⚜Invitations to your death⚜

Taehyung's POV

I blinked a few times. "Can I help you?" I asked the mailman. "A letter. The sender told specifically not to open it before you confirm that you are alone." The mailman said, handing me a very formal and old decorated envelope.

"... Alright then. Thank you." I closed the door after he left, carefully opening the letter. Who in goodness' name would send a letter like this?

To my esteemed friends,

I have required an illustrious estate through the death of a distant relative, who I've never met. I thought it only be fitting if I'd invite you all to attend a dinner party on its grounds.
It will certainly be a night to remember. However, the estate is quite peculiar. It only exists in the year 1920.
To enter its grounds you must be dressed entirely of clothing of that era. If you are carrying anything from the modern world the house will simply never appear for you.
And not only your clothing, but your attitude must reflect the time. I have included your unique characteristics on the back of this invention.
My driver will pick you up and take you on a road that can only be driven by his mysterious time-traveling automobile.
Then, almost like magic, the place will appear.

Yours truly,
Kim Namjoon.

I raised my eyebrow. This was weird. I turned the letter around nonetheless, widening my eyes at the role that had been assigned to me.

"Namjoon hyung, really?" I laughed to myself. The back of the letter said: The Explorer. Luckily I still have some old clothing from a party a few years ago.

After maybe an hour or so I was completely ready. My phone and all my electronic devices far away from my game obsessed hands and waiting for that mysterious time-traveling automobile.

Half an hour went by, and I had so many urges to grab my phone! I shot up when I heard the doorbell ring. I quickly opened the door, seeing a very old dressed man.

"Sir Kim Taehyung?" He asked. I nodded. "That's me! And you are?" "Your escort." He replied, stepping aside to reveal an old car from the 1900s. "Sir Namjoon invited you, did he not?"

"Oh, yeah he did!" I smiled. "Invitation, please." He said, holding his hand out. I quickly reached for the envelope and letter on the coffee table, quickly handing out to him.

The driver read it through quickly. "Come with me please." He said, confirming my invention. I nodded and locked the door behind him, stepping into the old vehicle.

"So this thing can't actually time travel, right?" I asked. "It can. I myself am from the 1920s." The driver replied with an amused chuckle. "Really?" "Yes, sir." He replied. "Cool!"

After two hours of asking questions and answers, I widened my eyes. A strange adrenaline rush went through my body when a large mansion came visible in my view.

A perfect front yard, and a big one too! The car stopped right in front of the house. As the driver got out, so did I. It was huge!

The driver led me inside, surprisingly a few my other friends were already inside. "Am I the last one?" I asked. "Yes." The driver replied, bowing to the other men inside.

"Taehyung! You're here too?" Jimin asked smiling. A turquoise bandana with softly colored decorated diamonds rested around his forehead with matching clothing. "How are you?" He asked, smiling widely.

We gave each other a welcome hug. "I'm doing great! Isn't it nice to see Namjoon hyung again? The guy was so busy!" I said with a sigh. Jimin nodded agreeing. "He needs some rest and relaxation. This is the perfect opportunity!"
