《Pied Piper | {K.NJ}》Chapter 19
Advertisement
You panicked as Namjoon blacked out in your arms, his head on your shoulder. He was too heavy for you to keep holding so you slowly brought him down with you as you sat on the ground awkwardly as it was in the middle of the road but it wasn't time to even care.
You used one of your hand to support him and the other to reach your phone. You called your brother and told him about the situation. After he managed to calm you down, you called the ambulance.
"Please be alright. Just please... be alright."
••••••••••••••••••<>••••••••••••••••••
Namjoon woke up in an unfamiliar place which he soon recognised it as a hospital. He groaned in pain as he tried to sit up.
"Whoah Whoah what do you think you are trying to do?"
He stopped midway of trying and glanced at the side where you were seated. You stretched your arms out as you yawned. You rubbed your eyes with your fist with a small pout.
"I asked what you were trying to do."
"How long did I pass out?"
"Hmm..." you checked your phone and shrugged your shoulders, "Three days."
"Ohh..."
You got up and leaned in closer to him which made him flinch backwards in surprise. You placed your ear on his chest. He didn't know what to do. He didn't know what you were trying to do and all he did was just freeze and turned into a blushing mess.
You smiled when you heard the heart beating louder than before. You drew back and sat down again.
"It's beating normally again."
He blinked and looked at you in confusion. You pointed at his chest and he looked down.
"Ah... my heart."
You nodded and grinned which made him look away shyly. You tilted your head when you saw him rubbing his neck nervously.
You folded your arms across your chest.
"Why did you do that?"
He looked at you and shrugged his shoulders. He knew what you were asking.
Min and Seokjin had told you everything. It seemed like this boy tried to be a hero by sacrificing himself for your sake which you really appreciated and not at the same time.
You let out a sigh and held his hand in yours. He stared at your hands holding his and looked at your face.

"We will solve this without risking one another."
"I'm not sure if that's possible."
"Nothing is impossible if you believe in it."
"I hope so. I don't really know what to do. I don't want you to suffer because of me."
"I'm not suffering. This heart belongs to you. I'm your soulmate after all."
He was a bit taken aback when you said that. But soon his lips broke into a smirk, making you blush and you immediately regretted what you said.
"I knew it, little kitten. You fell for me since day one."
"Shut up."
••••••••••••••••••<>••••••••••••••••••
The two of you spent the time together in the hospital. You made sure he ate well and slept when he needed. Rest was definitely what he needed. You had also brought the flute but he refused to play it.
You didn't know what would be the solution without figuring out the entire situation.
It was night time and Namjoon had fallen asleep. He must had been exhausted from all the thinking and the medication must had made him feel drowsy. You watched him sleep as you used your phone.
You felt thirsty and reached for the water bottle only to realise that it was empty. You stood up and decided to refill it. You slid the door open and headed to the water cooler which was just a few steps away.
You hummed a tune as you filled the bottle up. Once done, you capped it on and headed back to Namjoon's room.
What you didn't expect was to see pink camellias on the side table. You gasped and immediately left the room again. You stood in the hallway and turned back and forth to scan the place. No one was there.
You sighed in disappointing and turned around. You bumped into a person and dropped onto the floor on your bum. You winched slightly in pain.
The person had stretched his hand out to offer you help. You grabbed it and he pulled you up. You thanked him as you dusted off your clothes.
"No problem, dear. Were you searching for me?"
You recognised his voice immediately. You looked up and blushed when you saw him with a warm smile.
"T-Taehyung-ssi."
"No need to be so formal. You can just call me Tae."
"Ah Okay... Umm Tae?"

"Yes dear?"
You wet your lips nervously and played with your fingers. You phrased your sentence properly so that it doesn't come out stuttered.
"You know all about this, right? How do we solve it?"
"I do know all about this and I do know how you can solve it but..."
"But?"
"I cannot tell you."
"What?"
You couldn't believe it. You felt like everything just went down to drain and you didn't like it one bit.
"You see. I'm a creator of fate and I'm not supposed to tell you the future since it could change anytime. In your case, the future which doesn't exist. You build your own future and all I can do is guide you."
"So you will help?"
He chuckled and nodded. You kind of felt relieved even though it's not much at least you would understand what exactly is going on.
"I'm not such a mean person. Well, you see. You need to first know everything. And you have to be willing to accept him no matter what."
"That is not a problem. Even if he did kill a person, I would still accept him."
He looked at you and bursted out laughing. You raised one of your eyebrow as you didn't know what was so funny about it. You were being serious after all.
He noticed that your confused look and cleared his throat to stop laughing. He ruffled your hair playfully with a boxy grin.
"Well, since you are cute. I'll tell you a way."
"A way?"
He nodded his head and lifted his forefinger up.
"Let him target you."
••••••••••••••••••<>••••••••••••••••••
When you went back, Namjoon was already awake and seated on his bed, messy hair and looking like a dead person who just revived from his grave. You walked towards him and he turned to the direction of the footsteps. He pulled you into a hug which made you shocked.
"Where did you go? I thought you left me."
You stared at the top of his head. You smiled and ran your fingers through his soft hair.
"I just want out to get some water. I didn't know you love me so much."
"Of course I do."
Your heart skipped a beat and your cheeks heated up. He giggled. You wondered how a grown man like him could make such a cute sound.
"Your heart is beating so fast. I'm not even playing my flute. It seems like someone loves me so much too."
You pulled him away and flicked his forehead. He touched his forehead and stared at you. You stuck your tongue out and pour yourself a cup of water.
"You want some too?"
He nodded and you grabbed another cup for him. You passed it to him and sat down. He thanked you and you helped to keep the cup away.
The room soon fell into silence as you went into deep thoughts. You knew it had to happen and you could at least try. This was the only way left and you wouldn't want to risk it.
Your thoughts were interrupted when he nudged you by the elbow.
"You okay, little kitten?"
"I saw Taehyung along the way."
"I guess so. I saw the flowers," he pointed to the bouquet on the table, "Did he say something?"
You nodded your head.
"Do you trust in fate?"
You had to start slowly. You shouldn't jump into the topic. The outcome has to be the one you wish. You were placing a bet on something that must become reality.
"I'm not sure. The entire time, fate had been playing. I can't say I trust it but it doesn't mean I don't believe in it."
You hummed in agreement. It's going smoothly for now.
"Then, do you believe in destiny?"
"It's kind of similar to fate but yeah I do. Destiny seemed more of something that is meant to be there and it also means there is control. Things are there for us but the present is what matters the most. It is the present which brings out the future anyways."
"Then-"
You were cut off when Namjoon sighed and turned to you. His expression showing that he knew something was off.
"What are you on about, little kitten?"
It seemed like he had noticed it but you couldn't stop now. He's about to take the bait and you couldn't afford to lose it.
"Just one more. Just one last question."
"Ok fine."
"Do you believe in soulmates?"
"Yes I do."
Your lips curved up into a smile, satisfied with his answer. This meant that you could now bring up the main topic. Everything else had just been an appetiser for the main dish. His answers definitely gave you the confidence and helped you make up your mind.
"Make me your target."

Flame Beneath The Snowfall
Alto is a world governed by Tones. Magic, as one might call it. Manifested through deep mental and physical conditioning, one can control the Tones in a way that is unique to them. The power to store items in gems, transfer life, affect a person's mind, and even the more primal abilities such as control of the elements. Those who have these supernatural abilities are called 'Vassals.' People that fully manifest their abilities are not as common as one might think, and not all Vassals acquire their ability through practice, given if conditions are met. In fact, those who had received much trauma manifest the Tones more frequently, albeit spontaneously. However, the rare kind of Vassals are those who manifest it from childhood. A gift, but not without its repercussions. Alto is stuck in a transitional era, where the line between modern and dated technology is blurred. One can travel to a city that has a tall skyline, bustling with people in sophisticated clothing, or a mere town governed by a lord, all the while riding on a powered vehicle. Cultures vary: Some turn to the more dated practices such as castes, others are more inclined to set equal footing on their people, led by nobility. Some are dedicated to become scholars, studying Alto's Tones, while others set foot on hunts, protecting lone towns from the creatures of some of the still-untamed lands. And the Vassals? Those willing are took under The Organization, an elusive group, its presence said to permeate all throughout Alto, taking care of Rogue Vassals that abuse their abilities and other businesses related to their side. But what is this story all about, you may ask? Well, set your sights on the upper portions of this huge landmass that is Alto. Yes, the 'whole' world is called Alto, but that is because the majority of the known people live on this large continent. Relieve yourself of the worrying tensions everywhere, and see the white snow. Trace the piercing mountaintops and focus your eyes between the valley. A town sits there. Mido. After realizing that the memories only left in his mind was the night of his town's imminent destruction in flames, a boy finds himself grasping for every fiber of his life as he lays down flat on the ground. Beneath him was soot mixed with the white snow. Fortunately, a group of investigators, who were supposed to answer their call for help, saved him from his sorry state. With a newfound second wind, but hampered by his loss of memory, he must solve his own case: Who had the audacity to set Mido, his town, aflame? Flame Beneath the Snowfall focuses on action, with a sense of adventure, but mostly the discovery of an outside world, and the protagonist's exposure to it. Add in a whisk of soft magical elements, and you get a story that I hope will be interesting to the readers. That is not to say that my work is without the sense of unnerving atmosphere, however. As a forewarning, there are elements of gore, horror, minor elements of mental trauma, etc. so it is not for all audiences. *The book is already completed. Although I have plans to continue the story (it would have to involve much larger scope in terms of world-building), I have yet to decide when to start the next entry.
