The room they were brought to was not a room Namjoon had ever thought existed.

This kind of room was only in sci-fi movies, it wasn't supposed to be real.

And yet, they were here anyways.

The room was large, with no windows. There was a one way mirror installed in one wall, and Namjoon wondered if people were watching them right now.

There was a few operating tables, all with wrist and ankle straps on them that gave Namjoon a bad feeling, but the main part that scared him were the two large cylindrical tubes in the middle of the room.

They were connected at the top by dozens of thick black wires, which also connected back to a massive computer system, displaying data Namjoon couldn't decipher.

The tubes were large enough to fit a person.

"You...can't be serious." Namjoon stared, heart pounding as they set his cage down on a small table.

Dr. Ji took in the room proudly. "I'll go down in history for this. The first successful cloning of a human alter. Generations will know my name for centuries. Just imagine the forward leap this will bring us all in the medical and science field!"

Suga's cage was set down next to him, the assistants hurrying to unlock it and untie him.

Namjoon strained in his restraints, desperate to stop this.

"No! Stop it! You'll hurt him!" Tears raced down his cheeks. "You'll kill him!"

"I've killed others, in the past." Dr. Ji pulled out his notes. "But that was before I got the sequence perfected. I'm 99.8% sure this time it'll work."

As soon as Suga was free, Namjoon expected him to fight against the scientists, to punch Dr. Ji in the face and snap his neck, but the alter just stood there, looking to the doctor.

"Su...?" Namjoon was confused.

Dr. Ji walked over to the alter, reaching out to ruffle his hair with a chuckle. "Oh, did he not tell you? Suga honey and I have a deal."

"A deal?" Namjoon couldn't imagine the most protective alter teaming up with a man who hurt Yoongi, the person who Suga loved the most in the world.

"I let him do this to me, and if it's successful, he keeps me and let's Yoongi and the others go." Suga said.

Namjoon was horrified. "Suga- no! You can't!"

"He won't let Yoongi go. I have to do this. To protect him." Suga looked away. "Besides, I didn't want him to make this deal with Yoonie. It has to be me. Agust and Yoonji will fight and make things worse. It has to be me."

"No!" Namjoon struggled harder, hurting himself. "You don't know what's going to happen in there! It could fail! What if it kills you?"

"Yoonji will protect everyone. She cares, even though she'll never admit it." Suga smiled. "I appreciate you worrying about me, Namjoon. You were always so sweet to me."

"Suga don't!" Namjoon sobbed. "Don't!"

Suga stepped up close to the cage, reaching in between the bars to cup the students face. He gently brushed away Namjoon's tears, his touch so soft and delicate, as if he was afraid of hurting him.

"You taught me love, Namjoon. I can see why Yoongi loves you so much, you're a great man. The greatest I have ever known. If something goes wrong, or if it goes right and I never see you again, just know it was honor protecting you."

He leaned in, gently pressing his lips against Namjoon's forehead.

He lingered there for a few moments, his first kiss, and pulled back with tears in his eyes but a smile on his face.

"It's time." Dr. Ji grabbed the alters hand, leading him to one of the tubes. "Don't let anyone else take over while you're in there, understand?"

Suga nodded, determined to be strong and protect Yoongi one last time.

A portion of the glass tube opened with a hiss, and Suga stepped inside.

"No!" Namjoon was near hysterical. "NO! Please, Suga! Don't do this!"

The glass slid shut, locking the alter inside.

Dr. Ji walked over to the computer system, talking with the assistants there for a few moments, before turning to the monitor. A large red button sat on the control panel, protected from being accidentally pushed by a small glass covering.

He unlocked it and flipped the cover up, exposing the button.

Namjoon looked away, tears streaming down his cheeks. He couldn't watch his love die, he just couldn't.

Please, Jungkook, save us one last time.

"I'm going to be remembered." Dr. Ji whispered to himself, and he slammed his palm down on the button.
