《Protected by BTS》Chapter 56: FIRE~~
Advertisement
The fire was minimal at first when Jungkook ran in. His first look into the once prestige storage he and the boys' had was now littered with blood and bodies. He spent no time in trying to put the fire out, but rather look for you and Jimin.
The fire grew with every second and the smoke was starting to kill Jungkook. Tearing his shirt off from the heat, he used it to cover his airways from the poisonous smoke.
He ran throughout the first half of the building, looking for his familiar hyung and you. But all he came across were more dead bodies and collapsing pieces of the building. The fire raged harder and it would consume the building soon.
He was in the heart of the flames by now and could feel the heat upon his skin. His body was yelling at him to get out, but his mind knew he had to look for Jimin and you inside. The fire was becoming larger by the second and Jungkook searched every unconscious body on the floor.
The smoke and fumes were starting to paralyze him. Jungkook coughed dryly and stumbled slightly over the falling ceiling and other materials from above.
It took so long to maneuver his way throughout the building when the fire and debris blocked his way. But from afar, he noticed Jimin's bright hair near the wall. Jungkook instantly knew it was Jimin and made his way to his hyung.
Jungkook collapses next to Jimin's unconscious body as he tries to get ahold of his body, "hyung?" he coughed. "hyung?!"
Jimin awoke slightly, but was still somewhat dazed. All he heard was a distant ringing in his ears as he looked up at his dongsaeng. The bright flames in the background helped bring his attention to reality.

"We," Jungkook coughed roughly into his shirt once again, "need to go hyung!" He helped Jimin stand. Jimin had an arm over Jungkook as they carefully walked.
Jungkook's previous path to Jimin was now engulfed in flames. Seeing as they had to find a new path around, they quickly followed the wall and looked for the nearest exit. "Kook, over there!" Jimin yelled over the burning fires and pointed to the window only about 20 feet from them.
Jungkook took note of its location and brought him and his hyung there. With a few steps back, Jungkook and Jimin took a small look at each other before charging at the once sturdy and unbroken glass.
With both of their force, the window shattered and Jimin and Jungkook were free. They rolled down into the dirt until they stopped a couple feet from the burning building. The additional dirt on their bodies were barely noticeable from the black soot on their skins.
They both started into a fit of coughs and gagging from the poisonous air they were once in. Even if it was summer, the temperature outside felt marvelous compared to the oven they were just in.
After a few minutes, their wheezing and coughs died down as they rested onto the dirt. Catching their breaths and calming their bodies, they relaxed into the Earth for a second before a realization hit them both.
"Fuck!"
"MiSun!"
Jungkook suddenly sat up and held his chest, scrambling to stand up. Jimin tried to follow him as well, scraping the dirt of the Earth in hopes that his body would listen and get up.
The pair tried to run back into the burning building, when a group of large forces tackled them to the ground.
Jimin and Jungkook did not recognize the men, but based on their outfits, they were firefighters. "What do you think you're doing? The building will collapse any second!" An older man stood in front of them and yelled.

It took 5 large firefighters to pin Jungkook and Jimin down. "You don't understand, sir. Our dongsaeng is still in there!" Jimin shouted and tried to fight off the men. But he and even Jungkook were no match due to their fatigue and injuries.
"Get them out of here, I want a team securing the area for any more civilians. The building looks unstable so we-" The fire captain started to order when he was rudely interrupted by the explosion from the building. The men quickly cringed and turned the other way, protecting their bodies from any flying debris.
"Misun-ah?!" Jungkook shouted as he watched the fire blaze.
~~~
You squinted your eyes and pushed yourself to sit upright. Your head was aching and you felt uncomfortably warm on the floor. Using the wall for support, you stood up and your legs were shaky from all the adrenaline that had rushed through you earlier.
What happened? Was all you could think. You walked outside into the hallways and immediately smelled the harsh burning of plastic and smoke. You also saw the bright yellow and orange light coming from underneath the doors.
You heard faint crackling from behind the door, and without thinking, you touched the metallic door knob. You hissed and jumped back instantly from the burn.
Fire.
Cursing yourself, you panicked in looking for an exit. Being on the opposite end of the warehouse, the fire hadn't even reached your side yet, but there were no exits. Your only chance was the burning door.
Using all your strength, you kicked the door down and it only fell due to its melting hinges.
A cloud of smoke and a scene of fire awaited you, causing you to gag and cough. Luckily, there still wasn't much fire so you could maneuver around; however, the smoke had already engulfed the whole building, making it hard for you to breathe.
You stumbled and jogged through every passageway, trying to find a door or a window to get out off. Lost in the building, you weren't sure if you were getting closer to the outside or you were going deeper into the building.
At this point, you needed a break. You slumped over the crumbling wall, trying to breathe. You wheezed and gasped into the sleeve of your shirt, wanting to give up.
You were delirious from oxygen deprivation and more and more of the building started to fall around you.
The wall you leaned upon started to collapse as well but upon closer look, you could feel somewhat of a vacuum feeling. Forcing yourself up once again, you realized this wall separated you from the outside. The opening was sucking the air.
Overjoyed, you knew that you must be close to an exit. But you would have to find it soon, or else the building would collapse with you under it.

Sylver Seeker
After fulfilling the duty all arch necromancers are tasked with, Sylver Sezari was not expecting to ever wake up again. But he did. And after crawling his way back into the land of the living, he’s alive once again. In a strange land, a strange time, and with a strange floating screen in front of his new face. Either through plan or chance, he’s alive again, and planning to enjoy himself to his heart's content. -The story isn’t grimdark, but it’s not all sunshine and rainbows either. There will be lighthearted and positive moments, as well as some sad ones. That being said, it’s a whole lot more light than dark. -This is a LITRPG story. Chapters are published every 2 days at 21:00 GMT. Author’s note:-It can get very GORY. I’m somewhat desensitized to gore and violence. So while the story isn’t full of gore for the sake of gore, it can get a little too descriptive.-The MC is a necromancer, so corpses and decay, and all the things that come with it, will be mentioned from time to time.-I’m a huge fan of Egyptian, Slavic, and Greek mythology, so expect quite a bit of that. That said, so much is altered, you’ll be hard-pressed to guess how exactly it is being used.-Despite being ‘immortal’ the MC can die. In the event he does, the story doesn’t end, simply time skips forward. Which in some cases is going to be worse than just dying.-I love plot twists, as much as I love red herrings and Chekhov guns. Deus Ex Machina’s not so much. Cover: https://angshumandhar.artstation.com/projects
