Prologue, Phase One
Phase Two: The Priestess
Part one
A youth stood on top of the mountain overlooking the entire land; he stared upon his kingdom with forlorn eyes. The once picturesque landscape that was once lively and full of color is now desolate and gray. The field that is once filled with flowers of every color is now littered with the rotting corpses of those who have fallen.
And as he gazes upon the skies his eyes were filled with despair for the once clear blue sky has turned into a gloomy sinister atmosphere that blanketed the land bringing upon misery and grief. He closed his eyes and heaved a sigh full of anguish. As he opens them, his eyes glow blue with power and determination burning in their depths.
He could feel his comrades, his brothers approaching him as he drew his sword. Cheongryon (1), his long time friend and beloved husband was the first to reach his side; pain and determination were written in his eyes. Jujak (2), his blood-brother came up on his right side. Behind Jujak are Hyeonmu and Baekho (3), his lovers. All five of them gazed upon their once magnificent land with sorrow.
From the horizon they could see their enemy advancing through their borders, with Baal the Minotaur (4) as the leader. All five stood firm, to wait for the final battle to commence. (5)
The scene changes, with BongHwang holding a bloody and dying Cheongryon in his arms. “Why?” he sob in anguish. Around them the battle is still in full swing. The others still holding on in defense of their kingdom, but he knew it wouldn’t be long until they too would fail.
Cheongryeon gazes up on him with a smile of benevolence and reaches up to caress BongHwang’s face, “I promise… to protect you… didn’t I?” he answered in a halting voice.
*cough**cough*
Blood poured from Cheongryon’s mouth and unto his chest. His end is near he could fell it. “BongHwang… promise me… to… look for… me…in our next… life,” he asked, the smile on his face never left.
“I promise you, my love,” BongHwang vowed as tears continuously poured forth from his eyes.
“I am… happy… that I… meet… you,” he said as BongHwang sobbed while clutching him close.
“I am happy that I have met you too,” BongHwang leaned over to kiss his love.
“Sa…rang…he…” and Cheongryon took his last breath as his eyes turned glassy and lifeless.
“CHEONGRYON!!!” BongHwang wailed in anguish. But unknown to him an enemy stood behind him and struck him form behind.
The scene changes again to what happened in the park with our DBSK members.
“I hope this will shake your memory up a little,”
A ball of energy struck all five members and blew them of to a nearby rock.
“NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!”
“YUNHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!”
A blood curdling scream besiege the small room and Yunho abruptly woke up to identify the source. Then he saw Jaejoong beside him tossing and whimpering, still in the clutches of the nightmare that plagued the raven haired singer.
“BooJae, wake up,” he tried to coax his beloved back to the world of wakefulness. “Come on sweetheart, open your eyes. I got you. It’s just a dream,” he said in a soft voice while hugging Jaejoong in his arms.
Jaejoong opened his eyes abruptly as he woke up with a start and realized that Yunho was hugging him. When everything has registered in his frazzled mind, Jaejoong cling to Yunho fiercely and sobbed. He let the horrors of his nightmare be chased away by the soothing presence of his lover.
“Shhhh… It’s ok now Boo… It’s just a dream… I’ll protect you… don’t worry,” Yunho held his lover while rubbing comforting circles on Jaejoong’s back and talking to him in a soothing voice.
When Jaejoong calmed down, totally drained from his ordeal Yunho released him and turned on their lights. He place Jaejoong gently back on the bed and got off the covers. “I’ll be right back, ok?” he assured his lover when Jaejoong tried to stop him from leaving his side. “I’ll just get you something warm to help you sleep again,” he said bending down to kiss Jaejoong’s forehead.
Yunho went into the kitchen to fix Jaejoong a warm glass of milk. Not wanting to leave his lover for so long he took a mug and poured some milk and popped it in the microwave for 30sec (6) and took out a bottle of brandy from the cupboard. While he was preparing Jaejoong’s drink Yunho let his mind wonder to what has happened.
Jaejoong had been having nightmares almost every night because of what happened two weeks ago during their photo shoot. According to reports that the police released, the incident was caused by some terrorist from N. Korea. But he knew better something big is happening and it is just the beginning.
The microwave beeped signaling its done heating up the milk. He took it out being carefully so he won’t get burned accidentally and took half a shot of brandy and poured it unto the hot milk. He then took the milk back to his and Jaejoong’s room.
As Yunho entered Jaejoong sat up on the bed and took the offered mug gratefully. “Thank you, Yunnie,” he said as he blew the steam from the mug and took a sip.
“I added some brandy in it to help you sleep,” Yunho said as he crawled back beside his lover. He stared at Jaejoong as his lover drinks the milk he brought. Again his mind wonders off to what happened two weeks ago. They have stayed in the hospital for a week due to the injuries they have acquired. When they were discharged the management suddenly declared that they should good on a hiatus. The only reason behind it is because of their safety. According to their company, being targeted by the attack by terrorist during a photo shoot means that it might happened again and so the management arranged a press conference tomorrow for their temporary hiatus. This struck Yunho as something peculiar, because surely just one attack wouldn’t warrant such extreme action unless there something that the management is not telling them.
“Yunnie…” no answer
“Yunho!” that caught Yunho’s attention and he focused his attention back to Jaejoong.
“Yes Boo, is there something you need?” he asked his lover.
Jaejoong shook his head, “You were staring of to space. I just want to know what’s in your mind,”
Yunho move closer to Jaejoong and embraced him as they lay down on the bed and Yunho reach out to turn off the bedside lamp. “So what’s churning inside our dear leader-ssi’s mind? If you don’t mind me asking,” said Jaejoong.
“I am just worried with the turn of events. It seems like everything is moving too fast and even then we don’t know what is happening. It is like we are being drag on a ride we don’t know where it is heading,” Yunho started rambling. “That incident during the photo shoot it is like there is more to that than just an ordinary terrorist attack and you know it! What happened there is no terrorist attack. I mean there is a creature there, a monster the likes that exist only in myths then… Bam! It’s there wrecking havoc! Then there is the issue of your nightly nightmares not that I am complaining that you’re not telling me what they are but I am just worried, for you, for me, for our dongsaengs,”
Jaejoong grew silent when he was reminded again of his ordeal with the mysterious guy and his nightmares. He knew they are related somewhat, his nightmare and what happened in the park he just need to dig deeper into it even though he doesn’t want to, but he needs to protect his family, and if that means he needs to go to hell and back in order to accomplish that, then so be it.
Jaejoong reaches out and kissed Yunho’s forehead. “Yunnie you don’t need to worry that much. Whatever happens we’ll all face it together like what we always do,” he said combing a stray lock of hair away from Yunho’s eyes. ‘You don’t have to worry about it Yunnie. I’ll make sure to protect all of you this time,’ he though. He kissed Yunho’s forehead again and hugged him. “Let’s go back to sleep,” he declared.
Yunho smiled and embraced Jaejoong tightly as he closed his eyes. Jaejoong on the other hand sighed. He knew he couldn’t sleep knowing now what’s inside his lover head. He just hugged Yunho tighter and burrowed his head deeper into Yunho’s chest. ‘I’ll protect you guys this time. I won’t let anything happen to you. This I promise to the Heavens,”
