Choi Minho
The Prince Behind The Mask
It was another day of punishment...Minho, Key & Taemin woke up early and went to Onew's room.
They saw Onew lying on his bed asleep but has a painful expression on his face...
'Hey guys, why is hyung's wings look like they're broken?' Minho noticed Onew's white wings which was not aligned
'Hyung? Hyung? Wake up...' Taemin shook Onew which made Onew turn & accidentally moved his wings
'AH!' Onew screamed in pain
'Mianhe, hyung!' Taemin screamed & stopped shaking him
'What happened to him?' Key thought
'Princess...' Onew spoke but still sleeping while feeling pain
'W-what did he do?'
Then Onew woke up with a lot of pain...
'Why are your wings released, hyung? You never let anyone else see it...' Minho reminded
'Deh, but I can't hide it for now because the Sapphire Blue Ocean hurt me last night...' Onew explained
'W-where's princess?' Taemin asked
'I brought her back to the witches' castle...' Onew lowered his head
'WHAT?! WHY?!' the 3 screamed
'She will be more tortured if she's outside her tower...' Onew defended
'But hyung, I heard that their is a mighty dragon named GD that guards the tower...h-how can you visit Reika?' Minho asked him
Onew felt ashamed for leaving her, then he sighed & stood up...
'Where are you going, hyung?' Onew ignored Taemin & went to the balcony
'Hyung!' the 3 ran to him
Onew was trying to flap his wings but he was feeling severe pain...
'Hyung! W-why are you leaving? Aren't you going to be with us later on???' Key asked again
'Mianhe, SHINee...it hurts to see you disappearing in my life one by one. I can't stand it...' Onew apologized
'Hyung, it will hurt you more if you don't see it...' Key said
'Today is Minho, then Key & last Taemin...I can't stand it...' Onew sighed
'Hyung...don't tell me your not going when it's Taemin? Taemin chose you together with princess to give the blue rose...' Minho said & Onew sighed
'Mianhe...' Onew flapped his wings & flew with an unstable balance
-------------------------------------
The witches left with GD which means Reika is alone, right now--Reika was by the wall, seemed waiting for someone...
'I wonder what it's like to be free like the element angel...' Reika thought & sighed
Then a flying creature fell to the bridge of the castle, Reika immediately ran to the bridge...
'The element angel!' Reika thought
Onew was still unconscious after falling hard to the bridge & his wings were broken that he can't even move them...
'Did G-Dragon-ssi saw him?' Reika asked herself & observed Onew
Onew had burns on his arm, scars on his face, bleeding lips & broken wings...
'He fought with Princess Seohyun's eagle?' Reika thought
'ELF? Shawols???' Reika saw the 2 creatures running to them
'Oh my, that element angel is really hurt...'
'Unnie...please heal him, he's injured badly...' Reika begged for the 2 creatures & they nodded
-------------------------------------
Onew was sleeping on Reika's bed while Reika was guarding him...
'Kamasa, unnie...' Reika thanked the 2
'Take care of him, okay?' the ELF reminded
'Deh~' the princess answered then the ELF & Shawol left
Reika smiled at the element angel who was sleeping peacefully...
'SHINee...' Onew started to have a nightmare
'Huh?'
'A-Aniyo...' Onew continued
'A-Aniyo, SHINee!' Onew woke up
'It's okay, it's just a nightmare...' Reika calmed him down
'P-princess? M-Mianhe...' Onew apologized
'Why are you here? I thought you were with your friends...it's Choi Minho-ssi's punishment today...'
'I-I can't see him alone...' Onew lowered his head & felt ashamed
'Prince? Would you like to go back?' Reika asked
'Your wings are already healed by the ELFs & Shawols...' Reika smiled
'I-I can't...'
'I'll come with you, prince...' Onew looked at her
'B-but I can't hold properly when I'm scared...'
'It's okay, prince...I trust you, I believe that you won't drop me...' Reika smiled & pulled Onew to stand up
'Prince Jin Ki...please...' Reika hugged him
Onew thought for a while, Minho was waiting for him together with Key & Taemin...Reika was hugging him which he missed so much but his fear was stopping him...
'Okay, princess...' Onew said & Reika smiled at him
Onew carried her & flapped his wings then flew out of the tower...
-------------------------------------
'It's okay, Taemin...we'll meet again...' Minho tried to calm down the crying Taemin
'H-hyung!' Taemin hugged Minho tight
'Stay strong, Taemin...tomorrow is Key then you--we'll see each other in heaven...'
'Choi Minho, get ready...' the guards' voices said
'Taemin, give this to Minho later...he will remember you...'
-------------------------------------
Reika was holding onto Onew but he was avoiding her gaze...
Then Reika felt drops on her forehead, she looked around but didn't see any rain clouds. She looked at Onew & noticed that he was crying...
'P-prince Jin Ki? W-why are you crying?' Reika asked but Onew just looked away
'P-prince Jin Ki?' Reika asked again but Onew just pulled her closer
-------------------------------------
Minho was on the platform staring at Key & Taemin, Taemin was holding the rose firmly while Key was hugging him...
A royal court guard put on the black mask as Minho closed his eyes & the guard tied the rope around Minho's neck...
'Choi Minho...' Kang In stated his name & the guards pulled the rope which made Minho rise
'Hyung...' Taemin whispered
-------------------------------------
Onew suddenly stopped & Reika looked at him...
'W-we're too late...M-Minho, h-he's gone...' Onew said & slowly flew downwards
'Prince Jin Ki? W-where are you?' Reika started to get worried
'There she is!' a voice yelled then an eagle grabbed her
'P-princess!' Reika gasped after seeing the 9 witches with G-Dragon
'We told you to stay inside your tower! Do you want to be tortured for the rest of your life?!' Seohyun yelled & Reika shook her head
'It's that element angel, right?!' Taeyeon asked
'Forgive us, Reika...' the ELF apologized
'They killed too many...' the Shawol added which made Reika gasp
'D-don't hurt them!' Reika screamed
'Too late, they're already dead!' Tiffany screamed
'I-I'll do anything! J-just don't hurt them! P-please!' Reika screamed
'Then, when it's Lee Taemin's punishment--you will give the rose. After he disappear, you will kidnapped that element angel & bring him into the dungeon.' Yoona instructed
'N-no!'
'Do you want these 2 to die also?!' Sunny pointed at the 2 creatures
'P-please no...I-I'll do it...' Reika said
'Good, but in the mean time... G-Dragon, make sure she's locked inside her tower...'
'Do it if you don't want to be treated like her...' the witches glared at him
'Yes, princesses...' G-Dragon answered
'And as for you, Reika...stay away from my fiancée!' Jessica glared at her & they went back to the castle
Reika got back at her tower then she cried...
She thought that the element angel left her to be tortured by the witches, she thought she was tricked by him...
'U-unnie was right, I-I shouldn't fall in love with someone--they would just hurt you...' Reika said to herself
'I shouldn't have met him! What were you thinking, Reika?! Why would you think that...that he would fall in love with you? H-he's already engaged with P-princess Jessica...' Reika scolded herself while shedding tears
The ELF & Shawol was watching her but Reika just ignored them...
'R-Reika?' a figure appeared & Reika became frightened
'I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to leave you in the woods...I-I was just too depressed...' Onew apologized
'W-would you like to go outside?' Onew reached for her but Reika slapped his hand away
'R-Reika?'
'L-leave me alone...' Reika coldly said
'H-huh? W-what's wrong, Reika?'
'I said leave me alone!' Reika screamed
'B-but--' Onew stopped when he saw Reika's face
'R-Reika...w-why are you crying?' Onew went to her
'D-don't touch me...' Reika glared at him
'Wait, w-why are you treating me like this?'
'You should know!' Reika looked away
'Reika, please...tell me what happened...' Onew held her hand but Reika shook it off
'Please...just leave me alone, I-I don't want the ELFs & Shawols to get hurt because of me...'
'W-why? A-are the witches hurting you?'
'Jin Ki? How's my fiancée?' Jessica arrived & Reika gasped
'J-jessica...'
'What are you doing here, Jin Ki?' Jessica asked
'W-what did you do to Reika?' Onew ignored her question
'Us? We didn't do anything to her~' Jessica gave a fake smile
Onew suddenly grabbed Reika & released his wings...
'Let go of me!' Reika screamed
'You are not going anywhere!' Jessica froze Onew & used ice to bring Reika at the edge of the window of the tower, only thin ice was preventing her from falling
'Do you want her to fall from this tower?' Jessica said as Onew stared at the scared Reika
'P-princess! P-please!' Reika screamed while closing her eyes
'Reika! Jessica, stop this!' Onew tried to move but he was stuck
'Why would I? I would only let her go if she swears with her life to stay away from MY fiancée!' Jessica said
'P-princess! I-I swear! I-I won't see him!'
'R-Reika...d-don't, p-please...' Onew begged
'I-I swear with my life! I-I won't see him! I-I'll leave him alone!' Reika screamed
'Good luck surviving...' Jessica said & the thin ice melted then Reika fell
'REIKA!!!' Onew screamed as Jessica left
Reika was holding on the base of the window with one hand...
But Onew was using gravity to make her fall--he was possessed by the witches...
'AHH!' Reika screamed when she lost grip of the window and fell
'REIKA!' Onew realized & tried everything to move
The ELF & Shawol arrived and helped Onew to escape. One then rushed & flew down from the tower...
Onew gasped when he saw unconscious Reika with blood on her forehead down to her cheek...
'No!' Onew carried Reika & hurriedly lay down her to the bed
'ELFs! Shawols!' Onew called out for them but no one came
'Haha~ She's not waking up! And she'll only have nightmares~' Taeyon arrived & teased
'Where are the ELFs & Shawols?!' Onew screamed
'Oh don't worry, they're just being tortured...' Hyoyeon smirked
'If you want us to heal her, never come here...' Yoona said & they left
'Princess...please wake up. I'm sorry...' Onew held her hand tight
'Hyung!' a small voice called & Onew looked around
'Hyung! Down here!' Onew looked down & saw 2 small figures
'Key? Taemin? What are you doing here so small, literally?' the 2 small people rode on Onew's other hand
'We made ourselves small so we won't be noticed...' Taemin said
'But why do you sound like a chipmunk?'
'I like my voice like this! Right, umma?' Taemin smiled but Key just rolled his eyes
'N-no...g-get away!' Reika was having another nightmare
'Prince Jin Ki is a traitor!' Reika screamed & Onew was hurt
'Reika, Reika...please wake up. I know that you're only dreaming, all the things you said aren't true.' Onew said while holding her hand, trying to wake her up
'P-Pabo Reika...y-you shouldn't have met him...' Reika started crying in her sleep
'Is she...blaming herself for meeting you, hyung?' Taemin looked at him with worry
'Reika, wake up...Onew-Oppa is here. Please, your Key-umma & Taemin are waiting also...' Onew whispered
'Hyung, is this yours?' Key was holding a ring & Onew observed it
'Deh...' Onew answered & Key gave it to him
'Is that your engagement ring?' Taemin asked but Onew shook his head
'It's the ring I was supposed to give to Reika when I planned to propose to her...'
'You didn't tell us anything about that, hyung...' Key said
'Mianhe, I'm just afraid that I wouldn't be a prince again & Reika would reject me because of the law...'
'The law that a servant is forbidden to be in love with a royalty?' Key said & he nodded
'You hear that, Minho-hyung & Jonghyun-appa? Hyung was really planning to propose to her, I'm right!' Taemin smiled
Onew looked at the writing of his name in the ring "Prince Onew"
Onew took of his necklace which signifies his element powers. He took the lace off & put it though the ring...
'What are you doing, hyung?' the 2 asked as Onew put the necklace around Reika's neck
'I'm gonna make her remember me...' Onew kissed Reika's forehead then the witches appeared
'Jessica, wake her up...' Onew said
'A deal is a deal, my fiancée...' Jessica smirked
'Yoona.' Seohyun ordered & she followed
'Keep your promise, prince...' Hyoyeon reminded
'Deh, I promise...' Onew said and released his wings
Key & Taemin were sitting on his shoulder while watching Reika...
Onew slowly flew outside the tower as Reika woke up...
'Princess...' Onew whispered but she just glared back
'Hyung, it's alright...' Taemin said
'N-no, s-she hates me now...' Onew said disappointedly
---------------------------------------
'Now, promise your unnie & my friends that you won't see him again...' Hyoyeon said
'B-but--'
'No buts, Reika...he's a bad person, he hurt Jessica before & he will hurt you. It's important that we capture him and never let him hurt anyone again...'
'A-Aniyo!'
'You don't want your unnie to be hurt, right?' Reika nodded
'Then promise us that you won't see him after we capture him, promise?' Hyoyeon asked & Reika was in deep thought
'Prince Jin Ki hurt Princess Jessica, after I trusted him--he left me in the woods to be caught & tortured by the princesses. They're right...' Reika thought and answered,
'Deh, unnie...I promise...' Hyoyeon faked smiled & hug her with disgust
'Now be a good girl & stay here, you can ask GD to take you outside the tower but not outside the wall...' Hyoyeon said & left
'G-Dragon-ssi?' Reika called & he came
'Yes, princess?'
'Please let me go down, I want to see what's happening outside the wall...' Reika requested
'Of course...' GD agreed & Reika rode on him
She got down & stared at the wall, her vision passed through the wall. She saw Prince Yesung & his friends with Onew, Key and Taemin...
"Hyung, open the door..." Key said while knocking at Onew's door
"What's wrong, why isn't Onew coming out?" Prince Yesung & King Leeteuk asked
"Hyung thinks that Reika hates him..." Taemin said
"Reika...she's watching us..." Leeteuk sensed her vision
"S-she is?"
"Reika...come back, Onew needs you. Prince Jin Ki won't hurt you, he loves you!"
"I-I'm sorry, princess...p-please come back, Reika." Reika heard Onew's crying voice
'No!' Reika screamed & panted
'What's wrong, princess?' GD asked
'I-it's all his fault! H-he tricked me!' Reika was terrified
'GD-ssi...p-please don't let them inside the wall! P-prince Yesung & K-king Leeteuk are blaming me! Please, don't let any trespassers come here!' Reika begged
'Okay, princess...I promise' GD said
'Having an unnie is better than having a mean brother...' Reika whispered
Then she heard a growl coming from GD but then he disappeared...
'GD-ssi?' Reika started to get worried
'NO!' Reika screamed & disappeared
---------------------------------------
Onew screamed inside his room like he was being hurt or something was controlling him
'REIKA!' Yesung screamed his name
'What's wrong, Jong Woon?' Leeteuk asked him with worry
'R-Reika, s-she's missing! Someone took her!' Yesung screamed
'Umma! Hyung is missing!!!' Taemin called
'U-umma, don't tell me that h-hyung i-is--'
'No, it can't be...he stopped himself...' Key whispered
