==================

Hoseok's POV

Lessons over, now it's time to go to our room. But what I'm worried that, after lessons finished Jungkook just disappeared. I didn't see him anywhere until now. No clue. No hint. No sign. Is this me or everybody start disappearing, the 'voice' and now Jungkook.

Right I'm not in the mood for going to my room, it's too boring in there. So I decided went outside. I went in to the forest. I heard it's was forbidden for student going, but I don't care I need someplace to relax.

After few hours searching place to relax, I got dumbfounded looks like I'm lost welp!,"Come here..." I heard a voice, but it's not 'it's' voice it's different. It's softer.

I followed her instructions and end up a place that have a waterfall.

I walked until the edge, and sat down. Enjoying the views of the waterfall. It's sure relaxing.....I closed my eyes slowly.

"I know right...?" I widened my eyes when I heard the soft voices, "Am I imagining things?" I mumbled. I shakes my head repeatedly,"You can see me right....?" Again that soft voice. My ears went up, I follow the sound it's lead behind me. I turned around.

Suddenly a girl stared at me closely inches away from my faces. I got shocked, making me almost fall. Oh no...."Wah!!" I screamed but the girl grabbed my hand, stopping me from falling.

"Are you alright?" She asked with her soft voice,"I'm alright, thank you for saving me..." I thanked her. After that, there's no response. She only stared at me, I admitted she's very beautiful. Suddenly she tilted her head.

"You....," She whispered quietly, but I can caught it,"Come follow me...." She said taking out her hand. Without second thought, I take out my hand too, holding her hand. Her hand is so cold, but I don't mind it.

I stood up, and she went infront of me. She raised her staff toward the waterfall, and the staff started glowing. I was amazed by her action, suddenly I felt an earthquake. I saw what's infront of me, I widened my eyes when the waterfall split in two.

Then she started walking toward the path between waterfall, pulling me with her,"Wait, wait! Where are you taking me?! I not allowed to go with strangers!" I yelled at her, trying to get out of her gripped. But she just stayed silence, still pulling me in. Looks like trying won't change the fact. I got no choice to follow her.

==================

It's been an hours and she still pulling me in deeper. Is there a dead end? I'm really confused right now, if I want to get out, it's too late for now,"Hey, where are we going?" I asked her. Surprisingly, she responded with her soft voice,"We're going to our Royal Ruins..." Still looking at the front. Royal Ruins?

Then we finally made it, it's looked so relaxing and quiet.

I frozen for a sec. Doesn't know what to do, I saw a bunch flying 'light' swarming the Tree,"We should rest first, let's not rush up things...." she said looking at me with softest smile while pulling me near the water. I sat down, while she went in the water.

"Can I ask you something? Who are you?" I asked her curiously. Then she stared at me,"My name Styx," she said,"I'm goddess of River who separates the living from the dead," she answered. I gulped when she said "dead". I silence for a minute.

The she continued,"I called you because you're the only one who can see me..." She said with her sad voice,"What do you mean?" I asked her then she looked down.
