"What the fuck!" Jimin complains and tries to keep his head above water level. Until now, he is still confused of what was happening to him, on how he ended up being in the middle of the ocean after being sucked by the river from an enchanted forest moments ago.

Surely, this couldn't be afterlife, right?

This cannot be his never-ending punishment for killing himself when all he wants was to get away from those greedy people.

The slow exiting of adrenaline from his body is now making him feel tired and it seems luck is not on his side when one of his legs started to cramp. He could feel himself crying in desperation.

For the second time around, he wants to live so bad! He wants to get himself on the ground and get going. He hopes everything that is happening to him right now or what has happened to him has a purpose or else. But this isn't the time to plan for revenge on anyone especially if that anyone or someone is unknown.

Just when he was about to think of a plan how to save himself, he hears it again.

The screams of terrified people from the other side of the ocean caught his attention and that was when he realized, those screams were coming from a...

"Oh c'mon! Seriously?" he exclaimed, not knowing what to do, he paddled with all his might against the current to the burning Kingdom.

The cries of the people from Leukos grew louder in Jimin's ears as he got near the shore. He can see the villagers scrambling here and there, trying to save what they could. Kids clinging to their parents, some are crying, others are clueless but there are those who thinks that it is a game initiated by the elders as he could see them laughing.

Jimin mentally slapped himself.

He swore he could have touch the shore by now and got himself out of the ocean but someone isn't just letting him do just that when a powerful force landed just a few meters away from where he was, making the ocean mad

He swore he could have touch the shore by now and got himself out of the ocean but someone isn't just letting him do just that when a powerful force landed just a few meters away from where he was, making the ocean mad. He could feel his body violently being tossed around like a cloth inside the washing machine.

"Fuck you whoever the fuck you are!" Jimin yells and throws a middle finger in the air. He angrily wipes the water off his face with the palm of his hand. He almost choke by the way, thanks to the great force of bad luck.

He looks around to see if someone could help him get out of the water. Maybe if he shouts for help, someone will rescue him but all he can see are people running from here and there hurrying to do more important things than save a drowning person in the middle of chaos, burning houses, and some fireworks.

Wait... fireworks?

He looks up again and saw a couple of colorful lights being tossed around the burning kingdom like it's a plaything.

Lights that he now realized are not fireworks but rather similar to fantasy movies that involve magic like Harry Potter, The Magicians, and the likes.

"Am I at the Olympus or something? What the actual fuck," he thought.
