Jungkook's heart was racing in his rib cage while he walked beside Jin. None of them were talking, just walking side by side.

Calm down. What if Jin sees you like this?

They received Namjoon's message. They were far away from the spaceship. But still Jungkook had an uneasy feeling in his gut. It was a lingering feeling, crawling around, giving him shivers.

"Jin, I think something is wrong."

Jin stopped and looked back at him. His coffee-brown orbs looked black under the shadows being cast on his face. His face didn't look friendly, but intimidating. His purple hair was glowing, making him look like a god.

"What?"

"I don't know how to explain it? But I feel like something has happened."

He couldn't explain the feeling, but something had happened, and it wasn't good. Someone was where they shouldn't be. And it felt like things were about to go downhill.

"Like a gut feeling?" Jin asked.

Jungkook nodded.

There was a shuffling of footsteps behind them and instinctively Jungkook ducked to not get spotted. But for a while no one appeared. In the background, he could still hear footsteps, but that also stopped.

He frowned. The noise of the footsteps he heard belong to more than a few people. So, it couldn't be any of the Phenomenal. After a while, he couldn't hear those footsteps. They must have stopped. But why would they stop?

Then it dawned on him.

They must have found someone. Which one of them was it?

Shivers ran down his spine, making him shudder. His blood was running cold, thinking about who would be held captive by the Erothian soldiers.

"Jin," he whispered. "I think the soldiers have got someone."

Jungkook was scared. He didn't know who was held in the captivity of the soldiers, but he really hoped for them to be fine. They were on a new planet, and things were already starting to go wrong.

He must have looked as scared and worried as he felt.

"Jungkook," Jin said softly, kneeling down to his level. "Don't worry, they will be fine. We will save them, okay? Don't worry."

Jin placed his warm hand on Jungkook's shoulder, which sent a tingling sensation through his entire body. Blushing slightly, Jungkook looked away. He did not want Jin to see him blush.

There was a sense of relief behind Jin's words. He had to think rationally from now. For starters, how could Jin calm him down so easily? And how can he look so good?

"Yeah," Jungkook mumbled and got up from the forest floor. He noticed the smell of tender leaves and wet mud lingering around his nose.

They stopped the soldiers and hid behind a bush. Hoseok and Taehyung were held at gunpoint, but some other Erothian weapon was pointed at them. It looked like a small spear with a hole at its tip instead of a pointed tip. Maybe the Erothians wanted to mash up a gun and a spear together. The outcome didn't look that great, but maybe was good enough for them.

"Jungkook, look there." Jin pointed to a bush opposite to them.

He could recognise the porcelain white anywhere. Night was the only person he knew with that hair colour. Crouching beside her was Namjoon. His lips were moving quickly while he told them the plan. Jimin and Yoongi were listening attentively, but their eyes never left Hoseok and Taehyung. Zia, beside Jimin, was worried. She tried to follow the plan, but she was too distracted to make sure the soldiers didn't hurt Hoseok.

Jin tried waving his arm in order to get their attention. None of them paid any attention at first, but then later noticed.

"Clout, ask them what's the plan?" Jungkook said.

The look on their face told him they got the message.

"The plan is that we spread out and attack them from different directions and stay away from their weapons. They are dangerous. Then Hoseok's and Taehyung's gems will inform them that we are gonna attack and as soon as they find a window, Night will help them escape." Clout informed him.

"The plan sounds simple enough." Jin commented.

Seeing that the other Phenomenal had moved, he and Jin did the same.

Night ducked away from the black bullet. Her heart stopped. She recognized the bullet. Another one was fired at her. She ducked just in time for it to go past her ear, barely missing it.

"Vanilla, be careful!" Jimin shouted from somewhere.

She was in the middle of a fight. She had to concentrate on it to make sure her friends stayed safe. It didn't matter whether or not she recognised the bullet if one of her friends died.

She peeked from behind the bushes. No one could see her from here, because everyone was fighting. She saw Hoseok and Taehyung trying to understand what to do.

She sprinted towards the two boys. Ducking as low as possible so the bullets don't hit her. A fire erupted in front of her, causing her to halt. The fire was roaring with hunger, trying to consume her. She could feel the heat singe the tip of her hair. It was the work of an Erothian soldier.

She would have tied her hair, but they were in a hurry in the morning.

Namjoon sprayed water over it and gave her a brief nod before turning to blast other people with his powers.

She drew her sword. It gleamed under the sun. She slashed it around the restraints, which were put around Taehyung and Hoseok. Luckily, after a few tries, it came undone.

The trio ran away, behind the trees. Hoseok started throwing fireballs, and Taehyung used his powers to make the fireball reach the soldiers standing far away.

Most of the soldiers dodged them, but the ones who got hit by the fireballs didn't seem affected by them. For them it was like a fly was irritating them.

Night had forgotten that the soldiers were Erothian. They also had powers and were wearing armour. Anything the Phenomenal would do isn't going to affect them much.

Her eyes widened. Namjoon told them there was going to be a fight and their gems were locked. Did someone interfere and lock them? What was the relation?

"Vague, is this fight a distraction?"

She got her answer when cool metal rested at the back of her head. She looked at Hoseok standing beside her. He was shocked, feeling the weird Erothian guns pressing at the back of his head.

Night wondered what the gun at the back of her would shoot if she tried to move?

-------------------------------------

{A/N}: Who's trying to shoot Night? And what's going on with Jungkook and Jin?

How's the chapter?
