Seven princes, within two separate kingdoms.

Jungkook was a prince that belonged to the Kudar kingdom. Jin, Yoongi, Hobi, Namjoon, Jimin, and Taehyung were all princes who belonged to the rival Yuki kingdom. The six of them had the same parents.

The kingdoms were rivals based on some ancient lore about wars in the past. The seven boys honestly weren't too sure what the wars were about, they just knew that all of their parents and the rest of their kingdoms hated eachother. The boys had seen eachother in passing and had been civil, they didn't quite agree with the fighting but were constantly told by their parents to never interact with eachother. People within the two separate kingdoms were not allowed to be friends. Jungkook couldn't help but be a bit aggravated about the rivalry because whenever he saw the other six he thought they always seemed to be having fun and he wished he could join them. Especially after they had secretly hung out once. All of them wished they could just openly be friends and hang out whenever they wanted to but they were at the mercy of their parents disputes.

There was another boy in the Kudar kingdom named Kuno who absolutely hated everyone and everything that had to do with their rivals. He always saw himself as an obedient and loyal member of his kingdom. Him and Jungkook didn't get along at all. They were the same age but would never be friends. Jungkook always figured he'd have more fun with the other six than that boy. Kuno was a bit of the kingdom outcast and Jungkook really wanted nothing to do with him.

One day Kuno walked past Jungkook and grabbed his arm, yanking him into a nearby building.

"What the hell do you want?" Jungkook groaned.

"The truth!" Kuno yelled.

"What the hell are you talking about?" asked Jungkook.

"Tell me you hate them," Kuno spat.

"Hate who?!"

"The six princes of Yuki. Tell me you hate them!"

"Why?" Jungkook asked, confused. He honestly didn't hate them and didn't see why Kuno needed to hear that he did.

Kuno smacked Jungkook hard across the face, sending him flying backwards into the wall.

"What the hell was that for?!" Jungkook cried as pain shot up his back. Kuno walked over and pinned him up against the wall.

"I've seen you, Jungkook! Whenever you talk to them, you're too nice! We aren't supposed to be nice to them! Have you no loyalty to this kingdom?!" Kuno screamed in Jungkook's face. Jungkook froze and didn't know how to reply. He was always nice to the other six because they'd always been nice too. He saw no reason for hatred.

"I don't know what you want me to say, Kuno! They're nice guys!"

Kuno grabbed Jungkook and threw him down onto the floor, "Say you hate them, or I will make sure to tell our elders that you've betrayed this entire kingdom!"

"Leave me alone!" cried Jungkook. Jungkook knew there were consequences to befriending their rivals. Kuno started hitting and kicking him in the chest and sides. He tried to fight Kuno off but unfortunately he was smaller than the other boy.

"You have to say how much you hate them!" Kuno screamed again.

"Okay!" Jungkook screamed in defeat, "I hate them! Now leave me the hell alone! You're hurting me!"

"How much?!"

"A lot!" Jungkook lied.

"And why?!"

"What do you mean why?!" Jungkook cried through tears as Kuno had him pinned to the ground.

"Why do you hate them?!" Kuno screamed into Jungkook's face.

Jungkook thought up a ton of random lies about why he hated the other six princes. He didn't believe any of what he was saying but he was desperate for Kuno to leave him alone and figured getting beat up really wasn't worth it. After Kuno got the "confession" he wanted from Jungkook, he stood up.

"Now remember your place, Jungkook," Kuno spat.

"My place?! I'm the prince here, and what are you? Nothing but a street rat!"

Kuno smacked Jungkook hard across the face again and disappeared.

Jungkook got up and wiped the dirt off himself. Sometimes I wish I could just leave this god forsaken kingdom and join the other one. The six brothers get along so well.

While leaving he was walking through the streets when he saw the six princes from Yuki walking past on the other side of the fence that divided their kingdoms. He couldn't help but feel guilty for the things he'd just said.

"Hi, Jungkook!" Jimin smiled and waved from over the fence. Jungkook waved back. Everyone caught up with what they'd been up to lately. Jin asked Jungkook what happened to his face, "You look like you got roughed up a little bit." Jin felt bad for the boy.

"It's nothing," Jungkook pouted. When they all saw their parents heading in their direction, they quickly said goodbye and separated before being caught.

"I hope you weren't talking to that stupid Jungkook boy," the six's mother had said. They all lied and said they weren't.

"Good," their mother spat, "That whole side is nothing but trouble. Has been for centuries." The six nodded in agreement, not meaning it though.

–

The next morning Jungkook's parents ran to him screaming, waking him up.

"What the hell did you do?!" his mother spat.

Jungkook sat up confused, "I don't know?"

"The parents of the six princes of Yuki kingdom want to have a meeting with us, regarding you, Jungkook!" his mother screamed.

"I don't know what I did!" Jungkook cried. I was just talking to them yesterday and we were fine!

"Well you better figure it out because it sounds like you'll have some explaining to do!" his father yelled.

"When do they want the meeting?" Jungkook asked. His heart was pounding in his chest. He couldn't think of anything he'd done wrong or why the six's parents would want to hold a meeting with him. Meetings between the two kingdoms were never a good thing. All they ever were were fights. Nothing good ever came from them. It was usually one kingdom calling upon the other to complain.

"Now!" his father screamed, "So let's go!" He grabbed Jungkook and dragged him out of bed, heading right for the meeting hall that had been requested. When they showed up it was just the six princes with their mom and dad, and Jungkook with his.

Jungkook looked at the other six and they all looked quite upset with him. Anxiety shot through his chest. Had he offended them somehow? He had no idea. He didn't understand why they looked so angry when they had just happily said hello and chatted with eachother not even 12 hours beforehand.

When everyone was ready the parents of the six princes turned to Jungkook. Their mom held up a little black box, "Care to explain yourself?"

Jungkook gulped, "I don't know what that is."

Taehyung went to say something but his father interrupted him and told him to be quiet. None of the boys wanted this to result in more fighting. It would only be another step backwards from stitching up the tear between both kingdoms.

"Well then let me play it for you to recollect your memory."

The play button was pressed and the recording revealed Jungkook bad-mouthing the six princes of the Yuki kingdom. Jungkook felt himself turn red in the face as it flushed with anxiety and embarrassment. He knew this was not good. The two sides had been at war for centuries and this would only add to the ongoing hostility. He looked at the other six and it made his heart hurt. The mean and vulgar things he was saying about them in that recording were not true at all. He'd only said them because he felt forced to do it.

"I don't..I didn't....that's all a lie!" Jungkook cried to the others parents.

"A lie?! Jungkook it's all clearly recorded right here what disgraceful things you have said about my sons! Who the hell do you think you are?!" the mother spat.

"No listen!" Jungkook cried, "That wasn't- I mean I don't think-" Jungkook's own mom interrupted him to yell at the others mom. She defended Jungkook and said it's not like anything he had said was a lie. The two mothers started arguing and Jungkook started crying. He never meant for this. This was the last thing he had wanted.

"Stop it! I didn't mean any of that!" he turned to the six with apologetic eyes. Yoongi stared at him with sorrow, "We've never been anything but nice to you."

"I know that! I know you've been nice! That stuff I said, I didn't mean it!" Jungkook was doing his best to defend himself through his endless tears, "It was Kuno! He grabbed me and forced me to say those awful things! He kept hurting me until I was forced to lie!"

"What do you mean it was Kuno?" Taehyung asked.

"He made me say those things!" Jungkook cried again. Everyone was interrupted when Kuno came barging into the room. He was eavesdropping from outside and heard Jungkook rat him out. He walked up to Jungkook and punched him directly in the face, giving no mind to the others around. The young prince fell backwards with a harsh smack into the ground.

"Jungkook!" Hobi screamed, running to him.

"You said that shit on your own, Jungkook!" Kuno screamed and turned to the other six, "That's exactly how he feels about all of you! You heard him say it himself!"

Jimin, Taehyung, Namjoon, Yoongi, and Jin all jumped in to try and help Jungkook even after what Kuno had said. They couldn't help it, even though he'd said such vulgar things about them they still cared about the boy. Neither of the parents did anything to help as they stood there in complete shock that the six princes were actually coming to Jungkook's rescue. They were supposed to hate eachother. What the hell was this?

"Leave me alone Kuno! This is your fault! You made me say those things!" Jungkook screamed at Kuno as the two wrestled on the floor. Kuno kept punching Jungkook as the other boys screamed at him to stop.

"You're hurting him! Leave him alone!" Taehyung screamed as he tried prying Kuno off Jungkook. Kuno was too strong for his own good. He kept screaming at Jungkook and hitting him. Jungkook was crying out in pain with every hit. He eventually curled up into a ball and felt like he was going to pass out.

"I'm sorry!" Jungkook screamed, "I don't know what's going on but I'm sorry! Kuno please stop! You're hurting me!"

"Leave him alone!" Jin screamed as he pushed Kuno, "Just leave him alone!"

"After the things he said, he deserves a beating! From you guys too!" Kuno screamed at the six. Kuno hated those six, he hated that kingdom, and his ultimate goal was to make sure that their rivalry lasted forever. He recorded Jungkook so that he could show it to the parents of the others. He knew a meeting would be called and he knew it would make tensions high again and cause more drama and fighting. What he didn't expect was these six princes to actually come running to Jungkook's rescue. Especially after the things he'd said.

Kuno kept hitting and hurting Jungkook until Yoongi and Namjoon were finally able to tackle him to the ground and get the two separated. Jimin and Hobi pulled Jungkook up and cradled him into a hug. He was crying and his lip was bleeding. He didn't understand why Kuno had attacked him, and he didn't understand why none of their own parents had gotten involved.

Jungkook then wrapped his arms around them, "I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. Thank you guys. I do really like you guys. I promise I didn't mean anything I said , I didn't have a choice. I'm so so sorry," he sobbed into Jimin's chest. Jimin rubbed his back and looked to his parents, "This is stupid. All this fighting is stupid!" he cried.

"Look where fighting gets us!" Taehyung screamed and gestured to Jungkook, "Look at him! Look how scared he is!" Taehyung turned to Kuno, "Is this really what you want?!"

"Yes!" Kuno spat. Yoongi and Namjoon had finally let him go once he had calmed down. All six of the princes from Yuki were now hugging Jungkook. Jungkook's parents and the six's parents looked at eachother with disbelief. They were still in shock over the fact that two kingdoms had just come together in that moment, and through their own kids.

Once the parents came back to reality, Jungkook's father screamed for Kuno to get the hell out of the room. Kuno was quick to disappear. He could only hope that the fighting would continue within.

"Don't you see what all this rivalry has caused?!" Hobi caused, "It's stupid! We're friends!"

The parents gasped.

"You're what?" Jungkook's mom asked.

"We're friends, mom!" Jungkook cried as he clung to the six still wrapped around him.

"And we'd like to keep it that way," Yoongi pouted.

"We believe he didn't mean what he said," Jin admitted. Him and his brothers didn't believe Jungkook was the lying traitor that their parents had always made him out to be.

"And you guys could be friends too and end all this fighting," Taehyung pouted to both his and Jungkook's parents. "It only leads to innocent people getting hurt."

"Whatever ancient rivalry you're living in, just end it! We weren't even there when it happened and all this fighting is just based on words!" Jimin cried, "It's pointless!"

All seven of the boys huddled on the floor were now crying. They knew there were consequences for mingling among other kingdoms, they could only hope that they'd at least all be scolded together if it were to come.

Jungkook's mother was crying at the sight of her son. "Your boys are right," she admitted to the six's parents. The boys all gasped in shock.

"Look what this has done to my son. And look what it's done to yours," she continued. The parents looked at the boys with pity and slowly decided to talk about the beginning of a truce.

An end to the ancient rivalry. They began to discuss a new world where the two kingdoms could come together, joining as one.

Over time they reconciled, and Kuno was pissed when one day he was walking by and saw all seven princes hanging out and having fun together.

And Jungkook had become just like their little brother.
