LOST

Chapter 3

"You're late, You're late, for a very important date" said Jungkook who took out a pocket watch and showed the time to them.

"What date? Wait, did you lead me here?" Chorong pointed at Jungkook while slowly getting angry, if he lead her here and almost got her lost then she will burst out with anger.

Jungkook smirked then turned his back on them then went through a door "Hey wait! I'm not done with you!" Chorong ran after him and ran through the door, "Chorong wait!" Moonbin yelled to Chorong.

Chorong held onto the doorframe after almost running out the door because outside it was a large beanstalk a meter away from the door and the ground miles below them. "What is this now?!" Chorong yelled.

Moonbin went to her to see what she was saying and stated, "It's a beanstalk, look" Moonbin pointed up. Chorong looked at what he was pointing at and found Jungkook looking down on them from a high part of the Beanstalk.

"You!" She pointed at him and jumped onto the beanstalk, Moonbin followed behind her. Chorong moved quickly, grabbing one vine then another. Moonbin had to watch her just in case she could slip or something and tried to stay behind her as she climbed.

Chorong finally reached the top and instead of finding clouds, they just got on the ground again. "What kind of place is this?!" Chorong was getting quite irritated but Moonbin was just getting amazed by everything and said "It must be magic" he walked around and tried stomping on the ground if it really was the ground. It was real.

They saw Jungkook again and Chorong immediately ran to him again but he turned around and went through another door. Chorong stopped running in case the other side of the door would be the same as a while ago. She slowly opened the door prepared for what she would see.

Chorong opened the door slowly and quietly and found a really hairy person in a bed with old lady's clothes and a little girl in red talking to the hairy person.

Chorong didn't want to disturb them and hunched down and walked to the other side of the room where another door stood. Moonbin on the other hand, crawled on the floor but was surprisingly very quiet in doing so, so she just didn't mind him.

Next door, Chorong quietly opened it and went through then kept the door open and waited for Moonbin to get in too.

Chorong stood up straight and looked around. Everything was dark but the stars were very visible, "where do you think we are?" Chorong was feeling weirded out now, where were they?

"You're in my town" said a voice. Chorong and Moonbin turned around and found Jungkook walking to them as he was keeping his pocket watch in his pocket.

"And where exactly is your town?" Chorong asked "In the magic portal I had lead you to in the woods ,do you not recall?" Jungkook used formal language that made her even more annoyed. "Why did you lead me here?" she gritted her teeth as she spoke. "I have my reasons that will be revealed not now, but later" Jungkook smiled "now follow me, we have a few other fairytales to visit".

Jungkook walked with an elegant posture while Chorong and Moonbin followed Jungkook from behind.

He opened a glass door and said "ladies first" she rolled her eyes and walked in first, Moonbin came in next then Jungkook closed the door behind them.

"Where are we now?" Chorong asked with some politeness "Wasn't the glass door a dead give-away?" Jungkook raised his eyebrows at her and Moonbin said "Oooh, we're in Cinderella!" Jungkook nodded "that is correct". "Why are we here?" Chorong asked "We have to pick up a friend of mine, we'll go to 5 more fairy tales after this" Jungkook stated. "And who's your friend that was in the story Cinderella?" Moonbin asked eager with excitement "the Prince of course" Jungkook answered "Prince Charming?" Chorong asked "what kind of name is that? Every prince is charming,even me, his name is Park Jimin" Jungkook answered.

They finally reached a glass staircase and carefully walked up. "Did he find his Cinderella yet?" Chorong asked and Jungkook chuckled "Miss- what's your name?" "Chorong, he's Moonbin" Jungkook nodded and continued "I brought you here, because you need to finish all the fairy tales here. Well, especially the ones about a prince and a princess".

"What?!" Chorong was surprised. Jungkook raised his eyebrow "what do you mean by what? Did you think I took you all the way here just for you to have a tour around these fairy tales?".

They then reached a white door and Jungkook knocked on it 7 times. The door opened revealing a man with black hair, very pale skin, quite chubby cheeks greet Jungkook "Oh! Jungkook-ah, what brings you here? Is there another event?" Jungkook nodded his head "there is a masquerade ball where you shall pick your bride, do you not remember?". "Oh right! Gosh I hate my father, Can't I just pick a bride of my own?" Jungkook set Chorong aside behind a wall where Jimin can't spot her or Moonbin.

"Well, aren't you?" Jungkook asked "No, my father already prepared someone, I have to look for some other girl before I meet some annoying princess" Jimin groaned. "Well you're in luck, I have a maiden you might like" Jungkook motioned Chorong to come but what she was wearing wasn't fit for the century they were in. Jungkook snapped his fingers and she was wearing a long light pink puffy dress with a white ribbon around her waist, had white heels that was difficult for her to walk in and her hair was tied up in a bun.

Chorong tried to walk as elegantly as she could and nearly tripped with the shoes, luckily, Jimin ran to her as quick as he could and caught her in his arms.

"Thank you sir for catching me" Chorong said "I'll catch you again once I sweep you off your feet" Jimin smiled at her and she chuckled nervously.

He helped her back to her feet while Moonbin was fangirling behind Jungkook. "We have to say we need to go when he asks for her name" said Jungkook "Why? She'll end up with him anyway, she will be cinderella" said Moonbin "He has to dance with her at the ball not here" answered Jungkook. "But I have a question, why does she have to be the princesses, where'd the other princesses go?" asked Moonbin "there's a book of fairytales, someone erased all the maidens from every fairy tale. So while I fix it, she has to replace the maidens before it's too late" Jungkook's tone got a bit serious, scaring Moobin a bit.

"What is your name miss?" Jimin asked but before Chorong could reply, Jungkook came and said "Miss, you have a scheduled meeting in 5 mins" Chorong nodded "I apologise dear sir but I must go" Jimin bowed "I hope to see you soon".

Jungkook lead Chorong and Moonbin out of 'Cinderella' and lead them out another door. But Moonbin walked beside Jungkook and asked "what would've happened if she didn't replace the maidens in time?" Jungkook sighed "the stories will never be finished, my friends will remain a lonely life with no happily ever after and these will be stories not meant for children". Moonbin nodded "but won't the maidens look different from Chorong? They might love her more than the maidens they're meant for" Jungkook sighed again with his question "that's the problem, but we'll handle that once I've finished rewriting the maidens in the stories".

"What are you two talking about?" Chorong came and asked "Nothing" both Jungkook and Moonbin said. "So where to next?" Chorong asked happily "you sound excited" stated Jungkook. "My life was going downhill until I walked into the woods and found this great and magical place. Mr. Dog-cat, my stuffed toy, was my first and only friend. Now that's human, he can talk to me, but I think if I go back, Moonbin will return to Mr. Dog-cat" Chorong tried not to frown at all.

"Once you're done with all fairy tales, I can grant you one wish in my gratitude but there is a catch" Jungkook said "what's the catch?" asked Moonbin "Love can't be a wish granted" Jungkook said.

"Why not?" asked Chorong "Love is something too powerful that I can't even grant it" "if that's the catch then I'll be fine, I've broken up with my cheating boyfriend and don't want him back" said Chorong. "Then if you don't want to have a 'Love' related wish, do not fall in love with anyone in this world" said Jungkook. "And why not?" asked Chorong "because you still have to return to your world, and you can't take anyone with you".
