"Jungkook! Someone's calling you!", the shout caused Jungkook to bolt out of his bedroom, running back into the living room and nearly yeeting himself over to Seokjin who was holding up his phone.

"Damn, can you please be a little bit more rougher, I wasn't tackled to the ground yet", Seokjin complained loudly but Jungkook ignored him once he looked at the display.

It was an unknown number and he accepted the call with shaky hands.

"Hello? Jeon Jungkook speaking", he introduced himself, anxiously gnawing at his bottom lip, fearing for the worst and especially fearing a call from Taehyung's kidnapper.

"Yes, this is Jackson Wang speaking. I call because you mentioned my brother", an unknown voice greeted him, a low timbre which was pleasant to listen to. Jungkook's palms got sweaty, he of course was used to be around famous people but Jackson Wang was a chinese Rapper, well known and respected.

"Thank you for calling, Mr. Wang. I do not want to worry you but I didn't know who else to contact besides the police", now Jackson was concerned and he was also very disturbed when Jungkook told him his horrible assumptions.

"I do not want to accuse your brother of such a horrible thing but I've seen him act around my boyfriend and now that my Tae disappeared and it seems like he was kidnapped, I have to assume things and Chris is the top suspect as he was last seen with him", Jungkook said, hoping the rapper wouldn't get angry, he didn't mean no harm, Jungkook only wanted his boyfriend back.

"What role is he playing in the movie?", the question caught Jungkook off guard before he replied. "He's playing the protagonist, Prince Taehwa", he whispered back in response and he heard Jackson cursing from the other line.

"I want to meet you, as soon as possible."

°°°

Jungkook was very nervous when he walked towards Jackson Wang who was wearing a large hat and a mask covering his face, similar to Jungkook's attire since both of them were known to the public eye. They decided to meet up immediately, Jungkook entering the rapper's private recording room and once they were inside, the got rid of the masks.

"I would lie to say it's a pleasure to see you under the circumstances so for the sake of your boyfriend, let's start shall we?", Jackson and Jungkook shook hands shortly before the rapper motioned Jungkook to sit down.

"Thank you for helping me", the actor said gratefully. Jackson sighed.

"I wish this wouldn't happen", he said with a sigh before going to open something on his laptop.

"What's this?", Jungkook asked curiously and leaned forward.

"That, is the original version of the movie you're starring in. That's the reason behind everything and I want you to have it so you can understand", Jackson explained.

"My brother, he's... difficult. I think he was always under pressure because of my parents and because of my success. I never wanted him to feel this way but Chris is obsessed. Obsessed with being better than me and I think all of this started because he felt like he had to go against me, the supposedly hero. Our parents always put it that way, in their words, he was the bad guy. And I think that affected him", Jackson said, eyes on the screen.

Jungkook didn't say anything, he let him explain so he could understand. And search for Taehyung, help the police to find him. Any evidence could help.

"It always worried me how mental Chris became and his obsession with owning someone, with being in charge or the obsession with being the villain since he was always overlooked and stood in my shadow. I always tried to include him but he pushed me away, accusing me and saying it was all my fault", Jackson closed his eyes, memories hitting him.

"He always wanted someone to love him, to stay with him, even through his dark times. He expressed all of his cravings in this movie. And now, he's trying to turn it into reality because he wants to live in his fantasy. I love my brother. But he needs to be stopped, he's hurting someone and I cannot let that happen. Even though I don't want him to end up in prison. He's my little brother and I've failed him."

Jungkook put a hand on the rapper's shoulder, feeling sympathetic and finally understanding. Still, that wasn't excusing any of Chris' sick behavior, Taehyung was still in danger. Taehyung was still gone and Jungkook needed to know where Chris took him.

"You didn't fail him, Jackson...", he said softly, the rapper lowering his head in shame.

"I did. Because I didn't see how much he was suffering and now someone else has to pay the price for my mistakes", he whispered, seemingly lost in his thoughts but Jungkook needed answers and he needed them now. His boyfriend's safety depended on it.

"It's my boyfriend who's with him. He kidnapped Tae because he's playing the role of Prince Taehwa", he once again told Jackson, hoping the urgency in his voice would convince the man to reveal Chris' plans. If he knew about them, that was.

"Yes, I fear he's going to go after the entire plot. Are you also playing a role?", Jackson asked and Jungkook nodded slowly, fearing for the worst. He has read the script and assuming from what Jackson told him, Chris saw himself as Akma, the evil wizard. The one who dreamed about owning the prince and who wasn't going to stop until his concurrent was dead.

"Yes... King Jeongshan", Jungkook's throat was tight once he spoke the words, knowing the plot and knowing what was awaiting his character, him. But he was certain that he would fight a dragon for Taehyung, he would go against Chris to get Taehyung back.

Jackson rubbed over his glabella.

"I feared you would say that. Your boyfriend is in great danger. Chris wants to be Akma so badly, wants to be someone else. If you don't finish the plot and go the way he wants you to go, I fear he's going to hurt Taehyung", he then said at looked at Jungkook who was shocked but quickly swallowed his fear.

"Tell me where he's hiding, Jackson."
