After Jungkook darted out the door and disappeared, the members stood there silently. The concerned glances they all gave each other confirmed that everyone was equally worried out of their minds at this point. Jungkook was acting way too strange.
Jimin took the paper with the address on it and stared at it. "Some kind of apartment I think? And why the hell at midnight? Is he trying to play some kind of game with us? If so, I don't like it and I don't want to play. He's being weird."
"Let's just...go to where he wants us to go, at the time he wants us to be there, and see what all of this is about," Hobi replied.
Taehyung sighed. "What if it's some kind of trap?"
Yoongi nudged him. "What the hell kind of trap would he be setting up? As strange as he's being, don't forget he's still just Jungkook."
Jin couldn't help but giggle. "You mean Jungkook, the vampire slayer!"
"Not slayer." Namjoon laughed, "Just vampire, remember?"
"I still like the batman concept," Hobi laughed.
The hyungs still weren't taking this seriously. Yet as the night got later their anxiety picked up. Jungkook really hadn't returned home, and midnight was approaching.
Yoongi looked at the time to see it was 11:40. "We should head out now. We don't want to be late to Jungkook's party," he teased.
The members gathered into the car and headed on their way. They got a little bit confused when they found the address but couldn't find parking, so they parked in a parking lot close by and walked to the address. They stood at the top of the concrete stairs and looked down at the front door.
"He can't be serious. This has to be the wrong place." Namjoon gulped with anxiety.
Hobi stepped forward and pushed the door open. "Well...only one way to find out."
The members huddled together as they nervously made their way into the little apartment.
It was midnight.
"Jungkook?" Taehyung whispered. "Jungkookie are you here?"
They all flinched when they heard the sound of metal chains rattling. They looked at each other and started shoving each other, silently fighting over who was going to approach the noise first.
"Jungkookie if you're here, it's us. It's hyungs. If it's not Jungkookie we're really sorry if we have the wrong address!" Jimin was shaking as he gripped Jin's arm.
"It's okay." Everyone heard Jungkook's voice come from another room. They made their way into the small bedroom to see that Jungkook had handcuffed himself to a metal pipe that trailed along the floor.
"What the hell are you doing?" Yoongi asked as he made his way closer to his maknae.
"No! Don't come closer hyung ! You have to stay back!" Jungkook pleaded for them to all stay far away from him. He looked up at them and they all saw his eyes flash red and then back to brown. The sudden change in color made everyone flinch backwards.
"What the hell was that?" Jimin asked. "Did you put in some kind of contacts?"
"Hyungies...I..." Before being able to finish his sentence, Jungkook's teeth morphed into fangs right in front of everyone.
It was at this point the hyungs realized something might actually be wrong, but they immediately went into more denial.
"Was that...a trick? Are you pulling some kind of trick?" Jin asked anxiously.
Jungkook's eyes went back to red and stayed that way. His fangs stuck out of his mouth. Tears streamed down his face as he stared at his hyungs in silence. He could hear their hearts rapidly beating. All six at once, all going a million miles a minute. He realized that at this point they were actually getting scared and he didn't know whether to count that as a good or bad thing. He wanted them to believe, but he was still terrified of how they'd react once they finally had their proof.
The hyungs stood silent as they watched all this happen to Jungkook. None of them knew what to say. They couldn't think of any way at this point for Jungkook to pull off some kind of trick like this. And seeing how very clearly upset he was, they knew whatever was going on had to be real.
"No fuckin way," Hobi blurted out. "What the hell?" He tried to step closer to Jungkook but the maknae's instant scream startled him backwards again.
"No! I said don't come closer to me!" Jungkook had screamed. He wiggled the handcuffs that were keeping him trapped against the floor. "Can't you see? I'm dangerous. I could hurt you. I did this so I could show you in a way I won't hurt you so you have to stay back!"
Yoongi then took a step forward, Jungkook's warning going ignored. "You wouldn't hurt us."
"Hyung I don't know what I'd do to you!" Jungkook felt his heart sink with sadness.
Namjoon started crying. "This doesn't make any sense! This shit isn't real! These things don't happen to people!" He looked at everyone else and gestured to Jungkook. "I mean fangs and shit?! What in the world is going on?! What's wrong with him?! It's got to be some kind of virus!"
"I'm telling you it was the bat bite!" Jungkook cried. He really needed his hyungs to understand.
Everyone broke out into a noisy frenzy trying to figure out just how the hell a bat bite did this to Jungkook.
"So it is just like the movies..." Taehyung frowned. "He really is sick from it..."
Jin completely froze. "That means...if this is real then that means...the bodies..."
The realization hit everyone at once. It was Jungkook who had murdered those people. And the way he had done it, the way he had left the bodies...waves of terror swam through their blood.
Jungkook burst into a sobbing mess. "I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry h-hyungs..it's not what I want." He was hyperventilating badly. Instinctively Jimin stepped forward wanting to comfort his scared and sobbing maknae, but the youngest screamed at him to get away again as he curled his body up against the cold cement wall.
"Well what the hell are we supposed to do, Jungkook?!" Yoongi finally yelled. "How the hell are we supposed to help you in any possible way if we can't even go near you? Huh?! What is it that you're afraid of?! Murdering us and shredding us up like you've done to everyone else, apparently?!" The rapper was terrified and didn't know how to express his worry except through yelling.
Hobi took a deep breath. "Let's just...try to figure something out here..."
Jungkook screamed back through his tears. "I don't know what do! I don't want to kill you but I can't help myself! I can literally hear your hearts beating and I can smell blood from miles away and then I get so uncontrollably hungry I feel like if I don't kill someone then I'm going to die! And you know what? At this point I wish I just would but my body reacts even if my mind doesn't want to!"
"Nobody is dying!" Taehyung screamed.
"Well it's a little too damn late for that!" Jin screamed. "He's already killed people! What the hell are we supposed to do about that, exactly?! I mean if the police find out the kid's life is over!"
"My life already is over!" Jungkook yelled.
"Nobodies life is over!" Taehyung shouted. He made his way towards Jungkook and ignored the shouts of warning from everyone. Jungkook screamed his head off for Taehyung to back away but Taehyung didn't listen. He was nervous, but along with Yoongi, he felt like when it came down to it Jungkook really wouldn't hurt them. He kneeled down next to Jungkook and lifted his hands to hold Jungkook's cheeks, but the youngest quickly turned away.
"Jungkook-ah..." Taehyung said softly. "It's going to be okay.." He was crying too. His heart was completely broken. All of them were. And Jungkook could hear the breaking of his hyungs hearts and it made him feel even worse.
"I don't know what to do.." Jungkook looked into Taehyung's eyes. It felt weird for Taehyung to look back into Jungkook's because they were red now. He felt like this really wasn't his maknae at all, but he reminded himself that it in fact was. He gently took Jungkook's cheeks in his hands. He turned to the others. "We're going to help him. Right?"
The hyungs stood there speechless. None of them knew what in the world they were supposed to do. Jungkook looked at them with big, pleading eyes and they realized no matter what, they needed to help him.
"Of course..." Jimin said quietly. His voice cracked when he spoke. "We will...we will just have to figure something out..." He looked to everyone else and they subtly nodded.
"See...we'll help you...now how the hell are you going to get out of these handcuffs?" Taehyung asked.
"I'll do it myself," Jungkook mumbled.
"How?" Namjoon asked. He thought it was impossible. He saw no way for Jungkook to simply get out of handcuffs with no key.
"I'm...I'm stronger when I'm like this..."
Yoongi raised his arms up. "See?! There you have it! If he was going to hurt us, he'd get out of the handcuffs and do it! And he hasn't, so we're fine!"
Jungkook's frustration picked up. He really needed them to understand the danger they could possibly be in. Along with his anger finally came his sense of hunger.
All at once, he realized he was more than hungry, he was starving. His eyes widened with terror. "You guys have to leave. Now."
"What? Why?" Jin asked.
"Go! Please! You guys have to go!" Jungkook's own heart started racing as he was becoming consumed with anger and a desperate desire for blood.
Anyone's blood.
"Jungkookie we can't just leave you here like this.." Jimin informed.
"Leave!" Jungkook screamed at the top of his lungs and he watched as his hyungs didn't move a muscle. Even Taehyung wouldn't back up so he nudged him so hard with his shoulder that Taehyung fell backwards onto the floor.
"Kook..." Taehyung whispered.
"What the hell part of leave don't you understand?! It's happening...I'm...I can't..." Jungkook was consumed with frustration and couldn't form coherent sentences anymore. He could now even smell the blood pumping through his hyungs. He could smell their fear and it only made him starve even more. "Get the hell away from me and go home!"
Yoongi ran and helped Taehyung stand up and everyone backed away. It was evident that Jungkook was shifting into an extremely angry creature. His eyes had turned a deeper red and his fangs had gotten bigger. Everyone huddled together as they slowly backed away.
"Please...go...hyungs...go..." Jungkook begged with every fiber of his being.
"What about you...are you going to go out and..kill people...?" Namjoon asked nervously.
Jungkook didn't want to answer that question. Of course he didn't want to go out and kill people, but he knew once he got out of those handcuffs it was inevitable. And he wasn't about to let his first victims be his hyungs.
Jungkook's voice suddenly got deeper and so loud that it hurt everyone's ears when he screamed at them to get the hell out of there one last time. Finally his hyungs listened and they quickly scurried away and out the door down the road to the car.
When they got to the car they were all out of breath from running and from their fear. They all hyperventilated while resting their hands on their knees.
"What...the...the hell...just happened...?" Yoongi stuttered.
"Jungkook...Jungkook...he's sick..." Taehyung took a deep breath to try and still his racing heart.
"He was being serious. The kid was being serious," Jimin added.
"What the hell do we do now?!" Namjoon yelled.
The members went silent, nobody having any clue what to do about the situation they were now facing. After repeated silent glances at each other, Jin finally spoke up.
"No matter what, he's still Jungkook. He's still our baby. He's still in there somewhere. So we help him figure this out and save our boy. That's what we do. No matter what it takes, we save our baby."
He waited for the others to respond, and they all nodded in agreement.
No matter what, we save our baby.
