Chapter Nine

Jimin

Jumping up, I sit up right and listen close as the door to the room opened but closed quietly. Even though I wasn't blindfolded, the light from the door made me, once again unable to see, as well as still in the dark. The thick heels of a shoe clicked around the room as it closer and closer. Shuffling of clothes right in front of me.

"Ah-" I cry out surprised when something gets pushed onto my head and pressed over my eyes. A blindfold, again. I feel a hand cup under my arm as they force me to stand up, stumbling over my feet, I fall back down onto my knees; legs trembling and unable to stand. 

The person yanks me back up, not caring and just holding onto me stronger to keep me standing, even though i'm close to falling down again. They make my back press against their chest and start to move forward to force me to move. "W-Where are we going?" I whimper out, finally having some, some, feeling in my leg, actually letting me able to catch up so I don't keep stumbling around like the rag doll I felt. 

There was no answer, of course. I expected to not get one. I kept hearing doors open, be closed, be unlocked or maybe even locked. How big was this place exactly!? I heard maybe, 5 different doors. I even heard some soft voices in some of the places. I didn't want to scream, I was too scared with what would've happened.

I groan out when I was shoved into a hard chair, probably wooden, and quickly tied down onto it. My wrists and ankles tied to the arms and legs of it; tightly too. It got quiet. I could basically only hear my own heartbeat; pounding harshly in my chest. I'm waiting for it to eventually stop out of shock. I don't even want to know what's going to happen to me, I might actually die of shock. 

"...Hello-"

I flinch when I hear a loud ringing of a phone, almost like being on the end of calling someone else. No one was talking, what was happening? Then an idea popped into my head; is it one of those situations where your threatened to read cards so it seems like you're the one saying it?

The ringing stops. "..Hello?" My eyes widen under the blindfold. I yank on the restraints as a first reaction and almost start to panic.

---

"J-Jungkook!!"

"Jimin!? Yeah Jimin-ah!!"

"J-Jungkook p-please h-help me..."

"Hey listen, everything's gonna alright, okay? I promise!! I'm gonna get you back safe! I won't let anything h-happen to you..."

"...y-you promise?"

"I promise."

"Jungkook-ssi... I'm scared..."

"Do you know where you are? As in the place?"

"N-No, I don't know!! It's just... I just think it's some huge building"

There was silence on the other line for what seemed like forever. It made me really nervous. Did the person hang up the phone? Did Jungkook hang up? Did something happen to Jungkook-

"-Jimin, you need to listen to me. I need to really tell you something. You may believeme, or you might not but I'm telling you the truth"

"...what is it?"

"...I don't know if you've seen the leader, seen the person who took you, who wants you", there was a loud sigh; almost sounding nervous, "... i-its Taehyung. He's the one that kidnapped you. He wants me dead Jiminie. He won't stop TILL I'm dead"

I felt my world almost stop. What am I supposed to say. What DO you say when you're told that your best friend is the one that kidnapped you? Not even in a prank way. In a real, serious, way. "Wait, p-please tell me this is a joke, it's not real, you have the person mixed up don't you? It's not Taehyung, it can't be!"

"Listen to me Jimin! I know it's hard knowledge to swallow but you have to believe me, it IS Taehyung. You HAVE to keep away from him, as much as you can!"

"I-I don't think I can do that Jungkook, because I-I think he's been-"

My eyes widen when a hand claps over my mouth roughly. The hand that belongs to the person, not giving me permission to speak. ...I-Is it Taehyung?

"Jimin?" Jungkook said quietly, almost hesitant. Then I finally heard the voice. The voice that has been altered all this time to make it unrecognizable. I can now hear it. I didn't want to believe it either. 

"You better come to me Jungkook; turn yourself in. For every moment that you are not in front of me, Jimin is going to be hurt. He will continue to be harmed until you are dead".

Said.

Taehyung.
