Chapter Text
"Rise and Shine!"
Were the first words Yoongi and Jin heard when they started waking up. But before they could even open their eyes to see who it was that was talking, they were abruptly shocked in the nape of their necks. Now the two robbers were both wide awake.
"WHAT THE FUCK!" Yoongi yelled in a harsh and angry tone
" WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?!" Jin asked just as angry
Now that they were 'properly' awake, the two looked around and noticed they were in unfamiliar territory. It seemed that they were in a small room with concrete walls with no windows, and only a bed and a side table. It was yoongi who realized first however that he didn't have full use of his limbs. He looked down and noticed that he was tied up back to back with his accomplice, Jin. The two were seated on wooden chairs and both their hands were bound behind their backs while their feet were tied together as well with thick rope. Both the men were confused until they heard the same voice from earlier speak again.
"I'm glad to see your both finally awake..."
Yoongi and Jin both looked up to see a familiar looking face with pink hair standing in front of them, holdind a tazer in one hand and wearing a confident smile.
"That means it shouldn't be a problem for you to start talking." Jimin said quite aggressivly
"What the hell is going on?! Why are we tied up like this? Where are we? And what are YOU doing here?!" jin started firing angry questions at Jimin one after another.
"None of that is important right now. Whats IS important, is that you two answer MY questions without causing any problems." Jimin said sassily enough to get Jin to quit throwing out questions for the moment.
"And why the hell would we do that?" Yoongi jumped into the conversation aggressively. He challenged Jimin with that expressionless look he wore earlier when they were talking for the first time.
Jimin paused for a moment, and then he and put one hand on the backrest of his chair and leaned in real close to yoongi's face.
"Because if you don't..." Jimin began,
"You wont ever see the light of day again." waving the tzer in front of his face
Yoongi furrowed his eyebrows and gave a nasty look to jimin.
"listen... I'm sure no one is going to miss a couple of no good robbers if they go missing. Heck, i'll probably be doing society a FAVOR by keeping you both here for the rest of your sorry lives." Jimin continued.
" WHAT THE HELL DID U JUST SAY?!" Jin Yelled at Jimin. He was pulling at the ropes and getting riled up from hearing Jimins degrading words.
"YOU BETTER SHUT THE FUCK UP BEFORE I-"
"JIN CALM DOWN!" Yoongi suddenly cut in and silenced Jin almost immediately. Jin seemed confused and a little upset that Yoongi had yelled at him.
"What?!But Yoongi he-" Jin tried to argue but Yoongi refused to hear it.
"Just be quiet will ya?" He further ordered
Jimin Was surprised by yoongis words to Jin, but he still didn't let them know know that. He kept his bad cop facade on in front of the two men. After yoongi finished ordering Jin to keep quiet, he turned and looked at Jimin with a sort of exhausted and impatient look on his face. He began to speak to Jimin and said,
"listen kid... I don't really have the luxury, or the time to be arguing and going around in circles with you alright? So lets just get this over with and ask me what you need to ask me and we can get on with our unfortunate lives."
Jimin was relieved that Yoongi agreed to answer his questions but for some reason, he still felt defeated. It was like even though he had the upper hand, he felt like Yoongi was still somehow in charge, and that just annoyed him even more. But jimin Didn't have time to be annoyed, he needed these answers now.
"That's fine with me." said Jimin
"Okay first question, who exactly are you guys?" He asked while furrowing his brows in curiosity
yoongi took a breath and then started answering,
" The names yoongi, and the guy tied up with me, well that's Jin. And its just like you said, Were just a couple of 'no-good robbers' stealing things for our own benefit. Simple as that." said yoongi, still as expressionless as ever.
"hmm..." Jimin said while giving the two a very cautious look. He crossed his arms in front of him and asked,
" Well what were you doing here? What made you decide to rob this house?"
"Well to be honest, we didn't even plan to come here in the first place." said yoongi
Jimin looked confused an waited for Yoongi to explain further
" We were planning to rob a different house, but my GENIUS partner over here wasn't paying attention and read the address wrong. That's how we ended up here in this empty neighborhood." yoongi explained.
"HEY! That wasn't my fault. If you hadn't been yelling at me, I would have read it just fine!" Jin retorted from behind yoongis back.
"Whatever, of course it would be just our luck to end up breaking into his place." Yoongi said with a sigh
Jimin had caught the exasperated tone in his voice and wondered what he meant.
"What do mean by 'his place ? '" Jimin asked with an intrigued look in his eye.
Jin was the first to speak this time and he said in an annoyed tone,
"There's a reason no one lives around here, and why robbers like us don't come near this house."
"When you say 'his ', are you talking about..." jimin started saying when yoongi cut in."
"That's right. Your little friend out there that almost knocked our brains out." He said with a look of anger. He clicked his tounge and continued talking
"Hes known in our community as someone you don't mess with under any circumstances. A lot of our colleagues would attempt to break in, only to come out traumatized a few days later. They spoke horror stories about being kept 'prisoners' and being 'relentlessly tortured' by him. Some could barely even make out complete words when they came back."
Jimin was taken back by what yoongi was telling him, he imagined men being held captive in the same room he had been and being tortured just a he had. Although in the back of his mind, he somewhat doubted the truth of Yoongis words. Even though he had gone through the exact same experiences that the men yoongi was talking about had, he still wasn't as shaken up as they were made out to be. Yes, he had been embarrassed and humiliated by Tae on more than one occasion but, he was never seriously injured like those men were. Tae could be Scary at times but he wasn't relentless.
Jimin thought to himself until he snapped back to the situation at hand when yoongi asked him directly,
"What I'm wondering though, is why your here and still so...in tact?" A sly smile forming on his face as he spoke
jimin gave a hard glare to yoongi, knowing he was trying to make the situation more uncomfortable by putting the pressure on him. He wasn't going to give in though. He simply gave a big smile back and retaliated by saying
"Well first off, I'm not some lowlife robber like the rest of you." he said as he slowly paced around the both of them, arms crossed in front of him.
"Secondly, I'm the one asking the questions here, not you. So don't get cocky."
Although he didn't look it, jimin could be aggressive when he needed to. Years of dealing with bullies helped him with that. He had thick skin and was grateful that he did in that moment.
"listen, I'm just trying to tell you the truth. You seem like a nice kid, but believe me when I say that Kim Taehyung is a psychopath." Yoongi stated bluntly.
"I heard from someone else that he was actually abused as a kid." Jin added
Jimin unfolded his arms and stopped to look at jin when he said this. This was new information to him he wasn't aware about. he spoke up and said a little shocked,
"Wait, wait, wait, what?
"Yeah, Apparently his stepdad had a little bit too much fun with him when he was a kid or some perverted shit like that if you know what I mean. Hell, if my dad pulled some shit like that when I was a kid I'm sure id be fucked up in the head too."
"Oh my god..." jimin mubled under his breath to himself
" 'Oh my god' is right." yoongi stated
"That's exactly why we need to go and get the hell out of here!" He had raised his voice now, quickly losing his patience with the conversation and being tied up.
"look, we answered your questions, now let us go. You can escape too, we wont try to take you again. Let's all just get out of here while we still can!" Yoongi said looking more anxious now than before.
jimin stayed silent for a moment, thinking about what yoongi had said and then he spoke again,
"No."
yoongis face went pale. He wasn't expecting that as an answer. He started to panick and pull at his restraints. Jin did the same as well.
"NO?? WHAT DO YOU MEAN NO?!" Yoongi yelled at Jimin.
"I have a better idea." Jimin calmly answered, unphased by their yelling.
"Your going to wait here while I go take care of some things I need to handle."
Jin was furious and screamed at jimin
"YOU BASTARD!" he was struggling hard against the wropes around his hands.
"NO you need to let us out of here!" Yoongi angrily demanded.
Jimin walked over to the nightstand next to the bed in the corner of the room and pulled out what looked like cloth and duck tape. He then walked back over to the two men and stood in front of yoongi first.
"What the hell do you think you going to do with that?" Yoongi asked bitterly .
" I just need to make sure you'll keep it down while I'm gone." jimin said indifferently.
he pulled out one of the cloths and looked towards yoongi, grabbing his chin firmly.
"GET AWAY FROM ME YOU MOTHERF-" Yoongi yelled before the cloth was stuffed in his mouth.
"mhm!" yoongi made muffled struggling noises as jimin smoothed the tape over his mouth.
Jimin did the same to Jin who ever so kindly told him to 'go to hell ' before he stuffed the cloth in and taped his mouth shut as well. When he finished he simply stood up and said to the two,
"I'll be back."
He then turned around and started walking towards the metal door, leaving Yoongi and Jin struggling and yelling in the middle of the room. Jimin needed to figure out the truth. He needed to find the answers for himself.
And he knew exactly what he needed to do to get them.
