It is too late when I realise that I am biting my nails and ruining my nail paint, not that I care, wait I do. It took me two hours to apply them and wait for them to dry so I could not ruin it. But it is all ruined as I keep biting them. I am nervous, too nervous, and too nervous that I feel like throwing up. Jungkook just silently drives the car to where god only knows. I am trying very hard to swallow the lump in my throat, but it seems of no use, the lump won't go away.
It is happening tonight, everything will be changed after tonight. No such things like angels and demons will exist after tonight, the world will be free from both the good and bad things, all that could ever be good or bad will be done by the hands of humans. I never understood what is the role of demons here? I mean, whatever they do is reflected to only the ones who are victims, like me, but I don't consider myself as a victim.
This was the question I asked Namjoon that day when I found out about the truth. He said what I am thinking is right, they just aim to kill the demons inside them, the one who lures them and people around them to do things that they never wish for. In return, the Satan offers them the worldly pleasure, money, fame, position, girls and what not. They found it was cool at the beginning but it took them long to understand that this is not the purpose they are here as human beings. Demons are just invading their bodies, making these innocent human beings their slaves until they find new victims when they grow old to stand up to their expectations.
But it is an unfortunate and sad fact that few people are living up to their expectation. They should understand that they could achieve all the worldly pleasure if they work for it. But what will happen after tonight? There will be no more supernatural thing anymore? The heart keeps thumping in my chest as I feel anxiety building up.
Jungkook's hand falls on my thigh and I shoot him a glance. He too is tensed I could sense it, but he doesn't shows it all, it is all behind that straight face of his with eyes focused on the barren road. It is probably midnight and we're driving to the outskirts. The setting and location of the road is telling me that he is driving back to the abandoned amusement park. Suddenly this all seems too big to me. Jungkook hand squeezes my thigh in a comforting gesture. Our environment is silent, pin drop silent with no music playing. I could hear both our breathings and my heart is beating up to my ears. Gladly his hand reaches out for mine placed limply on my lap and entwine our fingers together.
Both of us are too tensed to even speak and the situation is too awkward to reach out for the stereo, so I lay back on seat looking out of the window where I watch how Jungkook speeds up the car. By a small junction of roads, few more cars join us. And suddenly out of nowhere, Jungkook leaves my hand and grabs the steering wheel tightly speeding up the car like he is about to fly.
"What the hell is happening?" I ask and see Jungkook smirking slightly speeding up the car even more. Cars try to dodge him, but he is fast enough to drive past them. The speed is killing me, I am gonna freak out.
"They want to race." My eyes widen when he said those words and instantly feel like losing my shits. The adrenaline is rushing high and I am squealing glaring out of the window. "Fuck!" Jungkook grunts slamming his hand on the steering wheel as a car drives past him and gladly the gate of amusement park comes in view making Jungkook slow down the speed. I see the car door opens and Hobi steps out grinning broadly at his victory. These guys are really unbelievable. In a time like this, they want to perform a fucking race to kill me. Well what I can expect from boys who are still living in their twenties. Hobi's grin is making me feel at ease, he definitely radiates light through his smile.
Jungkook parks the car next to Hobi's and rest all follows his suit. Once I am out of the car, I see everyone else coming too. Jungkook walks around from his side to my and protectively slip his arm around my waist. I look up at him and give him a smile of assurance that I am fine and he just nods his head.
"I win, I decide." Hobi says after everyone has gathered around in a small circle.
"What's there to decide?" Jungkook asks from my side.
"The theme of this park." Hobi happily says and the man beside me acts as if everything from him has been taken away.
"What?" He jumps up leaving me and standing in the middle of the circle. "But I was going to decide that." He whines looking towards Namjoon who is cowering away from the youngest one's gaze.
"He insisted on it." He calmly shrugs his shoulder and Hobi throughout giggles on his own later everyone joins him too including me looking at Jungkook's whining figure.
"If you would've told me it is gotta be a fucking bet then I would've won instead of you!" he exclaims pointing towards laughing Hoseok. "I want a fair match, once again." He huffs out.
"No one wants another round Jungkookie," Hobi chuckles, "and besides my taste is better than yours." He pats Jungkook's back to which he slapped away. Jungkook is sometimes really a baby.
"Enough jokes guys." Namjoon interrupts the bickering of two. "Let's finish what we started long ago." He says and the anxiety is back again.
I suck in a deep breath and fix my eyes on the ground. Am I ready for this? It is true, these boys have been behind this since so long and finally their time to find out the lifetime result is going to show up. If something good can happen with a small contribution of my strength, then what is the problem in helping? Nodding to myself, I lift my chin up to face everyone. I am glad that Jungkook is again by my side now, his hand grabbing mine and intertwining our giving me a feeling of calmness.
"Taehyung." Namjoon points out as soon as he finishes talking with the guard of the park. This one is different from the time Jungkook and I came. Taehyung nods his head and the guard falls down on the ground lifelessly. The gates of the park opens on its own and I realise it was Namjoon as he without even touching them walks in and I follow him along with others. My mouth is agape and heart is beating wild. Replaying Jungkook's encouraging words in my mind from the nights before we met after our so called hiatus, I keep my guards up. I can do this, I am meant for this, I am capable of this, and I will make everyone proud.
"This park looks creepy." Jin comments as we walk past the giant broken rollercoaster tracks.
"It could be my place to sleep if I would've got my car inside." Yoongi groans from the background.
"Could you think of something else instead of sleeping?" Hobi asks clearly annoyed with the elder whining about sleep. According to Yoongi's nature, it is past his sleeping time.
"Could you stop thinking about bursting someone's head?" The elder retorts making Hobi close his mouth shut. "So shut the fuck up." He mumbles and Hobi frowns.
"Are we gonna do it here?" It is Jimin who quires standing in the middle of a mini ground where I opened my wings for the first time. This could be the last time for me doing so, and for all of them.
"Y/n," Namjoon calls standing in front of us. I have given him the name permanently; history teacher, with a stern and straight face looking straight at me. "Your Dad is keeping eye on the twins so you don't have to worry about anything else." I nod my head.
"What do I have to do?" I ask suddenly feeling desperate to end this all soon. Namjoon smiles at my question.
"You just need to open your wings, and rest all you will know." I stand there confused while everyone leave my side. 'Y/n, tonight's the night when all of your star signs will align in an angle to give you your strength," Namjoon informs taking me by surprise, "and tonight's the only chance to burn your wings, it is your decision at the end what you want to do with them." He smiles softly at me and I send him a nod. Jungkook brings our entwine hands up to his lips and place a kiss on my knuckles.
"You can do this princess." I nod my head trying to slide the anxiety away. Now, all the seven men are in front of me. Namjoon sends them a nod, and almost instantly, all the seven has the wings open like seven magnificent bright falcons. I gasp and stumble back when gushes of wind hit me with force. I close my eyes having difficulty in vision, and once everything comes to a halt, I open my eyes and stare dumbfounded in front of me. They are beautiful, all seven of them, makes it complete, they are magnificent. As Jungkook said, only he has golden wings, Namjoon owns silver wings and rest all have black wings, not simple black, but jet black, pure black with scriptures carved on them, as if someone has written some stories on them.
"Your turn Y/n." I get startled when Namjoon speaks. I close my hanging mouth shut and all I do is to send him a nod. Giving one more glance at seven wonders of world in front of me, I close my eyes shut. Just like Jungkook taught me last time, feel the power, this time, it didn't take me long to find the bubble of power and blissful energy inside my pit. Summoning and uttering every single confidence, I let that power and energy relish. I gasp when I feel those powers intensifying, as if someone is channelling me. The feeling is ten times magnified and I feel like I am getting high on some finest drug, it is giving me the feeling of 'I can achieve anything'.
And there I feel the weight on my back. It is as if, I know what I have to do, what I need to do. Opening my eyes, I find all the seven mouths hanging open looking at me. I know what I have to do. That's what Namjoon said, the stars will give me my eternal strength and I will know what I have to do.
*Author's POV*
Just like Y/n thought, she know what she needs to do. Tonight, the stars and moon are channelling her to become stronger, to end this. Her powers are getting intensified by every passing of second. And just like Namjoon studied, he realises that the person standing in front of him is no more their little lively and fragile Y/n, she is the angel.
Hesitation would be all written on his face as he stares into her face, straight as line. She radiates power that even he can never summon, neither his demon. All the seven demons cower in front of the holy angel, they are no more the most powerful creatures on earth, they are just another lifeless spirits who are loathing on earth like parasites.
Namjoon is the first one to fall on his knees to bow down in front of the God's angel; the rest doesn't hesitate to follow his suite. The angel's straight face cracks into a smirk when she finds all the seven demons bowing down to her. No words are needed to be exchanged she knows, she has been watching these little humans suffering since long enough. They want themselves to be free. And as much as Y/n wants to see her friends free, the angel wants that too. Friends, she reminds herself, they are her friends.
Bending her knees, she takes a dodging jump, and there she goes flying like a golden albatross. Jungkook's head snaps up and admires the woman he loves forgetting that he needs to bow his head down to stare on the dirty ground. He watches as she freely flies up on the sky caring none of the other things.
"She is summoning her strength." Jimin mumbles and by now, everyone are looking up at the magnificent figure flying with golden wings.
"Why does she have golden wings?" Taehyung asks in confusion. "It's supposed to be white just like the feather she got."
"That's because she is soulmates with a demon." Jin commented finally looking back down. Jungkook on the other hand stares up at her with heart eyes and the words of his brothers are hitting him right in the middle of his heart gracefully.
"I have heard about twinning clothes, never did I hear about twinning wings." Hoseok snorts.
"That's because the one who is channelling her is Jungkook too." Here is Namjoon providing the factual information about it. True, Jungkook feels weak, and it is now that Jimin next to him notices that the golden colour of Jungkook's wings is fading away, not only Jungkook's, but also Namjoon's. They are turning black.
Y/n shines brightly in the air, she radiates lights. And when she finally comes down, everyone is clear where Jungkook's and Namjoon's wing's powers go. Y/n's wings are brighter than before, more gold, and glistening with silver scriptures around each feather. Jungkook never dares to trail his eyes away from her. In his eyes, she looks like a god herself, he knows that all he needs to worship from today is her, not that he ever worshiped someone else before, it is just clear that she is the purest human or whatever he could think of right now and for the rest of her existence ahead.
She holds both of her hands in front of her and both Namjoon and Jungkook feel week as a frail body. They stay still on their ground, grunting and whimpering as the angel channels both of their powers after gaining strength from her star signs. Her hands emit a ball of light, so bright that even Y/n herself closes her eyes and rest all squeezes their eyes shut tightly. And there it goes, the boys whimper in pain, a kind of pain which is making their whole body to ache. It is now clear that this is happening, without anyone to intrude or anyone to interrupt. That's what Namjoon aimed for since the beginning. The day he started to drag the twin coven down, he aimed for this. And now when this is all happening too smoothly, he feels happy, delighted to be exact.
They all whimper in pain and loud screams erupt when their wings get torn apart from their bodies. They all scream at the painful impact, their demons whimper and whither and turn to smoke as the black smoke vapours out of their skins. The torn wings flying up and disappear into thin air.
On the other hand, Robert gets startled as he here screams erupting from the cell downstairs. He leaves all the paper works on the table and makes a run through the dull office down to where he held the hostages locked up. He sees them whimpering and screaming in pain as their whole body gets covered in black smokes. Black wings around them disappear into thin air. The hostages are crying and groaning as the black smoke too gets dissolved into the thin air. And there he knows, his daughter has done her work, and no father in the world could be so much proud of his daughter right now like how Robert Nelson is proud of his baby girl Y/n Nelson.
Back into the abandoned amusement park, everything is silent, pin drop silent. The screams and pain are gone, the ritual is done, and the mission is finally concluded to be successful. Y/n watches how the men lies on the ground, helpless and too weak to even stand, it reminds her that they are now nothing but mare and innocent human beings void of any powers. They are just animals who belong to the earth, to make their own heaven and hell. It is Namjoon whose head snaps up and stare at what Y/n is doing.
She clutches her hand on her chest, and closes her beautiful wings back to disappear. As if retrieving a heart out of chest, she retrieves the white glittery feather.
"What are you doing?" Namjoon asks in barely a whisper, but the surrounding is too quiet for her not to hear him. She smiles at him and instantly fire light up on the feather.
"If the demons don't belong to earth, neither do the angel."
*Y/n's POV*
My eyes open wide and I immediately shut it back close due to brightness surrounding me. Something is clutching my hand tightly, more like someone. Slowly I open my eyes and try to adjust into the brightness. I am not home, I am in a hospital? Looking to my hand, someone is holding onto it tightly and I glance at the owner of other hand, I somewhat feel calm. It is Jungkook; he is sleeping clutching my hand so tightly as if his life depends on it.
There are blue bags under his eyes as if he hasn't slept for days. His lips are white and dry, and cheeks flushed to red. I try to sit up without making any sound or much motion, but I fail miserably when Jungkook jumps on his feet with wide eyes scanning every corner of the room with alarming ears. I won't lie, the action is too cute for him, but why a hospital?
"Y/n?" his eyes finally land upon my now sitting frame, my hand is still in his hold. I give him a small smile and he cracks into a wide and hopeful grin with real heart in his eyes. "You are awake." He says and gives me no time to answer as his lips are already on mine. I get startled with his action, but respond his kiss back. When he back away, he takes my face in his hand and prep my whole face with kisses. My each eye, cheeks, nose head, temples, lips and finally ending up to my chin. "How are you feeling? Are you hurt or sore? Do you want me call the doctor, or something to eat-"
"Jungkook I am fine." I say giggling at his cute reaction. Was it really not a dream, it really happened? Did I do it? So like everything is back to normal?
"You sure?" he asks with worried look on his face.
"Yeah, but what I am doing in this hospital?" I ask. I really hate hospital and looking at the cannula on my left hand, I feel like throwing up. Needles!
"You were drained out of energy and your nose was bleeding." He informs and I nod my head at it. But I feel fine now, I don't feel anything I feel fine. "And baby, you were passed out for more than three days." Okay, this surprised me.
"Really?" he frantically nods his head. This explains why he has blue bags under his eyes and dry lips.
"Yeah, I was so worried for you. The doctor said that he cannot detect if you have internal bleeding or it is energy suspension so he kept you under the supervision." Jungkook gets interrupted when someone poked his head through the door.
"Y/n you are up!" it is Jimin who shouts and runs towards me. He spares me no mercy and engulfs me in a bone crushing hug.
"Jimin, move." I push on his chest and he complies with me happily. Then I notice everyone else. All the seven pairs of eyes are on me now and I struggle to make eye contact with each one of them.
"You did it." Namjoon declares. A soft smile dances over his lips protruding his dimples out. "You don't know how grateful I am of you Y/n. I just don't know how to thank you, the more I thank you, the more useless it sounds."
"Then don't, you shouldn't say thank you in a friendship, especially in ours." I say and see the seven men smiling an ear to ear grin.
"I love you." Taehyung blurts out.
"Hyung!" Jungkook's eyes widen as he shouts at his elder brother. I know Tae is just kidding, in a way he is thanking me. He winks at me and Jungkook whines while grabbing my fine hand in his.
"Just kidding JK." He rolls his eyes at Jungkook.
"Now leave me alone with my princess everyone." Jungkook shoos everyone out of the room and as soon as the door closes leaving us alone, he engulf me into his tight embrace. "Now nothing can come between us princess." His lips fall on the top of my head.
"Mhm... Not a single thing." I whisper back agreeing with him. Does this sound cheeky? Well that's what I like and he knows it too so Jungkook never hesitates to have these all extra cute talks. If he can talk dirty, he can definitely talk cute.
Is it a dream? It all ended. The hard work of everyone ended in just a couple of minutes, and here I am, back into the arms of my man. Was it that simple? Was it the matter of few magic and powers? How can this be so simple? I am starting to feel like all these months I was hallucinating and now I am back to normal zone.
There is not one question in my mind, there are tons of them. What was the meaning of all these to happen in my life? Just so that I could meet my soul mate? Is there even anything like that? I don't know a single thing, my mind is keep asking me questions and I just concentrate on how Jungkook's hand is running on my back. At the end of everything, I am questioning my whole life's existence.
"Was it a dream?" I slowly ask Jungkook, to make sure that I am definitely not mad. "Everything that happened or I am crazy to think that things like that even exist?" If you'd consider my question in different way, you will feel that it is quite innocent for me to ask it, but I know better than that. Jungkook chuckles and I need to think deeply if I am really a mentally ill person. He breaks the tight and warm embrace and cups my face staring deep into my eyes.
"Y/n, you have been through a lot. You need rest." And when I examine his moonless night sky like eyes, I understand that I am not a mentally ill person or mad. Just like Jungkook said, I have been through a lot and I need rest. I send him a nod and get welcomed by his beautiful smile showing off the bunny teeth. Leaning closer, Jungkook presses a kiss on my head and I close my eyes savouring the moment for eternity.
At the beginning of this series as I say, I was sitting in a bar with my friends talking about how I am feeling to join Crystal Company. I saw Jungkook there, and I never knew he was going to be really the knight in the shining armour for me. I never knew I was going to experience a world beyond just what I was seeing. That's what the world is, there is a lot to experience and explore, and we just need to see it. We need to see what the world has to offer for us, we need to live our life to the fullest without caring about anyone else. Because the beauty of world is not in what we see, it is in the things we need to see. And here, this man, is one of the beauty that world had with it to offer me.
Looking into Jungkook's eyes, I see the world in them. I know there is still a lot left for me to experience and explore in the world, and with Jungkook, I could see them all. I used to think I am gonna achieve success alone and enjoy it, but what's the party when you don't have a company? Stumbling upon Jungkook at the very end was my new start; 'The End of the New Start' has taken charge. And the beginning of my new life comes now.
"I love you." We both say it together and burst out into a fit of laughter. At the end, I would still say, never regret a single decision you take in your life, let it be good or bad, it is you who makes your life.
THE END!
Trouble ended!!!!! T_T
