Taehyung is pacing the room anxiously. His hands scratches the sleeve of his shirt, trying to distract himself but all he could think about it Jimin and Jungkook.

What if Jungkook killed him?

Fuck what if Jungkook kills himself?

What if they're both dead?

This is so stressful.

Calm down little one. Lucas wouldn't let something happen to them.

Taehyung sighs heavily, letting himself go to his inner world. He's in a room now, an empty room, with a chair to his opposite side and a large screen on one side of the wall.

Where he sees everything on the outside through the body's eyes.

"It's been too long," Taehyung shudders, leaning to his knees with fingers engraving his head, "I'm so scared."

The red haired man sitting on the opposite end of the chair stands up, approaching the other male and squats in front of him, placing a hand on his shoulder.

"Don't be scared, everything is going to be okay," Karma cooes tenderly, letting his hand travel to his hair, "I got your back okay? We will work together through this. Okay, little one?"

Taehyung looks up to stare at Karma's face, a twitching smile on his lips to his own smile displayed to him, "Thank you... For always helping me."

"That's why I am here. You don't have to suffer, leave that to me to take it for you," Karma tells him, pressing a peck on his head, "We will get through anything together. I will protect you."

This is what Taehyung likes about his relationship with his alter, or Karma in this case. They understand each other very well, far too well.

Sometimes it's hard for a host to be able to openly talk to their alters or even control a switch sometimes - since every system is different. Here in the inner world, where his alter is, Taehyung has been here more frequently than the outside - where he's able to see and can communicate openly with Karma.

They have a strong sense of trust with each other and respect. They take turns taking over the body and can mentally communicate with one another when that happens. Some hosts either get blocked off or go into a blank amnesia type state during a switch, but Karma wants Taehyung to be co conscious to what's going on. Obviously he will block him off when it involves any brutal traumatic experience, but other than that he will be present as well.

Taehyung wouldn't know what he would do without Karma.

He protects him like an angel, and trusts him with his whole heart.

Besides the fact this is something that Karma does for the body, he protects Taehyung because he genuinely wants to as well.

He will do anything to not have Taehyung be hurt, and not because of the system or his role.

Their development was a process at first. Whenever Taehyung would've gotten annoyed with Karma, he would take his meds and block him off. Their communication got really bad after that so whenever Karma took over, they wouldn't hear each other's voices. So they would write notes to each other, apologizing, and eventually they began to hear each other again.

They can always make it through anything if they just work together.

"Thank you," Taehyung whispers, letting his eyes travel to the screen, "Can you take over?"

Karma smiles softly at him and stands up properly, "Thats what I'm here for, to deal with your stress."

And so Karma fronts to the body, getting a little headache as usual but he shakes it away as he looks around the room with a heavy sigh.

They better have not killed each other.

The last thing Taehyung needs right now is a mental break down, even though Karma will be the one to deal with the heartache. Taehyung would find out one day if that was the case, probably not the details.

Wow Karma is already planning what to do without knowing what happened.

Those two better be alive-

A knock on his door suddenly catches his attention, making him grab his mask and place it over his face as he calls out a faint come in.

Finally some news.

Lucas steps into the room, noticing it's Karma by the mask on his face, "Sir," he greets and bows.

Karma crosses his arms over his chest, "Are they dead?"

"No, just as you asked," Lucas says and stands up straight, "Well, actually-"

Suddenly two more bodies steps into the room, making Karma narrows his eyes instantly to the way the pair has their fingers interlocked together.

And the fierce gaze in the ravenettes eyes replacing what once was his vulnerable gaze.

Karma blocked Taehyung off completely and prepares himself to let things go for the worse.

Jimin is here and so is Jungkook, and they.....

They don't look exactly too happy.

Taehyung can't deal with a confrontation right now, so Karma is going to deal with it.

As his protector.

"We need to talk," Jungkook says sternly, making Karma raise a slow eyebrow from underneath his mask to the sharp tone in his voice.

That's when it all weighed heavy on Karma's chest, realizing what happened.

Jungkook bounce back..... To his own reality.

Oh no.....

Tae....

Tae can't be unsafe....

"So," Jimin beams sarcastically as he goes to the chair in front of his desk, a leg crossed over with sparkling eyes to the pink haired male.

"Let's talk, Karma."
