Drabble: Memento Mori (Tempest Series Teaser) (PG)
TITLE: Memento Mori (Tempest Series Teaser)
RATING: PG
WARNING: Character Death
GENRE: Angst
PAIRING: None (Yunho centric)
LENGTH: Drabble (306 w)
SUMMARY: You feel a sudden urge to go after him and stop him, but the strong grip of JaeJoong’s hand on your wrist stops you in your tracks.
AUTHOR'S NOTE: I wrote this drabble a few months ago, after getting inspired by Coldplay's song Spies. The original idea was for a longer story however school has kept me busy enough to scare my muse away. Still I decided to post it as a teaser, after listening to the song again today, because I really miss writing and posting, but I miss you (my readers) even more.
Oh and by the way, for those who have been reading The Beat, the new chapter should be up before Christmas (along with another surprise) so don't forget to check my journal once in a while. Thanks in advance for reading, I hope you guys enjoy it!
MEMENTO MORI
“Sunbae...”
Your eyes plead.
«Please, don’t go»
“Captain, they are waiting for you.”
Your mind screams.
«Stay»
“Don’t worry. Everything will be alright.”
He flashes one of his trademark grins one last time before turning his back on you. Lowering the raincoat’s hood over his head, he raises his hands, signaling them he is unarmed, and starts his slow walk across the small bridge.
You feel a sudden urge to go after him and stop him, but the strong grip of JaeJoong’s hand on your wrist stops you in your tracks.
“Let him go. He knows what he’s doing.” He whispers, standing next to you.
It isn’t until he’s reached the middle of the bridge when the men on the other side finally release their hostage.
“Appa!”
The small boy sprints towards you, running past the captain and into his father’s outstretched arms. Your eyes wander to the happy reunion scene playing in front of you, a small relief washing over you as realizing the little kid is unharmed.
But it’s not too long before your attention is diverted back to the other side of the bridge. The sharp loudness of a gun shot tears at your ears, then a second one and then a third. Your eyes widen in horror as you look up to see his body slump forward and collapse onto the ground.
«No...»
«Yunho sunbae...»
“NO!”
Your first instinct is to run to his aid but once again you’re quickly hold back by a pair of strong arms- Jaejoong’s arms.
“Lieutenant, we gotta help him!” You cry in desperation, struggling to break free from his strong grip, but it’s futile.
“There’s nothing we can do now.”
“The Lone Wolf mission has been completed.”
You don’t notice the small shake in his voice though.
