Jimin sauntered back to the camping grounds, his black silhouette washed out by the heavy snowfall.

His face was pale as the moon, yet his nose, lips and cheeks were flushed red from the cold.

He couldn't run away, no matter how wise it would be if he did. The demigod had him in his clutches. He couldn't abandon him, he couldn't kill him, he couldn't change him.

But then, what option was left?

Jimin's feet began to disappear more and more into the snow with each step. Could he trust the demigod to love him even after he knew what he'd done? Would he still look at the prince the same way if he knew...

The prince released a shuddering breath, the cloud of air dissolving into the night. Surely the Apollo would have told him by now. Of course he had already explained everything to his son, and turned the demigod against the prince.

But still... Jimin couldn't help but edge closer to the tent the demigod had been given, just to wait on him, and see how bad the damage was. To see if there truly was no hope for them at all.

"Please..." Jimin whispered, staring at the white tent that was surrounded by lanterns. "Please, don't destroy what's left of me, Sunshine..."

"The prince was born with powers, just like you, Chosen One. But they don't include conjuring balls of sunlight or laser vision."

The seer and the demigod were walking through the hills, back to the camping grounds further ahead, and the demigod had been silent ever since they left the temple.

He was staring at the snow-covered ground, all the while feeling like he was drifting around under water with no intention of swimming back up to the surface.

"His power includes the ability to open a portal in his mind. A portal that allows a dark force to turn creatures of the light, into creatures of the dark once they've been killed. It is one of the most powerful abilities I have ever seen in a demigod, and I still don't quite understand how it was manifested. I believe it may have something to do with the fact that the prince was molded by Nyx, and not a consequence of a simple lustful act."

Jungkook only hummed, and the seer caught on to the demigod's surprisingly unphazed reaction.

"You don't seem as surprised as I had imagined... does this mean you had already suspected something?"

Jungkook simply shrugged, kicking the snow with each step. "I just thought he was different... I guess."

The seer sighed and nodded. "That isn't too far off, if you ask me."

The demigod's expression was entirely stoic, as though the many revelations he'd been exposed to had turned his mind numb. "My father..." he said.

The seer cleared his throat. "Your father was another one of Jimin's victims. He is not dead, but he has been turned into a simple, dark creature. I am not entirely sure if the prince is aware of this though. It could be true that he thinks Nyx caused the disappearance of the sun."

"So... you're saying," Jungkook mumbled. "My mother died during my birth, my brother died protecting me, my father died at the hands of my first love..."

"And you have to be prepared to kill the prince if you want this world to have a future."

Jungkook's eyes fluttered, and then his emotionless face broke into a large, broad smile. He doubled over, cackling loudly and gasping for air as though the funniest joke had just been told.

"C-chosen One?"

"Son of a bitch, are you serious!?" Jungkook kept laughing and slapped his thigh. "My entire family has been wiped out and you want me to kill the only person I have left?"

"My dear boy, I know it is hard, but you can not let evil win. The prince is being manipulated by his mother and she has nothing but tragedy planned for this world."

"Good," Jungkook scoffed, drying his tears. "What has this world ever done for me? It has tortured me, bullied me, put me through hell and back... and now you ask me to save them? To put them above-"

"The doll who killed your father? Yes."

Jungkook's lips quivered, and he yanked the seer close by the collar of his white gown. "He... is not just a doll you fucking cunt. And my father is a bastard who can suffer as a dark creature for eternity."

The seer gulped, but raised his chin. "Come on now my boy..." he said as the demigod's eyes flashed with golden light. "Jin never liked it when you swore..."

The demigod's eye twitched, but after a moment, he decided to let the seer go. He walked backwards, burying his face in his hands and screaming into them.

"I need to find him..." he said eventually, hanging his shoulders. "I... I need to talk to him."

"Chosen One, he is dangerous," the seer urged desperately. "Look me in the eyes and tell me he has not tried to kill you at least once?"

The demigod looked away. "Stay out of it," he hissed. "I will talk to him no matter what you say."

Jungkook ran across the camping grounds, peeking into the lit up tents to find the ravenhaired prince, but all he found were people celebrating, dancing, drinking and laughing.

The demigod went from tent to tent, asking each and every person for the prince, until he finally found the tent king Yoongi and prince Taehyung were sharing.

"Tae, Yoongi! Have you guys seen-"

"Demigod! By Zeus!" The king's booming voice thundered through the tent. The man was shirtless, and the demigod seemed to have caught the royals in an intimate moment, as the redheaded prince had been carefully stroking the king's chest with flushed cheeks before he entered.

"Uh... uhm, I'm sorry I... I needed to find J-Jimin?" The demigod wasn't sure if he was supposed to back away, or if the damage had already been done.

The king grumbled and threw his tunic over his head. "We haven't seen him since he ran away at the buffet."

Jungkook bit the inside of his lip. "Right... okay, sorry to disturb."

"Wait, demigod!" Taehyung called when Jungkook was about to retreat. "Did you receive answers? Did you speak with you father?"

Jungkook chuckled sheepishly, but then his smile quickly disappeared. "Y-yes... and no."

"Fuck..."

Yoongi rubbed his face and screwed his eyes shut. "Fuck!" He cursed sharply, and it seemed like the man was fighting back tears.

Taehyung on the other hand, was already sobbing against the king's shoulder, shaking his head as he begged Jungkook to tell him it wasn't true.

But the demigod didn't know how to lie.

"I don't... I don't understand," Yoongi said, rubbing his moist, red eyes. "Why was he with us all this time if he..."

"I don't think he understood what and who he was when he saved me..." Jungkook said quietly, sitting crossed-legged across from Yoongi and Taehyung. "I'm not sure why he stuck around when it became clear that I could get in the way of his plan i-instead of just killing-" Jungkook caught his lower lip between his teeth.

"Do you think it's because he loves you?" Taehyung asked with a helpless look in his eyes. "If it is... perhaps he can be saved? Perhaps you can lead him away from his dark path?"

Jungkook shrugged and let his chin rest on the palm of his hand. "I don't know... I just feel so lost."

Taehyug and Yoongis shared a worried look.

"I think you should talk to him. Lay out all the cards on the table and see where it ends," the king advised.

"I don't want anything to end," Jungkook said through gritted teeth. "Everyone talks as though I'm just a pawn in some game. Oh, this is your destiny, no this is your destiny, kill him, save them, listen to me. Yeah? Well fuck that."

Yoongi nodded with a sombre expression. "I understand how you feel... demigod, I do. We both do."

Jungkook blinked at the two men, and realized again who he was talking to. "What will you two do if this darkness ends and everything goes back to how it was?"

Yoongi huffed. "I won't let it go back to how it was." The king looked at Taehyung. "I will make sure never to leave your side again, my love."

Taehyung scrunched his nose and pushed himself up to peck the king's lips with an enamored expression. "And I won't leave yours..."

The redhead looked at Jungkook and smiled proudly. "We have been working on physical contact... see?"

The prince placed another kiss on the king's cheek, and another on his neck, and the king was having a tough time pretending not to be flustered.

Jungkook grinned, wishing the two men the very best in his heart. No matter what, they deserved a future. "I guess I will go find Jimin again," the demigod said with a sigh as he got up off the ground.

"Do tell him..." Taehyung said hesitently. "Tell him I still love him? Even after everything."

"The same for me," Yoongi backed up. "Jimin is my friend. The three of us made a pact in our youth that we would have each other's back no matter what. I don't plan to break that."

Jungkook looked over his shoulder and gave a curt nod, before slipping out of the tent.

He jogged down the hills again, looking for a sign of the prince everywhere when he suddenly heard a woman shout his name. Or rather...

"Chosen One!"

The demigod turned around, and raised his brows at the sight of six beautiful women, rushing toward him in a group.

"H-hello? Have you perhaps seen-"

"The prince? No," one of the women chuckled, shielding her mouth.

"But we have a surprise for you demigod," another girl said, taking Jungkook's bicep between her hands and squealing when she squeezed it softly.

"Is it hard?" Another girl asked excitedly, jumping up and down.

The girl holding Jungkook's arm nodded with a gleeful smile, and before the demigod knew it, he was being shoved toward his tent, surrounded by the swarm of women who would not let him speak a single sentence.

"W-wait, I need to find-"

"Demigod are you a virgin? Have you ever had a woman?"

"No and n-no?"

"I want to lick his muscles~"

"You want to what!?"

"I want to lick something else..."

"Lady, you better keep your toungue away-"

The girls screamed and laughed and Jungkook felt like he would go deaf if he was physically able to.

He was ushered inside his tent, which was quite a bit larger than the other tents, and got pushed onto a bed made of countless animal skins.

"I want to ride his cock," one of the girls said as she clapped her hands.

"I'm going to kiss him everywhere," another giggled as she slipped out of her white robe.

"Demigod which one of us do you think is prettier?"

Jungkook was being pinned to the ground and was about to tell the women to kindly piss off, when one of the girls stuffed her loincloth into his mouth and stopped him from speaking. "Don't answer that, you will hurt my feelings!" She whined petulantly.

"We will take good care of you dear demigod, we want to thank you for saving the world!"

"I ont nee you uys to ank me!" Jungkook screamed, drool dripping down his chin.

One of the ladies pushed up the Jungkook's tunic, and her eyes grew wide at the size of his member. "Oh by Zeus it's so pretty and big!"

"Of course it's big Alexandra, he's a demigod!"

"I want to suck it first!"

Jungkook's eyes blazed bright yellow the second he felt his cock receive the slightest touch and rid himself of the women's sweaty hands around his body.

He spat out the loincloth and panted with fire in his eyes.

"What the fuck do you women think you're doing!"
