Words: 5.8k
It all started in Mykonos.
The group had just arrived in Greece. They were amazed by the picturesque island, with such clear and bright beaches. They were walking along the beach, looking up at all the white buildings whilst heading up the hill and trying to find their hostel quickly so they could drop their bags and see the highlights Mykonos had to offer before the sun went down and the bustling nightlife arose; jumpstarting the hearts of the young and old residents within the city.
They arrived at the Hostel, smiling politely at the receptionist. Each gave their names and were given a key before being led by a young man upstairs. The room was kind of small but there were four bunk beds, so they were lucky enough to share a room together without any strangers. Discarding their bags onto whichever bed they desired while discussing their plans, Hoseok and Jungkook wanted to freshen up, not liking the idea of feeling sweaty.
Yoongi wanted a nap and promptly face planted his bed. Jimin and Seokjin agreed they wanted food to be a priority, which soon became the general consensus even from the young man half-asleep. The group, now ready to face the island, locked their bags in the hostel and headed out onto the streets.
It was easy to lose track of time, it was like they were in a whole new world. They planned to be traveling all over Greece’s best islands for one whole week and they were going to explore everything the land, air and sea had to offer. “I want to go swimming!” Taehyung grinned, pointing to the beach.
“We can go snorkeling as well.” Seokjin patted his back and the two bumping heads affectionately.
Each person got to do everything they wanted over the next two days whether it was snorkeling, fishing or heading to the markets. Each one of them had a wonderful first few days in Mykonos and the group could feel they were about to have the most amazing night that would definitely change their lives forever.
The sun began to sink behind the water and the city twinkled, lighting ablaze one glowing light at a time. They got dressed, making sure they were looking good, they were hoping to impress. It didn’t take long following the thumping club music to find the heart of the party.
It was a beach festival, a stage was made on the sand and there were lasers, confetti, and t-shirt canons. That’s where you met them, the eccentric group of boys who made you laugh, each dancing in their own way. You had forgotten their names on multiple occasions and they looked like they were getting a little annoyed, but were too happy to care.
The night was filled with dancing and drinks, the boys partied without care. Some men handed Hoseok a fidget cube with a strange logo on it, but he was too drunk to care and gave it quickly to the Maknae to play with, wanting to dance some more. They made friends and you even scored the whole group free drinks. Seokjin won a set of light sticks from a wet t-shirt competition that flashed a multitude of colors while he headbanged to the music.
“This is the best night of my life~” Hoseok’s voice rang out over the music as you all jumped along with the bass.
One groan set off another and one shuffle caused another and soon the room was awoken from the haze which blanketed them from their consciousness.
Namjoon sighed “Can we lay in bed today?”
“Shh!” Taehyung whined.
“Someone, get coffee!” Jimin pressed his face into his pillow, “Just not me...”
A chorus of not me’s rang through the room.
“Hoseok, that means it’s you” Jungkook sighed, there was no reply so he sat up holding his stomach, fighting nausea. Slapping you on the ass making you jump. “Hoseok?”
“Nope, I am y/n” You mumbled “Where am I? How did I get here.”
“Is Hoseok up there with you?”
“No, just me” You yawned, stretching. “Hosocks isn’t here.”
“Wait what?” Namjoon groaned, pulling himself up into a sitting position as if he had just got out of a car wreck. He called Hoseok and waited, but there was no answer. He frowned “Where the hell did he go?”
“He isn’t one to stray, when he drinks he gets quiet and wants to come home.” Taehyung called, sitting up as well. Jungkook felt something poking him and, reaching for that ‘something’ in his pocket, he found the fidget cube. Unable to stop himself, the boy began aimlessly clicking the buttons. Some made sounds, others didn’t.
Jungkook messed around so much with the buttons that one of them stopped working. Frowning, he rolled the cube to the switch and, as he flicked it, he heard the audible click from the button side. Curiously going back to the buttons, they were all working again, he kept pressing them and it wasn’t long until it got stuck once more.
It took an hour before everyone was up and ready, searching for Hoseok at the hostel and the surrounding neighborhood. You had decided to help as you, like them, were a backpacker without a plan. As they continued to come up empty, they resorted to going to the police.
The police assured them that they will file the missing person case as soon as Hoseok has been missing for forty-eight hours, as it was most likely he had gone home with a young woman or even fell asleep somewhere. “Your friend will turn up around lunchtime, when he gets hungry nursing a hangover, or something, do not worry.”
The group left more than displeased by the response they were given. “I want to deck him.” Yoongi hissed, swinging his fists in the air, pissed off. They were all disappointed, really worried about their friend, they knew Hoseok was not the type to disappear and the idea of letting more time pass by just increased their anxieties. It was clear in their faces that they had a lot of emotions going on, like anger, concern and even guilt.
You had stepped out after your statement to the policeman, whose name you only remembered started with a M, to get them all something to fight the heat. Surprised they had finished giving their statements. With your arms full of small cups of frozen yoghurt. They all seemed relieved to have something refreshing, while they walked back to the hostel, exchanging ideas.
At the hostel, the boys waited. You decided to take a shower, sensing the day would continue to be stressful, it didn’t mean you had to remain sweaty or smelly. Asking politely if you could use their bathroom. You hadn’t booked a room yet in a Hostel of your own, and though it wasn’t exactly the best situation you didn’t want to use your money when this room was paid for. Plus you were not interested in leaving until the mystery of their disappearing friend was solved.
They agreed, waving you off dismissively while trying not to bite their nails in anticipation of their friends' return. While lathering yourself with body wash, you noticed there was a tiny shampoo bottle, a courtesy of the hostel. You usually liked to take these bottles, because who knew if you would need it some time on your non planned trip? So, when you finished, you slipped it into your handbag. With a towel draped over your head in a lazy effort to dry your hair you stepped out of the bathroom, the boys hadn’t moved an inch.
Lunch time passed seeing no return of their friend. Yoongi hissed, “Where is he? Those assholes said he would be back by now.”
“We could check back at the beach to see if anyone remembers him or, perhaps, he forgot where the hostel was and is waiting there for us to find him.” Namjoon said, going to grab his hat and some sunscreen. The fear in correlation to their missing friend increased every hour that he didn’t return and you could practically see the hope in their eyes, each wish he would walk through the door unharmed.
“Guys, I think you need to see this?” Seokjin called, the young man had been trying to distract his worried hands, by fiddling with his phone, but, as a result he uncovered something interesting. Five of them piled onto the bed, peeking around the eldest at the phone which was narrow in ways Seokjin was not. “This is my Snapchat, there is Hoseok, but who is that guy?”
“He gave Hoseok this fidget cube which he then gave to me.” Jungkook said, blinking at the photo, trying to regain some clarity of the previous night. The pictures showed the group but in some there were some hooded figures looking at them occasionally and even pointing at Hoseok.
The boy was walking to the bar, the figures following him with their shadowed faces. He lent over the counter and was ordering drinks when a hooded figure said he would pay for them. The next part was Seokjin, talking to the camera about how handsome he is and apologizing to the world. Suddenly Hoseok, who had been smiling by the bar in the video turned to face the group, his bright smile falling. That was it, the video blurred and cut out. Leaving the group none the wiser but with a nagging suspicion that these men had some part in this.
They all looked at their Snapchat stories, each coming up with a few different angles throughout the night. “I got something!” Taehyung announced, screenshotting the image and zooming in. “A tattoo.”
“What does it look like?” Yoongi asked. Taehyung began drawing in his sketchbook which was filled with pages of the city he had worked on the days before. He scribbled what he saw.
“What can we do with this?” Jimin sighed. “It’s a squiggle at best”
“It could help identify the men.” Namjoon nodded, slumping back onto the bed. They all watched Taehyung sketch the tattoo slowly, “It looks like some sort of wonky A”
Those words made Jungkook’s ears prick up and he took a pen quickly. He got to work sketching the symbol onto the paper.
“Like this?” Jungkook asked.
“How did you know?” Taehyung nodded, looking amazed at the symbol and Jungkook turned the fidget spinner to the side with the symbol painted on near the switch.
“Someone gave Hoseok this, maybe this is what they are after?” Jungkook asked, confused.
“A fidget cube? Really?” Yoongi scoffed.
“Who would steal someone over a fidget cube?” Jimin wondered aloud, taking the cube and shaking it about, the group froze hearing a small rattle inside. Jimin shook it again near his ear.
“There is something inside!” Jimin looked up with wide eyes.
“Break it open!” Yoongi said, getting really curious.
“No, it might break whatever it is and if it really is what they are after, that might be the only way we can get Hoseok back!” Namjoon shouted, he was a voice of reason and logical thinking. He was processing these things meticulously and trying to piece together the entire situation. “There has to be a way to open it with a series of buttons or something?”
“Wait, if I press these buttons they click in and then when I flick the switch I can use them again.” Jungkook demonstrated how he got the buttons stuck.
“It will be a sequence, you might have to do it in a specific order and that will unlock it, the switch will be the reset to start again.” Jungkook nodded, sitting on the bed and began working on the buttons, trying a few different things and occupying his time with the device.
“We can’t sit here trying to open it while Hoseok is in danger.” Yoongi said. He was clearly more of a “doing” person, really impatient.
“In movies, they will interrogate him and then, when they get what they want, they will kill him.” You muttered, while picking up your phone that had been charging while you showered. Trying to get rid of the evidence that you had been using their room and all its amenities for yourself.
“Why are you still here?” Yoongi hissed, his sharp eyes turning on you. The underlying bitterness was towards his inability to act. This wasn’t something he could control and it made him angry.
“Hey I want to help you find your friend Hospice too!” It was true you were sincere in your desire to find their friend. You had very little memories from the previous night but you remember they were such a fun group.
There was a part of you who felt responsible for finding him as you had been present that evening, the other part of you felt a morbid curiosity that needed to know what happened. It was like when someone is falling and you are frozen in place and you can’t look away even though you know it is going to be bad.
“Hoseok” Another one hissed.
“Look, I am not good with names, but I want to help.” You opened your snapchat and watched through a few videos, hoping to come up with some sort of lead towards finding their friend. A video of Hoseok being escorted out by the men caught your attention, you bit your lip looking closer and seeing a gun pressed to his back.
In the video you had registered Hoseok leaving, but hadn’t noticed the weapon, you went to claim the free drinks he had left behind planning to carry them to the rest of the group and your camera caught him being led up the beach to the car parks where he was ushered into a vehicle. Thankfully there was a street lamp two cars down that illuminated the square and you were able to catch the registration on the number plate.
“I have evidence we can show the police!” You shouted, sitting up, “I got a number plate and a video of them taking José!”
“Hoseok” Jungkook huffed.
“Yes, him too. They had a gun.” You mumbled, picking up your handbag and joining the group heading back to the police station. The boys seemed a little more antsy since now they had evidence of trouble and would, perhaps, be able to trace the number plate and find their friend.
“Hello again, Mark. How have you been?” Making a beeline to his desk you sat down causing the officer to look up from his sandwich surprised.
“I have taken your statements but I can’t do anything else until he has been missing for 48 hours.” He added with a small sigh “My name is Michael, we met this morning.”
You turned the phone to him and showed the video, “Alright, I can look into it, there was some sort of fowl play. We will look up the number plate and see who it is registered to.”
“Okay, I hear that, Miles. Let’s look up that number plate!” You recited the number plate for him watching him type away on his computer eyeing his sandwich longingly. “29THD03”
He printed the information out and slipped it into a manilla folder that had placed all the statements from earlier that morning inside. “So, when will you head out to search for him?” You pressed
“Look we have policies and procedures and we have to get a warrant before we can barge into someone's house” The officer tried to placate everyone.
“That makes a lot of sense...” You said with a flat tone, you wanted that paper, time was of the essence in these situations. “Officer Macklemore, Jeremy was wondering while you were here if you could show him the cells, he always dreamed of being a police officer... Just while you're on your way filing the info”
You had grabbed Jimin’s shoulder and gave him a look before shoving him at the officer, the two walked away Jimin pretending to listen to the officer's ramblings. You followed the menu on the printer and reprinted the previous document, folding it and slipping it into your bra. Looking up to check if anyone had seen this action you caught sight of a tiny camera on the roof and flashed a peace sign.
The guys looked at you, realizing what you had done. Jungkook went to collect Jimin, and you called across the room. “Hey, Johnathon, we got to go back to the Hostel, we decided we will wait while Officer Mckenzy gets to work.”
“Again, it’s Michael.” The man mumbled sitting back at his desk and reaching for his sandwich with an almost relieved sigh.
“Right, sorry.” You ducked your head in an effort to apologize for things you did to and behind his back and practically ran from the police station.
“What is going on?” Jimin asked with a confused face. “I have never wanted to be a police officer”
“Y/n stole the plate details.” Namjoon explained as you all got back to the hostel.
“But the officer had them with me.” Jimin raised an eyebrow. Turning to look at you with a confused expression, he didn’t see you pickpocket and the man had promptly left with the folder so it was never out of his sight.
“Keep up Jin-” You scoffed, grabbing the document from your brassier and waved the square of paper around, before stashing it away again. “I printed it of course”
“Ya! That’s my name!” Seokjin accused.
“Oh, hell yeah! I am remembering slowly.” You grinned, taking the fidget cube from Jungkook who stopped in the middle of the road. Perhaps you could have a go at the cube, everyone had been trying all day to remember the sequence. Taking your time to each discuss the combinations and which ones went in when you did what.
“We have to go to the address, we can’t wait around. Hoseok could be hurt.” Jungkook muttered. “Or he could be about to get hurt and we can’t stand around and let that happen.
“We can’t rush in or more of us will get hurt.” Namjoon sighed, understanding the youngest passion and drive when it came to protecting his friends. But there was just so much risk that needed to be assessed and properly controlled before they could even think about moving. “We have to make some sort of plan first”
“Just me, I won’t go in, I will just look around carefully,” Jungkook said firmly.
“Look I will go with him, we will just take a look and call you if it's anything urgent, ok?” Yoongi said, holding out his hand. “Look I agree, there could be a chance that something is going to happen while we are planning and we could have prevented it, they could have a gun to Hobi’s head right now”
“Hoseok” You corrected and they all turned to you shocked “I know, I know, I got it wrong again”
“No, you got it right.” Jungkook gave you a reassuring smile.
“The point is the guns that they have and we don't, do you want to get shot?”
“I know the situation and I accept the consequences” Yoongi said looking you in the eye seriously and you let out an exasperated sigh.
Reaching down your shirt handing over the paper to Yoongi matching his serious expression with a fierce gaze “Fine, Juno you better listen to Yohan.” At that point, they just gave up on correcting you.
You had made sure to take a picture of the address, grabbing Yoongi’s hand before he could pull away. “Don’t do anything stupid.” Your eyes flickered to Jungkook. “Wait for the opportune moment.”
“How will we know it’s the right moment?” Jungkook asked.
“When your only thought is what is happening in that moment and you can’t sit still because your blood is pumping so fiercely.” You spoke, “That’s the moment.”
Parting ways, the now group of four continued onto the hostel, ready to sit down and make a plan. Upon entering the hostel, you waved at the receptionist “Hello, Opal.”
“Ah, no. Wrong again.” she grinned “It is Ruby.”
“Dang, wrong again. I thought I would remember this time. Sorry, darling.” your reply sounding sheepish.
“Oh, miss y/n, that man you were all asking about this morning returned, about twenty minutes ago, Hoseok” She smiled “He just went upstairs looking for you all”
“Really?” They cheered, briskly off to their room. You guess they let him go or didn’t need him anymore perhaps it was a misunderstanding and then needed someone else.
“The fidget cube in your hand seemed unimportant and more like a piece of junk now. Either way it was time for you to collect your things, you headed after them when Ruby continued.
“Yeah, he has a tattoo on his arm, right?” She asked and you froze mid step, turning fully to question her further “A sort of Squiggly A”
All the colour drained from your face, as you proceeded to run up the stairs and down the hall, trying to cut them off before they reached the room. You emerged from the stairwell and down the corridor you saw them passing through the intersecting halls “Shit, what was your name?”
“Jin!” You shouted desperate. He stopped as did Taehyung, the two looked at you, raising their eyebrows in confusion.
You grabbed them pulling them out of the hall, “Don’t go in there, it’s not Hoseok, it’s the tattoo guy.”
“We have to tell them!” Taehyung squirmed trying to break free of your grip.
“Don’t, you will get caught as well. Just wait, okay?” You growled, holding up the fidget device “We have the cube, they won’t hurt us, because they need us alive to tell them where it is.”
“This stupid thing” Jin snatches it and began pushing buttons and turning dials maniacally before throwing it to the ground and stomping it.
The thing broke and you all shrunk down, in shock. Had he ruined the only chance of saving the boys in a fit of rage. In the small chunks of rubber and plastic you found a small electronic key with an address. You looked at each other, surprised, until and you heard talking.
“We need to go” you whispered and two figures appeared around the corner with a restrained Jimin and Namjoon. The large figures looked down at the three of you and saw the broken cube with the exposed key you were currently frozen midst reaching towards.
Snatching the key off the floor, but it was too late, they had already seen it. Your eyes emanated fear as they were reaching for their weapons, Jimin threw his head back into the man's face and kicked the other man in the balls effectively rendering them imobile for a short enough time for you and the two boys to escape.
“Run!” He shouted, The three of you regretfully left Namjoon and Jimin behind and took off running down the hall and into the stairwell.
Heading out the reception, you stopped. “Ruby, go to the police station, ask for officer Mitchel, Murphy, Maxwell, whatever his name is and say y/n sent you. He has my number.”
“Ok!” she promptly said, looking kind of confused, but too scared by the words “police station” to even question it.
You and the boys ran out across the parking lot, stopping at the valet station and, although it was a hostel, it shared a parking block with the neighbouring hotel, so you looked at the list of guests, trying to find the same number plate as the one from your phone. It took a while, being in a rush didn’t really help, but when you found it, you snatched the keys from the key hook that was labeled with the same information and Hoseok’s name.
Pressing the alarm button on the electronic car key, a sleek black car across the parking lot sounded. Racing over to the vehicle you took no time at all jumping inside.
Driving recklessly away with panic printed on your faces. Jin searched the address printed on the key and began giving you directions. After several wrong turns, the three of you successfully crossed the town and arrived at the beach. More specifically the public change rooms, there were lockers lining the walls that could only be opened by a key, luckily they were labeled making it easy to find the right one.
Before you even got a chance to open it, a man called out to you three. They were here, your wrong turns had given them time to catch up. Slipping into the women’s toilets as fast as you could and began thinking about what to do. Looking at the key, you thought of swallowing it and paled. That was definitely not a good idea, but your next thoughts were also less ideal. There had to be something you could do. Desperately searching the contents of your small handbag you found the tiny shampoo bottle. Twisting off the lid you shoved the key inside and closed it back up. Here goes my free shampoo, you thought.
You stepped out hoping you could make it without getting caught but were unsuccessful. They stepped either side of you, a gun pressed to your lower back concealed. You freezed, feeling a cold shiver run down your spine. It was pure adrenaline and fear, the top emotion of the day, you could say.
“Come with us.” The man said with a thick accent and you noticed he wasn’t Greek. They led you to a black van and pushed you inside. Jin and Taehyung were already in there, tied up and gagged.
“Where is the key?” They asked, grabbing you by your hair. It took everything not to scream from the shock of the situation and the aggressive confrontation from the men.
“I swallowed it.” You lied hoping you could throw them off for a while, the worst they could do is kill you and still come up empty for a key. Tears began running down your face from the searing pain on your scalp.
“Well, bring it back up or we will cut it out!” One of them said his breath was stronger than his heavy accent and you told them you couldn’t.
“We can wait darling, as long as we need. It will have to come out eventually.” One of them said with an evil sided grin which made him look like one of those film villains. You swallowed hard. The kidnappers started the van leaving you in the back, with two young men who looked at you apologetically.
Taken to a parking garage above a factory, you three offered little resistance, when they had tried you gave a small shake of your head in response to calm the boys. Even though you were tied up, you helped the kidnappers respectfully, knowing that the more cooperative you seemed, the more likely they were to relax their security.
Their leader was informed of your arrival as you were grouped together with Hoseok, Namjoon and Jimin. The leader was a scary man, you watched him turn to you with a cold glare. “You are a strange young lady, swallowing a key. Do you know how much it is worth?” You shrugged, not exactly knowing how to respond to that statement. “That key leads to 8 million American dollars.”
“If you let them go, I will happily give you the key.” You tried to negotiate, it was a good bargain. They got what they wanted and you got to leave.
“We cannot. Your friends would inform the police.”
“No, they wouldn’t, they don’t even know me and they don’t care. I can’t even remember their names” you said “I just needed a free place to stay and ended up drunk in their hostel.” You explained yourself, trying to be convincing. “That’s why my handbag is full of their stuff. I stole shampoo, a lanyard, I even stole narlo’s wallet. Take a look, if you want proof.”
They upturned the handbag and Namjoon gasped “You stole my wallet.”
You hadn’t the heart to tell him you actually had been picking up after the clumsy young man. He had dropped it as you were heading back to the hostel. Everyone was eating frozen yoghurt so you placed it in your bag to free your hands for eating.
“So, I will give you this key if you knock them out and dump them back at their hostel, I don’t want them finding or reporting me.” You grinned and tried to put up your best confident face.
“Or I could shoot you?” You rolled your eyes at that, but regretted that action as soon as you saw his angry eyes looking right at you, making yours widen. He was angry and you knew that he was contemplating ripping your stomach open for a key that wasn’t even in your stomach.
“Fine, I will regurgitate the key, but you have to untie me first. You over there, get me a litre of water; you, sir, find me a bucket and, hum, some tissues or a towel.” you bluffed, trying to send some of the guards away.
“I will need some sort of, uh, music playing so I can relax my throat.” You said proud of your ability to improvise in this situation. Even more surprisingly, they were all cooperative, moving to find the items. While the leader came over to untie you, Yoongi and Jungkook appeared out of nowhere hitting his head with a baseball bat, which you have no idea where they got it from, what knocked the man out, so they took his gun. You told them to hide his body and, while they did it, you finished uniting yourself.
“I didn’t steal your wallet, Namjoon. You dropped it.” You breathed, taking your phone and quickly sending officer Michael a location drop, accompanied by the words ‘hostage’ and ‘guns’. You turned the phone off and sighed, taking out the fake torch from your bag, which was actually a taser. A woman gotta be prepared, right? Especially when they are backpacking on their lonesome, you had heard about many backpacker murders and you weren’t going to be one.
When a man came back with a bucket, you acted quickly using the taser while Yoongi and Jungkook took the man away, almost getting caught when two other men came back, one with water and the other with a towel.
Yoongi had blended in, sitting with the guys and pretending to be tied up while secretly cutting their ropes. Taking your bag and shoving everything back inside, you shoved the mini shampoo bottle in your pocket.
“Can I have a cup as well? It will be easier to drink it from a cup.” One of the men had left and, at this point, you had three unconscious men and three guns. How could they be criminals if they were that imbecile? Armed, you all began your escape when two of the guards came back; you were faster to draw your -albeit stolen- weapons, but they caused quite the commotion. You guys were really lucky not to get one scratch.
There were more men coming, your hands were shaking, but you were able to take their guns quickly and run. You were running around cars and pedestrians while being chased. Screams were heard as people started to notice the guns and some bullets flying. They started to run and it helped you guys to kind of blend in. Once on the ground floor, you ran through a factory of some type of food. Dodging men and bullets, the place was manic.
Running towards shelves upon shelves of stock, you each stopped grabbing a few boxes from the stack. The stock would have been five boxes wide and four boxes high but when you quietly moved some of the stock you made a small place to stand using the boxes as a little box fort.
Soon hidden from view, alone and quiet, you hoped all the boys were safe as well. Hoseok was behind a stack of boxes across the aisle and Jin two stacks down. Other than that you knew Yoongi and Taehyung had run off together and Namjoon Jin and Jimin went of aswell.
You turned your phone on, thankful for silent mode and for having charged it before leaving the hostel. Taking no time at all to call the police officer with your trembling hands. He was probably waiting for news, as he answered quickly. He said he was on his way and it would have made you feel better and calm down, but you heard the bad men getting closer.
You cowered, not a very heroic ending you had to admit but it was safe. The police had to be here soon-
SNEEZE.
The burn in your nose from the cardboard dust caused you to sneeze quiet loudly, the footsteps grew closer and just as you thought you were toast. The police arrived, restraining and arresting all the men involved. Each emerging from their hiding spot, you ran to the group of boys. Tears running down your face because honestly you were under so much stress that you needed to release it someway.
In the midst of all the relief and left over adrenaline, you grabbed a frightened and lethargic Hoseok gently by his slightly bruised face and kissed him. He was shocked at first, definitely not expecting that. He had almost no recollection of meeting you and so to have some stranger plant a firm kiss on his lips as if to balm his wounds especially after such a traumatic event was mind boggling.
The poor guy had been through a lot. Actually not only him, but all of you. Without hesitation you turned to each of them, planting a firm kiss on their lips, shocked when some kissed back, held your waist or even when Jungkook surprised you by cupping the back of your head and kissing you before you could kiss him.
“Sorry to break up the, uh, lovely moment, but where exactly is this key?” The officer asked, scratching his head.
“She swallowed it” Jungkook gestured to you and the officer raised his eyebrows concerned but you couldn’t help but laugh.
“It is in the shampoo bottle” You emptied out the shampoo bottle and threw the valuable item to the police officer.
After everything that you guys had been through that day, it was common sense that you would be skipping the festivities on the beach that night. Instead staying inside the hostel and talking was the best option to end the day. You treated Hoseok's wounds and laid on the spare bunk. Namjoon was in a debate with Taehyung about whether a person should eat their favourite food for every meal.
You had decided to join holidays and backpack together for yours and their safety, it was all a wholesome way to spend a rather scary day. The group were planning where they would travel next when Jin stepped out of the shower and frowned “I think we are out of shampoo.”

☆INSIDE THE VENUE☆
Pretty flower stands, present boxes (there wasn’t one for Tanaka-sensei so I had to drop the fanproject off at the airport’s post office yesterday), and just outside the entrance to the hall! Lol the Mikuni and Jeje standees freaked me out I thought they were going to be special guests for a moment :’D
The pairs are standing in the position shown in the photo (Greed pair on extreme left) during the event.
☆EVENT REPORT☆ (NIGHT)
Like in the noon session, they kick started the event by playing a video with Deal With as the background music, and then introduced the pairs in order. So there were stairs on both the left and right side of the stage, and the Eves/Tsubaki entered from the left while Servamps/Subclasses from the right.
♡ Once again I didn’t really pay attention to the Sloth pair but they did some pose when they got to the center of the stage.
♡ Unlike the noon session, this time both Shimono and Horie (Lust pair) stripped half their jackets (like Lily) XD
♡ (Pride pair) Once again because Murase took some time to get down the stairs (acrophobia maybe?), Onoyuu waited in the center for Murase with open arms. He then hugged Murase’s shoulder and both of them skipped to the front!
♡ (Greed pair) As opposed to the noon session, this time BOTH Zakki and Ryohei did the Angel pose!!
♡ Melancholy trio did some gangster pose when they got to the center of the stage XD
After the introduction, the staff had to set up seats and tables etc. so the host asked the cast to move forward a little more but they moved TOO forward again like in the noon session and Ryohei (plus some others) started sexually harassing Shimono’s man boobs (鳩胸) again pffffft. Someone tried to push him off the stage from behind jokingly too (I think it was Horie) because he went like “YOU were trying to push me off the stage for real weren’t you!!?”
......Oh man from here on the Greed pair’s bond lives very strong.
☆SCENE REMINISCE CORNER☆
So for the first corner, the casts picked their favorite scene of their own character.
♡ Murase picked his entrance scene and talked about how he first met Tetsu.
♡ Onoyuu picked the scene where Hugh got trapped by Belkia (where Hugh got defeated) and asked Misono what he should do at times like these.
♡ Shimono picked the scene where Misono and Tetsu wore disguises and were trying to infiltrate the hotel. He said it didn’t make sense why he was the only one who’s favorite scene selection didn’t get shown in the same session with his respective partner’s. And I think Murase and Onoyuu’s picks had some deeper meaning (which I forgot their explanation) so Shimono was saying it was weird since he picked the scene solely because Misono was adorable there XD
♡ Greed pair both picked the scene where Licht helped/saved Lawless -the scene where he played the piano for Lawless, called him ‘Hyde” while their duet played in the background. According to both of them it was pure coincidence and amazing that they both ended up picking the same scene as when the staff let them choose one of three scenes (on different occasions), the one they both ended up choosing wasn’t even part of the three that were shown to them! Ryohei explains that this scene left a deep impression on him -Lawless went through a lot of character development and even though he’s lived many hundreds of years and looks like that, he’s actually very broken inside. And that he feels very human (even though he’s a vampire) -more so than Licht LOL.
↑ Apparently in the event pamphlet they talked more about it in the interview. I’ll translate an excerpt of it if I feel like it (and have the time..)
♡ Tattsun picked the last episode where his past was revealed. I though Greed pair’s was pretty serious but Tattsun’s was even more serious XD Since it was a half-original-half-manga ending, Tsubaki’s past was shown and Tattsun talked about how he feels really depressed whenever he has to voice Tsubaki because of how much pain Tsubaki’s been going through all these time. I don’t remember his exact words but I think he said some spoilers (?) about how Tsubaki’s actually very lonely all these years -like looking at the other Servamps having Eves and yet he lost his own during a tragic event......or something like that. I’m pretty sure he hinted the creator of Servamp was his Eve? Idk if it’s already revealed in the manga or something because I haven’t caught up with it yet :’D
I think when Greed pair’s picked scene was shown and after they said their thoughts on why they picked that scene, someone told them to stop flirting or something...? I’m not sure if it happened here or somewhere else but I definitely heard イチャイチャ (ichaicha; flirting) being used. The same was said about lust pair though XD (they get very very ridiculous later on...)
☆TSUBAKI’S LET’S TALK ABOUT SOMETHING INTERESTING CORNER☆
This corner’s different from the noon session.
In the second corner, the host would pick a paper (with a cast’s name written on it) from a box, and who ever’s name gets picked had to roll an 8-sided dice that has the different sins written on it. Whichever sin it lands on, they had to talk about something (that happened) that makes them relate to that particular sin.
Since it was Tsubaki’s corner, Tattsun was like “HEY since it’s my corner I can change the rules right? So don’t worry if you (cast) get stuck or have trouble finding things to say -there’s Shimono there to help you♡“ LOL. ---So Shimono ends up getting bullied by his juniors again pffft.
♡ Onoyuu got picked first and he rolled “Wraith”. So he tried to find something to say and ended up talking about how he woke up one day, decided he wants to eat bread with jam but realized the jam was spoilt so he got mad or something??? As Kaji (who was sitting behind) was also caught on the camera, he kept doing the peace sign lmao. Onoyuu then baton passes to Shimono LOL. Shimono takes over and said he’s feeling “Wraith” because of Onoyuu HAHA.
♡ Zakki got picked next and he rolled with “Melancholy”. He talks about his influenza (which he mentioned in the noon session) and how it was frustrating he couldn’t work even though he still had his voice. He also said he felt really bad for inconveniencing Kaji because they had 3 schedules together that very same week he caught influenza. He then tells us to be careful because it’s flu season in Japan right now. Baton passes to Shimono LOL. Shimono cooked up some random story (it could be true, but I don’t know) with influenza/Melancholy as the theme too.
♡ Kaji got picked next and he rolled “Greed”. Just like Kuro, he’s lazy and he immediately baton passes to Shimono without even trying XD Shimono then said he’s feeling “Greed” because somehow it felt like he’s the lead star for this particular corner (or something like that) lmao.
♡ Lastly, SHIMONO HIMSELF GOT PICKED. He didn’t get a chance to roll the dice -Horie flipped it to “lust” and showed it to the audience, deciding (forcing) on the sin Shimono had to talk about. Shimono starts off saying how he thinks he’s エロい (eroi; erotic) LOL. So エロい that even male seiyuus love touching his man boobs (鳩胸) ( ´థ౪థ)
☆GAME CORNER☆
This corner is split into three different games:
Telepathy (bond testing), Jumping Rope (cooperation testing) (night session only), and Who’s Behind The Door (how well do they know their respective partner)
The Servamps and their respective Eves will form a team (or Servamp/Subclass for Melancholy’s case) and try to score as many points as possible. Each correct answer gives them a point. The team with the most points in the end will be rewarded through a bonus game (which I will explain the rules later).
For the Telepathy game, each person will be handed out a sketchbook. Then, according to the question, the teams would have to answer without looking at each other’s answers and both the Servamp and their respective Eve has to get the same answer in order to score a point.
Since there are 3 people in Melancholy trio, if 2 of them gets the same answer, that would be a point. If all 3 of them gets the same answer then that would be 1.5 points.
(Starting from the telepathy game it starts going downhill.........)
The first question for this game was if they they could choose another sin to become, what would they choose.
♡ Greed pair were the first to show their answers. Both of them chose to remain as “Greed”! I think they high-fived too.....Idk they were hugging and high-fiving so much I don’t know anymore :’D Anyway one point for them!
♡ Lust pair both wrote “Greed”. One point for them!
♡ Sloth pair both wrote “Wraith”. I think they both mentioned how they wanted to try it once? XD One point!
♡ Pride pair, Onoyuu wrote “Gluttony” while Murase wrote “Shimono-san” LOL. Shimono then said “since when am I a sin?” lmao. No points.
♡ Melancholy trio, Yuuto wrote “Lust” while the other 2 wrote “Sloth”. Yuuto said he wanted to try “Lust” once. One point for them!
Second question was on how close (distance in cm) the pairs are OK with being with each other. ( ˙-˙ ) .
Who thought of this question. Just. Who. With this cast it’s definitely going to become a disaster..........
♡ Melancholy trio went first. Tattsun and Yuuto wrote 0cm while Matsuoka wrote 15cm. Tattsun got a shock at Matsuoka’s answer XD One point for them.
♡ Pride pair next. Tetsu wrote 6.98cm (ロクキュッパ) while Murase wrote 0cm. Tetsu’s 6.98cm is a pun (?) on how much his hot spring costed per pax per night or something I think?? I’m not good at those :’D The funny thing was that they flipped their answers at the same time and Murase (in Hugh’s voice) was like “It’s okay I know what Tetsu is thinking I believe in him” both this time and in the previous question and both times they GOT WRONG. No points.
♡ Sloth pair next. Terashii wrote 50cm while Kaji wrote 0cm. ............Terashii is the ONLY ONE who took the distance thing literally. He questions “isn’t 50cm the normal distance when you are (standing in front of and) talking to someone?”. Plus Kuro’s lazy and all too so maybe it’s a little further or something. Kaji then suddenly faces Terashii and said he could be closer if he tried and started leaning closer???? I think he went past Terashii’s comfort zone hence he took a step back. Either that or he got caught off guard XD No points!
♡ Lust pair next. Shimono wrote 10cm while Horie wrote 0cm. Horie gets sad. The other casts were like “0cm and 10cm doesn’t make a difference!!?” and Shimono retorted that it did. They then made them stand 10cm apart facing each other. ..........and frEAKING HORIE, he leaned in and tried to kiss Shimono what the hell. Of course Shimono backed away in time ( ´థ౪థ) nO POINTS.
♡ Greed pair last. Both wrote 0cm and stood closely facing each other. God the tension, bless. I think they high-fived too, can’t remember.. One point!
For the Jumping Rope game, like the name suggests they would have to jump rope lol. The Eves will swing the rope while their respective Servamp will jump with them. The game is split in two rounds -first round will be Greed vs Sloth and second round will be Lust vs Pride vs Melancholy.
For the last team surviving, they get a point. If they manage to last longer than 30 seconds, they get an extra point.
So before they started the actual game, they had 15 seconds (lol) to practice. Because Melancholy has 3 people, Tattsun decided that Matsuoka and Yuuto will be the ones jumping while he watches over them XD
♡ Horie kept moving closer to Shimono lol. In which Shimono backed away and I think he also asked Horie why does he keep moving closer pffft.
♡ Greed pair were extremely focused. Ryohei tugged his body and jumped very closely to Zakki it was really adorable awww.
♡ Murase jumps like a girl according to the cast LOL.
♡ They were all complaining about how 15 seconds were not enough. But time constraints so...
And then during the actual game,
♡ Greed pair and Sloth pair went up against each other first. Sloth pair didn’t last more 5 seconds -they freaking fell to the floor because according to Kaji, Terashima kept jumping forward and he sort of kneed Kaji? LOL. And Terashima nearly fell ON TOP of him -if Terashima didn’t scramble away that would’ve happened ( ˙-˙ )
Though despite all that chaos!! The Greed pair was still focusing on their side hence lasting longer than 30s and gaining them two points! They also hugged after that awww ♡
♡ Lust pair, Pride pair and Melancholy went up against each other next. The moment it started, Pride pair and Melancholy got defeated already oops. I think they failed to grasp the rhythm/tempo and the rope ended up hitting their legs?? So somehow it’s only the Lust pair left and apparently I think Horie’s chain necklace kept hitting Shimono’s face?? And Terashii and the others were like telling him to endure it because if they could pull through 30 seconds they get an extra point -in which they successfully do and got two points in total.
The last game Who’s Behind The Door is pretty much the same as in the noon session. Except that the Eves and Servamps change roles.
So for this game, there are 5 numbered doors. In the night session, the Eves will go behind the numbered doors and the Servamp will have to guess which door their respective Eves are behind. 2 questions can be asked (first come first serve) and the Eves behind the doors will all have to answer the questions thus giving hints for their respective Servamps to make a better guess, or to confuse the other Servamps. HOWEVER, the mics the Eves are using will be heavily altered into some high-pitched voice used for censorship (Idk how to describe so I found a random video -it sounded something like that but way higher -probably their own doing lmao).
The big screen behind shows the audience where the Eves were, hence the Servamps were not allowed to look back at all cost.
The Eves behind the respective doors were:
#1 - Greed (Zakki)
#2 - Melancholy (Tattsun)
#3 - Pride (Onoyuu)
#4 - Sloth (Terashii)
#5 - Lust (Shimono)
Kaji asked the first question; if they wore glasses on a daily basis.
♡ Zakki spoke really slowly but I don’t remember what he said oops. He said he doesn’t really wear glasses in the end I think.
♡ Tattsun was trying to be annoying and dragging out his words and he kept saying よくわかんない (yoku wakannai; I don’t really know) which the other Eves started imitating.....
♡ When Onoyuu was trying to speak, Tattsun and Terashii (?) tried sticking their fingers behind Onoyuu’s glasses (as if to test if they were fake) and Onoyuu was like いじめないで~ (ijimenaide~; don’t tease me~) but it sounded like a freaking baby LOLOL. Though for the Servamps guessing, as they couldn’t see what was going on it sounded very wrong ( ´థ౪థ)
♡ When it was Terashii’s turn to answer, the camera switched to him but what was shown was not Terashima himself but his glasses pffft. And then Terashii speaks off camera and said “I’m definitely not the person who looks like a complete different person without glasses~”. (A running joke in the seiyuu industry is that, whenever Terashii removes his glasses, he looks like a different person so they usually joke and say “who are you” “where is Terashima?” “Terashima is missing” whenever he takes his glasses off XD)
♡ Shimono blew a kiss into the camera (fanservice) and stirred up the audience. He (and Onoyuu) also kept laughing into the mic and his (their) voice made him (them) sound like he’s (they’re) crazy high on drugs or something LOL.
I forgot who asked the second question but they asked what their favorite food were.
♡ Zakki said a lot and he used a higher pitched voice each time so it got more and more difficult to decipher -even the cast couldn’t tell. Shimono and Onoyuu STILL kept laughing and because it was so hilarious, somewhere in the middle of it Ryohei sat and the floor and started laughing too
♡ Tattsun still kept dragging out his I don’t really know~~ I think he also
♡ Onoyuu -half laughing -was saying he has a lot of things he wants to eat
♡ Terashii copies Tattsun’s I don’t really know~~ and then said gummy? maybe I like gummy.
With those answers, the Servamps had to take their pick:
#1 - “Picked” by Ryohei
#2 - Picked (?) by Matsuoka and Yuuto
#3 - Picked (?) by Murase
#4 - Picked by Kaji
#5 - Picked by Shimono
♡ The audience were screaming when the Servamps were almost done with their picks because everyone were standing in front of their correct doors (but obviously at this point they didn’t know). The Servamps/Eves then got confused as to why we were screaming and said maybe it meant something?
♡ When door #1 opened to reveal Zakki, the greed pair immediately ran into each others’ embrace. Actually.....Ryohei was pretty clueless lol he only picked this door because that was the only one left for him (and the audience were screaming louder as he approached this door). He had wanted to pick door #4 initially but Kaji was like 良平さん…多分違うと思う (Ryohei-san, I think that’s not right (not your door)) and chased him away XD
♡ Door #2 opened to reveal Tattsun doing a cool pose. I think they all hugged here (I remember the 3 of them hugged somewhere but I’m not sure if it happened here or somewhere else)
♡ Door #3 opens and Pride pair hug!!!!!!!
♡ Door #4 opened to reveal............terashima’s glasses. The person himself disappeared LOL. Kaji then went like Terashii?? Terashii where are you!!? And when Terashima finally comes out without the glasses he’s like “who are you?” pfff. He only acknowledges Terashima after he puts on his glasses back on and they hugged XD
Kaji said that he knew Terashima was behind this door almost immediately from the glasses question.
♡ Door #5 opened to reveal a Horie who was half stripping his jacket! I don’t remember if they hugged here or not but because the whole cast hugged so much I don’t remember exactly where what happened.......
♡ Every pair gets a point!
Greed pair won overall. They literally got each and every question correct in the night session’s game corner what the hell. Their bond is definitely strong :’D So they got to play a bonus game for the prizes. The staff pushed out some 9-tile board with prizes written on them. 5 tiles were prizes named according to the sins -the prizes would fall under that category too. The remaining 4 tiles were some random scrubbing brushes as prizes LOL. And each tile had different quantity too... (I think there were x1, x1, x8 and x20 wtf haha). They had to throw a ball from a distance and whatever tile it hits, they would get that prize.
Zakki went first and using his “angel power” (he posed a few times), he tried aiming for the Greed pair prize and he.................got x8 scrubbing brushes HAHAHA.( ´థ౪థ)
Ryohei tried aiming for the Greed pair prize too and he..........GOT IT!!
Then we have an overly happy Zakki who unconsciously hugged Ryohei from the adrenaline but Ryohei didn’t respond to the hug (idk Ryohei is weird sometimes -can’t blame him he’s an AB I love ABs) so it ended up becoming an awkward one-sided hug pffft.
Apparently Greed pair prize is some golden discount coupon from some high class shop or something I don’t know but it looked high class as hell LOL.
☆LIVE READING☆
Live Reading for night is the same except there’s more adlib involved.
For example:
♡ Misono’s over-dramatic laughing.
♡ Tsubaki laughing too much he choked and Belkia had to give him some water.
♡ By the time of the night session, the Valentine’s Day chocolate sets were all already sold out so instead everyone thanked the audience and Sakuya said he had wanted to buy x10 of Mahiru’s XD
♡ Suzuki Yuuto adlib and caused Matsuoka to blank out and freeze on spot. The others saved him though XD
♡ KIMURA RYOHEI CAME OUT IN GLASSES!!!!!!!!!!! //////////
♡ HE!!! CAME!! OUT!! IN!!! GLASSES!!!!!!!!!!!
♡ MY EYES ARE HEALED I SAW JESUS!!!!! THANK!!!!!!
☆FINALE☆
Started with announcements.
♡ Announced that Servamp Festival (both sessions) will be made into a DVD and releases on 28th June.
♡ Promoted the limited time stores and upcoming cafe.
♡ Promoted the upcoming character song CDs and played Licht’s song in the background.
♡ Host wore Kuro’s jacket/hoodie and promoted it.
After all of these announcements (that were also made in the noon session), the host said there was one final important announcement and told us to watch the PV. A short video footage with all the main Eves/Servamps were shown, and then it went black and showed “SERVAMP -New Project in the Making!!”.
Life has never felt this great.
It think that’s about all that I can remember... Once again I apologize for bad English and the messy report! I do hope it made sense though (>_<)
Thank you for taking the time to read this and if you haven’t read the noon session yet, HERE is the link!! The full summary (as much as I can remember) of the Live Reading is written in the noon session’s report too ^^
.....Now time to wait for the release of the DVD on 28th June!! I’ve already pre-ordered my copy at the speed of light haaaaaaah.
