There was some off.

Yes there was. And Jungkook knew it the moment he entered the Sejong university's building. The male made his way to the locker, observing the tense atmosphere that had settled in the building like a thick blanket of fog.

The usual loud and cheerful corridors were oddly silent today, the only sound being the soft sound of footsteps and the closing and opening of the metal lockers. A soft wave of murmuring would ripple through the crowd and then disappear in the air.

No Fangirl or Wannabe bad boy approached him, even the bullies seemed to have found interest in something else.

The students had slack stances, shoulders bend and steps sluggish. The students were busy softly muttering between their own friends, not looking up or judging anyone.

Jungkook was forced to raise an eyebrow at the strange behaviour of the students. He went to his locker and swapped his key card in the locker and it swung open. He picked out the books he needed for his schedule and then shut the locker, the noise too loud in the silent corridor.

What the heck is going on ?? Is there a big important test today that I don't know about ??

Jungkook took quick, brisk steps to his class and entered the room. The place quite just like the corridor.

The male searched around the room and spotted a black-haired boy sitting at the back as usual.

He made his way to the male sat down in the seat next to him.
"Hey Jimin" Jungkook said, causing the black-haired to look up at him with a small smile.

"Hi Jk" Jimin said and stopped scribbling on his notebook.
"There is something odd in the air today" Jungkook said, not raising his voice as if he didn't want to interrupt the silence.

"Yeah..." Jimin whispered,"I'm here since morning and the students and staff are kinda off for some reason"

"There must be something—" Jungkook said with a sigh,"—anyways, any idea where the others are?"

"They will be here any moment now" Jimin said and at cue, four guys entered the class, even their faces showed the evidence that they felt what the two were feeling, the awkwardness and the tension that could be cut by a knife.

"Hey boys" Seokjin greeted as he seated himself. The other three sat down and gave small nods of acknowledgement to the younger ones.

"Hey hyungs" Jimin and Jungkook echoed.
"There is something weird today" Yoongi suddenly said and the others nodded,"—tell me that there was a murder here at night and nothing more"

The thought made Jimin shudder but he shrugged and said,"—I guess not"

They all sighed in unison and then Hoseok was about to say something when the professor entered the room and cleared her throat to get the attention of the students. The noise made the students cringe, and even the teacher seemed to be spaced out.

"Good morning students" she said monotonously, her eyes glancing out of the huge window ever now and then as if she was waiting for something. Then she continued—

"Please welcome a new student in your class" She said and a young guy entered the class.

His brown eyes scanned the class with a unnecessary precaution and he being the only person with a straight stance. His brown hair falling on his forehead with a black sweatshirt over his upper half and similar black jeans hugging his legs, feet adored with white converse highs.

"Please introduce yourself" The professor said and the male snapped into reality.

"Hey everyone—" he said in a deep voice which went rippling down the class, weirdly soothing the boys,"I'm V and I hope we'll get along"

"Thank you V, you may sit" The professor said and V gave her a curt nod before making his way where the boys were sitting.

He flopped beside Namjoon and randomly opened a book, the one with didn't even had any concern with the class right now.

The male had his eyes fixed outside the window, his gaze blank and cold as he scanned the university grounds. Namjoon thought that he should tell the younger that he had the wrong book opened but before he could say that the male already turned to the male, fixing him with the same stare.

"Can you show me around the university after this?" He asked in a voice dropped into a whisper.

But his deep voice was enough to catch the attention of the other five boys.

"I would love to" Namjoon said while giving the male a nod.
"That'll be great" V said as he turned around again to look outside the window.

Namjoon quit the idea of informing the make cause he didn't seem interested to study, he was too interested in the world outside.

Namjoon went back making notes.

"—this shouldn't be like this....." He heard V whisper to himself. Namjoon looked up at the male but he had no evidence that he said something, so the older just shrugged it off and went back scribbling in the notebook.
