[16]

Taeyong's POV

After the call, I proceeded to Mark. Kai informed me that he's with Baekhyun when I got out of the meeting room. Baekhyun was hit by his only weakness. Darkness. So even though he surely is a skilled supreme, he can't help but lose when darkness comes.

I know that he tried searching for a quick treatment for it, I hope he found something to heal him, last time I saw him affected by darkness. He was weak for almost a month.

I realized that the door is unlocked, Mark Lee always forget to lock the doors, I'm starting to think that he got this from his friend, Zhong Chenle. Before I was going to knock, I felt myself staying still when I heard the two talking.

"Yes Mark, all supremes have weaknesses." Baekhyun speaks softly, I think he is recovering already.

"Why is that?" Mark asked.

"To remind us that we need each other." Baekhyun replied. "If you are strong to the point that nobody can defeat you, the higher the chance of leaving those who you leaned on during times of scars." He paused, "You know why?"

"Why?" Mark asked.

"There are two answers." Baekhyun says. "One, in the bad side, you might take it for granted."

Mark asks, "and the good side?"

"The good side, you might be too occupied of helping people that you will forget that you need care as well," a short pause. "The purpose of living is too live it with people you depend on and not being alone."

Knowing Mark, I think he will nod and ask another question. "What do you think is Taeyong hyung's weakness?"

Baekhyun giggles, "Why? You wanna end the one who raised you?"

"No." Mark replies defensively. "Just want to know, I was just curious."

"His weakness is losing you." Baekhyun says.

I paused for a while, deep in my thoughts, it was screaming yes. No one is aware of my weakness, it is obvious that Baekhyun is just joking but what he said was true.

Me and Mark are complementary. Without the past there is no future and without the future, past is non-existent. We bind together to keep the present safe and running smooth.

Baekhyun surely is an intellectual.

Mark laughs nervously. "What?"

Baekhyun chuckles. "Just a joke kid."

Being Mark's broher, I am sure that he expected it to be true. This kid is attached to me since he was born. I gave him to Wendy when we were thrown by the royals but he still stayed with me.

Mark lets out a soft sigh. "Then what is it?" he eagerly asks.

"Why am I going to tell you?" Baekhyun laughs, "I don't trust you." He lied obviously. I am sure that he is attached to Mark by the way he treats my brother.

"Come on." Mark demands.

"Actually," Baekhyun pauses. "No one knows."

Tired of just waiting and standing at this corner, I decided to show up. I don't want Kai to suddenly teleport in front of me saying that I'm eavesdropping. It's weird.

Baekhyun shows his famous bright smile. "Taeyong, welcome." He greets me. I think he's okay now. He is sitting on a couch with a pillow above his lap. Mark is sitting beside him, legs crossed.

"Hyung." He says as he looks at me. I think he is still not over with his talk with Baekhyun earlier.

I decided to play, he doesn't know that we both could do this because I never told him. We actually can talk through thoughts. "Mark baby, having fun?"

His expression changed into a confused seagull but I remain calm. "Baekhyun, you fine now?" I asked the sunshine.

Baekhyun giggles. "Yup." He then takes something from one of his drawers. "Found the cure for my weakness." He smiles, showing the liquid medicine to me.

I held it. "But if you are going to take this after you see darkness, you will collapse right? How are you going to heal yourself?" I asked.

He nods, he thought of this ahead. "I'm going to hand you guys the cure individually so be sure to keep it for me." He threatens me. "You don't want me to surprise you one night because you failed to help me."

I chuckled. "Yeah, I will keep this." I assured him.

He hands one to Mark as well. "How did Mark know that you have these?" I asked.

He points at the robot randomly cleaning the shelves of his experiments. "My babe robot found us and he actively directed Mark to the cure." He called for the robot. "Such a helpful babe." He pats it like a dog.

Time for the reason why I am here. "Baekhyun, can I have Mark for a while? I need to have a talk with him."

Baekhyun chuckles, then smirks, "No need to ask for permission, Mark is not mine afterall."

I laughed, looking at Mark who is observing the room quietly. "What are you looking at?" I asked him.

His expression changed into confused again. "Mark, look at me."

He replied for the first time, "Who are you?"

I chuckled but he didn't notice it. "Guess it."

"Let's go now Mark." I called for his attention. We both went out of the room, not forgetting to bid Baekhyun a goodbye and get well soon message.

I pulled my brother into an old stock room, where Taemin and Ten stored their old inventions.

"Mark," I said. "Is there anything bothering you?" I asked, playing with him. I noticed that he looked too stressed these days so it means that is wouldn't hurt to make him laugh or giggle for a while.

He crunched his seagull brows, "There is this voice, as if someone is talking to me but I don't know who he is." he replied.

You're talking to me idiot, "Maybe the both of you belongs to the same cluster." I explained. "You know, just like the others." he looks so cute just thinking of that guy right now.

He kept a lonely face until it went bright, "Does that mean that I have a cluster?" he smiles like he received something significant to his life.

A cluster is truly significant to us supremes. It defines your home, where you can always rest on. Without it, you will be treated like me, the clusterless Supreme.

But actually, me and Mark also have clusters. We are hybrids. We both are present in the Superhuman and United cluster.

I shrugged, "Maybe." I smirked, "That means that you have brothers." I smiled.
That's me.

He was thinking for a while, "Brothers?" he looked at me. "You are my only brother." his smile went up. "so that means we have the same clusters?"

I chuckled, it wouldn't hurt to spill some words to him. He deserves to know these informations. "You are a superhuman and a united member."

"Superhuman? Aren't the two guys who sneaked here from there? Baekhyun told me." he replied.

So now, i'm going to tell him these. "They're here for you. They want to kidnap you actually."

"What?"

"Years from now, the most violent meteors will hit the S World. I know that you already know that our world can't be hit by disasters but these meteors, is the first and might be the last. It will cause the most distraction to us, it might end up in one hit." I paused.

"The superhumans serve the royals, you know, the superhumans and the royals want you again to help them stop the meteors."

He furrowed his brows again, "Then why can't I help them? They need me."

I breathed, "No. Those meteors, can't be changed by time. It might aggressively affect you. You can't stop it." I gave him a sad smile. "In fact, no one still knows how to stop it."

"Then why do they still want me if I am useless?" this kid, I told him countless of times to not call himself useless but still, he didn't learn.

"They're desperate." I replied. "Now what I want you to do, is to know how to defend yourself. I know you have trainings but it is not enough."

He massages his neck, "I'm sorry hyung."

"I'm not saying that you are doing bad. I want you to know who you really are. Those trainings are useless if you don't want it in the inside."

He nodded, "Yes hyung."

















Mark's POV

Not like I'm sneaking in or what, I got permission from Taemin. I am inside the weapon room, doing what I understood from Taeyong hyung.

Looking for weapons that I can use, both for self defense and for battles. But I don't know how to choose since I don't have that much experience with fighting.

On earth before, I was more into music than being a kid that knows how to do intense fights.

So there are a lot of weapons and equipments all are very useful and amazing. But again, I don't know how to pick.

I walked around the room, the different types and sizes of swords and daggers lined up perfectly in their spots.

There are also guns lined up, from the hand gun into those enormous guns we see at movies.

And more advanced than those at earth's.

S World is truly something. A world only supremes know, a hidden diamond that those people who are desperate for power is looking for.

I went to another section, when Taemin and I were here, we didn't go to this area so it's my first time here.

Wow.

Bows and arrows.

Bows, some are small and others are big. It looks like it has different functions. And the arrows, does not look like the usual ones.

It has points that look like claws of a wolf. The end of some and different shapes but almost all can be deadly.

As I read the descriptions, some are to be used for other functions.

Wow.

I am in awe at these bows and arrows already. It looks so amazing and man I can't believe what I am seeing.

Until a memory came,

It's from the past, long removed from me. Maybe someone in my mind plugged this in but this surely is something significant.

It is me playing archery.


So I know how to do archery before but I just forgot?


I forgot a lot from the past, seriously to the person responsible for this, I will surely pour him with endless questions on why he has to invade my privacy.

"What are you doing here?" a deep voice greets me. I turned my body to the person and there he is.

Kai hyung.

"Just looking for weapons." I replied, during our trainings, I learned that you can't lie to him.

He chuckled, "To use? You can't even stand on your own." he smirked at me.

I looked down, why does he always insult me like that? "Just wanted to practice more Kai."

He opened one glass door and pulled an arrow. "You see this arrow?" he asks and I nodded. "Taemin made this last two months, inside its stem is a type of poison that can make you unconscious for a month."

Wow.

He smirked again, noticing that I look like a kid who just had his first time experience at a field trip.

He got another arrow after returning the arrow he showed to me. "This arrow, when shot, the pointy end will open up into four sharp parts." he looked at me. "Tell me Mark, do you want to use these things?"

I made up my mind, I know that this is what Taeyong wanted me to do. He wanted me to train in something a love and just seeing these weapons makes me feel something.

"Yes."

Then I was completely in shock with he next did to me.

A hug.

He gave me a hug, a warm hug, enough to leave me like a frozen seagull. His action was unexpected.

He smiled, "Let's train tomorrow if we have time."


















He looks at me, his dimples showing cutely. His hands went to mine, holding me tightly like I am going to fly away from him.

He smiles, that bright smile. I think that smile can spread positivity to all blue people in this world.

He leaned closer to me. I feel so special seeing him, the man I like doing this to me.

I won't lie, I am blushing.

This moment with him is worth taking note for.

I badly want to take a photo of him because looking at him, I can see cherry blossoms complementing the pink sweater he is wearing.

So handsome.

Too handsome.














He embraced me tight, but the next words he said just screams the border between us.

"Little sis, oppa is not going to let you go. Remember that, little Haesh."

He treats me like his own sister.

At least I have a way to keep in touch with him.

I can endure hiding this feeling.

I know that fact that we are never meant to be.

And I don't want to be with him because it might cause trouble.












A/N:

I'm the biggest hit on this stage 😎
