《"Partners"- Jin ff ✓》11
Advertisement
I was just quiet watching the whole scene going on. Jin is still holding my hand, but it is almost like a hold of nerves. It doesn't feel like an act anymore.
The other man with a sharp jawline and a long hair is just smiling. Almost like a smirk.
"Would you mind speaking to me for a moment?"- the man asked Jin.
Jins expression was changed now. He looked heavy hearted.
"No, I don't mind at all"- Jin said and both of them started to walk away. My instinct was to follow them but the man stopped me.
"Just him. I didn't ask for you, did I?"- he rudely told me and I looked at Jin. He nodded his head to give me reassurance it was okay to let him go alone, but I still worried. This whole tension between them is scary.
"Be careful, okay? Don't trust these men"- Jin said to my ear and followed the man.
Both of them disappeared in the thick layer of people, making me lose sight of Jin. I can't help but to worry.
"Here alone?"- a man behind me asked and I frowned in disgust.
"God is by my side, so don't make mistakes or he'll put you in hell. Leave me alone"- I said but the man insisted.
"You are funny, I imagine what you could-"
"She already made very clear she doesn't want you here harassing her."- Another man interrupted the pervert making him go away.
I looked at whom had protected me and my eyes grew big. Although he has a mask, I have seen his face before from up close and various times. Jeon Jungkook. I dodged my face and eyes from him so he wouldn't recognize me, but my body tensed up as I feel him gazing at me.
"I know you know me"- he said sipping on his drink as he looks to the crowd in front of him like I am.
I didn't say absolutely anything afraid he would ruin Jins and mine act.
"I'm not going to do anything. I know you chase me because it's your job to do so"- he broke silence and I now think he is reading my mind. I stayed silent again.
"You're really not going to talk?"- he said and I feel like I should talk so I won't look intimidated

"What exactly do you need me to say?"- I didn't look at him.
"Hello?"- he proposed the idea.
"I feel like we don't need introductions"- I told him since he clearly knows who I am.
"Right...thank you then"- he said and I frowned in confusion -"thank you for being by his side..."- he gave another sip on his drink.
"By whose side?"
"You know who...he may look fine on the outside and maybe he puts a smile on his face all the time, but... I know he is constantly haunted by his own demons but hides it so he doesn't need to explain anything to anyone..."
"I don't understand..."- I am more confused.
"Just tell him I don't hate him. I will never...and that I'm sorry that I failed to be what he wanted me to..."- Jungkook told me not looking once at my face and left. What just happened?...
Suddenly I was dragged out of there. I immediately recognized the kidnapper to be Jin. He took me to the car and quickly turned the engine on to ride the car. He was going really fast and I was confused.
"What happened!?"- I asked him in nerves. He is going so fast I'm afraid he'll cause my death.
"Jin!!"- I called him in desperation but he didn't answer.
I looked behind and no one was following us. Why is he acting like this??
"Jin, stop the car!!"- I said but he didn't listen -"Jin!!"- again no response. I didn't have any other option but to pull the manual break.
The car made a high pitch sound and our bodies were pushed forward. It had finally stopped. Thankfully we both had our sit belts on. I was breathing intensely as my heart is still beating as fast as the car was going.
I looked at him in disbelief and angry, but he just looked numb. He didn't have any expression on his face what so ever.
"What happened?? Why are you acting like this?!"- I asked him angrily but he didn't answer -"yah! I'm talking to you!!"
Again nothing... I took a deep breath and got out of the car to go to the drivers seat.
He looked at me with hurtful eyes but no words.

"Let's change seats"- I told him but it was almost like he was to tired to move. Because he didn't move, I tried carrying him, it was like death weight on me. I don't know what's going on but I am worried now. I put him on the passenger seat where I was and I went to the drivers seat and drove to a peaceful place.
I don't know much about places here, but I know there's a good place near where we are living. I sometimes go for a run and I found this place.
The ride there was quiet as I gave him time to think and live in his own thoughts.
We finally arrived the place and it had a beautiful view but it meant nothing to Seokjin.
"I don't know what happened but you need to tell me... I may not be your friend but I'm your partner so don't hide information from me..."- I told him but he looked outside of his window not answering me. His silence is defening me.
"Jin, plea-"
"I lost my mother..."- he said out of nowhere interrupting me. At this point I realized that this is more than just a case to him. -" She was heaven on earth. She cared for me and worked so hard, but more important... she suffered for me...all she wanted was a better life... I should have protected her."- Jin said and shedding tears.
".. I'm sorry..."- I said embarrassed to be mad at him. He lowered his head and kept on crying silently. I always have a blanket in the car and so I went to get it and put it on top of him.
He finally looked at me but he showed me a soft look different from the usual.
"We'll stay here until you feel like going home. Until then you need to warm your heart"- I told him explaining why I gave him the blanket.
His gaze didn't divert a single moment from me after I gave him the blanket.
"What?"- I asked him and he finally looked away but his head slowly came in my direction. That was when he put his head on my shoulder looking for comfort.
My eyes grew big and for some reason my heart beat fastened. I was just trying to be nice to him.
"You don't know me... I wish you would.."- he told me and I remembered his lonely wolf talk.
"Why can't I?..."-I said feeling like at this point I know him and care for him enough to be his friend.
"Because it would disappoint you..."
"That has been our relationship until now..."- I tried joking ironically and he actually smiled.
"Fine...then I would be sad...because if you knew the truth, you wouldn't let me rely on your shoulder like this...for a long time I was alone...but now, you see the bad parts of me and I feel like the lonely wolf who became friends with a bird..."
"A bird?..."
"Yes...an improbable friend..."- Jin said and I felt a soft spot in my heart. His raspy voice told me he was tired...maybe from feelings...
"you know...sometimes I feel lonely too...and unloved...but then I remember my grandmother... she took care of me so my parents wouldn't give me to the orphanage...she used to draw and paint pictures with me. She also would take me for bicycle rides although I fell most of the time...she would bake me cookies in cold weather"- I smiled at the memories -"What I mean is, even though my parents abandoned me after she died and that haunts me too...I make sure to remember who loved me...my grandmother...Don't blame yourself for anything. Instead of remembering the sad memories with your mother or what could have and could have not done, remember she loved you and cared for you...and even if sometimes you feel alone, remember she'll always walk by your side...Besides, I'm here too and now you know I understand you...So if you feel lonely, let's just meet and be lonely together..."
I don't know if my speech comforted him, but I did speak from the heart. I hate the fact he keeps all of this to himself to the point where he just gets numb from emotion...He is just a boy who pretends to be the best when he himself feels like he is the worst...Now, I got curious about him...

On the Road to Elspar (Book 1)
The year is 1329. The Huntress' War has entered its tenth year, inflaming competing nationalisms and pitting the Confederacy of Caldrein against one of the continent's superpowers, the Tenereian Union. Desperately outnumbered, the Confederacy has relied on the prowess of its famed Caldran mercenaries, with highly-trained and experienced warbands returning from foreign conflicts to the defense of their homeland, and it is on their backs that Caldrein has successfully mounted a valiant defense for a decade. But they are losing, and day by day, with all the grace of a sledgehammer, the vast Tenereian armies take one more bit of Caldran territory, one footstep at a time. Sixteen-year-old Neianne from the village of Caelon has submitted herself to Faulkren Academy, one of the centuries-old institutions established to train the next generation of Caldrein's elite soldiers of fortune, to learn the ways of wars for three years before embarking upon the defense of her country. Her dryad family once hailed from reclusive woodland communes isolated from Caldrein's complicated mainstream society, and her upbringing leaves the shy village girl unprepared to suddenly train alongside other apprentices from backgrounds as low as the dirty slums of Caldrein's cities and as high as the halls of aristocratic power. Yet the war is eroding the norms and traditions that the Caldran people have long considered part of their national mythos, and the tensions within the confederacy that have long simmered under the surface - race, class, community, identity - are slowly but surely dividing its people, and Neianne must grow and discover who she really is, even as the war that she is steadfastly training for comes to its inexorable end... On the Road to Elspar is a fantasy quest - a work of interactive fiction wherein readers get to vote on what happens next at critical junctures - that is the first entry in a story that follows Neianne of Caelon, which first began on July 20, 2016. Originally a three-part in medias res prologue to a larger story titled On the Elsparian Road, it was eventually decided that this section - which covers Neianne's three years at Faulkren Academy - become its own independent story due to length, structural, and accessibility reasons. Despite this being a reader interactive work of fiction, due to logistical and verification concerns, voting will only be counted on its thread on the forum Sufficient Velocity, where this story originally began. As such, the content here on Royal Road serves as a story-only archive. You are, of course, entirely welcome to enjoy On the Road to Elspar as a conventional work of fiction, just as you are welcome to comment, discuss, and provide critique. But if you would like to participate in the voting, then I would be honored to welcome you on Sufficient Velocity. To facilitate accessibility and to ensure the best reading experience, this story-only version of On the Road to Elspar will be updated at a periodic pace, even though further content exists, so as to not overwhelm new readers on Royal Road. If you enjoy this story, wish to binge it, and/or want to participate in voting immediately, you may of course read all additional content via the link provided above. This paragraph will be removed once the content on Royal Road catches up with what has already been posted in its original thread. Cover artwork by DreamSyndd.

Re: Dragonize
After an unexpected turn of events, Drew must now survive in a world full of challenges with life-or-death stakes. Gone are the days when the biggest problems to face were awkward small-talk at physics department luncheons or mountains of lab work; this former physicist is now adrift in an unfamiliar land without any equipment. Now, Drew's only tool (if it can be called that) is a System, which provides constant reminders of all of the things that are still out of reach for a low-level being who's just arrived in a new world. Luckily, Drew has one powerful asset when taking on the challenges of this new world: surviving violent conflict is a lot easier when you have the power of a dragon at your disposal. Still, Drew has always considered violence a last resort. Why turn to fists (or claws) when a bit of quiet consideration might expose a better path forward? Maybe a life of quiet contemplation is still within reach for this former academic researcher. ...Or maybe not. It probably won't be a life of bloodless pacifism. Additional information for those who wish to calibrate their expectations (I'm adding this based on a few comments I received from readers who feel that the story is not what they expected from a dragon-themed story): Re: Dragonize is not a power fantasy -- or at least, it's not intended to be one. Re: Dragonize is a progression fantasy starting with a protagonist who must start at the bottom (or close to it), and work gradually upwards, making incremental progress with plenty of setbacks along the way. The protagonist, as someone coming from the world of academia, tends to be cautious, methodical, and contemplative. As such, expect this story to contain more than a few digressions as the main character takes the time to pontificate on a variety of topics ranging from Newtonian physics and horology to the nature of existence and the ethical dilemmas associated with being an obligate carnivore.
