Let's juggernaut down memory lane, shall we?

One year ago

Just like any typical Sunday evening, the couples went out for a double date. They decided to check out the new circus in town since the circus crew will only be here for a month before moving to another destination.

"Baby, I'm afraid of clowns" Jungkook admitted to Taehyung who comforted the little one saying that clowns are funny, silly and cute. That there's nothing to be afraid of so he started doing wacky faces just to calm down his precious pumpkin.

The Jihope couple on the other hand, was more than thrilled for the circus show to start. While waiting, they went around the parade to buy some candy floss and popcorn. It was a merry atmosphere. Kids running around, people giving our colored helium balloons.

"I want one please" Taehyung cutely grinned at the balloon man who was dressed in a rainbow polka dot suit. The man gave him one blue coloured balloon and the first thing Taehyung did was suck in the helium.

"Hey I want one too!" Jimin butted in. Soon all of them had a balloon, sucking in helium, speaking with their cartoony high pitched voices. Those dorks were so high in helium, the maknae almost stumble to the floor but Taehyung managed to catch him.

"Guys, it's almost 8pm. The show will start soon!" Hoseok reminded us all and soon people start storming in the circus tent. It's your typical sphere shaped circus tent with a ring at the centre. Once everything was seated, the ringmaster steps in.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, children of all ages" he welcomed us and continued "Welcome to the greatest show on earth! The circus is about to begin! Please seat back and enjoy" he bowed down and announced the first act which was this clown faced man who was juggling fire rods, along with a few more clowns.

All of us were planted to our seat, impressed at every single act. An hour passed and it's time for the final act, which was the clown in the beginning who was juggling fire rods but this time it was just a solo performance. He entered the ring, his clown make up was unique. It's funny yet scary. He was about to start his act when all of a sudden, the whole place was pitched black.

Everyone was in panic, the crowd started running out. We on the other hand did the same when there was a loud bang. Holding our lover's hand, we were scared as hell to move a muscle and ducked down as we have no idea where the gun shot was directing at.

Suddenly someone gripped Taehyung's hand, followed by another who held Hoseok's. The boys were afraid but followed the black figures out. The four of them got a clearer view of those who harshly pulled them out but too bad there were wearing a mask to hide their identity. By now the entire place was empty, everyone managed to escape.

"Listen up, boys, do as we say or we will shoot you"

The other one got out, dragging the dead body with him. It was the clown from before! Jungkook almost puked seeing all the blood which oozed out from the body. The boys had no idea why the clown was killed, maybe these two mystery man are assassins. They shot the clown directly in his heart, just by using an evoker. That's some accurate shot there.

By now it's almost 10pm, the place was creepy as hell. All you can hear is creaking sounds of metal, wind rustling making the swings moved by itself as if there's a dead soul swinging it.

The boys were frightened, never did they thought this will happen. All they wanted was to spend a night out in the circus with the love of their life. Never did they thought they will be sitting next to an assassin. The two unknown man led the boys into the woods. The front carrying the body up like a bag of potatoes while the back was pointing a gun to the boys.

"Bury him. No questions asked" the man demanded.

"B-but w-why" Jimin stuttered.

"I said. No. Questions. Asked!" The gun was now pointed to Jimin.

"Now bury! All of you!" The man shouted in his muffled voice due to the mask his wearing.

The man handed them each a shovel along with a glove. Looks like they have everything planned and well equipped. They did as told, hands shaking, feet trembling. The four terrified teens dug out a hole big enough for the body to fit and pushed the body down before covering up with dirt again.

In the silence of the woods, they started to hear a cracking sound coming from behind a tree as if someone were spying on them. The two mysterious man starts to run off but Jungkook managed to pull out one of the man's beanie. Too bad they had their backs facing the boys, with that they abandoned them there.

"Guys.. What the hell just happened?" Taehyung covered his face with his hands filled with dirt and Jimin could have sworn he saw a familiar figure behind the tree who witnessed everything. In one way or another, Jimin hopes that the person doesn't misunderstand.

It wasn't the boys who killed this poor man, it was the two mystery guys. One of which had silver hair.

Jimin's POV

Back to present time

All of us were still stuck in the room. I agreed with what Taehyung suggested but I remembered something from the past. The night we buried that body.

"Tae.. I think I remember now"

"Remember what?" He raised a brow at me.

"I think I know who this stranger is"

That sentence got the attention from the rest of them. Jungkook and Hoseok walked closer, keeping a distance from their lovers who was still pretty pissed at them.

"So who is it?" Taehyung asked eagerly.

"Yoongi hyung"

"No way.."

"Yes way" I retorted, "During that night, I saw someone with bright auburn hair hiding behind the trees"

Taehyung intervene, "But so many people has that hair color"

"I know but that super pale white skin and the way he looks at me.. It must be Yoongi hyung cause he used to-" I paused for a little while and glance over at Hoseok, wait why do I even care what he thinks now? Pssh Jimin.

"He used to admire me. I didn't tell any of you but he used to stalk me, secretly taking pictures of me. In the beginning, I ignored cause I believe he'll stop but no.. He continued" I sighed. Hoseok tried to make an attempt to comfort me but I quickly walk away.

"See told cha not to befriend someone crazy like him" Taehyung commented.

"He's not crazy, just lonely. Aish whatever you guys know nothing"

"So what now? We are still trapped you know"

"Jungkook" Jimin called out, "Remember you pull out one of the mystery man's beanie?"

"Yes. What about it?" Jungkook titled his head sideways, confused.

"He had silver hair didn't he?"

Taehyung interrupted, "Holy crap, you don't mean the killer is-"

"Namjoon" I confidently answered. Yesterday during orientation when Tae introduced me to his awesome hyungs, I recognized Namjoon's slick silver hair but I ignored that thought, I don't want to make accusations.

"What are we going to do now?" Hoseok finally spoke up. As much as I hate him for cheating on me, I couldn't bear to see the hurt in his eyes so I stepped closer to him, placing my hand on his sloppy shoulders.

"We stick together" was what I said. "Tae and Jungkook, please you know"

"Yes we know" Taehyung has calm down a little, embracing the little one in his arms. "I'm sorry, baby. You were just telling me the truth. I was just angry you didn't tell me and yes I'm dumb, so dumb but-"

"I'm dumber" Jungkook chuckled and they both kissed, "I'm sorry too, love" Taehyung pinched Jungkook's chubby cheeks as a sign that he forgives him.

"About your disease-"

Jungkook cut him off, "Shush, love. We'll talk about that soon okay? But now let's focus on getting out"

We figured the reason why the stranger is doing all this to us is because he thinks we were the one who murdered that body. Whoever that body was, he must have a pretty deep relation with the stranger or in this case, Yoongi hyung. I trust my guts that I'm damn right about him being the stranger.

"So are we still gonna call for backup?" I questioned Taehyung.

"Well.. I did exchange numbers with Seokjin hyung. We can ask him"

"But wait, you sure? He might be the second mystery man you know. I noticed he and Namjoon seem to stick to each other like glue"

"Exactly!"

"Exactly what, Tae?" I swear sometimes I don't understand what's running through my best friend's alien brain.

"If Jin is the second mystery man a.k.a Mr Assassin who harshly grabbed us to do his dirty work, then he would know how to get us out"

I furrowed my eyebrow, "I still don't get it"

He blankly stared at me. Just as he was about to talk again, the telephone rang. Oh yes, our rooms has a phone in it.

Three rings... No one answered. It continued ringing. I muster my courage to pick up the call but I didn't say hello. I waited for someone on the other line to speak.

A deep unknown voice spoke..

You are free to go now.

That was all it said before the call ended.

I walked towards the door and turned the knob. It unlocked! Taehyung started to open the windows, to ventilate the damp room.

We hurried out and ran towards the college wide open space, spreading our arms, inhaling fresh air. We felt so good like a bird set free from its cage.

I dug out my phone from my pocket to give Yoongi hyung a call to clear the air on everything. That we weren't the ones who did it but was forced to bury the body.

I tapped on his name and press call.

Calling..
Yoongi hyung

Sorry the number you have dialed is not in use. Sorry the number you have dialed is not in use.

The operator repeated it twice before the line got cut off.

"Shit" I cussed under my breath. "He's gone, guys"

"What do you mean 'he's gone'?" Taehyung was frustrated and added "Do you remember his dorm number?"

I nodded and all of us sprint to his room but to no avail. He's gone. It got my heart beat faster so I asked the person opposite his dorm room.

"Hi sorry, by any chance do you know where this person is?"

"Oh Yoongi? He left the place about an hour ago. He said he doesn't wanna stay here anymore"

I thanked the person and divert back my attention to the rest of them, worry plus fear fully plastered on my face.

"Shit guys, we're screwed"

"Is he going to report us to the cops?" Taehyung nervously bit his nails.

"No way. We have to fix this. It wasn't us!" Jungkook intervene.

"Yes Jungkook's right. We have to prove our innocence" Hoseok agreed.

"But we were the only faces he clearly saw that night"

"Guys..." Taehyung softly said, "Are we really going to jail for something we didn't commit?"

***
A/N: One last update before my work officially starts tomorrow! I'm so nervous but oh well that's life for a 21 year old. Sorry if this chapter ain't as good. I just feel the need to update before my busy week starts and I'm happy I manage to sit down to update this story + truth or dare.

So do you think Suga would do anything rash or would the love he has for Jimin prevail and team up with them instead to frame the real killers?

Stay Golden❤️

Xoxo,
