《Sundown ⚣ 「k.th + p.jm」》Twenty-Three

I watch as Umji walks down the aisle in a pretty white dress.
As she gets closer, I realize how beautiful she looks.
But it still doesn't make me love her.
She gives me a slight smile as she stands next to me.
The weddingofficiant starts speaking and I zone out.
He continues to speak for a while and honestly, its quiet boring.
I zone back in and start paying attention after a few minutes when he asks,
"Do you, Park Jimin, take Kim Umji to be your wife?"
I stay silent for a minute.
Do I say yes or no?
Do I really want to do this? No I don't.
But what can my mother do? Kill Taehyung right here right now? I doubt it.
I take a deep breath before looking down at Taehyung.
We lock eye contact for a few moments until he nods.
I turn back and face Umji who is looking at me confused and concerned.
I look at the wedding officiant and say my answer.
"No," I say firmly. "I don't"
The crowd gasps as I turn to face them.
"What!" My mother yells, drawing attention to herself. "You have to!"
"No I don't" I say, looking back at Umji who is calm before looking at Taehyung who looks a little scared.
"You will marry her, you will," She yells. "Or else,"
"Or else what?" I ask, tilting my head at her.
She smirks.
"Or else this," She pulls out a knife from who knows where and grabs Taehyung, holding it up to his throat.
she presses it into the skin slightly, making him snap his eyes shut.
The crowd gasps again but doesn't do anything, too scared that if they interfere, she'll kill them.
"Oh my god," I hear Umji mutter from next to me.

Suddenly, policemen start bursting through, surrounding the area.
"Put the knife down," One of the men say.
"No!" My mother yells back. "I wont, not until they get married,"
"Put the weapon on the floor," The guy says again, pointing a gun at my mother as he slowly walks towards her.
She narrows her eyes at me and starts breathing really heavy.
All of a sudden, she lowers the knife, stabbing Taehyung in the stomach with it.
She drops the knife, Taehyung with it, and runs.
Taehyung's body falls to the ground and I rush towards him.
I grab a hold of his body and hold it close to mine, taking my suit jacket off and pressing it against the wound.
I look up and watch as a bunch of policemen chase after my mother.
Soon, a gunshot fills the air and I watch as my mothers body drops to the ground.
I turn back to Taehyung and I watch him get lifted out of my arms.
I look up and see a medic carrying him away.
I stand up and quickly follow them, not caring about anything else that's happening.
They put him on a stretcher and wheel him into an ambulance.
I rush towards the medic.
"Please let me in there with him," I say. "I need to be there,"
"Sir, you cant enter unless you are related to him," The medic guy says.
"I'm his boyfriend-" I say. "Please,"
Another medic walks up to us and pushes the other away, telling him something before letting me into the ambulance.
I rush to Taehyung's side and grab a hold of his hand. He looks weekly up at me.
The people inside of the ambulance, rushing around as they try to close his wound.

The knife is still inside of him and blood is pouring out.
The vehicle starts moving and the siren comes on as we rush to the nearest hospital.
Once we get there, we leave the ambulance and enter the building.
I follow them inside as they push Taehyung on the stretcher.
I lock eye contact with him again before he closes his eyes and the medics start to panic.
"His breathing is slowing!" Someone yells.
Soon one of the medics detaches me from Taehyung's hand.
I fight against him as they roll Taehyung away.
"Sir, please wait here," The medic says once I've calmed down. he guides me to a seat and I sit down, exhausted. "Nobody is allowed in their other than surgeons,"
I nod and he leaves.
I space out, not caring about my surroundings and I close my eyes, leaning my head back against the wall.
All I want is for him to be okay.
I sit there for a few minutes before a thought pops up in my head,
Is this what he felt like when I was in here?
My phone starts ringing, jerking me back into the real world.
I answer it before looking at the caller ID.
"Hello?" I ask.
"Is this Park Jimin?" A man answers.
"Yes, Park Jimin speaking,"
"I am part of the police department," He starts. "I have called to inform you that your mother has unfortunately died due to a shot in her chest,"
I hang up the phone right after that, not caring to hear anything else.
My mother is gone.
And I don't feel bad about it at all.
The only thing to make this any better is if Taehyung's alright.
I sit in the waiting room for hours, waiting for a doctor to come outside.
"Park Jimin?" A voice says, making my head snap up.
I stand up and walk towards the doctor standing by the doors.
"Hello," I say. "I'm Park Jimin,"
She nods and looks down at her clipboard.
"We have performed emergency surgery on Kim Taehyung. he lost lots of blood due to other injuries we have found but luckily he is alive and quickly recovering. He should wake up within the next few hours and you will be able to visit him when he does,"
I let out a deep breath and a smile comes across my face.
"That's great," I say and the doctor nods again.
"I will come back out and inform you when he is ready for visitors," She says, moving the clipboard down by her side.
"Thank you," I reply, smiling.
She nods and goes back through the doors.
I walk back over to my seat and wait for the doctor to come back.
I can't wait to see him again.

Hazelsong: A LitRPG Novel
Release Schedule: I will be moving to a set release schedule as of 1/1/2022. A new chapter will be released every Saturday at Noon EST. If I have time that week for a second chapter, I will leave a note on the Saturday chapter and post the second chapter on Sunday at Noon EST. An up to date character sheet for the MC Erik will also be posted on Sundays at 12:15 PM. If life happens and I am for some reason unable to write that week, I will post a blank chapter giving you an update on where I am with my writing. Saturday Noon EST: First weekly chapter Sunday Noon EST: Second weekly chapter (if I have the time) Sunday 12:15 EST: Updated character sheet Synopsis: Years after surviving a deadly accident, Erik struggles to come to terms with his painful disability. When offered the chance to playtest the world's first full immersion VRMMO, he wants nothing more than to retreat back into his secluded life, until he learns what Hazelsong really offers. An escape from the pain. Hazelsong is a world of magic and adventure, a place where friendships are formed, loot is won, and glory and fame are there for the taking. While the threats feel real and the stakes are always high, there is only one thing Erik is really in danger of. Forgetting which world is actually real. Story Themes: Hazelsong is a LitRPG novel that not only explores the fictional world of a realistic online fantasy realm but the life of a man suffering in silence from chronic pain and PTSD due to a significant physical injury and disability. Mental health is an important subject and we all know at least one person in our lives who has or is dealing with some form of mental illness. I plan on putting my best effort forward to represent these illnesses in a fair and accurate manner. Not as a cheap plot device to help make the protagonist more unique, but to help paint an accurate picture for those of us who have been lucky enough to not have to suffer in silence. About the Author: I am Ash Durra, general video game nerd and a connoisseur of fantasy and sci-fi of all shapes and sizes. Needless to say, I am not a professional author (B.S. and M.S. in Education, 8 years teaching). After really getting into LitRPG novels over the past several years, I found my way to Royal Road, which has inspired me to use my spare time to begin writing a story of my own creation. As this is a hobby, I am not writing and posting chapters on any kind of specific schedule at the moment, though my goal is to post on average 1-2 chapters a week. I am incredibly excited to share this story with others as I write it, and I look forward to any constructive feedback about how I can improve in my writing.
