"I've been here for around three months, I assume. It's pretty lonely so you're a very nice distraction. I've found a few others by the way. You're not the only ones who got here", Jungkook told the couple while Hoseok and Jin were still hugging each other, the blonde sheepishly looking at them.

The male looked so innocent and nice, excited to finally meet another human being again and he could've been harmless if it wasn't for his aura. Something about this male was extremely fishy and Hoseok wasn't eager in finding out what it was. The boy could be a cannibal or a savage from staying here all alone.

It was better to meet the others and watch over the male all the time to see if there was anything suspicious about him. "This would be nice, thank you", Seokjin said, always the actor and always the one to hide his emotions the better way than his husband who always acted more impulsive. "Okay! This way!", Jungkook said and gestured towards a specific part of the beach before skipping forward.

"Something about him is fishy, don't you think?", Hoseok whispered to Jin who furrowed his brows by the comment. "What exactly were you thinking about? That he's all alone on this island without anyone else here? He seems rather well put together. And besides, this could be the island where..."

Jin didn't need to finish his sentence because Hoseok already knew what he was talking about. This could be the island where Taehyung has landed on after his own ship sunk. And that meant that something indeed was strange about this boy. Because if this really was this island, then the two must've known each other.

And coming to the conclusion that Taehyung wasn't here but this Jungkook guy was, then that meant that Jungkook has gotten rid of Taehyung.

Hoseok knew his best friend and he knew for his ability to survive in any way. Also his passion for survival videos so this would be the perfect opportunity for Taehyung to test this all out. Hoseok knew Taehyung like no other and he certainly knew how kind hearted and talented the kid was.

There was no way he wouldn't have survived a ship wreck.

"Hey! Fishmen! Are you actually here or just pretending to be here so I'm scared and won't try to leave?", Taehyung screamed furiously into the pond and huffed, his hand smacking angrily against the water surface while he stared into the dark blue depth of the sea, mysterious and hiding the monsters inside of it.

Taehyung huffed, leaning back and resting his body weight onto his knees while he gripped onto the rocks surrounding the pond, wet from his outburst and shimmering black. "You wouldn't even answer me, am I right? The idiot must've forbidden you to talk to me anyways", the raven grumbled, referring to Jungkook as the idiot as he didn't like saying his name.

It made Taehyung feel like he was conjuring him if he would say Jungkook's name out loud. After all they've been through and after everything Taehyung has discovered about Jungkook, the petit male wasn't going to tease his luck. Maybe Jungkook really was some kind of spiritual demon who could show up by the mentioning by his name.

But what did Taehyung know? After all, he has been wrong about Jungkook's identity the entire time. Thought he was just a creepy human at first, joked about him being a werewolf until the belief stuck that he was a cannibal and the passengers his next meal. While he was simply that what he never tried hiding.

It was just different to interpret.

"Or maybe you're stinky with me because I was right about your oh so mighty leader who sacrificed all of you for his own survival", Taehyung snickered and threw a small stone into the water, watching it sink down further until it was out of his sight. But Taehyung then stopped in his tracks, leaning forward again.

Because when he usually did this, one shark would come up to snarl up at him before diving back into the ocean to make sure he wasn't going to leave or attempt to. Jungkook of course had sharks guarding him all the time without his Baby noticing and Taehyung was scared that he was going to be tricked once again.

He has tried multiple times to escape of course, diving into the water only to be met with the dangerous sight of the sharks glaring at him, swimming towards the scared male trying to swim past them to escape but they only forced him to swim back into the cave, making sure he had no other opportunity to leave again.

This could be the same situation but Taehyung wasn't willing to stay here because he was scared. Jungkook has forbidden the sharks to hurt him so maybe there was a slight chance for him to get on the island. No one was going to die and this time Taehyung was going to succeed and stop Jungkook, save the newcomers and finally get away from this forsaken island.

So without further ado, he calmed down his breathing, tossing his shirt over his frame to take it with him before taking a deep breathe and diving back into the water.

Taehyung was already familiar with this path leading out of the underwater cave, confident long strokes taking him out into the width of the ocean and the raven looked around to spot any signs of the sharks. There was none.

'They must've gotten back into the shark bay to keep up the act and forgot about me!', Taehyung cheered inside of his head, smiling even to himself before aiming for the water surface, head tilted upwards and hope once again rising in his chest.

Hope that he finally had the chance to stop Jungkook's horrible doings.

So Jin and Hoseok are suspicious too! Seems to run in their friendship XD
