The Forgotten Band

Description

Do you guys still remember NU’EST? Probably not, because Pledis is too busy promoting Seventeen instead. Meanwhile, NU'EST is stuck in Japan, abandoned completely by Pledis. NU’EST can no longer stand this. Frustrated and angry at the oppression that they face, they come up with an elaborate plan to ruin Seventeen and thus ruin the company.

Foreword

We were once at the top, but how low we’ve stooped,
From rookie trinity, to the forgotten group.
And now the dongsengs have raised the bars,
They’ve slayed the charts and collabed with stars.

It’s not fair to us; it’s oppression, you see.
We’re denied what we have the potential to be.
This is injustice, and so we decide,
A course of action by which we’ll abide.
The lightest of which would surely appall…
That Seventeen group: we’ll destroy them all.

 


A/N: Okay, so this was just one of those crazy ideas I had on a whim. Making my favorite bands evil is a guilty pleasure of mine.

I actually got the idea after thinking about a story idea for a writing competetion. So I'm going to enter this in the Wicked Writing Contest here. Hopefully, I'll be able to finish it before the deadline!

I will also submit this to the ~Happiness~ Writing Contest here, because it's worth a shot!

I also want to say right now before anyone gets the wrong idea: I LOVE SEVENTEEN. I ADORE THEM. THEY ARE LIFE, AND NEVER WOULD I WANT TO PIT THEM AGAINST NU'EST. This fic is just for fun and in no way represents an inner dissatisfaction with Seventeen AT ALL.

WARNING: Profanity. And possible character death. Maybe I'll make NU'EST go full-on evil. We'll see. Yep, it would be one of those fics.
Perhaps too? I'm a er for those stories where the bad guys fall in love with the victims. We shall see where my crazy mind takes me :D


Also, just in case you are not familiar with stage names (because I do switch around a lot, especially with Woozi and S.Coups)

S.Coups = Seungcheol

Woozi = Jihoon

Hoshi = Soonyoung

Pledisboss = Han Sung Soo = CEO of Pledis

JR = Jonghyun

Jun = Junhui

Baekho = Dongho

NuNeen
i will post it the day that Pledis releases NU'EST's teasers.

Chapter 26: again, damn this really did predict things lol seventeen would go on to get millions of albums sold, top the charts, and be one of the biggest kpop groups. its lowkey kinda scary how accurate these things became lol also yes han sungsoo is the root of all problems
p.s. i would pay money to have that song written at the very end, i hope its a real song bc i love the sinister feel it has

Chapter 1: damn i know this was written in 2015 but it honestly predicted a whole lot about nuest's promotions in japan, hell they would still be heavily promoting in japan right until before they went on produce 101 season 2 in 2017. for a long while, they would be stuck in japan

although i can't imagine this---mainly because the nu'est guys are too floofy for their own good---i'm itching to read this. ; u ; sounds like it'd totally do justice to baekho's initial image in pd101 and gaaaaaaaaaaaa.

Chapter 25: Finally...I've finished reading it! (sometimes I wish my real life responsibilities wouldn't stand on my fangirl's daily life...LOL). This was such a nice reading!....Although I have to admit the story seemed to be more tense, creepy, keeping-you-on-the-edge-of-your--chair and dynamic in first half chapters of it (just my personal feeling). As for pledisboss having turned out to be the main culprit, aka 'mastermind' as you've named him....well, I'm not surprised...and I think he actually fits better for these kind of actions than Junghan's mom :). Wish I could leave a more sound and helpful 'critique' but my mind refuses to come up with anything more... Overall, thanks for having come up with such an intriguing story, and frankly, thanks to your story as well, I'm getting to think that remembering all 13 members in one group is probably not that hard...LOL.
P.S. You'll probably see my annoying comments in your current work as well, see ya ;)

Chapter 21: Don't want to be 'that' person who keeps mentioning P101 after months since its final episode, but....the following thought has just struck me. I somehow knew this story was written long before guys joined the show but....damn....why do CEO's certain actions/thoughts described in this very chapter seem to be very likely his VERY actions/thoughts he probably got when the NU kids finished their participation in the show? You must be a seer! :) ;)
P.S. I hate being that 'crazy' fan/reader who's getting inclined to see things when they are actually not there, but this is what your story's being doing to me....LMAO

Chapter 19: Oh gosh...can hardly gather my thoughts... ㅠ ㅠ ㅠ. Leader mentions only 11 members? 'Cause Woozi is imprisoned & isn't with the rest of boys? OK...
S.Coups - that was probably the best option he could have come up with...
Moral: everyone has sooner or later pay for his/her mistakes??!! :/

Poor Woozi...Poor Baekho...ㅠ ㅠ ㅠ
