Flashback

There was chaos everywhere, the Dark War was spreading everywhere. No one was safe from anyone. Blood was spilled and familiy members were killed, slaughtered in front of their children. It was a war that would be engraved into everyone's hearts, whether they liked it or not.

The 7 kings were sitting in the royal hall, each king in their own seat. They were very well aware of the on-going war, and to be honest, they couldn't wait to particpate in it. Especially the 6th king, because he was thrilled to his very core. The other kings could feel the 6th king's dark aura, since it was basically shaking the whole royal hall.

"6th, keep your aura to youself." The 1st king warned. "I'm pretty sure your great-grandfather in the sky can even feel it..." He sighed.

"Do I look like I care?" The 6th king glared at the worrying king.

Just as the 6th king was about to luge at the door so he could join the war, a commander disturbed him. "Excuse me, sir. Your presence is needed on the battlefield." The commander bowed.

"Finally." The 6th king smirked and left the royal hall along with his fellow brothers.

All the kings were walking torwards the battlefield, almost hand in hand. Their formal attire moving against their well-built bodies as they walked throught the endless piles of dead bodies. Everyone turned their heads torwards the intimidating kings as they stopped in the middle of the field, ready to fight anyone who dared to attack them.

The 6th king's eyes glowed with a red glint in them. "Who's ready?" He grinned as the whole battleground rumbled because of his powers. All the soldiers roared in anticipation and the 6th king huffed in satisfaction. "Ready? Go!" He commanded the soldiers, who immediately roared and proceeded to attack all the rogues and the ones who dared to go against their kings.

The battle was fierce and bloody. The kings watched in satisfaction as their soldiers roamed through the battlefield, killing every single rogue in sight. Of course they couldn't participate the war themselves, they had to be a leading figure, after all. Although, the 6th king was getting pretty impatient, power seeping from his palms, ready to fight at any moment.

"Get your shit together, 6th." The 3rd king scoffed. "You're going to lose control if you can't control your powers properly." He added.

"Shut up, Yoongi." The 6th king glared at the pale king next to him, who only seemed to roll his eyes at the younger's arrogancy. "I'll do what I want." And with that, the 6th king left the other kings alone with each other, and started his evil little plan.

"That little arrogant bitch...always doing what he wants." Yoongi cursed under his breath before following the younger one to the battlefield.

"You're saying you were a king when the Dark War took place?!" Namjoon widened his eyes once again after hearing what Yoongi said. "Why haven't I heard of this?" He added in disbelief.

"I mean, it was supposed to be a secret until the end..." Yoongi scratced his neck nervously. "Of course that isn't gonna happen since you already know about that." He added and sighed.

"Right..." Namjoon nodded slowly, raising one of his eyebrows at Yoongi, who was obviously a little uncomfortable about the whole situation.

"Well, Kook. Did you get a clearer picture of what it was like?" Taehyung asked Jungkook. The younger seemed to be more puzzled than ever. He understood that Yoongi has been living for a long time, and that he's seen some shit alright. But one thing he didn't get.

Why did the Dark War even start in the first place?

"Um, there is one thing in my mind that I just don't get." Jungkook spoke quietly, getting everyone's attention. "Why did it happen?" He spoke again.

"What?" Taehyung raised an eyebrow at Jungkook.

"Why did the Dark War start in the first place...?" Jungkook innocently asked. He obviously hit a nerve, since everyone went quiet, too quiet. "...I...shouldn't have a- asked that, right...?" Jungkook chuckled nervously, hiding his embarrassed face in Taehyung's chest.

"It was because of the head priest." Taehyung suddenly spoke. "The church was really powerul at that time. Almost unbeatable." He sighed, taking Jungkook's face in his hands.

"He's right... the church was the one that started that mess in the first place." Yoongi joined. "The head priest had planned an enormous attack against us. We had no idea what was coming..." He closed his eyes in thought. Jungkook opened his mouth to speak, but he decided to keep quiet, and closed his mouth.

"Yeah, and now it seems like history is repeating itself." Namjoon commented. "It's like they want that to happen." He thought out loud.

"Yeah, it's not good." yoongi rubbed his chin in thought too. "Do they want to kill us that badly?" He sighed and playfully raised his hands in defeat.

"I think they're just after Jungkook and Hoseok." Namjoon sighed. "But something isn't just right, right?" He scoffed. Yoongi raised his eyebrow at Namjoon and listened to him.

"I understand that they want Jungkook, but...why Hoseok...?" Namjoon huffed in confusion. Although, he was right. Why would they need Hoseok too? Because of his powers?

"That's exactly what I was thinking about. It doesn't make any sence." Yoongi sigehd and stood up all of a sudden. "You know what? I'll go investigate some more." Yoongi announced suddenly. Hoseok was obviously against him, as he stood up too and grabbed Yoongi's wrists.

"No, you aren't." Hoseok pouted angrily. "I don't want to...lose you..."He looked at his hands that were wrapped around Yoongi's wrists, holding onto them so the older wouldn't go away.

"Hoseokie...I need t-" Yoongi widened his eyes. "Wait, why the fuck didn't I think of this earlier???" Yoongi slapped his face with his palm and rolled his eyes. "Your power can literally detect anyone that's around the castle, I'm so stupid." Yoongi chuckled at himself.

"But I haven't felt anything since we came to the castle grounds..." Hoseok said quietly. Yoongi widened his eyes and this time he was the one to grab Hoseok's wrists in his hands.

"Anything at all?" Yoongi knitted his eyebrows together in confusion. "Are you sure?" Yoongi caressed the youngers cheek with his hand. Hoseok gave a silent nod at Yoongi, who seemed to be more than irritated about the whole situation. "You're under a spell, Hobi." He suddenly said, which shocked everyone in the room.

"W- what...?" Hoseok widened his eyes and looked straight into Yoongi's brown ones. "I'm...what...?" He repeated his question.

"Under a spell." Yoongi repeated himself. "And I think it's one of Jimin's spells." He clicked his tongue in annoyance.
