Goodbye
The Prince Behind The Mask
Reika woke up in a dark room, she felt something around her wrist & ankles...then she noticed that red handcuffs were on her wrist and blue handcuffs were around her ankles...
'W-where am I?' Reika looked around
'U-unnie? W-where are you? Unnie!' Reika called out for Hyoyeon but she wasn't there
'Annyeong, princess~' a figure said
'P-prince Jin Ki?' Reika didn't notice that his voice was different but she saw his eyes had a bloody red color
'Why do you hate me? I haven't done anything to you...' Onew said
'A-Aniyo! Y-you hurt Princess Jessica!' Reika screamed
'I hurt her? Do you even know why I did that to her? I did that to her because I saw someone else I like...' Reika kept silent
'Hyuk Jae doesn't love you, and you're still thinking about him...' Onew reminded & made Reika frown
'You should be thankful of your not-real unnie...'
'W-what?'
'Hyoyeon isn't your real unnie, Prince Yesung is your real Oppa...'
'B-but, w-why am I with unnie?'
'Yesung tortured you, he always put you in an arranged marriage. He always compare you to others & always hurt you...'
'P-prince Yesung is like that?'
'Yes, you are lucky because Hyoyeon got you...'
'A-Aniyo...' Reika disagreed
'I-I prefer being with my real brother than a fake sister!' Reika tried to run but Onew shot a bullet up which made her stop
'I got you little runaway...' Onew smirked
'Reika!' Yesung's voice was near & Reika gasp
'Try to move & you can hear a bullet coming to you...' Onew threatened
'Reika!!!' his voice was getting louder
'Oppa!!!' Reika called out for him
'Don't call for him, he will only hurt you...'
'Oppa!' Reika called & moved
Onew pulled the trigger but before Reika was hit, Yesung pushed her...
'Go, Reika!' Yesung ordered but Reika didn't move
'GO!' Yesung yelled & Reika had no other choice but to run and hide
'Grr, you annoying jerk!'
'Keira, I know you're there...bring back everything to normal & no one will get hurt.' Yesung said
'Shut up, Jong Woon!' Onew yelled back
Then Reika heard a bullet fired & the next thing she saw, Onew fainting and her brother on the ground with blood from his head...
-------------------------------------
'No! Let me go! I don't want to see him! He shot Oppa!' Reika said as Sungmin was dragging her to Onew's room
'But you're the only one that he wants to talk to!' Sungmin whined
'NO! I WON'T SEE HIM AND THAT'S FINAL!' Reika screamed & escaped Sungmin's grip then went to her room
Onew saw the whole thing and looked down on himself...
'Sorry if I wasn't able to bring her...' Sungmin apologized
'It's alright, Prince Sungmin...thanks for trying...' Onew said but not taking his eyes of the floor
'I-I have to help Kyuhyun...see you later, Onew...' Sungmin waved & went to the chamber
'I almost killed Reika's brother, the reason why she hates me now. I just want Reika to...love me, the love I never felt in my life. But--' Onew's thoughts were disturbed when he saw his parents walking to him
'U-umma? A-appa?'
'Jin Ki! How dare you leave Princess Jessica on her own?!' his father said with an angry tone
'Jin Ki, I thought we talked about this...' his mother raised an eyebrow
'I can't be locked in that tower forever! I need to see Reika!' Onew said & his parents became more angrier
'Jin Ki, for the last time--you are engaged with Princess Jung Jessica! She loves you but that Reika doesn't! Don't love her if she doesn't love you!' Onew's appa yelled
'But I love Reika, s-she's the one I love! Not Jessica!'
'You promised that you'll do everything you can to make us happy! We will only be happy when you will marry Jessica!' Onew became silent at that moment
'Now go to that Kim Reika, say goodbye to her because you won't see her again!' Onew gasp at that command
'N-no! Y-you can't do this to me!'
'Yes, we can...now go...' the queen ordered but Onew had no other choice but to follow them
He went to Reika's room & sighed, he opened the door and then saw Reika on her bed covering her face with her hands...
'Princess?' Onew called out but Reika became frightened
'It's alright, princess...it's just me...' Onew tried to calm her down but failed
He realized that his parents were watching with an angry face but he just ignored it...
'Reika, please...please look at me. I'm still Onew, remember? W-we're always together, w-with SHINee, Henry & Mimi...' Onew said & held Reika's wrist, he then removed her hands from her face and Reika looked at him with tearful eyes
'L-let go of me, y-you hurt Yesung-Oppa...' Reika said
'W-wait, Reika--please listen...K-keira was inside me that time, I-I wasn't in control!' Onew explained but she didn't believe him
'No, no...you shot Oppa while I was hiding with red handcuffs for my wrists & blue ones for my ankles.' Onew stared at the corner of the room where the red & blue handcuffs were thrown
'Reika, believe me...I would never hurt you, I-I can't do that to you. I care about you...'
'If you DID care, why did you have to hurt Oppa?' Reika glared at him
'Hurry up, Jin Ki!'
'See? Even your parents doesn't like me, so why do you care? You should care about Princess Jessica, your own fiancée.' Reika looked away
Suddenly, the couple went inside the room...
'Jin Ki, princess Jessica is waiting...' her mother said
'You have to choose...is it us & your fiancée? Or that girl you care about who doesn't love you?' Reika kept shut after hearing that while Onew was in deep thought
'I promised that I'll do everything to make umma & appa happy when they come back, you don't brake promises...but I can't just leave Reika, I-I love her and I care about her.' Onew thought
'Please forgive me, Reika...' Onew whispered & sighed, Reika tried to stop her reaction after she heard him apologize
'I-I'll...go with you, umma & appa...' Onew said while looking away
'Finally, the Jin Ki we knew came back...' his appa said & left
'We will wait with Princess Jessica outside...' the queen said & followed
'I was right, you don't brake promises...' Reika said
'Reika, I'm so sorry...' Onew apologized & hugged her
'What's the difference between...Onew & Jin Ki? They're just the same, people who earn their trust and one day--they would hurt your loved one. Am I right?'
'Reika, please...d-don't you remember the only way to kill the witches?' Onew asked but Reika just ignored it, instead--she held Onew's hand tight
'Annyeong, Onew-Oppa...' Reika hugged him & the left, leaving a necklace with a ring on Onew's hand
Onew stared at the necklace Reika gave back to him, it was the necklace with the engagement ring...
He then heard a conversation between a royal minister, King Leeteuk & Princess Reika...
"What do you mean we have to go to England?"
"You have to go there for your own safety..."
"I-I won't leave that Hyoyeon torturing this kingdom!"
"Torture? The people loved her ruling the kingdom! No one hates her!"
"WHAT?! NO!"
"Leeteuk-ssi, I would like to go to England..." Onew knew that was Reika's voice
"B-but why?"
"There's a lot of bad happenings here, can't we just go there? I-I want a peaceful place...a-and, I might find someone I l-like there..." Reika'a voice explained
"But--"
"Then it's settled! Prince Yesung & Princess Reika will go to England tonight~" the royal minister said & left
'Reika's...leaving?' Onew thought & went outside, he stopped when he saw Reika
'R-Reika, a-are you...l-leaving? B-because of...m-me?' Onew asked her but she kept silent
'Answer me, princess...is it because of me that you're leaving to England? Are you going to England so you won't see me?' Onew asked once again but she kept shut
'Tell me the reason, Reika!' Onew held her shoulders & scared Reika
'Fine! I want to go there because no one likes me here! Not even my own brother, get it?! Now leave me alone!' Reika screamed
'U-umma & appa?' his parents came back with Jessica
'Stay away from my fiancée!' Jessica shoved Reika away & hugged Onew
'I will stay away from him in one condition...' Reika suddenly said
'What?'
'You two will order the royal court to stop Kim Kibum & Lee Taemin's punishment'
'Too late, Kim Kibum already died a while ago...'
'W-what?!' Reika was in shock
'Didn't you see? He "accidentally" shot Kim Kibum somewhere...' Jessica said & Reika glared at Onew
'Y-you killed him?! H-how could you...k-kill Key-umma?!' Reika was about to attack him but Leeteuk stopped her
'Reika, calm down...'
'Aniyo! H-he killed Key-umma!' Reika kept trying to escape but failed
'Reika, I didn't--'
'Shut up, you liar! You said that Key-umma was your friend, but now you killed him! You lied to me, Minho-ssi, Jonghyun-ssi, Key-umma & Taemin!!!' Reika yelled at the top of her voice in anger
'Don't you dare call Jin Ki a liar!' Jessica said
'I don't care, Jessica! Just get him out of my life!' Reika ran to the throne room making Leeteuk follow him & Onew hurt
'It's alright, Jin Ki~ You still have me~' Jessica flirted with him but Onew just pushed her away
'Jin Ki!' his father called but he just ran to find Reika
-------------------------------------
Reika cried in the throne room...
'How are you, Reika?' Keira appeared in front of her holding the handcuffs once again
'Remember these?' Reika gasp & wasn't able to move
'No! No! No!'
-------------------------------------
'Reika! Reika, open up!' Leeteuk called
'Keira...s-she's inside...' Onew sensed the girl's presence
'WHAT?!' Leeteuk slammed the door open (which was easy for him since he had gravity powers like Yesung) & saw Reika unconscious on the ground with handcuffs on her angles and wrists but they were glowing
-------------------------------------
Reika was shivering in fear while she was sleeping, Onew was guarding her like always but his thoughts were scaring him...
'P-prince Eunhyuk...p-please come b-back!' Reika woke up after her nightmare & Onew held her hand to calm her down
'I-it's alright, Reika...'
'I-I can't take them off...' Reika stared at the handcuffs
'Don't worry, princess...I'm sure it will come off soon' Onew said as he hugged Reika to give comfort
'Please forgive me, Reika...I-I have to go, for the sake of my parents' happiness.' Reika's tears fell after hearing that
'I promise that I'll do everything to bring Hyuk Jae back for you...' Onew kissed her lips once again & something happened to Reika
Onew pulled away and opened his eyes & saw a different Reika...
'R-Reika...y-you're...back to normal. Y-you're an adult again!' Onew hugged her tight despite the handcuffs
Then 2 guards pulled away Onew from Reika...
'Oppa!' Reika didn't let go of Onew's hands
'Reika!'
'Let go, Jin Ki...' his mother ordered
'Onew-Oppa!'
'Stay away from my son, you !' the queen slapped Reika causing her to accidentally let go of his hands
'NO! REIKA!' Onew was dragged away leaving his mother & Reika
'Stay away from my son!' the queen scolded & left
'Onew-Oppa!' Reika screamed
