"...and I also stopped using my powers." Night finished.

Zia looked at her with her eyes filled with sadness. Night didn't want Zia to look at her with pity. Night had refrained herself from sharing the incident with Zia cause she knew how Zia would react.

"How long ago was it?" Zia asked after a moment of silence.

"Five or six years." Night shrugged.

"How did you survive this long?" asked Zia, her eyes wide.

"Monsters didn't start attacking me until recently. So everything was normal, at least as normal as it could be."

Night hoped Zia would take the hint and drop the topic. She didn't want to talk about it anymore.

"Okay." Zia said. "Are you hungry?" Changing the topic.

"Yeah," she sighed, removing her blankets.

"Where do you think you're going? You are not getting off this bed until you're fully healed."

"But-" Night stopped when she saw the look Zia was giving her. She looked scary, and it was best not to cross her. Night covered herself back with blankets.

"What do you want to eat?"

"Doritos?" She mumbled. She remembered seeing it in the pantry. "I was in the pantry."

Zia nodded and left to get Doritos.

Night watched her disappear. She felt a little light-hearted after sharing her biggest secret with Zia. Even if Zia knew, it didn't help Night ease the guilt.

She stared at the clock on the wall, gathering her thoughts. It was five in the morning. Jimin had healed her. She wanted to thank him the next time she saw him. She wondered what he must be doing. He must be sleeping like everyone else.

The boy with the water powers. She wondered if he was here too. Taehyung still hadn't activated his powers, or he might have during the fight. She made a mental note to ask Zia when she comes back.

Night felt weak and tired because of all the blood she lost. She sighed, it was going to take a long time to replenish all the blood. Zia won't let her come out of the bed for a few days.

Zia was taking a long time to come back. Night almost got out of her bed to find her, but remembered Zia's warning. Finally, Zia came back with a bowl and spoon.

"What is that?" Night scrunched her nose, pointing at the bowl.

"Soup."

"What happened to Doritos?"

"When I went into the pantry, I realised they are unhealthy and you also have fever so soup will help." She smiled brightly.

"You don't know how to cook." Night commented. Zia had avoided cooking, saying she doesn't know who to. Night wasn't ready to hear she was lying.

"I don't but Hoseok helped me. He searched how to make soup online." she continued in the same cheerful tone.

Night understood why Zia was in such a good mood. Zia and Hoseok were growing close. She found it very cute.

"Why are you smirking?" Zia asked Night, a blush creeping on her cheeks.

"No reason." she replied, trying not to smile. This made Zia blush harder.

"Eat your soup."

Night took the soup from Zia and started eating. She was starving. She finished it in five minutes and placed the empty bowl on the table side.

She touched her hair. They were stiff and dry. She took a strand and looked at it. Her blood had dried on her hair, making it look like she had gotten red highlights. She looked down to her shirt; it was ripped on her shoulder and covered in blood. She was wearing a black jacket over it. How much did she bleed? Whose jacket was she wearing?

"Whose jacket is this?" She asked Zia.

"Jimin's. He gave it to you because it was cold and your shirt was ripped."

Night could feel a warm feeling rise inside her. There were a lot of things she had to thank Jimin for.

"I need to take a bath." Night mumbled.

-

Namjoon didn't get to know the other Phenomenals properly. Hoseok had shown him a room to occupy. The villa belongs to Hoseok, he must be rich. He got up, kicking his blankets.

Ten minutes later, he walked out of his room, fully dressed.

Taehyung and Hoseok were in the kitchen eating cereal. Hoseok had buried his face in his hands and Taehyung couldn't stop laughing. His dark blue eyes lit alive.

"Hey." Taehyung cheerfully greeted him. "Want some cereal?"

"Hi. Sure." he replied.

Namjoon took a bowl and filled it with cereal. He almost overflowed the bowl with milk. Slowly, he picked the bowl with his fingertips and took it to the table, trying his best not to drop it.

"Good morning." Jungkook greeted everyone walking into the kitchen. His hair bouncing happily.

"Good morning." Namjoon, Hoseok and Taehyung responded in unison.

Jimin and Yoongi walked in. Yoongi looked like he wanted to go back to sleep. Zia also entered, fully dressed.

"Hey, did she eat?" Hoseok asked.

"She did." said Zia.

"Who?" Taehyung asked.

"Night." Hoseok and Zia answered in unison and looked at each other.

"She's awake?" Jimin asked, frowning.

"Yeah, she woke a while ago." Zia said.

"How is she feeling?" Jungkook asked.

"She's fine."

"Zia threatened Night to not leave her bed." Hoseok said.

"Poor girl." Jimin muttered, quickly stuffing his face with cereal. "Anyway, how will we find another Phenomenal?"

"How do you guys usually find Phenomenal?" Namjoon asked.

"Usually we go to places and bump into them." Zia admitted truthfully.

Namjoon frowned. How could they find people just like that?

"Psst..... Namjoon! Party." Aqua, the voice of his gem whispered in his brain.

"Party?" he asked, but Aqua didn't respond.

Namjoon sighed, he wished Aqua would stop popping in and out without giving him proper answers.

"Guys, does anyone know anything about a party?" Namjoon asked. If Aqua had mentioned it, it must be important.

"Party?" asked Taehyung.

"I might." Hoseok said, frowning. He walked out of the room and came back with a very fancy invitation. "I received this a few months ago. Almost forgot about it."

"It's tomorrow." Jungkook read out loud.

"No one else received any invitation for a party, right?" Jimin confirmed with everyone.

Everyone except Hoseok shook their heads.

"So we actually have to go to a party?" Yoongi asked, rethinking his life decisions.

"Yes." Zia assured him.

"Let's plan, then." said Namjoon. Everyone agreed.
