"Umm... The chest box was brought to me by one of your guards saying that it was with me when you caught me. " Said Namjoon.
"So what is in it? " Asked Jimin while going to pick up the box.
"Don't. Don't open it" Said Namjoon loudly while snatching the box from Jimin.
"Why? What is in there? " Inquired Jimin while raising his eyebrows.
"Uh.. Umm.. I also don't know why am I stopping you. But don't open it. " Said Namjoon while looking at Jimin with big, innocent eyes.
"What do you mean by you also don't know? This is your chest, you should know. " Said Jimin confused.
"Yes, you are right. But I can't remember my name, how will I remember what is inside it? " Said Namjoon while sitting close to Taehyung.
"What? Your name was Namjoon. You clearly said that. So you just came up with that name. Did you? " Inquired Jimin. Jungkook also sat beside Namjoon both Taehyung and Jungkook squishing Namjoon between them.
" Hyung he lost all his memories. But his name is Namjoon because he has a diary where the first page had this name. And Joonie found the diary familiar so we concluded that it must be his diary. "Said Taehyung.
" What does it says in the diary? "Asked Jimin.
" So many questions for you. Huh... The writing is written in a code language. We don't know about it. We need to understand the code first. "Said Jungkook.
" Code language. Yah.... Namjoon what is so precious that you wrote it in code words? And now you don't have any memory. How will you know what I have written there? "Said Jimin while folding his hands on his chest.
" Don't worry, he has regained some memory. But mainly he doesn't remember. Need more time. The last time when we helped him, he made extra pressure on himself and fainted. That's when we decided not to pressurize him anymore. "Said Taehyung.
" How did you help him? "Said Jimin with curiosity.
" We showed him the photos that we collected and all the information about whatever we gathered about SIRIUS. He recalled some of his memories by seeing it. "Said Jungkook.
" You... You showed him our information. How dare you show our information to an outsider! "Shouted Jimin.
"He is not an outsider. The information that we showed was about his own family. How come he is an outsider? " Said Taehyung angrily.
"Alright. I can't win an argument against you two. " Said Jimin while sighing in defeat.
"Don't worry hyung. Isn't it good that Joonie regained some of his memories? When he will regain his full memory, he can be of much help to catch the one who escaped. Right? " Said Jungkook while putting his hands on Jimin's shoulder and side hugging him and taking him into a corner
"Really? Can he help us to catch the people who we were unable to catch? " Said Jimin.
"Yes. He will help us. His family mistreated him. He did not specify what they did, but that is enough for us to know that he will help us " Said Taehyung joining the two and hugging Jimin in front of the other side and giving his boxy smile.
"What are you three talking about? Is it about me? " Asked Namjoon and when they turned and looked at him he gave a wide smile that made the dimples appear.
"You have dimples!! " Said Taehyung excitedly. Namjoon nodded and again gave a smile to make his dimples visible.
" Can I touch them? "Asked Jungkook while pointing at his dimples. Since Namjoon did not say anything, Jungkook touched his dimples and he felt very happy.
Namjoon was feeling happier to see Jungkook happier. Taehyung suddenly touched Namjoon's dimple and due to this Namjoon was a little shocked and he looked in the direction of Taehyung.
" What happened hyung? "Asked Namjoon.
"I just wanted to touch you. Why? Only Jungkook can touch you? " Asked Taehyung while making a sad face.
"No hyung you can touch Joonie's dimples whenever you want. O was saying is your health okay? Your hands are cold. " Said Namjoon.
"Ahh.. Nothing just.. Little flu.. Nothing else" Said Taehyung while looking away from his brothers.
" Which time is suitable for you to say that you caught the flu, Taehyung-ssi? " Asked Jimin.
"Uhh.... I was about to tell you" Said Taehyung with a fake laugh.
"Hyung you should not ignore your health even if it is a small issue. Now for your punishment, you will not visit this cellar for four days. " Said Namjoon while looking away from Taehyung.
"Four days. That's too much. Kookie and Jiminie can meet you and then Kookie will tease me. Don't do this to me. " Said Taehyung while pouting lightly pulling Namjoon closer to him.
"Hyung I am not so interested to visit. So don't overreact and take your medicines daily. Okay? " Asked Namjoon in a low voice.
"Okay. I can't win you when you make such a cute face, I will take care of myself. " Said Taehyung while pinching Namjoon's cheek and Namjoon smiled a little.
"Taetae you should tell us. It is good that Namjoon detected your flu. Don't hide from us after this okay? " Asked Jimin. Taehyung nodded and the three boys bid farewell to Namjoon.
Taehyung took a rest, Jungkook and Jimin visited Namjoon daily and later Taehyung joined them. Their bond strengthens with the days. Namjoon tried to understand the code written in the diary. The chest box was always on his mind but he did not dare to open it. But one day his curiosity reached its peak and he opened the box. After seeing some memories flood his mind and tears flowed from his eyes. He shut the box and never liked to talk about it. He even told his hyungs to bring him a small lock and he locked his chest box.
Back to the present,
"So you are saying that he forgot his past? Isn't it more dangerous? What if when he recovers his memory he rebels against us for destroying his family and home? " Asked Yoongi a little loudly.
"No, he won't. We clearly said that he regained some of his memories and he said that his family mistreated him and he was not the real son of Byung-ho. So why would he be against us? " Said Taehyung.
"Hmm.. You are right. But we need to ask him to be specific about what happened. Maybe after he remembers his past he might remember something crucial." Said Seokjin.
"Yes, we can ask his permission. If he agrees then it will benefit both of us. Because we are searching for Byung-ho and HIM. We can find something about them. " Said Hoseok.
"Okay, let's ask him. But for now Yoongi, and Hobi I need to talk with you about some work. Come with me. " Said Seokjin. Yoongi and Hoseok looked at Seokjin confused but still nodded. The makanes went to their rooms to rest.
"What happened hyung? As far as I remember we did not leave anything to discuss. " Said Hoseok.
"There is some problem with Namjoon. " Said Seokjin with a doubtful face as he was not sure.
"What do you mean by it? We did not notice anything suspicious. " Said Namjoon.
"There is a problem with his blood. When he was doing his challenge, he cut his palm by mistake. Normally eels would be attracted to the blood and become more violent but when his blood was released in the blood the eels moved more toward the surface as if trying to move away from Namjoon. Is it normal? "Asked Seokjin while raising his eyebrows.
"How is it possible? Ahh... Now I remember. That chest box!! I saw Namjoon eat something from it. That means he knows what is in that box. We should ask him" Said Hoseok.
"Hmm... What is so secretive about that box? And according to Jimin, Namjoon said someone brought that to him the day later he was caught. Why would anyone bring the thing that he left? And the one who brought said that he saw that box was in Namjoon's hand when we caught him. But none of us saw that thing before. "Said Seokjin.
" Yeah we did not see anything because without even sparing a glance at him we send out our men to capture him," said Yoongi sarcastically as it was Seokjin's order to capture the boy with interrogation and this idea was opposed by Yoongi but no one listened to him or support him.
"Alright stop mocking me at this time. It's all my fault. I accept it. But now what? We have a good relationship with him how we will ask him about our queries? " Asked Seokjin.
"Not now. He is going through challenges. It is dangerous for us to talk anything about him and his past. We saw how he was affected when Jimin was angry with him. From what I know he is a sensitive boy. We will wait. Wait till he completes all challenges. " Said Yoongi. Seokjin and Hoseok nodded and went to see that Namjoon had joined the maknaes and they were happily cuddling each other watching a Pokemon cartoon.
" Can we start a kindergarten after we retire? See how well these babies are under our care. "Said Yoongi while showing his gummy smile to the two of them.
" Hmm.. We can... But aren't you satisfied by taking care of these four munchkins? I am not only happy but tired also. Aren't you? "Asked Hosoek.
" Don't ask me. It was Yoongi's idea. I am not going to help him. These munchkins drive me nuts. "Said Seokjin.
" Okay, okay. You are saying so sincerely but you don't listen to me so sincerely. Huh? "Asked Yoongi.
Hoseok and Seokjin looked at each other and made a small rub toward the group of boys and squeezed themselves between Taehyung and Jimin while Yoongi who watched them rushing to save their skin from him laughed and cane near them and settled himself beside Namjoon who offered him the snacks that they were eating. Yoongi gladly took and all of them spend the night peacefully watching the Pokemon series.
After some time Seokjin declared that it is time to sleep. Namjoon asked Taehyung about tomorrow's challenge but he suddenly became mysterious and said he won't tell and Namjoo will know what he has to do when they will go there. He also strictly told the others not to tell anything to Namjoon. All were confused but did not oppose and all of them retired to bed.
The next morning Taehyung was still being mysterious to Namjoon and told them that he will tell him the details in the car. And pushed him to get ready in his room. The others also were told to seal their mouths and none of them was in the mood to argue so no one said anything. All of them get dressed as usual in full black and head off to the company base.
" Tell me now, what is the challenge, what is so secretive about it? "Asked Namjoon
"Hmm.. See Joonie nothing is secretive here. Just I wanted to tell this challenge in the car. Now listen carefully. In a room, there will be a partition. On one side you will be there and you can't walk on the ground. " Said Taehyung while smirking.
"Why? There is no ground to walk. There is water. Then it's okay. I know how to swim" Said Namjoon smiling innocently.
"No, there is ground but still you can't walk. The ground is full of venomous snakes. The number is so much that you can't even see what is the color of the tiles. And that's why you can't walk. And on the side of the wall are small blocks that you can hold and make your way out. But you need to be careful one noise can make the snakes alert. Be silent while climbing towards the other side. And then get the key. Simple right? "Asked Taehyung giving his boxy smile.
" But what is there on the other side? "Asked Namjoo full of curiosity.
" There will be a vacuum chamber where the oxygen supply will be available for two minutes. After that, the person needs to be saved by opening the door that connects the two sides of the room. So the other side has nothing to do with you. "Said Taehyung.
" But why open? Who will be there? Whom do I need to save? "Asked Namjoon.
" Me. "Said Taehyung with a smile.
" What? Why will you be there? That's dangerous!! "Shouted all six boys together...........
