*** “concentrate Lee JooYeon! Use your shadow!”,

 

I growled as I duck onto the ground more when NamJoon blood vines cut the air above just an inch away from my head, cutting a few strands of hair as it slashed furiously and I roll over then look up with a deep scowl on my face as I glared at the smug looking boy just a few meter away from me with both hands lift slightly above his hips, palm facing upwards. His blood whips moving in threatening way, forming a huge wave of red around him while the conjurer eyes flashing bright red as he watch me with his eagle like sight,

 

“come on, I know you can do better than this” SeokJin annoying voice heard for the upteempth time tonight as he mentoring me in my training -that he and the other boys made for me- under the full moon. The big silver moon shine brightly illuminating us as my eyes mirrored its glow,

 

“heads up!”, my head snap back to NamJoon at the same time he throw his spear shaped blood and form a barrier just in time to save my neck, eyes widened as the shock evaporated from me before glared at the smirking NamJoon,

 

“what the hell?! You could kill me you assface!” I growled and the jerk just smirk wider at my outburst as he proceed to send more flying spears to me meanwhile he form a big black dog behind him from his bloods to do his binding -quite impressive control, I should give him that, attacking and conjuring that kind of trick needs full concentration and he did that almost effortlessly, no wonder he’s the second strongest- I keep my barrier intact as I let Nox materialize beside me and the wolf snarled right away, sensing the tense in the air as he fix his two silver orbs at the big dog my opponent has perfected already -the mutt was huge! Almost as huge as Nox-, Nox shivered happily at the sight of potential opponent before lunged forward without hesitation and the pair rolled over immediately, all snarls, growls, fangs and claws. I watch in awe at the fights before another strong whip slashed my barrier from my right side and I hissed in discomfort, turning my head quickly at the source of distraction only to find NamJoon sly smile before his kick send me flying smashing onto a rather huge tree at the back of the backyard, grunting heavily as I straighten my limp body,

 

I scowled at NamJoon, whose stood casually with both hands in his pockets as he look at me, “yah hyung!” JungKook protested for me as he start to make way to check on me but get held back by SeokJin's hand as the older boy keep his eyes on me, shaking his head slightly at Jimin and JungKook -the two was itching to come to my rescue- and whispered something. I saw TaeHyung watch us with his usual blank face with Nara clutching on his arm at the back of the group, a deep frown on her face. I gritted my teeth hard before wipe the dripping blood on the corner of my lips as I felt my anger triggered the shadows and clenched my fist, feeling a rather solid thing start to form in my fist and I gripped it harder. HoSeok face splitted into a rather dark smirks as I saw him from the corner of my eyes before I lunge forward,

 

Swinging the new weapon that shaped from the shadow, I watch NamJoon's face contorted into the look of horror before he reacted just in time when the sharp tip of my shadow weapon clashed with his own blood spear, sending him backwards from the strong blow. His shocked expression just triggered more power inside me as I smirked in triumph at change of wind and move to attack more, swinging the huge weapon in my hands with ease, sighing in contempt when I felt it dance with my every moves as if it’s my extended arm while NamJoon throw his useless attack towards me, his coordinated moves earlier scattered as he sloppily torn between defending himself and attacking me at the same time. Wrong decision,

 

Throwing a hard kick towards NamJoon side, I send him fly from my blow and crashed to the grounds, he hissed as he squinted one eye close, looking up at me. I lift an eyebrow while my shadows crept up on my prey and start to engulf him, start from his legs up and ready to give him one last final blow before a hand stopped me from behind and I turn my face to look at the intruder in annoyance,

 

“that's quite enough, you two, its a good fight” SeokJin calm voice came into the hearing as my mind cleared from all the adrenaline that clouding me and my grips on my weapon loosened, the shadows around NamJoon’s body evaporated into nothing. I lowered my arms while SeokJin help his brother up, patting his shoulder lightly and NamJoon grinned, showing his hyung his thumb before look away towards the two mutts that still rolling around on the ground and deformed his dog, leaving Nox bite on an empty air before he realized what’s just happening and proceed to stood on his four legs with obvious confusion on his face, I almost giggled at his lost expression,

 

“Take a look what you’ve been swinging around dangerously just now” SeokJin rather impressed voice snapped me back to my sense as I frowned the take a look at the weapon in my hand for the first time and let a surprised gasp out of my mouth,

 

A scythe, black regal looking scythe greeted my eyes as the shiny grip twinkled under the moonlight as if thousand of tiny black gem has planted on them but if you take a closer look, instead of gems like how I thought it be, layer and layer of black dusts covered it, it's the same black dust that my shadows always take a form as, no, cross that, its not covered with black dusts, it is made of from the very black dusts. From my shadows,

 

I breathed as I trace a finger from the black curved tips, gasped when my skin slashed open from the slightest touch and blood trickled down from the open wound. I make a slashing moves through the air and watch in awe when my slash formed round and round of black smokes from the slash before the smokes evaporated into thin air. The scythe itself wasn’t decorated with any fancy looking things but with its slim and regal looking form, its a mysterious beauty, like a darkness and night itself yet as bright and regal as the moon above,

 

“you look quite scary with that thing to be honest” NamJoon voice pull me back from the state I’m in as he lean forward from my back to examine the scythe in my hand closely, breathing into my ear and I jolted from the sudden shivers through my spine,

 

Clamping my lips tight, I turn around “that kick hurts” I hissed through gritted teeth and NamJoon blinked once before playful smirk formed on his face as he lean back and cross his arms, at the same time the rest of the boys snapped back from their trance like state and I’m tackled to the ground,

 

“get off me!” I yelled beneath JungKook and Jimin as the two idiot frantically check on any visible wounds on every part of my body. I smack JungKook’s head when his hands traveled too close towards particularly unappropriated part and he just grinned innocently at me before yelped when another two smacks landed square on the back of his head, courtesy of Jimin and SeokJin. I sweat dropped as I watch the maknae throwing a tantrums on his hyungs, saying that he only wanted to make sure that I was okay and yelled about how the two was the real ert for having the wrong thought. Really, whose the real ert, I wonder?,

 

Having enough of the quarrel, I point the tip of my newly found scythe at them -amazed at how flawless and weightless the thing in my grips- and they stopped instantly, backing away when it swatted dangerously close to their neck. They glared at me for this as I just roll my eyes back at them carelessly, “stop that habits talking about me as if I’m not here”. The three start to protest before a hand draped around my shoulders halt whatever they spurt about,

 

“nice” Yoongi said as he reach to trail a finger down the grip of my scythe with curiosity showed in his black orbs before lean away from me and smirked “how typical”. I lift an eyebrow at his out of the blue comment and the smirks widened as he shrugs his shoulders lightly,

 

“conjuring a weapon usually based on each person imagination of the way the person saw themself, NamJoon mainly shaped his blood into a spears, because he saw himself as a sharp edged and quick witted person,” the second oldest paused to point at the boy whose just lean his back on a garden lamp post while listening to us with his usual laid back expression,

 

I clamped my lips into a thin line as I waited for Yoongi’s next words and he throw me a rather playful looks “did you really associated Grim reaper with scythe like those classical tales?”. I reddened when his guess actually hits the nail, what? Call me childish or whatsoever you wanted but do tell me, isn’t scythe and -obviously- death what would came through your mind first when you imagined about Grim reaper? or is it just me?,

 

“oh shut up!” I groaned and push Yoongi’s face away as I dematerialized the scythe, turning it back to its original black smokes form before disappeared completely into thin air,

 

After making sure that I’m -and NamJoon- really okay, the rest of the boys finally settled back onto their perspective place, dragging me along and Nara pouted when she saw me walk to her spot beside TaeHyung which is my way to annoy her to be honest. Well after the little confrontation she did few days ago, our previously strained relationship has down to the worse even more, there’s not even single time slip without her glaring daggers at me whenever we meet and that goes the other way around with me constantly choosing to ignore her most of the time instead, or in rare occasion, teasing her like this by standing way too close to her favourite boy, TaeHyung. In my defence, I'm his official mate, not her, so I was the one that have the right to cling onto him not her -not that I want to in the first place though, yuck- and Nara clearly knows that fact well, that's why her hatred intensified ten time than they already is,

 

As I settled on one of the couch, fanning myself. Nox come running towards me then place his huge head on top of my lap after changing from his wolf form into the black Lion and I ran my hand through his thick black mane out of habits, his mane was exceptionally soft and warm that I couldn’t even resist the satisfied sigh out of my mouth. I saw JungKook and Jimin pouted in jealousy as they look at how affectionate I treat Nox from my peripheral views while the older boys just watch me in a wonder,

 

“what?” I ask flatly at them without turning my attention from the easement looks on Nox's face, they shake their heads lightly before look away with smile on their face and back to conversing between themself while Nara choose to ignore me now as she keep TaeHyung's attention on her, she looked desperate, almost pitiful, almost. I roll my eyes slightly before let out a surprised yelp when two arms sneaked around waist “pet me too” JungKook said behind me as he talk right into my ear and I felt goosebumps start to form on my skin at the way his breath caress the sensitive skin and frowned immediately. This boy skinship has rocketed to the worse!, I cursed mentally when he nuzzle his nose on the back of my neck,

 

I move to smack the maknae head before a hand beat me to it, Jimin yank the boy with deep frowns on his face as he tug the stubborn JungKook from me, but the later was boulder to move as he keep clinging onto me like a freaking koala. The tug and constant shakes from their movements start to make me dizzy and I exploded “yah! You two dumb dumb stop it! you makes me dizzy!”,

 

At my outburst, the two instantly stopped their antics, as well as turning the other attention back to us, “ah sorry baby you okay? Yah JungKook get away from her!” Jimin look at
