have the time. So he firmly held the other's shaking hand and started walking with a specific destination in mind. To any other, it would look as if they were getting lost as everything looked the same. But Jeongguk knew exactly where he was going. He knew the place like the back of his hand. He was the lord of this place after all.

But suddenly Taehyung squeaked loudly once he saw through one of the doors from a foggy glass that a woman was being chained to a chair by a man in a mask, clearly an assaulter, and his gut churned badly. He wanted to go and help as the first instinct as an angel. But the moment he took a step to reach out to the door he was yanked backward into a hard chest. He slowly looked up at the devil who's face now turned back to its human form. The dark-haired man had a scowl on his face as he stared down at the silver man. "Let me go" the petit male demanded. "No" was all he heard as the man declined him with authority. "Let me go, please. I want to help!" He squeaked out. It was not like he could do anything here without Jeongguk's permission. It was his domain after all.

A taunting chuckle left the man as he dangerously hovered over the little angel that cowered in fear on the inside but tried holding his dark gaze. "They don't deserve to be helped. And even if you did, it's not like it would free them or anything. The cycle would just repeat all over again. Do you plan to help her again and again for all of eternity?" Jeongguk sneered, his voice going an octave lower.
