“We’ll need something to drive Voldemort out of here, like a spell. But I think it might only help a little.”
Jay’s claim turned most heads to him. Others had their eyes on their books. Quite boring to him. But they need to work together. Who else knows what Voldemort could be planning on at this very moment.
“But we must work properly,” said Sunghoon, “We can not just take revenge on him like that. We will get hurt easily that way.”
“It’s not fair,” said Jung Hoseok, “where is the fun in taking down the cruelest creature alive?”
“It’s from the heart,” said Seokjin, “As Worldwide Handsome, you might as well fight what is inside, not just outside.”
Grrr, thought Jongseong, I just knew these guys were no fun at all.
Meanwhile, Jake laid down hopelessly in his bedroom. His mates Heeseung, Sunoo, and Huening Kai were concerned about his frown and downward eyes.
“Jake, you’ve been laying there all day. Let’s go…do something!” said Huening Kai.
“Kai has a point,” said Sunoo, “You’ll never smile again as you lie down like that.”
Jake sat up and said, “What’s the point! All I can think about is Y/N.”
“Everyday! It’s always that girl!” said Sunoo.
“He has a crush,” said Heeseung, “I think that is something to respect about him.”
“It’s not fair!” Sunoo snapped, crossing his arms.
“What’s really not fair is Y/N being put in jail for a crime that she could not have committed. Even though the sentencing hasn’t started yet, I really want to get her out of there.” Jake cried.
“What do we do? Voldemort may be guarding her cell. Seoul has not been doing too well since that surprising earthquake or some sort of aftershock we had yesterday.” Huening Kai responded.
Jake shot his head up out the window.
So…he came here! That explains the strange noises in the dead of the night.
“What if he actually came!” exclaimed Jake.
“That’s silly,” said Heeseung, “He isn’t allowed to enter. He has black magic.”
Jake sighed and frowned again.
“Alright, alright,” said Sunoo, “One of us can visit her. Happy?”
“Can you go, Sunoo?”
“Why me?”
“Because I don’t feel so good.”
Jake threw up a slug without a warning. It landed on top of Heeseung’s chest!
“I’ll go get the nurse!” said Huening Kai, rushing out of the dorm room.
*~*~*~*~*~*
Sunoo slowly walked to the prison chamber. He knew that visiting would cause him so much trouble. However, he knew that he needed help to heal Jake. He looked all around for Y/N.
He called out her name. Nothing. He tried again. Nothing. It seemed as though she didn’t want to see anyone at this time of day. He looked more. But there was still no sight of the accused witch. Until…
“Come to remark on me again? I’ve told you, I want no one coming in here without a warning!”
“It’s me, Sunoo!” Sunoo said, “Who said that I could remark on you or say anything unkind. I am not selfish.”
Y/N’s voice sighed.
“I am at the end of the chamber.” she said.
Sunoo brought out a flashlight and saw the lonely Y/N, curled up into a ball. He frowned sympathetically.
“How could you end up here,” he asked, “You know that witches have gone extinct already. That is if you have any relatives or anyone else at the sort. Surely you know that no one could really hurt someone that doesn’t even believe in witchcraft. Right?”
“You’re just trying to make me feel better.” said Y/N.
“I wouldn’t dare frown down upon you.”
“You wouldn’t?”
“There is no way. I don’t think so…at all.”
“If you think that way, then…I will believe you.”
Y/N fell into Sunoo’s arms. Of course, she hadn’t met him before. It didn’t take long for her to be this comforted.
The faint schoolbell rang. Sunoo suddenly let go.
“I have to go. It’s dinnertime. I’ll get into trouble staying here this long. But I’ll have Jake come back in a little bit.”
Y/N nodded.
*~*~*~*~*~*
“How is she doing?” asked Jake.
“She is doing well. But she seems a bit explosive. It could be because she hasn't been locked up somewhere unusual before.”
“I completely understand.”
Jake coughed and suddenly threw up another slug. It was as if he ate slugs and they were launched through his throat. Sunoo then laid him back down. Jake was getting worse.
Heeseung rushed back to the cell in the dungeon. He didn’t care that Y/N was not up for talking to anyone. He then grabbed onto the rails of the jailgate.
“Jake is ill!” he shouted, “You have to save him!”
“And so what if he is sick,” Y/N snapped, “I can’t get out of here! I am on probation and set to be executed!”
“But he is getting worse! He’ll die if you don’t help him!”
But Y/N rolled her eyes. Even if her soulmate was feeling so poorly, she had no care to help him. She crossed her arms and turned away with a huff. For some reason, she then repented.
“Get the key.” she instructed.
Heeseung secretly grabbed the key to the cell and unlocked it, before Y/N carefully leaped out.
“You say anything about this and I will snap you in half!” she hissed.
Trembling, Heeseung nodded her head, obviously he was slightly scared of her.
She then floated to the greenhouse. No one was there at the time. She then poured freshly cold water, plucked a mint leaf, squeezed the juice out a lemon, added some sugar and a drop of a vitamin. She applied a lid.
“This lemonade is sure to revive him,” she said, “Hurry and give this to him. I have to go back.”
“But won’t you get caught?” asked Heeseung.
“As long as no one can see me.”
Y/N then floated out of the greenhouse and back to the dungeon, where she locked herself back in.
Heeseung hurried back to Jake’s dorm room. Jake himself was laying in bed, weak and motionless. He then turned his weary head to Heeseung.
“Y/N made this,” he said, sitting down beside him, “It is a lemonade with a dash of vitamin.”
Sunoo, who was on the other side, helped Jake sit his head up, as Heeseung tilted the cup for Jake to drink the fluid. Jake took a few sips and he slowly let his body heal. His stomach stopped cramping and he didn’t feel the slugs inside anymore. He took a few more sips. By then he sat up and drank the final drops.
“How do you feel?” asked Huening Kai, standing with Sunoo.
“I…” Jake stammered, “I never knew that…Y/N knew a cure to my illness. I thought I was going to die. But…this drink saved me, even though it was a lemonade. How did she do it?”
“She told me the recipe.” said Heeseung, remembering that he was not supposed to tell anyone she had escaped.
Sunoo then laid him back down, covering him in the blankets.
“You should rest now,” he said, “Tomorrow we have school.”
“But…I miss her,” said Jake, sadly, “I want to see her again.”
“You can visit her tomorrow. I am sure she has a tutor.” said Heeseung.
“It’s not the same,” answered Jake, “I would always see her smile in class. She was happy, wild, and free. Now that she is locked up, away from the world, basically…I can’t help but feel that she has done nothing wrong.”
