different but the same

Reverse

Author's Note: The reason I took so long for this is because I put in a tremendous amount of time researching on myths and beliefs of mythical creatures. I sacrificed sleep and my brain for this I hope you guys enjoy it !

 

It was a different feeling all over. For once, they didn't hear the usual hustle and bustle of the busy city. No cars busily driving past, honking. No sound of neighbours yelling or people rushing to get to their destinations in the morning. No sound of trains on tracks or rushing commuters. It was nothing but quiet and serene. For once, the air they breathed in made them feel refreshed and it was almost as if they were on an isolated island. That morning, they all slept in till afternoon came.

Jimin was first to wake up amongst the 7, stretching as comfortably as he can in Jungkook's arms without waking the younger up. Though weaker than Jungkook as their mini test proved, Jimin managed to pry the younger's tight hold off him and got up. He dressed himself with a random white shirt he found on the floor and his boxers. Leaving the younger with a peck, he went out of the room to find Yoongi shuffling out of his own room and into the kitchen.

"morning hyung.." Jimin mumbled sleepily as he reached for a bottle of water. Yoongi grumbled lowly in response before sitting at the dining table. "make me coffee will you?" The younger nodded and moved to make the elder's coffee as he liked it. "It's the first time you're second to wake up hyungie" Yoongi whined as he rested his head on the table. "Don't mention it. I feel like I'm not myself" Jimin chuckled as he served the elder's coffee before sitting across him. "Already did"

"Good morning my lovelies~" Jin greeted them happily as he walked into the kitchen before stopping by the table, doing a double take. "Omo- Yoongi? Are my eyes seeing things?" Yoongi grumbled as he looked at the eldest. "Hyung, want me to make you see stars?" Jin made a face as he took ingredients out of the fridge. "No thank you. I can see those well at night. I would very much like to be able to distinguish day and night" Jimin laughed at the exchange of words, slumping against his chair as he watched his eldest hyung cook.

Namjoon shuffled into the kitchen as he rubbed his eyes. Stopping beside the kitchen table, he looked between Jimin and Yoongi before freezing. "Yoongi hyung? Are my eyes-" "Seeing things? Seriously if one more person says something about me waking up ear- HOBIIIIIII" Yoongi whined as he ran to hug Hoseok who very similarly rubbed his eyes as he came to the dining table. "Hobiii they're poking fun at me.." Hoseok cooed as he squished Yoongi in a hug, babying him with words like 'aww my poor baby' and so on. Jimin grinned as he watched on. "No wonder Yoongi hyung is a puppy. So cute"

He looked down when he felt a nudge, seeing Taehyung in his form of a white tiger cub. Picking up the cub, he put him on the table, nuzzling his nose into the other's fur. "Hey Taetae~ You're up too huh?" The cub growled lowly, causing another round of laughter by Jimin who just rubbed his fur.  Seokjin turned to glance at the members before focusing on his cooking. "Alright boys settle down. Food will be served soon- Taetae.. human form please. And Jimin? please get Jungkook to come down"

Jimin nodded, pecking Taehyung's snout before using his vampire speed to get to his room, squealing quietly in amazement at his abilities. "kookie~ baby! wakey wakeyyyy~ its like afternoon already~" Jimin sang as he plopped onto the younger's sleeping form, tapping all over his face. "Kookie~ its breakfast time~ come on~" He whined when the younger moved only slightly, urging him to start shaking the younger. Until he was flipped onto his back with the younger hovering over him. Jimin pouted as he lightly smacked the younger's back. "show off- up up~ hyungie cooked something nice" He moved to get up but Jungkook firmly caged him in place with lips puckered. Though he let out a groan, Jimin still indulged in giving Jungkook his morning kiss before the two finally moved down to get breakfast with the rest.

The 7 members sat down and ate peacefully. It was almost as if everything was normal. Like Bangtan was still going on and they weren't disbanded. As if they were normal humans like everyone else. After all they were still brothers who were boys at heart even if they were different from one another. Jin scanned every member, smiling contentedly as he realises the fact that they would always be Bangtan. They would always be the boys that he would care for, look out for. Nothing would change that. He cleared his throat before speaking. "What's the plan for today?"

Looking at Jungkook and Jimin, the two only shrugged as they busied themselves with the food. Hoseok grinned as he swallowed his food. "I was planning to do research on myself. And Yoongi's breed" Taehyung raised his hand eagerly pointing at himself with his mouth full. Hoseok chuckled as he reached over and patted the younger's hair. "We'll research on you too" Jin shook his head. "I'll do it for us. I need to find out and check for myself what I can do. Namjoon ah, what will you be doing?" Namjoon looked up and swallowed his food. "Music? I've read enough about wolves to know what I can or can't do. I'll practice shifting later in the evening" Jin nodded as he clapped his hands. "well chop chop! start finishing your food and get started with your day"

Hoseok and Yoongi occupied the living room, the younger sitting on the  carpeted floor as the elder sat on the couch. Both had their laptops open and google chrome staring at them. Hoseok blinked repeatedly before turning to the elder. "What do I search- Do I just search merman? How to survive as a merman?" Yoongi shrugged with a slight pout. "Don't ask me- I don't know where to begin. What does my pup version look like?"

"cute" Yoongi whined as he slumped against the couch. "Yah~ Of course a puppy is cute but appearance- How'd I know my breed if I dont know how I look like-" Hoseok beamed sheepishly, resting his back against the elder's legs. "White. white furred.. sharp ears oh and your snout and canine.. medium sized " Yoongi typed in as Hoseok spoke. He scrolled through the page of a site that listed all types of dog breeeds with white fur. Nudging Hoseok who kept typing and deleting, he showed him the page. "Which do I resemble-" Hoseok frowned as he browsed through seriously. "None... oh this!" Hoseok beamed as he pointed at a picture he thought resembled the other the closest. Yoongi blinked. "Hoseok.. that's an arctic fox-" The two looked at one another, sharing an incredulous look. "I'm a fox?"

_

 

Jin and Taehyung settled comfortably in their room, Taehyung occupying the sofa in front of their bed which Jin occupied. Similarly, the two were busily looking through their respective laptops although Jin was the only one researching. Taehyung on the other hand, read online of a book that entailed myths and beliefs of mythical creatures. An hour and two passed before he yawned, stretching and cracking a few bones before standing up, plopping on the bed tiredly beside Jin who ruffled his hair adoringly. "Found anything yet?"

Taehyung whined as he snuggled into the elder's side. "Too much. Though I kinda wasted a while on fanfics. Seems like fans love making us mythical creatures. I'm either a vampire of beta wolf in one-" Jin laughed as he rubbed the younger's back. "No wonder you're dizzy like this" The younger let out an appreciative hum, nodding before peeking at the elder's laptop. "You made notes?" Jin nodded, proudly grinning. "I'm sorting out so we can share with the others later. I can memorise them but before I do, I wanted to make notes" Taehyung raised a brow before plopping down on the bed in defeat.

-

Jimin sniffled as he watched the screen where 'Fight For My Way' played. "This is so emotional.. they just love each other so much, why do they face so much challenges?" Jungkook rubbed the elder's back as he wiped the stray tears. "shh stop crying.. I think you cried more than Aera already" He pecked the elder's forehead only to be hit in the chest by Jimin. "You're just like Dongmannie. Protective muscle pig who doesn't know his words can hurt people. I swear if you have an ex that comes back to you everytime-" Jungkook cut the elder off by pecking his lips, letting out a soft chuckle as he pulled away. "Do you hear yourself? You're my first, Jimin. I have no exes before you"

Jimin blushed as he looked up at the younger, too flustered he's unfazed by the lack of hyung when the younger addressed him. He pouted slightly though a smile threatened to show. "You better"

-

Namjoon on the other hand had no inspiration for music so he took his time observing the couples briefly before he headed to to his own room. The small time he spent observing them he realised that no matter how much things may change they were ultimately the same and that they were still boys at heart. It was also then that he realised how eternally thankful he is for the members. That they were a huge part of his life and that would never change. No matter how different they were now.

-

By the time night had fallen upon the seven boys, it was needless to say that they were drained of energy. Minus the youngest couple Jimin and Jungkook who spent their day cuddling one another. Somehow they wordlessly gathered at the living room, plopping down on the couches tiredly after they ate the dinner Jin prepared for the exhausted boys. Jimin sat on the two seat couch with Jungkook beside him and Taehyung the cub on his lap as he lazily the cub's fur- Jungkook held in his urge to replace Taehyung with himself and chose to nuzzle Jimin's shoulder instead. Yoongi and Hoseok occupied the 5 seat couch with Namjoon on the other end and Seokjin between them.

Seokjin huffed as he slumped against Namjoon, pointing at Taehyung. "Look at that. He still prefers Jimin's touch compared to mine. Namjoon chuckled as he shook his head, whispering to the eldest. "I think he's still not over that.. incident between you two. You should talk it out" Seokjin looked at Taehyung who nuzzled Jimin's tummy as he purred. Was that it along?

Yoongi cleared his throat before breaking the silence. "We discovered something during our research session. I'm not a puppy. I'm a fox. An arctic fox to be precise" Jungkook blinked as he processed the information. "Don't arctic foxes have brown fur?" Yoongi nodded as he grinned smugly. "It's winter so its white. In summer my fur turns brown along the back with light grey around the abdomen. Google says its blue actually like dark blue. Who knows I might be a nine tailed fox hm?" Jimin giggled, eyes turning into crescents at Yoongi's smug expression. "that'd be so cool though"

Yoongi nudged Hoseok who started sharing. "I googled up and tried things. I can control water, lure and attract people with my voice and apparently cure illnesses or make potions but I doubt we actually make potions in this century." Jin clapped his hands together. "Ahhh I'm also granted the seduction thingy. They say I have power over time as I have showed that time. I can't turn back time though just freezing and slowing down. Other than that I'm granted magic for combat, immortality and moving things"  The members nodded as they processed the information.

Jin continued on, gesturing at Taehyung. "As for Tae, it's said that the white tiger symbolises loyalty and Guardian of the West. If you were to relate him to a season, he'd be Autumn. And a white tiger is king of the beasts after lions" Jimin chuckled as he Taehyung's fur. "Our cub TaeTae is a general? How cute" Jungkook grumbled as Taehyung purred at the attention given.  Namjoon frowned as he leaned forward, elbows resting on his knees, a grim expression on his face. "Taehyung's a cub still.. How'd he grow to a full grown?" Jin was quick to reply. "Nurturing. Feeding and training like a mother tiger would. Teach him how" Namjoon nodded. "I'll learn how to hunt with Yoongi hyung and Taehyung then"

Hoseok spoke up, straightening himself as he gestured to Jungkook. "The real problem is the masked men Jimin dreamt of right? The ones that are hunting Jungkook down because he's a royal pure blooded vampire" Jimin frowned, fiddling with sleeping Taehyung's fur with a slight pout. "As his powers get stronger, the closer they get to us" Jungkook slung an arm around Jimin's waist, pecking his neck as a form of consolation.  "It'll be okay. We have 6 different types of mythical creatures on our side while they're all vampires. We're on the stronger side"

Namjoon stood up, nodding. "We just have to train. Get ourselves stronger and then we can defeat the bad. We'll be good with time. Let's all get some sleep and rest. We'll start tomorrow morning alright? The training must be quick and fast if they're getting closer to us as we speak" Hoseok nodded, smile full of pride. "As expected, our leader nim who is now an alpha, taking initiative to lead" The group laughed amongst themselves, greeting one another good night and sweet dreams before heading to their respective rooms.

-

Jimin rested his head on Jungkook's chest, thumbing with the younger's fingers. "kookie.. It's so unique. You have a heartbeat. I feel like we're the vampire characters in Twilight" Jungkook chuckled lowly at the reference. "Bling bling skin?" Jimin scrunched his nose, looking up at the younger. "Luckily we don't have that" Comforting silence fall upon them once again. Jimin pushed himself up slightly, looking into the younger's eyes as he felt his heartbeat on his fingertips. "Jungkook ah... We'll be okay right?" Jungkook leaned down, pecking Jimin's forehead with a reassuring smile. "We'll be okay"

-

Yoongi and Hoseok held one another close, limbs entangled as they closed their eyes and relaxed every bit of themselves. Yoongi pecked Hoseok's forehead, pulling the younger closer as he left his lips lingering on the younger's forehead. "goodnight.. I love you Hobi" He could literally feel Hoseok's grin as the younger traced random patters over his shirt. "I love you too Hyung"

-

Jin stared at Taehyung who had long fallen asleep on Jimin's lap sometime during their team meeting earlier. He thought of what Namjoon had quietly whispered to him. namjoon was right. They never got to talk about what happened. the cub's soft white striped fur, he lets out a soft sigh. "You know I love you right? I haven't cleared it out with you and my family properly yet but I love you Taehyung ah. I love you so much" He leaned forward and pecked between Taehyung's closed eyes, rubbing his ear before lying down next to him and closing his eyes. "Goodnight Taehyung ah" He whispered into the dead night as sleep came to him.

-

Namjoon checked up on all the members before going back to his room. Call it a habit but he just felt the need to check up on them just like he always did since before their debut. He just needed to know and feel secure. That they were okay and doing well. The urge only seemed to grow after he found out he was a wolf- an alpha at that.  Staring at the ceiling of his bedroom, he wonders if he would find other wolves, just like in the many stories he read of wolf packs, mates, bonds. Somewhere along his daydream, sleep came to him and he dreamed of what he hoped would happen in the future.

-

The spirit of the moon watched over the 7 boys upon whom she had granted powers too. She labelled them as her Guardians. Proud as to how the boys seemed to manage well despite the very abrupt and quick transformations they had to go through. The big leap from a normal being's life that was stripped away from them and being thrown bare into the world of the unknown. They are doing good. Really good. Goodnight boys.. The moon smiled as she slowly orbited Earth.
