Jimin sat alone in the meadow of flowers and tall grass, looking up at the clear blue sky lost in thought.

"Yeonjun you're going to break a bone!" a man's voice sounded from the near by woods.

The prince was too deep in thought to notice until he saw two boys walk out into the meadow.

"Prince Jimin is that you?" one of them said as they approached the royal.

As they grew closer Jimin could make out who they were, "Ah, Namjoon-ssi and Yeonjun-ssi!"

The smaller boy blushed at the prince, "You remember my name?"

Jimin flashed his famously sweet smile, "Of course I do love, i know everyone in the kingdom. New or not!"

The two bowed to the prince and Namjoon looked at Yeonjun before grabbing his hand.

"We came out here to practice Junie, don't let the prince's beauty distract you."

Jimin felt a crimson blush rise on his cheeks from the comment. He always heard that but for some reason it was different coming from the tall man.

Yeonjun nodded before taking off his coat and letting his wings spread. The prince looked at the boy in shock, he hadn't seen a fairy in so long.

"Now Junie, you need use your wings to lift yourself off the ground." Namjoon instructed to his little brother.

Yeonjun took a deep breath and closed his eyes. His wings slowly started to flap, getting faster and faster.

The boy's body lifted off the ground and hovered about 5 feet in the air. Slowly opening his eyes, a smile grew on his face.

"Hyung I'm doing it! I'm flying!" he screeched in excitement.

Namjoon's proud smile and laugh made Jimin's heart warm. It reminded him of when him and Minki were growing up.

"I want you to practice flying through the forest Yeonjunie," the elder said as he sat down on the grass next to Jimin. The youngest nodded before flying off into the forest.

"Shouldn't you follow him?" Jimin asked with an amused smile.

"Nah, he may be small but he also broke my wrist when we were younger," Namjoon said with a chuckle.

Jimin smiled before looking over the horizon, "it's a beautiful day isn't it?"

Namjoon hummed in agreement leaning back on his hands. A comfortable silence fell upon the two men, the sound of the wind blowing across the meadow and trees was the only thing to be heard.

After a few minutes Namjoon spoke, "If I may ask, why are you out here your majesty?"

Jimin sighed, "I just needed a space to think and be away from the rustle of the palace. The stables weren't enough for me to escape so I came here."

"Makes sense."

Jimin pulled out the necklace he had holding in his pocket and inspected it.

"Looks like one of the necklaces Halmoni made," the brunette said with a small smile.

Jimin nodded, "It was just pure sapphire but she put the spell of soulmates on it."

The elder nodded in understanding before feeling a pain in his temples.

"Are you alright?"

Namjoon suddenly stood up and looked at the prince, "Go to the treeline, now!"

Jimin didn't hesitate and ran towards the forest. Namjoon stood in the meadow and slowly fell to the ground.

"I know you're here," Namjoon spoke out, "just come out already."

Suddenly a thick fog started to cover the grass and namjoon stood up again. A womanly figure stood before him, not completely alive.

Jimin watched in fear and confusion. he could see the woman but not like Namjoon could. What he sees is pretty much a spirit or ghost but the elder could see a physical human.

"Who are you?" the brunette asked the spirit.

"I am a messenger for you and the prince."

Jimin cautiously stepped towards the woman and stood next to the elder, "What information do you have?"

"You can see her?" Namjoon asked the latter in disbelief.

"your kingdoms are in grave danger! The enchantress will come and cause chaos between all of you," the woman spoke as she looked at the prince, "Your only hope is that necklace. Your soulmate bond will save them."

She looked at Namjoon with a morbid look, "You will not be ready for what you will learn when you meet the enchantress but you must remember why you fight and who you fight for. She will not win if you remember."

And with that she disappeared into the wind. The two men stood in disbelief, Jimin with a tight grip on the necklace and Namjoon with a sense of dread.

"We need to go to the castle," Jimin said as she grabbed the elder's wrist and pulled him towards the forest.

"Hyung!" a voice called out towards them in the trees. Yeonjun hovered above them with a smile.

"We are going to the castle Yeonjun! follow us there!"

"So you know who the enchantress is?"

Namjoon nodded to Seokjin before leaning his head on the table. The black haired man rubbed his forehead in stress.

"This cannot be happening right now," Seokjin stated, "we have the coronation in the next few weeks!"

"Jinnie we just need to contact Jinyoung, he might know what to do." Minki said as he rubbed the elder's back.

"And if he doesn't?"

Namjoon lifted his head, "He will know. It is his mother after all."

The three men stood in shock as the brunette made his way to the front of the castle.

"Where are you going?" Jimin asked as he followed the man.

"I will go to Mora to talk to the king and let him know the situation."

"Well then I'm coming with you," Jimin said as he pulled the brunette back.

The elder looked at the prince's stubborn look and just sighed, "Fine."

"Please be safe Jiminie!" Minki called to the man as he left the castle.

"We can take a coach to Mora."

Namjoon nodded as they hopped into a coach. Jimin gave the coachmen their destination and they were off.
