Reborn To Be A Star - Taekook
death
smell of blood , gunpowder and death filled in the air . the numerous helicopters sounded like beating drums for the execution of criminals. smoke rose in the night sky like an evil phantom about to swallow the moon and stars.
Inside the Vincent mansion a young man wearing all white suite watched this scene. he stood in dark sweeping his emerald eye across all the carnage below her.
he looked like an angel watching mortals kill each other while he remained detached and pure.
unfortunately he was not an immortal and fated to die tonight.
V
(closed his eyes with a sigh .
Open his eyes slowly as he took a last look around the happenings and turned towards the piano in the room.)
the five bodyguards protecting also followed the movement but remained silent and invisible.
he knew that this night would be his last . he didn't know whether his father, mother , elder brother were still alive. perhaps they were already dead. from what he saw outside the enimies planned to assassinate them all.
with his great hearing he could hear the footsteps of enimies approaching them and the movement of his bodyguards.
V
(gently sat in front of the piano and started playing as his fingers danced elegantly on the keyboard . )
he knew this was his last day and this music was the last peice he'll ever play and the leat he could do is to play music to accompany the poor souls who died today.
the door was broken and few of assassins came inside and started fighting with the guards.
the smell of blood and sweat grew stronger but the man unbothered by it kept playing his piano as if nothing was happening around him
the constrast between music and violence almost felt mystical
the bodyguards without caring for their lives kept fighting with the assassins as they were trained to protect their young master since childhood but being outnumbered finally all of them were dead
"hands in the air" shouted an assassin.
V
(doesn't care and kept playing the music.)
assassin - (fires a bullet on him.)
V
(got shot in his arms but didn't cared and kept playing his piano as blood continuously flowed from his wound.)
everyone in the room was mesmerized by his otherworldly beauty and elegance.
someone - we have orders . firee !!(gritting his teeth)
the man smilled elegentally before the bullets peirced his back. his blood showered up in the air like rose petals and fall on the ground like raindrops.
the music came to an abrupt stop.
his body slumped to the piano and fall on the ground with blood oozing nonstop from his body.
V
at last I am free. (voice like soft wishper.)
and he breathed his last breath.
awake
in the netherworld full of darkness
it felt like he was walking in the darkness for an eternity all alone.
his throat felt dry and rough burning with extreme thirst.
he needed maybe he could get it after he has crossed this dark passage.
he kept on walking in the darkness the thought of water releiving his sore throat kept him going ahead.
he didn't knew how long he walked maybe days or decades or maybe century he didn't knew. he only needed water
finally at some distance he saw a raw of light and rushed towards it in the hope of water.
.........................
in a big private hospital.
V
(opens his eyes slightly as it took his eyes a few moments to adjust to the light.)
V
(looks around towards the hotel like room filled with hospital equipments.)
V
w..a..t..e..r.. (speaks in a dry wishper like voice but since no one was there and his whole body was in pain so he had no choice but to wait for someone to come fast.)
after god knows how long hours , finally the door strode open and a nurse came in.
nurse - (saw him open eyes) you are awake. I'll call the doctor soon . oh my god it's a miracle. (goes out blabbering something)
V
(squints his eyes)
*korean? that woman was speaking korean.*
after a moment doctor came in he too shocked to see patient awake.
doctor - you woke up. how do you feel now.
doctor - you need water. nurse please bring him a glass of water and a straw.
after the nurse went to bring him water the doctor started examining him.
nurse - (came back with water and straw) here.
V
(tries to drink but couldn't as his muscles hurt but later after two three attempts he was able to drink water, but only after few drop he felt exhausted.)
however the feeling of water down his sore throat gave him an indescribable pleasure.
doctor - do you know your name young man
before he could answer his name name some foreign memories suddenly rushed in his mind.
V
(gasped utterly confused by this foreign memories.)
V
(looks sideways at the pillow to see a few blue hairs on it.)
V
*blue? isn't my hairs black.*
before he could thought any further he got a splitting headache and in the next second he fainted back
memories
after v fainted back doctor started panicking as he was alright just minutes ago and now he fainted back. so they started rushing and checking his health conditions.
V
(opens his eyes to see all black surrounding around him and there was only one ray of light there beneath him a man was standing there.)
V
(walks towards him. was about to speak to him about what place is this when the man turned back and looked at him. )
Kim taehyung
(turns back with a bright smile.)
V
(shocked to see man's face which exactly resembled him.)
Kim taehyung

V

Kim taehyung

Kim taehyung

Kim taehyung

V
(woke up from the strecher in an instant with heavy breathing which made the doctors scared. pulls out his oxygen mask.)

doctor hesitated and looked as his patients condition for few times before he nodded at his nurse.
after few seconds the nurse brought the mirror.
