You always have the answers

To the place of madness,

Circularity of secrecy,

To find the meaning of forbidden winter,

A child lost in fear,

To find the pathway of entity.

The seven boys collective gathered around the slip of paper gestured outwards by Jin, taking it in turns to read the contents. They seemed to glare at the paper with such intensity that by the mere action they hoped the words would conform into something understandable.

' Don't you have something to say about this Leader?'

Yoongi sneered at Namjoon refusing the anger that rose in the pot of his stomach.

Forlorn at his thoughts he shook his head in denial at the older boys question. It was true he had no idea what the riddle meant there was too many things to take out of it and he didn't even know where to start or what it could infer.

' Say didn't she say something about secrecy when she let those assassins go?'

Jimin laughed lightly slapping Jungkook on the back who muttered in protest.

' I'm surprised you managed to hear anything over your blubbering Kook.'

Jungkook glared at Jimin shrugging his hand of his back as he ignored the stifled laughter from Jin.

' I could say the same thing to you Pabo.'

Jimin growled lightly jabbing Jungkooks shoulder with his finger.

'What did you just call me?'

'Jiminie Pabo.'

'Guys come on, we aren't going to get answers if your arguing.'

Hoseok stepped forward separating the two boys from their squabble as Jin cackled behind them like a horse.

' We aren't going to get answers anyway.'

Yoongi scoffed as he neared the medical bed glaring at the immobilized girl who's skin had turned a faint blue.

' Yoongi think about this logically, she somehow knew this was going to happen so maybe she has the answers somewhere else.'

' Or maybe she's just not as great as everyone makes out for her to be and couldn't predict what was going to happen.'

Yoongi felt Namjoons alongside Jins eyes on him as his hand curved around her covered wrist, lifting it somewhat roughly from under the bedsheets.

In his hand her wrist was like a stick, to him she felt so fragile like he could snap her arm within an instant but he refrained from doing so.

' I know what you're thinking Yoongi but it's not her.'

His grasp tightened against her sleeve Namjoon's words before letting it fall loosely back to the sheets. He scoffed loudly, turning on his heel to face the six and stormed out of the room.

' Don't you think that was a bit far Namjoon, you know how he gets when you bring her up.'

Jin scolded the younger member as he proceeded to wrap the girl in more sheets, hoping for the side effects to drain away. Namjoon shrugged dismissively.

'If Hoseok doesn't have a problem with bringing her into conversations then he shouldn't have a problem.

This infatuation with her is only going to make him a liability and I don't want to leave him on the streets. He's our brother but he has to learn that she is indeed gone.'

All eyes were on Namjoon as he argued his point and Hoseok shook his head in disappointment. Stepping forward he placed a hand on his shoulder, squeezing it reasonably hard.

' Just because we were close doesn't mean that she wasn't with Yoongi, they had a different type of relationship one that made that cold exterior of his open up.

You might not understand what he is going through but at least try and consider his feelings not only as a member but as a friend, a brother.'

With that Hoseok bowed his head softly and left the room dragging Taehyung along with him. The infirmary was cascaded into silence as Namjoon scanned over the riddle for a final time before scrunching it up and placing it into his pocket.

' Do you know when she'll wake up?'

Jin shook his head, a frown of concern on his features as he did so.

' The acid used at the club is a new kind of drug so no-one knows of the side effects or even how it works. Don't forget our only lead was killed by MJ so all information about it died with him.'

Namjoon nodded in understanding as he rubbed at his temples. Everything that had happened in the last week had slowly caught up to him making the stress amount to mountains on his shoulders.

' Don't worry about it Hyung, Yoongi will be fine Hoseok will make sure of it.'

Jungkook tried to reassure the elder but instead only made the weight increase, it was Namjoons fault that Yoongi will be drunk for days on end as well as the object for him to lash out on.

Jimin slapped Jungkook upside the head shaking his head at him.

' You're not alone Namjoon Hyung we are your brothers for a reason, try relying on us sometime just to ease your burden.' 

For a moment Namjoon was taken aback by the philosophical words leaving Jimins mouth, after all he was not one to take situations seriously but because of that he too began to understand the severity of the situation.

' What do you think about this?'

Jin smiled lightly as he swung an arm around Namjoons shoulders, gesturing for one of the two boys to speak.

' I think you should trust her a bit more Hyung if what you said earlier is true don't you think we should accept her a bit more into the group that way she can open up to us a bit more.

The reason she's probably being so cryptic is probably because she doesn't know whether or not she can trust us after all we have done nothing to prove we won't just back down on our deal when we get our hands on the Princess.

Of course if I was in your shoes I would be sceptic for the safety of all of us but now we know your suspicions we know she's not a bad person she makes out to be.'

' You might be saying that Jimin but she doesn't know where the Princess is, the whole reason they came after her was to find the runaway.'

' You really believe she'd throw us under the bus if she knew about her condition?'

' Gather everyone in the living room, it's time to have an official meeting.'

' Aye aye captain!'
