31| Helpless
??? POV
"Father... I'm sorry I failed you" I said as I bowed down to him.
"You didn't fail me once.. You failed me twice. This is not acceptable."
"Father please. Just give me one more chance! I will bring the girl as well and your wish shall be fulfilled."
".....Very well. One more chance and you mustn't fail me this time and no need for the girl. I have someone better"
"Yes Father, I promise to fulfill your wish. You can count on me this once" I said as I got up. "Just wait Father. Soon the world will be yours to conquer and they shall bow down to you! "
"ALL HAIL THE NIGHT FATHER!" I yelled as I turned around to the people.
"ALL HAIL THE NIGHT FATHER! "
Lisa's POV
The sun was setting now and the weather was damp as it had just rained awhile ago.
I was walking down the sidewalk, headed to an unknown destination. It's been a week since the incident at the Necromancer's Lair. A week since Jin oppa took a 180 degrees turn in personality. A week since Rosè lost another dear one. A week since my guilt started rising.
Or was it guilt?
Maybe
Maybe not.
That's how it's been.
Maybe
Maybe not
That anger, sadness and shock I saw in Rosè' eyes..... They still leave me in a tangle of messed up feelings and emotions. A part of me maybe still loves and cares for her. Just like a part of me hates her.
Pushing that aside, my power. Something I don't use anymore in fear I might hurt a dear one. I can't control it yet. I couldn't ever. And then I simply never used it. But that's why, I was unable to help others in the fight. Just shooting daggers won't do the job.
First time I got kidnapped and put a burden of saving me on others. And now I became a prey again. That's all I'll always be. A prey. Because of me, we lost to them. If only I had done something.
"What a useless wimp you are, Lisa." I said to myself as I stopped walking. "When have you been useful huh? You killed a friend, you killed someone dear to you ex friend, you got others in trouble. Tsk." I closed my eyes as my vision blurred slightly.
"You need to stop thinking like that you know" I turned around.
"J?" Hoseok gave a small smile.
"How did you find me? "
"I followed maybe" He shrugged. "But that doesn't matter right now does it? Lisa, just because you can't use your power doesn't mean you can't do anything. Jungkook, he doesn't have a special fighting power, but he helps. Me, I don't got no fighting powers or spells but that doesn't stop me either" He came closer "and you didn't kill them, Lisa. Your friend was an accident and the other.... It was just meant to be. You can't let it pressure you Lisa. Rosè is your opponent and all I know is that she would never find you a friend. You can't keep pressuring yourself with guilt."
"..... " I hung my head low and let my bangs cover my eyes.
Doesn't he get it? What's it like..
"My parents died because of me." My voice cracked. "They died because I couldn't help. Because I was useless" I felt him pull me closer to him as he wrapped his arms around me.
"Lisa, you were never useless. You were just helpless and it's okay to be so" I let out a sob.
"You don't underst-"
"I do. I understand how you feel. I know what's it like to be helpless in such a situation. I know what's it like to be unable to help. I know" He tightened his arms around me. "Lisa, this is how it always will be. This is life. Life would always try to let you down. And it's you who has to rise up. "
"But it's hard..and so unfair." I let out between my sobs. He let out a sad chuckle.
"Yeah. I know"
Elizabeth's POV
"I'm back" I said as I entered my cottage. I closed the door and took off my shoes.
Jin was being a bitch like always. His stupid mouth won't shut up now. God how I wish I never told him to use his mouth more. But that was when he wasn't like this. What's gotten into him? I wonder.
"Chou?" I looked around as I didn't get a response. My heart skipped a beat. "Chou, where are you?" I quickly looked into our room. Empty. "Chou?! " I yelled her name and quickly searched the cottage for her but she was no where to be seen.
Dammit
I opened the door to our garden and pressed a hand on my chest.
"Jesus! Chou. You scared me!" I let out a sigh of relief. My heart was still pounding.
"Hey.." She muttered.
"What are you doing here alone? " I asked.
She was sitting on the chair in front of the table which we had set up beside some bushes of flowers. There was a teapot and teacups on the table along with a plate of biscuits.
"Waiting for you."
"Oh.." I looked down slightly guilty and embarrassed. I had told my little sister that we will have our own mini tea party today. "how long have you been waiting? "
"2 hours"
"I'm sorry, I forgot" I said as I walked up to her.
"I can't really say anything to that can I? You are always busy and hardly home now. I understand."
"Chou I know you are sad and angry. And I'm sorry. It's just been really hectic and....It's just all messed up." I said and my shoulders slumped as I realized how much stressed and tired I've been with all this shit. First Jisoo, now Jin and the Demons. "I'm trying to spend more time with you. Please I'm sorry"
"Lizzy, it's ok. It's not like I can be angry with you all day" She giggled which made me smile.
"Tell me how can I make it up to you?"
"Tea time every Sunday?" She asked with hopeful eyes. I smiled.
"Done"
Suga's POV
"You called Hyung?" I looked up from my music sheets as Taehyung entered my room.
"Yeah, clearly. " I said as I put away the sheets to focus on Taehyung. "Sit down already, I won't eat you" I rolled my eyes as he came to sit.
"Sorry, the last time I sat on your bed you-"
"Yeah yeah shut up and listen" I hesitated slightly because I knew it was hard for Taehyung but I had no choice.
"Well, what did you wanna talk about? " He asked as I kept quiet.
"Yeah, it's about Jungkook" I felt Taehyung stiff.
"....What about him?"
"I understand your feelings towards him.." Why was I hesitating? "But I can't let you trying to help him. I know it hurts to see him suffer. But you can't since he's in our enemy's group. "
"Hyung, I'm sure I'm right when I say that Angels or Demons don't have a right to hurt their fellows at any cost"
"Yes. You are right. But since he's the leader, he can do anything he wants."
"THAT'S BULLSHIT" Taehyung stood up. "YOU SAW EVERYTHING! YOU KNOW VERY WELL HOW WRONG IT WAS! "
"Taehyung, I'm sorry to say this but you are completely helpless in this situation and these are my final words, you can't defend him at any cost." Who knew it would be so hard to explain this. "He's your enemy now and thats all he'll ever be"
