Seven Wings

(11)시작 단계

I lay in bed, staring at the ceiling. I wasn't tired, in fact I was the opposite. They have only been gone 2 hours and I was ready to go running around screaming. The wave of anxiety and anxiousness hit me fast. I felt like I was expecting something and had no idea what it was. Only that is was bad. 

I sit up when a wave of sickness floods through me. Lurching from the bed I run to the bathroom, the door flying open and banging against the wall. I fall to my knees in front of the toilet and throw up all of the takeout J-hope brought me. I couldn't stop, even when there was nothing left but me dry heaving. I groan both in frustration and despair. 

What the hell was wrong with me? I flush the toilet and lean against the wall as the wave of sickness passes through me. My entire body hurt. I mean everything. My libs felt like they were stretching off my body. My chest felt like they were to full. My head and stomach was spinning and I was so fucking hot. Heat flashes racked my body violently. 

Some reason I felt like it was going to get worse.

 A silent tear slipped down my cheek, mixing with my sweat as I crawled into the walk-in shower. I reach up and turn the water fully on cold. I close my eyes in relief when I feel the cool water glide down my back, soaking my clothes. 

Opening my eyes, I could only watch as the water hitting me turned to steam as it touched my skin. I sat there frozen in pain and shock. I held my hands out in front of me and watched as each drop eventually turned to steam. 

Everything they were talking about me changing must be happening. But why now? How come my eyes changing didn't hurt or my teeth. Regardless, something was happening to me and I couldn't call for help. I had to stick it out and only pray they get back in time.  

I scream as pain shoots down spine. I fall to the ground on my back, a silent sob ripping out of me. I bite down on my hand to hide more screams as more and more pain shoots through me. I arch off the ground violently as the worst pain yet tore through me. But this pain was different, it didn't just feel physical. 

It feels like it reached something it shouldn't have reached. Like something sank its claws into my soul, my very being and settled down. It was dark but also light. It was evil but also good. It was everything. It spread through me, reaching every inch of my being and became part of me.

I bite down harder on my hand, tasting blood, as more pain shoots through me. All around me things begin to levitate. The towels and products in the bathroom begin to slowing float in the air. Water droplets filling the air. It was like everything was suspended in space. 

More pain ran through me, and the lights began to flicker. The room flashes of color and black. I cried and gasped and couldn't stop shaking. 

I'm so scared. I'm so scared. I'm so scared. 

A finale burst of pain shot through me, even my hand couldn't hold back the scream that tore through me. 

Then it was all gone. The pain disappeared, the waves of sickness and heat gone, the anxiety and anxious feeling vanished as if it was never there. My body felt like it didn't just go through extreme pain but felt normal. All around me, everything suspending in the air dropped and the lights stopped flashing. The towels falling loosely to the ground and the clatter of product hitting and bouncing of the counter were as loud as my ragged breathing. 

It took all the strength in me to reach up and turn of the water. I collapsed back down onto the cold wet tile floor as soon as I switched it off.  I was too exhausted to move. I reach out over the edge of the shower and grab a fallen towel on the floor. I drag it under my head and close my eyes, silently weeping to be home and normal.

I watched the groups preform on the stage without really watching. The flashing lights and loud music nothing but a back ground noise. It was none of my business to even think about it. I had other very important things to worry about about but I was to busy thinking about how we just left her alone at the hotel knowing that she was soon to began the change. 

The changed happened in phases. Any human experiencing the change often felt the same things. It was different for other Da Terras of my origin. But humans always had it the worst when changing.   

First the eyes would change color, signifying what gifts were bestowed upon you. The body would show slight differences like smooth unmarred skin, slightly pointed teeth, any and all diseases or health problems cured. The second phase was the when your gifts begin to settle into your very being, becoming part of the human. It was like a tree that rooted itself into you and grew the more you took care of it. It hurt like hell. But not even as close the third and finale phase did.   

The third phase involved the body forming to shape and strengthen so it could hold the power of your gifts. You would die if you didn't. The human body isn't meant to hold so much power. Depending on how much power you had, determined just how much pain you would experience. And whether or not you got wings. The strongest had wings and by Nova having two sets  of prominent gifts, she was most likely to get them. Getting wings was always the worst pain. I have watched it happen before in my world and their screams were in my head even three days after. 

I only hope she never has to go through it alone. Let at least one of us be with her. She was too young and bright to be put into our world. 

"And the winner of this years award are the one and only... BTS!" 

An uproar of cheers sprang from the crowd as we were called onto stage to collect our award. I pasted on the smile and shock I normally did when it came to these things. I love the fans we have created in this world while using this identity to hide us from our enemies. I loved all of them...all seven of us did. 

But how long were we going to be able to keep this up?

Yoongi hugged me as we ran up onto the stage. His smile just as mine. I stared at the crowd of thousands cheering and screaming our name. Their Army Bombs Lighting up the Auditorium. I smiled and laughed with Jin, his eyes saying "can you believe this?" 

Jimin handed the award off to Namjoon who stood at the mic, his smile wide and eyes bright. Namjoon seemed intimidating when you first meet him but his heart for the millions of mortal humans that loved us was incredibly and ungodly soft. I suppose all the death he has seen made him want to teach love. 

"Wow! I don't even know what to say. Thank you so much! We couldn't have done it without you ARMY! Remember to love yourself!," Namjoon says and holds up the award. All together we say ,"We love you ARMY!" and exit of the stage. All smiles and laughter followed us as we go back to our seats. We all stumbled as Taehyung suddenly tripped, Jungkook catching him. Taehyung laughed and the crowd laughed along with him, assuming it a tiny cute mishap.  

But something was very wrong. I saw what the crowd couldn't, the slip of utter panic and shock that flashed on his face before he quickly slipped back on his smile and laughter. The glossed over look in his eyes could only mean one thing.

Something was happening to Nova.

 When Taehyung shared his blood, he started a bond that allowed him to find and feel her emotions. Since she doesn't know about it, she cant block how much she lets him feel. Taehyung looked at me and nodded, silently answering my question about if it was Nova.  

It was, and my heart felt oddly heavy.
