Summary: Kyuhyun walked and everyone followed.
Kyuhyun walked and everyone followed. The king was barely walking, barely balanced, but Kyuhyun who was still boiling with anger hid his concern for his father's health and acted ice cold, they needed to destroy the jerk first…
They walked back to the staircase which they just climbed up, the king led the way this time
'It doesn't work, we tried it already. You're wasting our time!' Kyuhyun hissed angry, he felt something bad inside of him; he felt that something bad had happened to sungmin somehow
'Your highness…' changmin began, he was worried that Kyuhyun was going too far with this and the king was at his limits already, he won't be able to take much insults and disrespect anymore
The look Kyuhyun gave changmin made him shut up at once
The king didn't respond, he kept leading them through the stairs, they had climbed another ten stairs or so before he stopped, they stopped with him. The king looked ahead of him and whispered something, the second he did he looked paler than before, he had used magic and right now it didn't look like he had much magic to use anyway
Something happened for sure, even if they didn't see it, but it happened still, they felt it. The king kept on climbing and they climbed after him, but this time it was taking them somewhere for real, they were getting higher and higher, near the top of the tower
When they finally reached the wooden door Kyuhyun, yoochun and yunho kicked it open quickly and they all rushed into the chamber. As changmin had said it was all gold, the floor was covered with golden stuff, so were the walls and the ceiling
'I can't believe this' Kyuhyun hissed and looked at his father with somehow hatred in his eyes ' you gave him all this gold but you had to think overnight whenever I asked you for any?'
The king didn't speak; he reached to the closest armchair and sat down, looking so tired and ill. The old man looked at everyone around him as they searched everywhere in the chamber, turning it upside down for any clues and felt like chucking on his tears, he turned to look outside the window and wiped his tear quickly before anyone could see it. The king must stay strong all the time and never get weak; he couldn't show anyone his weakness, no one, especially Kyuhyun.
'I've got nothing' changmin sighed and turned to look at Kyuhyun, he was standing still land eyeing his father, a weird look on his face
'Everything here is made out of gold, nothing else' yoochun frowned
'Wait…' changmin frowned, thinking, remembering ' the only thing that wasn't made out of gold was his cane; it was made out of wood for sure'
'Cane?' yunho blinked ' he wasn't holding a cane when we last saw him'
'Which means he left it somewhere' yunho frowned
'Let's get some of his belongs and scry for it' Kyuhyun looked around
'But we got no magical powers anymore'
'He got some left' Kyuhyun hissed, the king turned to look at him and tried to hide the sadness in his eyes, he looked at everyone and out of the window again
'I won't help you kill him' he spoke, his voice cracking again ' I can never kill him as I can never kill you'
Jaejoong blinked, even without his powers he was feeling something hidden which could explode like a bomb
'But you will help him kill me' Kyuhyun spat ' I don't need your help; I'll find a way to do it myself. There must be something which could help us in the castle's library'
Turning around Kyuhyun walked out of the chamber and down the stairs, he rushed quickly to the library with everyone following him, everyone but the king.
The library as it turned out to be was a huge place, filled with books and scrolls and god knows what, just looking around at the thousands of books yoochun gulped, where were they going to begin?
'There must be something in here about finding him'
'But…'
Yunho didn't finish his sentence, the ground began to shake underneath them and the walls trembled, books, scrolls and parchments began falling on them from the high shelves
'Earthquake?' yunho blinked looking around
'No, someone or something is causing this' changmin frowned, looking around
'Something or someone doesn't want us here' jaejoong whispered softly
'We won't back off' Kyuhyun hissed, pointing at one direction ' the most dangerous books are there'
Without complaining everyone rushed into the direction where Kyuhyun pointed, they began searching in the falling books and everything, trying to find a way to get their lovers back and kill the lowlife
Yoochun, while searching, held one book and opened it. If he was not worried about junsu, he was after going through that book. The book was filled with pictures of people, witches and wizards, being tortured in a horrible ways. One man was held in air while a thousand needles were piercing his body. Another witch was being burned alive. A group of people, mingled, were being raped publicly. A man was tied up and his hand was being cut off while he yelled. A witch was being held in air while ten snakes were wrapped around her body, biting and attacking her while she was alive, unable to move. A wizard was…
'Stop' changmin took the book away from yoochun before he could go on looking through it ' it will only make you worry more and you won't be able to concentrate, everything will be lost then'
Yoochun bit on his lower lip so hard he drew blood. He was scared to death about his little lover, what if he did something to junsu? What if he tortured him like those pictures? Junsu won't give him the powers he wants, so he'll torture him into submission. He must find him, he must find junsu before this happens, and he was running out of time while searching in those books, it was hopeless, they weren't going anywhere with this!
Ground, wall and ceiling began trembling again, more books kept on falling down, now everything was on the floor, everything was mixed together ad you couldn't tell what is what anymore
'DAMN IT!!'
'Yoochun calm down. We must find a way to scry for him or whatever it was…' yunho tried, but he wasn't so convincing, as he was so worried himself.
Out of the nowhere a fire started, the books around them were being burnt down to ashes and with them was the clue they were hoping to find
'We must get out of here' yunho yelled and they all rushed outside the library, trying their best to keep out of the fire, but even with that yoochun burnt his hand and jaejoong tripped and twisted his ankle
It wasn't only the library which was on fire, it wasn't only the library shaking and trembling like an earthquake too, it was the entire castle actually. Soldiers were running everywhere, trying their best to put out the fire or save some precious things from being burned or something, but none was using magic
'They lost their magic too' changmin widened his eyes
'Yea so?' Kyuhyun really didn't think they had the time to notice and discuss why the soldiers lost their magic right now
'In the past the soldiers lost their magic the day of the attack on the castle… which means…' changmin looked around, shocked
'But you said that's not going to happen until another week!' yoochun yelled out
'Something must've happened and changed everything' changmin looked around, worried
'So the subjects are attacking us, is that's what you're saying?' Kyuhyun wasn't prepared to this; they were way over their heads in what they got. They didn't need something like this happening and adding to their disasters
'I believe so your highness, and if history was to repeat itself the soldiers will disobey the king in a few hours and…'
'And kill him…' Kyuhyun finished, remembering what changmin told him happened before
Changmin nodded
'We'll write our own destiny this time' Kyuhyun hissed ' changmin, go get the king. We'll sneak him out of the castle and make sure he's safe before we keep looking for the jerk, history mustn't repeat itself'
Changmin nodded and rushed away at once, he rushed to the Great Saga's chamber, where he thought the king might still be. Truth enough the king was sitting in the same armchair looking outside the window at the sky, not noticing, or more like not caring what happened underneath it, on the castle's gates. Even though his appearances said a handsome mid aged man, the sad look in his eyes showed an old man who had the entire world's problems on his shoulders
'Your majesty we need to go' changmin rushed to the king pulled him from his wrist and began running. He didn't explain, he didn't say anything, he just wasn't going to waist time explaining when he could be saving his king
When they finally reached in front of the library changmin let go of the king's wrist and bowed his head apologizing to him
'We need to get you out of here' Kyuhyun hissed looking around and finally at changmin ' through the tunnels under the kitchen, the exit is far enough to be safe'
'No…' the king spoke suddenly, his tired eyes looking serious ' I'm not leaving my castle and soldiers alone to face this; I'm not escaping as a coward. I prefer to die here, fighting that to live another hundred years feeling like a coward'
'Oh, so you're basically saying you're staying here and waiting for your oh-so-great Great Saga to come and rescue you, is that it?' Kyuhyun hissed
'You're always assuming the worst, kyu. That's why you're not going anywhere with this, you're too angry, all you want is to kill and destroy and not protect and safe'
'YOU'RE THE ONE TO TALK?' Kyuhyun exploded 'ASSUMING HUH? WELL, AM I WRONG TO ASSUME THAT YOU CARE FOR YOUR DAMN GREAT SAGA MORE THAN YOU CARE FOR ME? BELIEVE HIM OVER ME? LIKE HECK I AM NOT! SO DON'T YOU TELL ME ABOUT ASSUMING THE WORST YOU…' but then …
