It was a big surprise that the vein in Taehyun's forehead hadn't popped out yet. In the manner that things were going, it didn't look like they were going to get very far.

As soon as Taehyung had spotted Jimin he'd started scolding him about his English and how times had changed and the fact that Jimin should at least try to catch up with it, unlike his height.

This completely pissed Jimin off and he charged at Taehyung, Jungkook trying to intervene to stop them but failing and getting dragged into both sides fighting. There had been a lot more conflict as everyone fell into an argument.

Beomgyu was being lectured by Hoseok on how much water he was using up for grooming the horses and Yeonjun was attempting to calm down his seniors.

Yoongi was talking to Soobin about his horns and was trying to teach him all about music and the only person that was sensible in that entire room was managing to keep his cool would be Taehyun, a small fairy sprinkling her blue fairy dust on his hair and commentating about how soft his hair was.

"I am going to murder all these idiots when hyung gets here, I swear-" Taehyun stopped when the gates opened and Namjoon came into everyone's view, his clothes all tattered with a lanky looking male holding onto his arm and standing next to him in rugged clothing as well.

Everyone froze, all of their eyes fixated upon Namjoon and Jin as the two walked into the discussion room and bowed down to Taehyun.

Taehyun flinched and yelled at his brother to stop with the formality and stand up but Namjoon didn't listen and continued.

"Your highness... it is a real honor that I was called back into the royal court, but I want you to know that a place where Jin isn't accepted is a place where I am not accepted and I have no wish to remain in such a place" Namjoon calmly stated but when he looked up and saw Taehyun with small tears in his eyes he stopped and smiled slowly.

"Namjoon hyung... it's been a while but, I need your help. All of us here in this court accept both you and Jin hyung." Taehyun stated before turning around to face the rest of his small council and muttering a 'please take a seat, for we have more important matters to discuss now than Jimin hyungs accent'

There was a lot of shuffling as everyone took a seat in a seat, Jungkook making sure to separate Taehyung and Jimin and Yeonjun getting the closest seat to Soobin.

"Now, before I explain why I have each of you here, I need you to swear to keep this information away from the queen and anyone outside of this council" Taehyun requested and once each of them made an oath, Taehyun explained the quest that he had to go on.

Silence. Utter and complete silence was the only thing that was heard as Taehyun finished his explanation but Hueningkai was the only one who spoke up.

"And what does that have to do with why we're here?" he questioned making Taehyun chuckle sarcastically before muttering an 'everything'.

"Ok, so I'm going to run away at midnight. This isn't really going to shock or surprise the queen much since I run away once in a while but she is probably going to get really desperate on how to cover this up. So, then I'm going to need Namjoon hyung to come up to the queen and offer to stand in secretly for me for a while" Taehyun began but was cut off by Namjoon declaring a 'no'. 

"excuse me, what?" taehyun questioned in an endearing tone as Namjoon once again declined to take the position of king.

"Namjoon hyung... are you going to let our kingdom die, keep me from my destiny, let all our magic die, and destroy our forests and nature spirits just because you don't want to be king for a few weeks?" taehyun questioned in a fed-up tone making Namjoon shut up at once.

"I thought so... anyways as I was saying, I'm going to need all of you to spread the word that I'm sick because that's probably what the queen would want to be done and we do not want any other kind of rumor spreading. I'm going to need my officials to step up and make sure this goes right and... Jimin hyung I'm trusting you with the responsibility to make sure the queen doesn't get on my tail at costs. The rest of you will help Namjoon hyung rule and... " Taehyun paused "Jin hyung- if you don't mind, I heard that you are a fabulous cook so could you please pose as one for this week and serve Namjoon food in his room?" taehyun requested making Jin smile before nodding lightly.

"We shall not disappoint thee, prince" Jimin started but was interrupted by Taehyung. "It's you. not thee, it's you" he corrected making Jimin blow a raspberry at him.

"Good. Now, does everyone agree and understand their roles?" Taehyun questioned and his response was given to him by everyone nodding simultaneously.

taehyun smiled, relieved. "Good. Now if you excuse me, I have to go prepare. This whole ordeal will begin tomorrow at sunrise"

Taehyun headed back into his room with Beomgyu, Hueningkai, Soobin, and Yeonjun following him. They headed into his huge (like really huge) room and the first thing Soobin and Yeonjun did was to collapse onto the bed with their hands intertwined and started cuddling.

"Do you guys have to do that when we're still here?" Hueningkai questioned with a disgusted expression making the two boys chuckle before turning to face Taehyun.

"So ms. prissy butt, what are you going to do?" Yeonjun questioned, his lips curved in a small smirk as he stared at Taehyun who was picking out the cape and outfit he'd gotten yesterday.

"I'm going to go change into this. I'm leaving at midnight and you guys to cover until dawn tomorrow." Taehyun muttered but before he could move another step he was engulfed into a hug by Beomgyu and Hueningkai.

"Oh~ good luck our little prissy butt~" Hueningkai cooed as he signaled for the other two to come and join, to which they complied, all of them piling on top of Taehyun in a bone-crushing hug.

"Thanks, guys" Taehyun muttered and for a while, he felt really upset that he couldn't take his friends on this mission with him.
