TORN MASK
12:50, 24 August 2023Song recommendation: Society by Pathetic.
A day before..
The city was empty, The breeze was cold, The world looked like it was stopped for a moment.. Everything was frozen up, The human beings who were not afraid to walk or run through this ground now feared the outside world, They kept themselves locked up behind the doors as the world slowly started to fall apart in to dust.
The tall male walked through the alley way, It was empty which he was glad for.. The sound of his own footsteps echoed throughout the alley way, The whole way to here all he saw was the few military officers who stood here and here, No single ordinary people other than them was around and it proved him how much humans valued their lives..
The man had his earphones plugged in as he scrolled through his social media page, The faces of their "heros" were now revealed and it started a whole chaos across the internet some of them thanking and rooting for the heros who was currently saving their lives but as expected there was a side who didn't believed in them, They hesitated to put their lives in the hands of some teenagers even after seeing everything they have done for them, They all were too selfish, They valued their stupid lives alot..
The man stared at the heros faces until it stopped across the silver head's.. The man heaved a sigh as he spoke under his breath.
"You are full of surprises.."
Suddenly the man flinched at the phone call he got, The male checked who was calling him and understanding that it was one of his friends, he picked up the call.
"Sungho did you saw the news??"
The voice from the other line spoke making sungho to respond.
"Yeah I did.."
And like that a conversation went on and once they bid their goodbye sungho shoved the phone back in to his pocket, Now music was blasting in to his ears but that was until he saw a shadow moving from the side of his eye.
The male removed one of the ear bud out of his ear as his gaze turned towards the other small path way, He turned his heels around gripping on to the side of his sweatpants as his eyes landed over the end of the other alley way, And there he saw a tall man grabbing on to a women's head.. She tried to let out a scream but the other hand of the man quickly made its way to close her mouth shut, The scream being muffled down, She moved around trying her best to get out of his grip but soon she ceased her struggle.. She stood there still after the man said something, Soon enough sungho saw the women turning around and bowing her head down while the male said something to her..
Sungho's breath hitched as he felt like the man turned his head towards his direction but the boy was quick enough to get out his sight, The male crouched down in between the trash cans trying to make as less of noises. After a few minutes has passed he tried to peek out and for his luck there was no one, He looked towards the end of the alley way and the man and women has now disappeared..
Present.
They were all back at the army base, The whole situation at the beach made them all grow dead tired as most of them rushed towards their bed to get some rest.. Some of them even had to get their wounds treated but no one had any serious injuries which they were thankful for.
While everyone were getting their rest there was someone who sat there with their eyes boring holes in to the black sky, Their head felt heavy at the amount of thoughts that revolved inside it, Heart clenching to a point that he could sense the sharp pain shooting through his veins.. He felt anxious, Sad, And just exhausted..
Jeongin who was walking by the hallway saw the particular male sitting outside on the flight of stairs Infront of the entrance.. The male's hair danced with the breeze that brushed against him, Jeongin was able to already sense how cold that would be as the male quickly rushed his way towards the boy..
Seungmin flinched at feeling a cloth being placed over his shoulder's, There was a sudden warmth he felt and also the familiar scent waited no moment to rush in to his nostrils.. The male looked upwards meeting eyes with the blue head, Who smiled at him softly.. For a moment seungmin just stared at jeongin but then he spoke up, asking the younger..
"What are you doing here?''
Jeongin took a seat beside seungmin as he returned the question.
"Isn't that suppose to be my question?"
Seungmin stayed silent at that as he gazed forward, Slowly pulling the jacket over to cover his body more.. Relaxing under the warmth and scent. Jeongin just sat there and observed the brunette before he slowly shoot closer to seungmin..
"What is bothering you?"
Jeongin asked making seungmin to avert his gaze back at the younger.. he didn't hesitate, Just straight up decided to open up..
''I feel like I am not gonna make it.."
Jeongin's eyes widen at that, Heart skipping a beat..
"What do you mean?"
Jeongin asked to which seungmin responded.
"I feel scared that I won't make it till the end.. And I don't wanna have my end when I still have so much regrets.. If it is to end I wanna end it with no regrets left behind.."
"What makes you think that it will end here--"
"We can't say for sure that we will survive now can we? Maybe we will win but maybe it would be with the cost of a person's life..and what if it's me--"
"Stop saying that hyung!"
Jeongin raised his voice, eyes widen with tears brimming up, His heart was beating rapidly.. He can't imagine a world without seungmin, Just hearing about it like this felt like it was crushing his heart..
"Don't you dare say something like that.. If we are gonna survive this then we are going to survive together, I am never letting you die on me, I will never let you do that.."
Seungmin stared in to jeongin's eyes, Watching tears pool up inside those pretty eyes..
"I am sorry jeongin.. I just feel so fucked up.."
And with that silence flood up, Jeongin took heavy breaths trying to calm himself down and trying to think more straight about all of this.
"But can I ask.. what is those regrets you have?"
Jeongin asked to which seungmin replied.
"Being not able to hang out with Taehyung hyung, after I left that day it was only him coming to visit me at cafes and all but we never got to live under the same roof like we used to..I never got to treat him right, My trauma made me act all cold towards him when all he wanted was some love from me.. I wanna be a better brother to him and I also wanna visit my parents grave.. I kept refusing to go there, Something was holding me behind from facing them, I have no idea why I couldn't bring myself to meet them.. I don't wanna die as a failed son and brother.. I wanna treat them better, I wanna face them with more courage, Show them that I do really love them with my whole heart.."
Jeongin listened to seungmin, Watching the male tear up, Hearing his voice shaking.. It hurts to see the older like this but then suddenly seungmin whipped his head towards jeongin, Staring deeply in to the eyes of the younger.
"And I wanna Love you as your lover for the last time if I was to leave.."
Jeongin's breath hitched at that, Silence following behind..
"I thought we were already lovers?"
Jeongin asked which left seungmin in pure shock.
"What??"
"Yeah I thought we were already lovers but I guess I never really told you that I do wanna be your lover..I didn't knew how to say it properly.."
Jeongin lower his eyes as seungmin's heart paced up but then jeongin suddenly looked back up before putting out his hand for seungmin to hold.
"I am not asking you this because you mentioned it..But I am asking you this from the bottom of my heart.. Can I be your lover?"
Seungmin held wide eyes but still took a hold of Jeongin's hand as his lips formed a smile..
"What makes you think I would reject you for you to ask that as a question.."
Seungmin asked.
"Because that's the proper way."
Jeongin answered then stopping for a moment before continuing to speak.
"And this regrets you mentioned.. I am sure you would be able to make it right before your end cause you aren't leaving this world any time soon, Hyung.. I would make sure that we would survive this no matter what.."
With that he held on to seungmin's hand more tightly and to be honest seungmin felt way more relaxed now, He felt so much better and all because of the boy infront of him..
Meanwhile..
Sungho walked through the empty Street like always, It was almost like a daily routine of his.. He had his earphones plucked in like before, Eyes roaming around the empty dark street.. The new news of the attack of another villian and seeing the footage of the villian's face made him completely sure that the male he saw yesterday was the reason behind all this evil and as the thoughts of those filled in him he suddenly felt a presence behind him..
Sungho slowly made his way to pause the music that was blasting in to his ears, He continued walking but now listening to the footsteps that followed him right behind..
Soon enough he stopped on his track making the person behind him to halt stop his motion, The man turned around looking straight in to the taller man's dead eyes, The same man he saw yesterday was now standing right infront of him, The head of the evil. He felt small under his huge figure and more importantly it was the intimidating gaze which made him feel that way.
The man was about to raise his hand to grab on to sungho's head to do the same he did to the women yesterday but sungho was quick to grab on to the male's wrist, The older man somewhat ceased his motions at that as sungho stared at him with a very weird expression.. The older male expected for fear to flash inside those youngsters eyes but rather it was filled with something dark..
"You saw me yesterday didn't you?"
Sungho questioned the older male who didn't respond at first but later gave the younger a small nod.
"You don't have to use your power against me.. I am ready to obey you.."
Sungho said to which junghoon chuckled at.
"Do you think I will trust those words that easily?"
And once again junghoon was taken back when a wide smirk spread across the raven head's face.
"Oh I would love to kill hyunjin more than you do..I would be happy to watch him lay there covered in blood, all lifeless.."
Next day.
Felix was at his room, Tidying up the bed.. The sound of the sheets rustling filled the quite atmosphere of the room, He stared ahead with no thoughts behind those eyes.. But then he flinched when he suddenly heard something hitting against the window of his room the male walked closer to the window, Now looking down to spot his boyfriend standing there looking up at him with a wide smile.
"Mother trucker you wanna pay for the windows!?"
Felix yelled at hyunjin who stood under there, Hyunjin laughed at Felix words as the male yelled back in more of a quite way but still enough for Felix to hear.
"Wanna go out?"
"Another sneak out?"
Felix asked back to which hyunjin nodded his head at, Felix chuckled softly before nodding his head. He rushed to get his jacket and phone before making his way closer to the window, He slowly climbed down the window.. while hyunjin rose his arms to grab on to felix.
"Don't drop me like last time!"
Felix whispered yell, Still thinking about the last time they sneaked out like this and they both fell on their face.
"I won't, I won't."
The long haired male assured before grabbing the male by the waist before carrying him to stand on the ground. With that Hyunjin offered his hand for Felix to take and the silver head took it, soon both of them making their way to their destination with hands clasped together.
Felix noticed the plastic bag hyunjin held in his other hand as the smaller boyfriend asked.
"What is that?"
Hyunjin looked at the bag before looking back at Felix.
"Snacks for us."
"Did you steal those again!?"
"Well duh bitch."
"I am dating a theif.."
Felix whispered under his breath to which hyunjin rolled his eyes as he said.
"Then don't eat it."
Felix laughed nervously at that as he slapped on to hyunjin's shoulder.
"Just kidding baby girl! And every bad boy needs some love--"
With that they soon managed to reach an abounded building, Right now most of the buildings were abounded but this one been abounded for years. Hyunjin rushed towards the stairs and Felix followed the male behind, It was really a colourful building, Walls painted pastel blue, some graffiti's seen around here and there making it look even more cooler.
"How did you get to know about this place?"
Felix questioned.
"One time I was chased by a dog and I decided to run up here"
The older said giving the younger a thumbs up afterwards, Felix laughed at that as they made their way up to the high building soon they reached the rooftop of it, The weather being in the cooler side today made it a very cool idea to hang out here but the last time Felix and Hyunjin sneaked out of the army base hyunjin decided to bring him to the nearest park so they could get back if anything goes wrong but he grew some balls now?
Both the boys sat down on the bare ground of the terrace as they let the wind brush past them. Hyunjin pressed the palm of his hands behind him as the boy leaned backwards, Felix stared ahead cold wind brushing against him. The atmosphere was left quite just the boys staring ahead..
Felix eyes rolled over to meet with side view of the older's face, Felix stared at it all of a sudden he was feeling uneasy.. The more he stared at hyunjin, The more the thoughts started bothering him.. Felix looked away from the older, Hyunjin was somewhat acting weird?.. Even though it all felt normal at first he saw the older being all unusual there and here.. Was there something going on with him? Something bothering him?
Felix was about to ask if the older was feeling okay but that was until hyunjin got the silver head by the chin, Hyunjin's gaze was fixed over on Felix lips as the male said in a raspy voice..
"You look really pretty today.."
Felix felt his heart beat really fast at that but it still felt somewhat weird, He had no idea what's going on, Something about hyunjin was feeling off today.. Felix was someone who observed even the smallest thing about hyunjin so he was able to notice even the slightest change in the male.
"Are you okay?"
Felix asked, Concern coating his voice while hyunjin's face moved closer, Hyunjin furrowed his eyebrows in confusion as he asked.
"Yes I am okay, What makes you ask that darling?"
Felix stared in to hyunjin's chocolate orbs while hyunjin stared back.
"Yah hyunjin!"
Changbin called out for the long haired male who was currently washing his face at one of the restroom of the army base. The long haired male looked up at the older as he responded.
"Yes hyung?"
"Did you saw felix?"
Hyunjin furrowed his eyebrows in confusion as he grabbed on to one of the paper towel before drying his hands off.
"Isn't he in our room?"
Changbin shook his head as he said.
"I didn't saw him there, that's why I asked.. They are calling us to eat."
"You can go first hyung, I will go and bring him."
Changbin nodded his head as he walked away while hyunjin made his way upstairs while dialing the male's number on his phone.
Hyunjin lips were now millimetres away from Felix's, The silver head had his eyes stairing in to the older's, Almost ready to feel those plumbs lips over his but then they both flinched as hyunjin backed away. The ringtone of the younger's phone filled their ears as Felix pulled the device out of his pocket.
Felix stopped in his motion at noticing the ID of the caller, Hyunjin was calling him.. Felix looked back up at the hyunjin infront of him as he asked.
"Did you forgot your phone back there?"
With that asked the silver head answer the call pressing the phone against his ear as he stared right at hyunjin, Who's face fell in to a weird expression..
"Heyo mop head where are you?"
The familiar voice rushed in to Felix ear, as his eyes widen.. Heart beating so rapidly that he could hear it hammer against his own ribs at that point.. Felix shaky eyes never left the hyunjin infront of him while the hyunjin on the other side of the call called out his name.
"H-hyunjin?"
Felix shaky voice called out for the other male on the phone call.
"Yes love? Where are you??"
The voice of the man on the other line answered. The hyunjin infront of him heaved a heavy sigh as he snatched the away from the frozen up Felix, Ending the call as he threw the phone across, It end up laying there on the other side of the rooftop, Gladly still not completely broken..
"This mother fucker always ruins my fun!"
The male infront of him said out loud, annoyance coating his voice. Felix slowly backed away with wide eyes while the hyunjin infront of him looked at the silver head with a wide creepy smile.. Felix stood up on his feet making hyunjin to also stand up, Now towering the younger male who looked up with shaky orbs. He fisted his hands as the deep voice of the male asked the strange hyunjin infront of him.
"Who are you?"
A wide smirk spread across the handsome features of the man infront of him, Soon he was running his own hand through the long hair of his while he responded to Felix.
"Hwang hyunjin, Your boyfriend. Don't you remember me?"
The man said Sarcasm coating his voice as felix gritted his teeth together, Anger shooting through his veins as realisation wash over him, He was deceived by the man who wore the mask of his lover. The silver head grab the taller by the collar as he yelled at the guy.
"Who the fuck are you!?"
"Aw man, I even transformed myself to the man you love and yet you can't love me?? You don't know how happy I was when I heard that you also have a crush on me but then this jerk Hwang fucking hyunjin decided to come in our way, He stole something which was suppose to be mine and he really thinks he can just live on like that''
All those words the male spat out was making Felix confusions to grow bigger.. Felix crush..? It can't be him.. There is no way it's him.. That's what he thought as he stared in to the eyes of the new villain who seems to have romantic interest in him..
Suddenly there was a glow from his eyes which almost blinded Felix, The silver head pushed himself away from the male, Looking away as he rubbed over his eyes, Afterwards he looked back at the same man but now the face of his boyfriend was replaced by someone else..
Jeon Sungho..
"You seem pretty surprised there darling.."
The raven head spoke with a wide smirk slapped across his face. He walked closer to Felix and the boy was unable to move away as the raven head stood right infront of him.
"Do you wanna hear something more surprising? I been in love with you for years now.. I been wanting you for forver by now but God damn things kept on getting between us, The moment I heard that Hyunjin was bothering you I decided to help you by spreading that rumour and I thought that would be enough to break him but then you decided to play the good guy and solve that shit by yourself, No matter what I do, I was always fucking neglected.. All you saw was that low piece of shit."
At this point rage was filling up inside felix, veins popping up his neck as his eyes turned sharp, So much negative emotions being highlighted inside those brown eyes of the younger boy.
"Now I got the chance to have this inhuman powers, and this would be enough to kill him, I won't let him live, I would make him suffer and I would make him suffer right infront of you so you could feel the fucking pain--"
And with that Felix was no more able to control it, There is no way he is gonna just stand there and watch someone lay hands on his boy or even say something like this so with all the force he could muster up he punched the male across the face, The hard knuckles of the freckled boy being harshly pressed against the older's face, Sungho backed away at the force of the punch, He lowered his head as blood dripped out of his nose.
Felix walked closer to sungho as he grab the man by the hair, Then kicking the male over his stomach strong enough to make him fall on his back on the floor.. The silver head Activated his quirk, His eyes turning blue as rage took over him. He hovered over the man under him as fisted his hand to land another punch but this time blue flames covering his whole fist.
"You think I would just stand there and watch you do shit to him!?"
He screamed on to the raven's face but suddenly another shot of light flashes in to Felix eyes as the male looks away, Then afterwards quickly looking back his fist flying to meet with sungho's face but Felix froze, He stopped mid way as he stare in to those familiar eyes under him.. Sungho had transformed back to hyunjin..
Felix breath hitched as he stared down with wide eyes, Hyunjin's face.. it was just his face, It's not hyunjin, It's not him! Felix tried to remind himself but the vulnerable state of the so called hyunjin was doing something to his heart he wasn't able to fire his attack, A tear drop roll off hyunjin's eyes as it resulted in the clenching sensation in Felix heart.
And like he was held under a spell, Felix slowly backs away still fighting with his brain to remind it that it's not the real hyunjin, To remind himself that this hyunjin wasn't his boyfriend.. He is just a villain but to no avail Felix still fell for it..
But then suddenly the figure of his boyfriend stood up but the sad expression over his face turned in to an evil one before he saw the male rushing towards the end of the terrace soon standing over the edge of it.
"It's not ending here, See you around Darling!"
And like that the man jumped down while Felix fell on his knees with wide eyes, How can he just let him go!? Realisation hit him like a truck as he quickly rushed to the edge of the rooftop looking down to find that man but there was no one down there..
Soon there was the noises of vehicles moving around, The quite atmosphere suddenly filled with the noises of footsteps and talkings, Felix just stared down at the same spot, being held in a daze.. For a moment Felix thought maybe sungho said and did all those as he was held under the curse of junghoon but then he remembered those eyes, They weren't pitch black like others..
The male was quick enough to turn around at the presence he felt behind him, He turned around to meet eyes with hyunjin..Once again. Hyunjin was panting heavily from running up here, After the call with Felix hyunjin came to the realisation that Felix wasn't in the best situation so they decided to track the freckled boy to here.
Hyunjin parted his thick lips apart but before he could utter a word out he was pulled down on to the ground in a matter of a second, Hyunjin hissed as his shoulder's hit harshly against the ground.. The long haired male looked up to see the silver head hovering over him, His eyes sharp and dark as it stared right in to hyunjin's eyes..The older was for sure confused as he suddenly felt the younger cupping his face with one of his hand harshly.
"F-felix what are you doing??"
Felix breathed heavily as he examined the male, He no more knew if it was hyunjin or his copy cat.. Wait can sungho copy hyunjin's quirk as well? Felix thought that would be pretty impossible as that would just make sungho's power way too powerful.. And he didn't seem to use it when Felix tried to attack him..
"Activate your quirk."
Felix command.
"What?"
Hyunjin questioned, at that Felix took a sharp breath in as the male Activated his own quirk, Letting the blue flames to rush out of the palm of his hand as he brought it closer to hyunjin making the older's eyes to grow wide and that was enough for those chocolate brown orbs to turn bloody red, Hyunjin held his arm infront of his face covering it from Felix, as red flames spread across the male's arm.. Felix blue flames met hyunjin's red ones and that led to a slight explosion or I don't know if we can call it slight as the both guys were tore apart from eachother at the force.
Felix whinced as he slowly got up, Now sitting on the ground while he started at hyunjin who copied his actions, The long haired male looked over at the silver head with furrowed eyebrows.
"What the fuck are you doing!?"
The male yelled at Felix, For a moment Felix just stared at him but then a smile was spreading across his face, The freckled male let out a soft chuckle as he got up on his legs. Hyunjin stared at his younger boyfriend in confusion, It was almost scaring him at how the silver head was acting, What has possessed this bitch?
Felix walked closer to hyunjin, Holding out his hand for hyunjin to grab. Hyunjin glanced at the Aussie's hand before averting his gaze back at the younger's face.
"Are you planning to throw me off here?"
Felix shook his head and after a bit of hesitation hyunjin finally grabbed it as Felix pulled him up.
"Bit weird that I didn't hesitated to use my quirk against you this time.."
"What?"
Hyunjin has now morphed in to the word confusion itself. Felix stared at the older's eyes with a soft smile, Holding the older's hand tightly. Suddenly another voice of a man spoke up.
"What was that loud noise? Are you guys okay?"
The owner of the voice was no one else but bang chan followed behind by Ian and a solider. Without still leaving hyunjin's hand Felix turned towards them.
"There is another villian...But I don't think so this one is under the influence of junghoon's quirk.."
Ian furrowed his eyebrows at that, Confusion filling up his eyes as the same goes to the other three people present there. The raven head spoke up, Asking more about whatever felix has just spat out.
"What do you mean?"
Ian asked making Felix to explain further, Telling them about everything that just happened a while ago.
"That doesn't seem like a quirk which junghoon would give out to one of the people who he have put under his curse, Since junghoon's quirk turns people's eyes in to those black pupiless ones a copycat can't have it because the copycat need to look exactly like their victim and those eyes ain't gonna make it possible.."
At that everyone went silent for a moment before Felix spoke up, His honey pools meeting with Ian's as the boy asked.
"Does that mean sungho is doing this all in his own will?"
"Perhaps."
Sungho was the most sweetest guy to be seen around the school.. But now as the truth is out, The mask the male have worn to hide his real intentions was down.. Under all those smiles and sweet words the male held something way more darker.. He just now appeared completely insane.
"I told you there was something fishy about that jackass!"
Minho exclaimed as they were all gathered at a room, Doing there discussions and research about Jung sungho.. The male held a pretty powerful quirk, So taking this guy down should be done as fast as possible.. Some of the military officers were there as well which made Jisung to slap Minho to shut the male down. Minho rubbed over his arm with a slight pout..
Felix and Hyunjin stood close to eachother as they stared at the computer which they were using to scan out more information about sungho. As the solider scrolled through the informations Felix remembered about the rumoured backstory of Jung sungho, Felix belived that sungho was an orphan who's family died in an accident and sungho is now taken care by his aunt, Most of them believed that was the truth but there was a rumour that it was sungho himself who killed them all.. Which just sounded funny to Felix back then, How can a small boy do that and sungho was acting like the most perfect man which made them all just believe that this was some insane rumour spread by some sicko.
"Ahh this is strange there is no sign of information about how his family has died, It just says it's an accident.."
Felix and Hyunjin looked at eachother at that as the soldier tried his best to get more information.. In the end they decided to go out to do more researches about it as the other boys stayed back at the dorm.
"Are you okay?"
Hyunjin asked the freckled boy who stared at the wall, Deep in his thoughts. He flinched back to reality as he faced hyunjin.
"I.. Do you think someone purposefully closed the case by lying it's an accident..? What if the rumour is true.."
"It's pretty clear he is insane so there is a high chance."
Hyunjin responded and to be honest for hyunjin more and more things were becoming clear, There was always something fake about the smiles sungho gave him.. And now it looks like this male is somewhat obsessed with his boyfriend.
"I guess I have to take him down before he turns more insane.."
The long haired male whispered out as the atmosphere left silent.. but that was until--
"But hey hey you hesitated to hurt me when you saw me cry?"
Hyunjin asked in a playful tone while holding a very weird facial expression.
"Bro what the fuck--"
"So you do love meee"
"Dude I am literally dating you--"
Hyunjin laughed loudly at that but Felix knew hyunjin was just being weird to lift the mood up and Hyunjin himself knew under this laugh he was holding back alot of things, The dislike towards sungho has now grew more stronger and he isn't letting that male to ever lay a hand on Felix again..
To be continued..
