{Narrative}
Namjoon has been staring blankly at the wall inside the library's quarters; He has Jin in the room along with him looking at some books and stacking a few over the table. He's been like this for about an hour and hasn't moved since.
"It's been about a month since Y/N arrived" Jin said putting a book over another on the desk
"I know..." Namjoon said not breaking his gaze at the wall
"When are we going to tell her?" Jin asked leaning on the table with five books stacked on top of it
"I honestly don't know. The girl is clearly human, which most Moon Bloods are" The Demon finally shifted from his stoned position to face the eldest
"It's rarely been other creatures, but she's more vulnerable"
"If she was an entity of magic or a blood hungry creature then i would've been less worried for her" Namjoon moves to the table Jin was leaning in
"Or something like Hoseok and Jimin" The eldest added
Namjoon sighed, "Yes. Someone who's almost a head on head to the monsters in this world, they're both human but they can be as bad as vicious monsters"
"You're making the girl sound so weak" Jin walks over to the shelves to continue looking for more books
"She's not weak nor am I saying she is. She can put up a fight, but not enough to be in combat with enemies who has murderous abilities, or anything more powerful than an average human" Namjoon crossed his arms
"Almost everything in these woods are more dangerous for an average human"
"Exactly why I'm keeping her inside the gates" Namjoon shakes his head a bit
"She can always learn. Jungkook has been working out lately and has been practicing boxing" Jin said as he flips the pages of a chosen book, "He'd be more than happy to teach her"
"Anything for her I'd reckon"
"We also have Jimin and Hoseok teach her considering they're humans too" Jin flips another page
"Maybe..." Namjoon muttered
The eldest turned around and shuts the book, "Or maybe we can leave it to you"
Namjoon raised an eyebrow, "Hyung, i can't risk having Y/N face any danger"
"But she'll have to. You're smart you should know it's necessary"
The Demon nods in understanding, but he's still questioning about it. He knows it's something that shouldn't be questioned considering the man before him has a point and it was mere common sense. But he still has something deep in his mind that makes him back away. Would it be worth it? Surely it will. But would it be worth it if he teaches?
"Namjoon-ah, you're scared it might happen again don't you?" Jin asked taking slow steps towards him
"I do have the rights to be scared, hyung. This might be an easy yes or no decision but it for sure isn't one for me" Namjoon stood straight still having his arms crossed
"I know all too well. You loved the kid, but it was never your fault"
The demon took a deep breath, "I know..." Even if those are the words that came out of him, Namjoon still doubts himself inside
"You still sound like you don't believe it wasn't"
"Partially it was. He was a wonderful kid, bright and strong, but ever since that incident, i never really taught anyone magic ever again"
"Except Jungkook"
"He's different..."
"But i saw how you love and adore him while learning. He reminds you of him"
"Yes, i admit they do have quite an explicit amount of similarities. Both are curious in their own way..." Namjoon begins to trail off, "Way too curious..."
"... Namjoon"
The demon spaced out again recalling a lot of memories. Bad memories that never left him and might never will til the end of days.
Jin completely understands his situation, it's hard for his leader to remember all those memories and no one really knew about it except for him. He knew that Namjoon will just keep blaming himself, but he couldn't talk him out of this mindset and decided to put the conversation to a close to give the demon a bit more time to think and breathe
The vampire sighed and gave in, "Alright alright, I'll leave you be"
Namjoon came back to reality and looked at Jin properly, "I apologize for the sudden dozing off"
"It's alright. I'll just continue to look for more books that was supposed to be your job if you weren't been spacing out for an hour"
'Here we go...' Namjoon said in his head as he listens to the start of the eldest's scoldings
"Do you know how time efficient would it be if you started looking with me than sitting there admiring the wall like it's the most beautiful being- Other than me- was standing there seducing you with its old classic flat of a structure!"
"Yes hyung"
"Now you're getting sad again and i couldn't talk to you properly because you were bring emo and going 'Oh yes you might not think it's not but I'm going to doubt myself either way' while i try to work my butt off to help the work you've should've done ever since you step foot at this room"
Jin's bickering continues as Namjoon just stood there listening as they consume more time as they are.
"This is going to take longer than i estimated it'd be"
But as scolding session is at place, Taehyung was behind the agape door of the library listening to his brother and their leader talk about Namjoon's past and their intentions to Y/N. He knows the conversation ended once Jin started dominating the conversation and decided to not stay for long just to listen to one breath rants.
"Hmm... Kid huh..." Taehyung said under his breath as he walks silently down the silent and dim hallway
~~~
Jimin was in his room passing a piece of cloth in the sewing machine. The mechanical engine and his faint humming is the only thing that is heard within the perimeters.
"Jimin?" Taehyung knocks at the dressmaker's door. Jimin stopped the machine to listen properly
"Jimin" Taehyung called out confirming Jimin that someone's at the door
Jimin opened his door and saw Taehyung staring back at him, "Ah Taehyung, do you need anything?"
"I heard my brother and Namjoon talked about Y/N learning to fight" The vampire said
"Interesting, but why are you here? Surely i told you that I'll remake your old suit after i finish a bunch of these orders" Jimin opens his door widely to talk to his friend properly
"I just want to know something about Namjoon"
A voice interrupted their conversation, "What about Namjoon?" The two turned around and saw Y/N holding a bag of snacks she got from the kitchen
"Good afternoon doll" Jimin smiled leaning at his doorframe
"Umm Good Afternoon" After a month of being in the mansion, Y/N got a bit used to the nicknames and Jimin's flirts considering he doesn't seem to get a break from it
"Ah, perfect timing" Taehyung pulls the girl's arm and pushed Jimin a bit to get both of them inside the room
"Wha- Taehyung" Jimin said as the vampire shuts the door, "What's this for?"
Taehyung turned to them, "I just want to know about Namjoon, and since he's talking about Y/N, we might as well include her"
"Me? What about me?" She points at herself being a bit confused
"Well for one, Jin and Namjoon are talking about how you'll defend yourself" Taehyung answered
Y/N tilts her head to the side a little, "Okay. So? What's the deal? Am I gonna get put up in a death match?"
"No but I do heard about Namjoon possibly training you but doesn't want to" Taehyung pulled a chair from the side and sits
"Is there a problem with me?" Y/N hesitantly asked considering deep inside she knows that she's always been the problem and the headache of the orphanage. So clearly, there's a lot of going on with her
"He mentioned about an incident with a kid" The vampire said
Y/N gasps and covers her mouth, "He's my real father!?"
Jimin swiftly turns his head to the girl giving a questionable look
"What? I'm an orphan which means my parents looked at me and went 'Oh look a disappointment' and was even kind enough to put me up in an orphanage instead of the dumpster to get crushed by garbage or get eaten by rats and die unknown in this miserable hell of a world"
Taehyung and Jimin falls silent and stared at her judging what they just heard
"What?" Y/N raised her eyebrow
"Back to the topic. Taehyung, I know nothing about what you're talking about" Jimin turned to face his friend. No one particularly knew about Namjoon's past except Jin, he never ought to brought it up to the other members
"But i really want to know, Jimin"
Yoongi's head appeared between the hanged clothes, "I can tell you"
The girl jumped from surprise, she got used to the pet names but not used to Yoongi suddenly appearing out of nowhere
"Ah Yoongi! I told you not to sleep there! Those clothes need to be in their best quality!" Jimin pouted
"I was sleeping by the library when i heard Namjoon and Jin talking. I was honestly a bit surprised with the story"
"Tell us" Y/N sat on the floor in front of Yoongi
"Promise not to tell anyone else because no one should've found out about this" The man warned
"Then why are you telling us?" Taehyung asked
"Because I just want to and because a story would make me go back to sleep"
Taehyung shrugged and turned his chair to face Yoongi, Jimin maintained standing and listen to what was about to be revealed
"This is what i heard when Namjoon and Jin talked, but i didn't got the entire context so this will only be a brief explanation and summary"
"Wouldn't harm to give some little details" Jimin said
"So his origin is that, Namjoon was actually a human before and practiced dark magic. He accidentally made a mistake with one of the rituals which led him to hell but actually challenged and became equal to the demons. That's when he begins to study and be fond of Demon magic before fully pledging his body and soul" Yoongi started
"We knew that already" Taehyung said
"I didn't" Y/N informed
"He then met a kid about the age of 15 that wanted to learn magic, they became so close that they call each other Brothers and hang out together"
"What's the kid's name?" Taehyung asked
"I can't remember. It was a long time ago so I barely remember all the details" Yoongi confessed
"Aww that's adorable. But what happened next?" Y/N asked
"I think the kid was practicing some spells with Namjoon, but the devil found out and decided to toy with them"
Jimin clicked his tongue while shaking his head a little, "I don't like where this is going"
"They pulled the kid down to hell"
Y/N was shocked of what she just heard. He was only an innocent kid who wants to learn magic and be with his brother figure, but those cheeky devils just had to pull him down
"He was tortured and tormented. Because he was only an amateur, his spells are pretty much just pokes than punch. He was forced to face all the monsters he feared and died brutally"
The girl covered her mouth and Taehyung raised his hand to ask a question. "What do you mean by Brutally?" Looks like the vampire wanted details
"It involves getting dismembered or going into immense pain before dying. I think he got choked by a snake while getting burned or cooked alive. That and probably more. And Namhoon witnessed it in his own eyes"
"Oh goodness..." Y/N exclaimed feeling bad for him. Imagine someone you truly love and adore get tortured and killed in front of you. Must've been a traumatic experience for the demon
"He said that the kid remind him solely of Jungkook" Taehyung chimes in
"He can remind you of any kid" Jimin chuckled softly as he teased the youngest
"It also turns out that the kid was human, so the tortures were more painful in touch and was weaker which made him lose his life not long after"
Jimin hugged Y/N with a pout, "Now you just disgraced our kind. We are not completely weak!"
"Jimin, Hoseok is human too" Taehyung said
"I know but this is the opportunity for me to hug Y/N my precious little sweetheart" Jimin smiled mischievously enjoying the snuggles
"But if you want more details, ask Namjoon or Jin, I'm going back to my nap" Yoongi slowly retracts back to the hanged clothing
"I said don't sleep there!" Jimin stood up and draw the fabrics only to see a plain wall. "He really went back to the shadows to take a snooze" He moved back to his sewing machine to go back to making his client's order
Who was the kid? What happened to him? He was tortured but why? How was such an incident led Namjoon to stop teaching magic except teaching Jungkook? A lot of questions roamed around Y/N's head, but all of it will be left unanswered until someone actually tells her
"Y/N, i think Jungkook is back by now" Taehyung's deep voice snapped her back out on reality
"He'll cling to you all day again" Jimin rolled his eyes
"You would have too let's be honest" Y/N crossed her arms
"But I can't help it! I want to keep you really really close! So close that every inch of our skin touch~" Jimin winked activating his flirt mode once again
Y/N shivered and stood up from the ground, "I think I'll go see Jungkook" The girl made her way to the door
"I'll see you soon my darling~"
Y/N closed the door without saying anything
"You love what you're doing aren't you?" Taehyung said
"Sewing? Yes. Flirting? Absolutely. Making a dress for an over dramatic client that won't shut up and has a lot of dos and don'ts like they're royalties or something? No, absolutely not. That woman irritates the hell out of me. I would have killed her if i had the chance but i do not want to get my hands dirty of a bitch's blood and i do not want you all to get poisoned"
Taehyung laughed a bit, "Tough day?"
"Oh please, she's so prideful and compliant that i just want to smash her head to a pack of needles and stab her face multiple times just to carve it open and stomp on her ugly ass face and drop a building on her body!" Jimin's eye twitch as he rants about his client
"Wow, she really irritates you huh"
"Missy, i can steal your husband without even trying don't try to fuck with me"
Taehyung sighed and went to the door to leave, "Good luck with that dress and that Karen" He said giving the raging designer one last look before closing the door
"Might as well put ants in this stupid dress. HOW THE FUCK AM I GOING TO USE THE EXACT FABRIC FROM THE MEDIEVAL ERA!? I CAN'T TIME TRAVEL BACK IN TIME! FUCK YOU KAREN! I HOPE SOME HOE KILLS YOU WITH THEIR STILETTOS!"
While Jimin was too busy ranting in his room, Y/N was making her way to greet Jungkook coming back from the hunt
"Hey Kookie, how's-"
"Y/N THEY'RE HERE!"
Suddenly, an arrow shoots pass the window barely missing Y/N's head
"What the!?" The girl exclaimed as she looked at the arrow deeply pierced into the concrete wall
Jay B came in with an evil smirk
"We're back~"
