" Who is this? Is he one of the suspects?" Jimin asked.
" No he is one of the victims." Jin said as he took out some more photos.
" These are all the girls and guys who had went missing in these past six months. They all are around Taehyung's age and looking at them, all of them are good looking." Jin explained.
" This is Choi Soobin. He is 19."
" This is Im Na-yeon. She is 21."
" This is Lee Felix. He is 19."
" This is Chou Tyu-zu. She is 22."
" This is Byun Baekhyun. He is 22."
" This Kwon Soon-young. He is 18."
" There were some others too. But Taehyung was able to recognize these six." Namjoon said.
" When we had found that they were missing we had interrogated their parents. Some of their parents said that nothing was suspicious but some of them said that their son/daughter had told them that they felt someone following them." Namjoon said.
" So that means that these six must be the same as Taehyung right now...." Yoongi said.
" But how can there be no clue left? The kidnappers must have been caught on some CCTV?" Jungkook asked.
" No. They haven't been caught on any CCTV's. We looked at the CCTV's of the whole day of every victim as per their kidnapping date. But the part where they must have been kidnapped is deleted. We came to know that it was hacked and that parts were removed by the culprits. But from all of that we deduced that the culprits must be very good at technology and those stuffs." Jin said.
" We didn't know when and where Taehyung must have been kidnapped. So when we asked him questions yesterday, we found out that the last place he remembers was a lone road." Jin said.

" Did you interrogate Taehyung's boss?" Jungkook asked.
" I did. His boss said that Taehyung used to look outside as if someone was stalking him one week ago the incident." Sungjae said.
" The only option left is to check black box of any car that was there." Jin said.
" As per the CCTV's at that lone road, there were only 3 cars which were in their same position before and after the deleted part where Taehyung got kidnapped. So there are much chances to get some clue about the culprits there." Jin said.
" That's all we could find from yesterday. Now we have to find the further information ourselves." Namjoon said.
" Taehyung's boss is also going to help us because he claims that Taehyung was very dear to him." Jin said but sighed.
" But we have decided not to call him." He continued and everyone there leaving Namjoon furrowed their eyebrows in confusion.
" Why? I mean- Taehyung's boss is a nice person. Some extra help would be nice..." Jimin said.
" We should not believe anyone blindly. Taebear's boss seemed suspicious. I studied his facial expressions when Joonie interrogated him, he looked nervous and scared. And I have solved enough cases to know that expression." Jin said.
" We tried to scare him so that he can answer but he never fucking opened his mouth." Namjoon clenched his fist.
" Or you could just bribe him and the work's done." Jungkook said.
Namjoon sighed.
" We are not that rich to bribe him Jungkook. Or else we would have done it a long time ago." He said.
" But I can help!" He said. Seokjin shook his head.
" We don't need your help for money Jungkook." Seokjin stood up.

" Wait! I am not helping you all with money. We will just use it to bribe him. Please! Just try out for this once!" Jungkook requested.
" Jungkook is right. If he doesn't get scared by all your interrogations, that means he is well fed by whoever had kidnapped Taehyung. Just give him more money and he will open his mouth instantly." Yoongi said calmly.
" Hmm.....ok. Let's not waste time and go now." Seokjin said.
" All of us won't go there. Only me, Jin, Jungkook and Sungjae will go. The rest of you three, stay here with Taehyung." Namjoon said.
" But I wanna go with hyung too!!" Taehyung whined and Jungkook looked at him.
" You should wait here Tae. We will go and come quickly ok?" Jungkook said but Taehyung continued whining.
" But-"
" Tae... Listen to Namjoon hyung ok?" Jungkook now commanded Taehyung who pouted.
" Fine!" He said and glitched and disappeared.
All of them looked at Jungkook. He raised his eyebrow.
" What? Let's go." He said and they were off to Taehyung's boss' place.
( At his place)
" I have already told you what I knew. Please don't disturb me or I will have to take actions on you." Sung-ho, Taehyung's boss said.
Jungkook sighed and finally came forward.
" So you won't answer till you are paid off huh?" Jungkook mumbled.
" Excuse me? Did you say something?" Sung-ho asked and Jungkook nodded.
" I am Jeon Jungkook. How much do you want to give us answers?" He directly asked making the other widen his eyes.
" Sorry what are y-?"
" 1 million."
" Look kid I-"
" 10 million."
" I don't know an-"
" 50 million."
" Stop it Jeon. I do-"
" 100 million."
" It was Lee Tech. They wanted to experiment on something related to mobiles. I don't know what but they needed Taehyung for that work so they gave me 25 million for that work. I had to just tell Taehyung to go to a lone street and then my work was done." Sung-ho spat making Jungkook smirk.
" You are under arrest Park Sung-ho for helping in kidnapping." Namjoon came out of the cover they were hiding in. They had recorded his confession.
Sung-ho looked at Jungkook.
" You little piece of shit! How dare you!?" He yelled as the police held him back from attacking Jungkook.
" How dare you let Tae get kidnapped? He had so much faith in you and you gave him to some people to experiment on!?" Jungkook asked back.
" Drag him to the cell." Namjoon ordered as Sung-ho was hand-cuffed and taken away by the police.
" We are coming for you Lee."

Demonic Requiem | The Epitome of Evil
He feared none but himself. As a human, Elias walked a cruel path which only got more vicious as he became a demon. Born as the son of the most powerful man in the continent, but lived a life no worse than a slave. His only friend being solitude. The further he endured, the further he began to lose his humanity. Even a point came when he lost all rationality and lived as a senseless demon. But no matter the obstacle. He endured. He learned. He survived. He evolved. As the rumors of his endeavors spread, many dreaded him, many worshipped him and many bowed before him.Nonetheless, Elias continued to walk on his path. The path of a demon. As time passed, Elias terrorized the world with his evil and devious means. People deemed him as a threat who could no longer be ignored. Many empires united. They allied, and an all-out war started. But, be it the cruelty of fate or their foolishness, the alliance lost. Elias stood as the lone survivor, but alas, he lost his life from an unforeseen cause. But for better or worse, his story still seems to have not ended. Elias gets reborn back when he was young, and the path he walked once, he will walk again, but this time the one who suffers will not be him. What to expect: This story is based on the concept of "What if a villain, gets a second chance?". Hence it contains a lot of torture, torment, and inhumanity. Revenge or such feelings do not drive Elias, so it's not a revenge story. There won't be any rape scenes or incest. It's also not a story like that. But expect some cruelty and torture along the way. Also, it's a slow-paced novel. In short: A lunatic who terrorized the world with devious power and cruel means gets reborn, this time becoming even more powerful and ruthless. Link for the Cover Art:
8 155The Third Spire
It has been decades since the Wizardly Order rose and helped the Realm to banish the monstruos Elfey from its lands by building the Five Spires. The kingdom has prospered greatly in the time since, advancing both in the magical arts and the more mundane technology. The Wizards have grown too, gaining influence and spreading throught the Realm, Wizards' Towers dotting the landscape on many regions. But as the Realm grows and starts looking beyond its borders, the Wizards are faced with one insidious enemy inside its own borders. Master Garner, a wizard in the scarcely populated far West of the Realm, feels the situation getting out of hand, and a violent purge forces him out of his beloved Tower. The wizard takes his apprentices and allies in search of uncertain safety in the Third Spire. Some sources of inspiration for this story, for variable reasons: Riyria Chronicles, The Wandering Inn, Gentleman Bastard series. Note: First dedicated attempt at writing. I'm looking for feedback, and I will appreciate if you point out any mistakes. Updates: Tuesday, and every other Thursday, as life allows it.
8 103Theodran [A Slice of Life, Progression Fantasy]
Release schedule: Thursday and Sunday at 12:00am CST. The world of Uneira is a desolate wasteland full of horrors and danger behind every rock, every bush, and every scraggly tree. Except for inside the Chalices, humanities frontiers and city states that have been protected by colossal white shimmering walls for generations. Only the most exceptional people brave the Unholy Wastes. But, inside of the Aetheline Chalice in its capital of Aethel, rank and status is determined by talent, skill, and archetype, but those that are extraordinary compete for prestige in the Pageship Games, where they’ll climb up the ranks to stardom or earn the right to carve a name for themselves in the Unholy Wastes after winning. *Magic is split up between Talents, Skills and Archetypes. It's my approach with a System like story without the system or other front-end applications of one. It's going to start as a bit of a slowburn coming of age, but that's really only for the first book. **There are three POV characters: Theodran, Modran, and Alanna.
