The darkness was lurking above in the cloudy sky, as cold breeze filled the emptiness beneath it. Just like the freezing weather on city streets, every emotion,feeling and sense went numb around him. The fog started to appear_making the darkness thicker by each moment...... and his heart started to tear. His world felt like scrumbling down, body eventually giving up the patience as he fell on his knees. That's when his heart clenched like hell_ finally screaming and calling his mom and dad. Now there was no stopping as tears flooded in those dark brown eyes and streamed down his angelic face as if there's no tomorrow.

He closed his eyes,turning to his right_he imagined his mom and dad,smiling oh so lovingly at him with flood of adoration flowing through their eyes. To the other side he could see the only love of his life.....His kookie,smiling reassuringly at him, gesturing to embrace him and take away all the pain & suffering he was going through ........

He was stuck with the life,not knowing where to go?

To the right where nothing's left or to the left where nothing is right??

Hours passed and taehyung was still sniffling, hugging himself tighter to seek warmth in a deadly cold night. His head was throbbing with pain and body limp from extreme exhaustion. He lifted his head to take account of the surrounding and took in the dark streets of Seoul at some steps. The lush grass he was sitting on and the bench nearby made him realize it was a sideways park where he spent hours crying and calling for his parents....their memories still piercing like an arrow through his heart.

He felt fed up of his life.....firstly for snatching his most precious people away from him and secondly....for making him cross the way with the ones who seemed like responsible of his parents death......this wasn't all_he was now deeply and madly in love with their son!

He never imagined his life to be this tragic .

This was just too much to perceive for this innocent little soul.

A honk of the black SUV caused him to flinch as he tried to now get the view of person stepping out of it. The headlight was not helping him at all,his already burning eyes adjusting to the sudden impact of light. A strange feeling crept through his tired self,but soon he seemed to relax noticing the male in front of him.

"Look at yourself, tae. Let's go now,it's too late,"joon said as he took in the completely worn out frame of younger, sitting frozen in the grass.

"I want to be alone, hyung. Please let me!"

"It's not the way to clear your mind,taehyung. Let me take you to my place, jin and eunwoo are already waiting for you. You can't just spend the night here,can you?" he said squatting down in front of the fragile frame of younger and smiled reassuringly looking into his eyes.

Younger kept silent for few seconds and finally got up, hoping jin hyung will help him best out of this situation. Both the males headed towards the car and soon drove off towards main streets.

Few seconds later,heavy rain started pouring down as if the sky wanted to descend down to earth. The weather was not so good since morning and looks like the vast and peaceful looking sky too couldn't hold it in anymore and bursted out.....letting the dark clouds clear his way.

Taehyung felt the rain pattering across the glass window,and soon the dark sky lit up by the lightning. He hugged himself closer for any kind of comfort or warmth he could get to ease the heart racing weirdly and his stomach rumbling with a foreign feeling.

Few minutes passed and he was deep in the sleep......probably after the weariness he went through for hours alone.

_________________

Jin was currently waiting for the duo,as eunwoo dozed off in his lap. It was past the time they should be home. He tried calling joon but couldn't reach due to bad weather.

He was startled by his phone ringing abruptly and hurriedly picked up the call.

"Hyung, how is tae? Please make sure he eats well and gets some sleep," jungkook said on other side,voice filled with pain and unfamiliar weight that was strangling his heart by each second.

A sigh left jin's lips as he closed his eyes briefly before answering,

"They aren't home yet,jungkookah! I'm still waiting for them."

"What? It's past an hour hyung, how is it possible? Have you tried calling them?"

"I've, but both of them are out of reach. Even the weather is not on our side today,"jin said looking out of the huge glass window as his eyes filled with warm tears _but he didn't know why. He was expecting them to be safe and sound wherever they are. The night seemed too long for all of them ahead.

....................................

"Dad! Joon and tae are still not home. This doesn't feel right. We need to look into the matter,"jungkook blurted out as soon as he stepped in the study of his father.

Jihwan looked up from his desk, completely unfazed, as his fingers started tapping the desk once again after a brief moment of pause. His eyes glued over to the screen of laptop in front and jungkook couldn't hold his curiosity back as he moved over to stand behind jihwan's chair.

"First time in my life I was desperately wanting myself to be wrong, jungkookah, "he said with a voice devoid of any emotions right now.

Jungkook couldn't process what was going on. All he could see was a red dot beeping on the screen,on which was a map of certain area far from the city of Seoul.

"Dad,please will you explain me what's going on?"jungkook was totally confused and frustrated to see his dad taking no actions at all. He was running out of patience.

Jihwan got up from the chair and stepped towards the centre of his study, manipulating the situation in his head. After a brief moment of silence, he turned to look at his extremely furious son _trying his best to remain calm as to listen what the hell is going on.

"The day I got threats from darco regarding taehyung, me and namjoon planned & arranged all the things we could for his safety. Joon suggested the idea of implanting a tracker into tae's body. When taehyung was living with joon and jin after accident, he himself implanted a minichip in his left earlobe, by using a shotgun_same as we do for piercings oftenly. We were the only ones knowing about it.

When joon left our mansion today,telling jin to wait for him, that he'll bring taehyung to their place.....I helped him to reach upto tae by using this tracker. But as soon as they drove off towards main streets, joon took him to this shabby looking place,far from the main city.

It's none other than 𝗗𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗼'𝘀 𝗱𝗮𝗻𝗲."

"D-dad... This c-cant be true!"

"I too wanted to believe in him,son. But when I tried calling him he was out of reach and then tae too."

"He is my hyung for fvck's sake!" jungkook yelled at the top of his lungs, still unable to believe how badly his life is getting messed up in just few hours.

Jihwan stepped closer to him,standing exactly in front of his son. Jungkook looked him in his eyes as a strong gush of rage and confidence swept through his body.

"It's the time for you to lead this mission,son. We'll follow the orders."

_______________________

There was no sign of human life in there. A creepy basement that had some giant tanks in completely worn out state.

His body ached as he lays on the ground sweating and panting in need of fresh air. The asphalt like ground was hard and cold to his back. The throbbing headache made it worse for him to look around and contemplate where he was in. He vaguely heard the footsteps thudding towards him and before he could be back to his senses_his hands were harshly being pulled by someone,guiding him God knows where to.

He was being dragged across the dark hallways and was thrown somewhere with a little source of light. Lifting himself up after the great efforts, he tried to take account of the place around. It looked like another basement, but this time equipped with some machines spotted with scarlet stains, a chair still dripping down fresh splatter of blood and a dark figure approaching him by each second.

He finally got hold of himself and looked up at the male who was now sitting at the chair in front of him_a male in late 40s,with filthy smirk plastered over the features that scared the boy to even stare at. He bent down closer, absorbing each feature of the boy squirming helplessly to get rid of the chains holding him hostage.

"Dohyun and his doll made a perfect fvckable piece together, I see"the male said looking at the boy, his dreadful voice echoing in the basement_soon followed by a menacing laugh.

"Kim taehyung, better call me by my name."

"You've got some guts,pretty boy. Then let me introduce myself........ DARCO,the one and only-"

"Filthiest and fvcking monstrous mafia known."

Darco raised a brow at the boy, amusement written all over his face.

"You seem to know me very well, babyboy. But learn to keep that pretty mouth of yours close in front of me. I swear you won't like the consequences ahead."

"What? Will you kill me? What else can a monster like you think of, right?"

The next moment,Taehyung felt extremely burning sensation over his left forehead followed by a trail of blood flowing down his side of the face.

Darco went back to his position, throwing the now blood stained gun to somewhere in the room.

" I've many more interesting things to do with you, sweetheart. Killing you isn't a wise choice at all ,you know?"

He leaned back into the chair,watching every move of taehyung to try escape the deadly grip of chains over the hands and feets.

"Ok, so let me tell you why am I doing this to you, before actually diving into the real enjoyment. I too have my rules in this mafia world,after all.

So where do you wanna start with, babyboy? About how your pretty mother was raped in front of her dear husband or how your useless dad was tortured & killed in front of her beloved wife?"

It was unbelievable.

What taehyung just heard was ridiculously unbelievable for him. Just the words from this Satan's disgusting mouth were enough to rip apart his heart into pieces. The blood in his veins went dry as he started to imagine the pain and torture his parents went through.

The ocean of grief and misery seem to be getting deeper with each breath for him. He wanted to survive but couldn't dare to swim through it. A storm of memories that were only keepsake he was left with.... started to cloud in front of his eyes. No imagination could probably explain the agony his adored mom went through_the mesmerising smile on her face was reflecting a horrific pain to him, still trying to hide it from her only son.

The torment his dad suffered as a hope to protect his most treasured wife and a lovely son they both will leave behind soon...... little did he knew the monster in front of them wouldn't spare a glimpse of mercy on both of them. And that's exactly what he did.

Taehyung was drained, completely drained from the outburst of the past like a shooted arrow_that continued to pierce through his soul until he ran out of blood. His life can't get more worse than it already was, that's for sure.

A whole splash of freezing water brought him back to consciousness,and he realised losing senses a while back.

"Oh,the story just started,pretty boy. Let me tell you some more details,"darco said while harshly lifting up tae's face to look him in his eyes.

"You must already know why I kidnapped your precious parents the day you left with that old lady,right? He interfered in my business first,so I needed to take steps too. You know how business works,right? Your boyfriend seems to be teaching you pretty good skills in his guidance after all!

Let me continue the story a bit more.....

I was desperate enough to make your so called dad, beg in front of me for their lives. But he was just too stubborn to realise what I can do to him and her pretty slut! Oh believe me, you won't wanna hear what I did to his chest, that was always full of proud....Then his nails.....fingers.....eyes....ears ......And before I could move on further,he was totally out of senses_a pathetic weak human I guess. So unfortunately I had to kill him. That was easy and no fun at all though!"

He let go of taehyung's face,again leaning back to his position with a menacing smirk on his almost black lips.

"That pretty slut of him begged me though, that too a lot. I wanted to fvck her in front of his precious husband, but he was already dead. But you know what, I found a way! My men forced open the eyes of deadly lying body, maybe his soul could see and sense how I was enjoying my heart out with her pretty doll....

I couldn't satisfy myself completely that night, cause another bastard barged in to our quarters the same time...With his armed men.

Jihwan_ I've so much debt left over him till now, after all he ruined my night years back.....well.... a very amazing and entertaining night.

He was smart enough to realise there is no way to try and get his best friend with his wife back to their world. So he just burned down my place_that fvcking piece of trash! I regret losing such a beautiful and perfect little slut for myself!

But no worries,now I've you, babyboy. Nothing less than-"

He couldn't complete what he was about to say, when sirens were heard echoing through the basements,red light started to beep restlessly and guards rushing to take positions.....

Seems like their headquarter is attacked, again.

The history around 12 years back is going to repeat again.... but with some amazing and surprising twists ahead.
