Chapter Text
Jungkook was smiling, looking out the window to the snow covered small hills that shone under the pale blue moonlight, and tall trees in the distance. Snow was everywhere, and his eyes reflected the way it sparked while slowly nodding to the rhythm of the song that was playing in the car.
Yoongi was driving, and he could see from the front mirror that Taehyung had dosed off in the back to the soothing sound of the relaxing music. His cheek was pressed against the cold window, and his warm breath was creating small puffs of white on the cold glass. Sometimes he shifted slightly but never woke up and as a matter of fact, Jungkook knew that Yoongi was driving very carefully and avoiding holes so he could sleep fine.
Namjoon was on his phone as usual, probably checking their Twitter account or more likely reading some philosophical pdf book on his phone. The blue light radiating from the screen illuminated his face which was turned downward, his eyes narrowed and focused on whatever that he was looking at.
Jungkook smiled at himself and leaned sideways to peek a look at Jimin, who was looking out the window just like he did a few minutes ago; but there was a distant look in his eyes and by the way that he was chewing his bottom lip, Jungkook could tell that he was deep in thought about something important. He wanted to call out his name and pull him out of his own mind, but then decided against that and just stared out the front window.
Yoongi was softly humming to the music, and his deep voice was kind of soothing to hear. The car was warm, and they were all happy and content. They were coming back from a little short vacation-like trip in their day off, and they had so much fun that day that Jungkook thought it was enough for an entire month of working their asses off!
He wished they could do more of these small trips to interesting nearby towns to experience something new, and have a little bit of fun for themselves for the first time in forever; but he also loved the work that they were doing and he didn't want to let down army. He loved them too much to let go of them so easily for just fun.
He turned his head to look at Yoongi when he changed the music, and frowned a little bit when he didn't see Seokjin hyungs car in front of them where it had been almost all the time.
"Where's the other car hyung?" He asked in a hushed tone, and looked at Yoongi.
There was a large truck in front of them now, which he couldn't clearly see through the heavy fog that was now everywhere and made the road look like a blurry picture over the window.
Yoongi looked at him for a second, and then squinted at the road again to look ahead carefully.
"Uh...don't worry Kook. They went ahead; I'm driving slow cuz the road's more bumpy in here and Jimin and Tae are both dosing off."
Yoongi explained shortly, and Jungkook realised that he was right. Taehyung and Jimin were working hard and they were tired. They needed the rest whenever and wherever they could get ut and so did Jungkook. He felt his eyes getting heavy too, since he was getting less sleep hours per week these days like every one else, but when Namjoon started talking from the back seat, he listened carefully to his deep voice rumbling slightly in a hushed tone.
"Go to sleep Jungkook, I'll wake you up when we're there."
"Will you be ok driving all the way back to the dorm?"
Jungkook asked while leaning his head on the window already.
Yoongi hummed, and that was enough for him to close his eyes in what seemed like for a fraction of a second to him but must've been minutes or hours later cuz now they were completely out of the town that they were leaving.
There was a blinding white hot pain in his arm, and he had a feeling that if he moved it, it would rip into shreds, and that was when he registered the broken bones. "Shattered", his mind supplied unhelpfully, and he blinked sleep and pain away from his eyes to see what had happened.
The music was still playing, and it was strangely soothing while his mind was sending signals of a panic to his entire body while he didn't even know why!!
So he looked around, and the first thing he saw was the shattered glass of the window that he was leaning his head on, which wasn't completely broken but angry webs was all over it that didn't even let him take a peek at the outside.
Wind was howling strongly, and the sound was kind of scary, especially when he looked down and saw his painful arm crushed between metal and seat. Now he was feeling the pain tenfold, and quickly averted his gaze away from the bone and blood that could be seen where it should have been inside.
But then in horror, he noticed that probably the back of the car where jimin was sitting right behind him must've been even more damaged. The metal was pushed inwards with so much force that had destroyed his arm so badly, and Jimin might've gotten the worst of it!
This thought made panic and bile rise in his chest, and he thanked God that he couldn't feel all of the pain that he should be feeling right now cuz he felt like screaming his lungs out until he ran out of breath and died.
So Jungkook just swallowed his cries of pain, and slowly, tried to move his painful neck and hoped he wouldn't kill himself just by wanting to turn his broken neck, but when he did it with a lot of pain and nothing worse happening, he was about to sigh from relief but the next thing he saw made him scream.
His scream almost swallowed the sound of music, and got lost in the wind's loud howling, and Jungkook didn't even know when he stopped, he just noticed the rivers of tears running down his face, and sobs wracking his painful body and causing his arm more pain, and making him cry even harder.
He couldn't believe what his eyes were seeing, and with every broken sob wished that he was dreaming. Right now he wished a million things hadn't happened today, and he was begging every existing god out there that this was just a dream. A cruel, painful, terrifying nightmare.
But moments passed, and the gruesome image in front of his eyes didn't morph into the white ceiling of his dorm room, and still he couldn't believe his own two eyes.
Right beside him, was Yoongi. His hyung. Who was slumped forward in his seat and God...there was so much blood...
The thing that made Jungkook want to gouge his own eyes out just to unsee what he was seeing, was the big, thick metal rod that ran right through Yoongi...
He blinked his eyes fast, and he would've pinched his arm to make sure he wasn't dreaming if only ut wasn't already crushed; and his other free hand was reaching out towards his hyung subconsciously, but the mere thought of brushing all that blood made him gag in between his hard sobs, and he stopped tugging at his injured arm to get near Yoongi hyung.
He looked at the metal rod, and all the blood that it was coated in, and he took a shuddering breath in and bit on his split, bloody lip to stop himself from crying out his name desperately.
He looked past his hyung's blue-black bangs that covered his eyes, and took a breath in and leaned forward to get a good look at his face, he saw bloodied saliva dripping from his lips in a thin line, right onto the metal that went through him.
Fresh tears flooded his eyes, and his vision instantly blurred.
'Blood is never good. Blood from mouth is even worse...it's so much worse. oh God...oh God...oh God...oh God...oh God...oh God...oh...no no no no no no no no no nononononononono please no...please...'
His sobs this time shook his body even more, making him scream from pain but this time he heard Namjoon.
"Kook? Kook oh my God are you ok?!!"
Jungkook could hear the fear and fright in his hyung's tone, and the way his voice shook while saying every word, it didn't help his nerves to calm down in the slightest. He sobbed even harder, and gathered all his will to croak out a question.
"H...hyu...what happened?!!"
Namjoon groaned, and closed his eyes. He took a deep breath which Jungkook could hear, and let it out in an unsteady exhale.
"A truck..."
He stopped and took a wet breath, discomfort and pain visible in his voice, and tried one more time.
"A truck was right in front of us...and it got out of control."
He gulped, and continued weakly.
"It stopped suddenly and, th...there was a car right beside us...Yoongi gave them space to pass so we took the burnt of it before he could pull out...Are you ok Kook? Please answer me."
Namjoon talked in a more or less steady tone, and it made Jungkook look over his shoulder at his hyung to see what had happened to him, and he wished that he hadn't.
Joon was sat upright, and his upper half was fine, but when you looked down, that was when the nightmare began.
One of his legs were crushed, another metal rod barely missing the other and just chopping off a part of his meat and muscles sparing the bone. His head was tuened to the right, and You could say he got lucky in comparison to what had happened to Yoongi hyung.
Before Jungkook could panic even more, Namjoon which had probably guessed that he would be terrified started his attempts at calming him down.
"Jungkook I know it seems scary but I'm fine..."
"Hyung..." Jungkook breathed in, and cried out in a hushed voice.
"No, Jungkook; I'm fine I promise. I'm in a lot...of pain right now but I'll be fine. Just breathe...ok? Can you do that for hyung?"
When there was no response from him, Namjoon pressed more.
"Jungkook, can you do that for me?"
Jungkook nodded his head, and tried to calm his frantic, loud breathing and he was about to ask Namjoon why he hadn't said anything about Yoongi, but then he heard Jimin groaning and crying from pain, and his eyes snapped to the front mirror to see what was happening to Jimin, but he couldn't see much from the knocked off mirror; so he turned his head around, ignoring how painful it was, and looked at Namjoon who's head was still in Jimin's direction, and pleaded with his eyes.
Namjoon wanted to smile at him, but he couldn't just do that in this situation so he averted his gaze, and looked Jimin up and down, then closed his eyes and sighed.
Jimin whined, and Jungkook didn't need to see him to know that he was in pain and silently crying. He muffled another scream of pain, and hit his head to the seat.
"We need to get help."
Get help...get help...get help...but how??
They need to get out of the car, but all of them were injured badly and neither could move. His arm was stuck and he dreaded moving it even in the slightest.
Namjoon's leg was stuck and blood was pouring from his left leg where the rod had penetrated it.
Yoongi was unconscious; and even if he wasn't, he couldn't even breathe properly. Jungkook could hear the laboured breaths comin and going through his lips, wet with blood and raspy, barely even existent.
He turned around once more, and his eyes landed on Taehyung which wasn't moving, and in a split second he could feel happiness and fear at the same time.
He had forgotten about Taehyung. He could save them!
And he felt dread as soon as he noticed his injuries. There was so much blood, and so many cuts oozing thin streams of it through his sky blue shirt that it was so scary. Jungkook wished that he hadn't slept in the first place, because he hadn't even seen what had happened! He was just seeing blood everywhere he lookd, and all his hyungs were hurt and he couldn't do anything!
He looked at Namjoon, and his head was still turned towards Jimin, speaking in hushed tones. Jungkook took a deep breath and asked.
"Hyung...Jiminie...are you ok? What happened to you?"
He heard the talking stop, and insisted.
"Hyung I can't see you please...please tell me."
"I'm fine Kook..."
He heard Jimin mutter, breathless and it was obvious that talking hurt him so he stared right at Namjoon, and asked in a stern voice.
"Hyung what is wrong with him?"
Namjoon sighed, and bit his lip hard. Jungkook knew what was happening; as more time passed, they all started feeling their actual pains more and more, and as his arm was the main source of his tears now, he knew that Namjoon was in a lot of pain too.
"His ribs Jungoo...I think his ribs are broken...he's pretty much trapped between the seats and the door..."
They heard Jimin take a tentative inhale of oxygen, and let out a weak "Yoongi". Jungkook saw Namjoon frown, and wondered why he wasn't turning his head around to look for himself and instead asked.
"What about Yoongi?!"
Fear lacing his every word.
Jungkook heard Jimin sniffle, and said.
"He's not ok hyung...I'm scared..."
While trying not to hyperventilate at the same time and get his emotions under control.
He now saw Namjoon's hand shaking, and heard him ask.
"How bad is it?"
Still trembling and not looking over.
"It's bad hyung."
A sob left Jimin, and Namjoon hushed him.
"Shhh....shhhh....it's ok Jiminie...he's gonna be fine, we're all gonna be fine just don't move ok? Your condition is not so good either; just keep breathing slowly and don't move too much, ok?"
Jimin didn't say anything, but his silence was enough for an answer. Namjoon closed his eyes, not opening them for a while, just to be startled by a loud, terrified scream. Jungkook's head snapped towards the sound, and he saw Taehyung flailing his tangled limbs through the seatbelt.
He called out his name 8 times, finally catching his attention by the ninth one.
"Tae...calm down please...you're gonna hurt yourself."
Taehyung calmed down a little bit, stopping flailing and looking at him with so much fear in his eyes that made Jungkook want to look away and pretend that they weren't in this situation. He just remembered that Taehyung was sleeping during the crash, and probably had no idea what had happened just like him, but then he started talking and Jungkook didn't envy him one bit.
"Yoongi? Yoongi hyung?? Yoongi! Oh my God...YOONGI!YOONGI NO! JUNGKOOK PLEASE DO SOMETHING DO SOMETHING DO SOMETHING PLEASE I'M BEGINNING YOU!"
He just started full on crying and screaming, and that was when Jungkook noticed that the rod had probably pierced through the seat and Taehyung was met with a rod in between or through one of his legs and a lot of blood that Jungkook just knew would be in the back of the seat from his hyung's injuries and profuse bleeding.
"Calm down Tae, breathe."
Namjoon almost commanded, and Tae ceased his screaming and looked at him.
"Hyung there's a lot of blood!!!"
"I know Tae, just...try to be calm. Can you move?"
Taehyung looked at himself, and his breathing just got ragged the moment he noticed his own injuries. His throat tightend, and he started taking laboured breaths through his mouth when...
" 'ey kid...you gonna s-sssuffocate youself like...t-that, calm...down."
Jungkook thought his neck might've snapped by the way he turmed towards a talking Yoongi, and stared at him with big eyes that weren't blinking and were about to pop out of their sockets.
Taehyung stopped immediately, and blurted out.
"Hyung...?"
Jungkook saw Yoongi swallow a mouthful of blood, before his head lulling forward and slump again, his mouth opening involuntarily and more blood dribbling out. His wet breathing was louder and further apart from each other, and Jungkook thought he may never forget the way that blood was shooting forward from the edges of where metal met flesh.
How Yoongi was able to speak in that state was beyond Jungkook, but he heard Namjoon calling his name, and answered with a shaky 'yes'.
"Talk to him. Don't let him fall sleep or unconscious, ok?"
Jungkook nodded, and he didn't care if Namjoon could or couldn't see him, he just couldn't reply. So he listened to Namjoon talking to Taehyung again.
"Tae. I need you to tell me if you can move, I can't see you."
Taehyung turned towards him, still wanting to talk to Yoongi, but still answering yes. Namjoon almost sighed from relief, but asked another question instead.
"Do you think you can get out of the car?"
There was a long pause, and Namjoon called Jungkook's name again, this time with more urgency.
"Jungkook! Talk to him!"
Jungkook remembered his mission, and wracked his brain for something to say amd when he couldn't find anything good, he just asked.
"Are you ok hyung?"
"I can try...?"
Jungkook heard Taehyung finally answer Namjoon's question, and he felt fear rising in his chest when none came from Yoongi.
"Hyung? Hyung please say something. Just make a sound if you can hear me."
He stared at him intensely, noticing Taehyung shifting in the back seat and jerking the door knob. When the door just simply opened without a problem, almost everyone but Yoongi sighed from relief.
Jungkook swallowed, and raised his voice, reaching out towards Yoongi but wasn't able to touch him since his other arm was stuck.
"Yoongi hyung!!! Answer me God dammit."
"Shhh...."
His eyes snapped up to his lips again, and he noticed them moving slightly without making a sound, and even if he was making a sound, it was muffled by the noises of the door jeering open and Taehyung groaning from pain.
"Hyung?"
He pressed more, ignoring the sound of feet hitting the ground outside of the car and a cold breeze sweeping inside and making everyone shiver. This time, he barely registered what Yoongi was saying.
"Sh-uht uuup..."
This made him let out a soft, small chuckle despite the terrifying situation, and the pain in his arm and whole body. He shook his head, taking a deep breath and closing his eyes to gather his thoughts together, trying his best to ignore the pain and breathe through it.
He heard Taehyung shuffle outside, and looked at Yoongi again who was panting now. He noticed his hand was shaking, slowly inching up toward the rod. His eyes were blinking fast, as if he had just noticed the metal thing that was wedged inside his body, and wanted to explore it.
As if Jimin had noticed the shift in Yoongi, Jungkook could hear him whispering his name, but it got lost in the voices of the loud cold wind howling outside and Namjoon talking to Taehyung.
"Tae...I know you're hurt too and I know it's not easy but I need you to go find help..."
Jungkook looked at Yoongi, his hand hovering over the metal, shaking even more and panting even harder. His pupils were dilated, the fear apparent in his single eye that Jungkook could see. He was terrified of what he was seeing and he didn't know what to do.
"Hyung don't you have your phone with you? We can call with that...I...I really don't think that I can walk."
Taehyung pleaded with him, and Namjoon took a deep breath.
"Mine ran out of battery half an hour ago. Jimin's is on his right side."
That was where the big dent in the door was currently crushing his ribs, Jungkook noticed.
"Yoongi hyung probably can't even move."
'No shit!' Jungkook thought to himself.
"Kook? Can you reach your phone?"
Jungkook tore his eyes away from a wheezing Yoongi, searching all over his body for his phone, but not being as lucky as he hoped. The search took him a few moments, but then again he was empty handed.
"I-I don't think...hyung I can't find it I'm so sorry..."
Fresh tears formed behind his eyelids, and his breathing got frantic again, his own good hand searching every pocket in every inch of his clothes and still there was no phone and he was panicking again. They were gonna die here and it was his fault!
"Jungkook...Jungkook! Calm down it's ok. Calm down Kook please!"
Namjoon almost shouted the last sentence, making him stop searching and looking at him from where he was sitting with his big eyes pleading.
"He..."
There was a loud intake of breath, and then Jimin continued.
"He left it with Jin hyung in his car..."
Was all he said, before getting quiet again.
Jungkook felt like he wanted to punch himself in the face but he just slammed his head to the seat and groaned.
"It's ok...Tae I think there's no other option. you're the only one...who can walk and even move right now, please..."
Taehyung hissed, examining his legs and biting on his lips, squeezing his eyes shot and breathing deeply. Jungkook saw him nod, and wanted to tell him to take care of himself because he was still bleeding but it seemed like it had slowed down a lot but he was still worried.
He was looking at him when he heard a choking sound coming from beside him and he turned around quickly, seeing his hyung choking on his own blood and spit. It attracted Taehyung's attention too, and he moved forward to take a better look at Yoongi from the shattered window.
A loud gasp was heard, and then Taehyung's loud panicked crying. There was a muffled sound of something hitting the ground, and a coarse scream and a string of 'oh my God oh my Gods'.
Namjoon groaned, and started trying to calm Taehyung down, but it seemed nothing was working until they heard Yoongi speak up again, this time more strained and painful than the last.
"T-Tae..."
Namjoon stopped talking immediately, and Yoongi repeated himself.
"Tae."
This time Taehyung heard it as well, quietening his cries and standing up on wobbly feet.
"...'m fine k-kiddo...j...jusss...go gedelp..."
His words slurred together, and Jungkook saw his head lulling from side to side, the blood and saliva mix coming out of his mouth redder and thicker than before. And this made him worry even more. He wanted to scream at Taehyung to hurry up and bring help, but he knew he was covered in cuts all over his body and hurting but he was scared and he couldn't help it!
"You heard him Tae. If hyung says he's fine, then he's fine. Just go get help, ok?"
Finally there was the sound of feet hitting the snow covered asphalt, and a car whooshing by without even slowing down to see what was happening in the accident site.
Taehyung left without closing the door, and they could hear his footsteps scrunching away in the thick snow. The loud wind was howling, now closer and colder but it still rang inside the car when Yoongi let out a sound that seemed like chuckling, and everyone was confused.
Jungkook looked at him like he was seeing something unbelievable, not believing the upward turn of his lips that looked exactly like a broken wide smile.
"Yoon?"
Jimin called him tentatively, and Jungkook saw his shoulders shaking from laughter and he was getting more confused by the second.
" 'm f-fine Jiminie..."
"Yoongi you're gonna be fine..."
This time it was Namjoon, and Jungkook couldn't help saying.
"Hyung I'm scared..."
Yoongi turned his head toward him, and both boys were met with such a strong tide of fear in each other's eyes that they both startled, and Jungkook thought he was dreaming the stray single tear that dropped on the metal, hitting it with a weak splash and sliding down the polished surface.
This made Jungkook start crying too, and something shifted in Yoongi's gaze. He looked at him as if he was the one on the brink of death, and smiled.
He fucking smiled at him!!!
Jungkook started sobbing, repeating 'hyung, hyung, hyung' like a mantra. But what stopped him was Yoongi coughing, this time bringing up blood and bile onto the rod. He saw him bite his lip until he drew blood, and the poor maknae didn't know how much more he could bleed until he lost it all and died eventually.
The thought terrified him but before his brain could manage yet another panic attack, Yoongi finally screamed.
That was the moment his world shattered.
Yoongi started crying and screaming, his short and ragged breathing hurting him even more along his screaming. It made his chest and stomach move with every breath and scream, hurting and bleeding more and more.
This time Namjoon panicked, shouting over Yoongi's coarse screams.
"Jungkook do something! What is wrong with him?!"
He sounded scared and lost, and that was when Jungkook knew that he really had no idea what was going on and what to do, so he ignored the question, and tried to calm Yoongi down.
"Hyung...hyung calm down you're hurting yourself. Please!...Please!"
Yoongi almost calmed down, abruptly stopping his screaming but still desperately trying to take deep, long breaths and failing miserably.
"Hyung it's ok...you're gonna be fine I promise. Just try to calm your breathing ok? It'll hurt less I promise."
That one didn't even go across the fuzzy haze in his mind, still trying to get as much oxygen to his lungs as possible but ending up just hurting himself more.
Jungkook tried reaching out again, angry that the stupid door had trapped his damn arm and he couldn't just get closer and simply touch his hyung.
"Hyung..."
This time the call came out even more broken than he intended, showing how much he was on the edge of breaking down, and that caught Yoongi's attention. He turned and stared at him for the second time, his left hand coming up shakily and swiping the blood off his mouth.
Jungkook noticed that he didn't want him to see he was in pain, and his breathing had become a lot calmer, back to the same short wet pants like before.
"That's it hyung, you're gonna be just fine hold on a few more minutes and Tae will bring help."
Yoongi looked at him, blinking his tears away and nodding, sharp inhale and exhales flooding the car in their sounds.
This time Jungkook smiled at him, and he felt the tension leaving his body, but he also noticed the slight shiver that ran through his body and then continued shaking uncontrollably.
He frowned but got distracted when Namjoon asked him.
"Kook I can't turn my head, what has happened to Yoongi?"
There was a pleading tone to his voice, and Jungkook side eyed Yoongi before answering.
"Th...the metal rod. Just like the one in your l-leg..."
He took a deep breath, inwardly cursing at his crushed, throbbing hand. He felt a pressure growing in his throat and hissed.
"Where the hell is Taehyung?!!"
"Jungkook!!"
Namjoon's call brought his thoughts back to track, and he swallowed. He just didn't want to say it out loud, he couldn't. If he said it, then this nightmare would be true and Yoongi hyung could be dying and...
"There is a metal rod going right through his chest and abdomen..."
His voice shook, tears rolling down his face.
"Hyung I'm scared there's a lot of blood, and it's still coming out of everywhere!!"
He heard Namjoon muttering a semi quiet 'oh God', and hiccuped, covering his mouth with his good hand and biting on it.
"He's gonna be ok, right?"
But there was no answer. He waited, and then pressed harder.
"Right?"
"Yeah...yeah Kook he's gonna be just fine."
"...'m righ' here...you bra'ssss..."
Jungkook looked at Yoongi surprised and somehow happy, seeing him calm once again and talking. Even throwing a small joke around.
"Joon..."
He was breathless and Namjoon took the hint, explaining to him that he was fine.
"I'm fine Yoongi-ah...it's just my legs."
"Jimi..."
"His ribs are probably broken but he's not choking so his lungs are fine. He'll survive hyung."
"T-Taeh..."
"Broken glass and several cuts on him. I think his bleeding stopped before he got out of the car."
This time it was Jungkook who cut him mid-sentence.
"You?"
Yoongi asked him.
"It's just my arm hyung, we're fine..."
"I'm...sorry..."
Jungkook frowned, looking at him, noticing the full grown shivers and shakes on his body.
"Rap-mon hyung?!!"
"He's probably delirious Kook, don't worry...he's gonna be fine it's temporary."
"Hngh......nooo..."
Yoongi trailed off, More blood oozing out of his mouth. Jungkook's frown deepened and he looked at him baffled.
"Haaa...I...I sh-should've known...my...f-fault. This..."
He gulped, swallowing down the blood in his mouth.
"No, Yoongi don't say that, it wasn't your fault it was an accident..."
Jungkook tried to soothe his fried nerves by talking to him, but Yoongi shook his head weakly and continued.
"I l-let the o-other car...ha...pass befo-re...I did-hng...this."
"Yoongs...it's not your fault. There was a family in that car, I saw a kid in there...you made the right call hyung..."
Jungkook turned and looked at Namjoon, silently thanking him. They heard a long inhale, but before Yoongi could protest, Namjoon cut him off.
"Don't talk hyung it'll just make you bleed faster..."
His voice shook uncontrollably, and he cursed himself silently because he was the leader. He needed to be strong for the sake of his friends and members and guide them through hardships but right now he had failed.
" 'm sorry..."
Was all Yoongi repeated, and didn't utter a word after that. Jungkook tried to see past the half broken windows and spot Taehyung, but all he could see was a white-mid-night blue landscape stretched bofore his eyes, blending everything around in.
"What's taking Tae so long?"
He pleaded practically to no one, and closed his eyes tightly. Jimin let out a painful sound, and Yoongi's head snapped towards it. He could make out some parts of Jimin from that angle, and it made him let out a disappointed grunt.
"Hyung...I...it hurts..."
Finally Jimin spoke, ana Namjoon looked at him with tears in his eyes.
"I know Minnie I'm so sorry I'm sure help is coming, just try to hold on ok? I'll be there whem they take you to hospital. You're gonna be fine.
Jimin didn't answer, but his laboured breaths were mixed with Yoongi's short ones, and Jungkook felt like he wanted to bang his head on something hard just to not hear the evidence of the torture that his hyungs were going through.
He was lost in his mind when Yoongi started coughing again, this time the force of the coughs pushing his body forward and back around the rod, making him whimper and cry at the same time.
Jungkook's eyes widened, reaching out again and even tugging at his injured arm but that only resulted in a loud scream that muffled Yoongi's coughing sounds, and made Namjoon and Jimin panic.
"Jungkook? Kook! What happened, are you ok?!!"
Came Namjoon's cry, and Jungkook bit on his lip- hard -just to stop himself from screaming again because now the pain in his arm was tenfold. Every fiber in his body hurt, amd he fought the pain with all he had while painfully being aware of Yoongi's shaking body.
Namjoon was still calling his name, and now Jimin was calling out for Yoongi. Jungkook wished he could just lose consciousness from the pain. Or rather Yoongi do that. It would be great for both of them, but then he heard another rounds of repetitive screams.
They were growing louder and quieter in his ears at the same time, and now he really considered banging hisbhead against the dashboard or the half broken window cuz he couldn't take any more of this torture.
He heard himself scream again, this time from the pain and also he desperately needed to block out all the sounds of agony that he was hearing. But then he registered the actual sounds, realising that it wasn't screaming that he was hearing, but the sounds of sirens coming their way.
Taehyung had succeeded!
He had saved them!!
Jungkook felt a sliver of hope grow in his chest, and his eyes searched the outside for paramedics to come and help them. Suddenly he saw Taehyung through the half opened door, hearing him yell at them to hurry up and save his friends.
Paramedics rushed in, the two first ones looking at the injured men and quickly going to the other side to extract Jimin. A third one appeared, looking at Namjoon and his one stuck leg.
"Don't worry we will get you out of here as soon as possible."
He said, reassuring them all and getting to work quickly.
Jungkook startled when the window on his side broke in, and he let out a small yelp of surprise.
"I think my neck is hurt, I can't move it."
It was Namjoon.
He didn't hear the doctor's answer because a head popped right beside him through the window, and a middle aged woman looked at his arm. Then the head was gone, and quickly a team came to help get his arm out without damaging it more than it already was.
Jungkook assumed the same thing was happening to Jimin, because his side was pancaked into the metal, and his condition was much more serious because his ribs could puncture his lungs and make him suffocate in his own blood.
There was a sharp tug at his arm that distracted him from his thoughts, and made him scream. He looked over, and saw that the door to Yoongi hyung's side was now open, shocked doctors looking at him with dread and sympathy in their eyes.
Yoongi was convulsing, his body moving so much like a fish thrown out of water, and his arms and legs shaking like a leaf.
"Is he gonna be ok?"
His eyes snapped to one of the female nurses that was waiting for an order, and the young girl just stole her gaze from him. Jungkook looked at another doctor, this time screaming his question and demanding answers.
"You have to tell me, is my hyung gonna be ok?"
There was a pause.
"Fuck it just answer me!!!"
He bit his lip when no one reminded him to watch his language, and Yoongi hyung continued convulsing. His next scream was from frustration, and then he noticed that he was being moved up and out of the car to a gurney right beside it. He was almost happy that he was so distracted that he didn't see the procedure of removing his arm cuz he wasn't sure he wouldn't throw up.
They put him on the gurney without irritating his crushed arm, and Jungkook couldn't tear his eyes away from Yoongi. He saw Jimin being pulled out like him, with more gentleness and care, and laid out on his own gurney.
One of the nurses checked Jungkook's pulse, and as they started to move him away, talked about getting a cast ready. His eyes remained on Yoongi till the las moment, and then he saw them moving Jimin's gurney to another ambulance.
He screamed from pain when a doctor touched his arm, and a nurse gave him morphine to help him with the pain. He went drowsy in a matter of seconds, and suddenly he could remember how it was to not feel pain.
He could finally breathe more comfortably but it must have something to do with the oxygen mask that suddenly appeared on his face, and when his head lulled to the side, he thought he saw Namjoon with a neck cast moved away, but his fuzzy brain reminded him that still there was no Yoongi.
He brought up his healthy arm and half removed the mask with trembling fingers that he was noticing now, and rasped out through muted pain and a shot of morphine.
"Where's Yoongi?!!"
"The other doctors are taking care of all your friends, lie down."
The nurse assured him, pushing him down with a hand on his left shoulder gently.
"We're almost done; ok?"
"Nooo...where's Yoongi hyung?"
"Kid you need to calm down. They'll help him..."
A doctor to his right growled, and fastened his legs to the gurney to prevent him from moving too much or probably falling down and hurting himself even more.
Jungkook arched his back, fighting the sudden wave of nausea and whining like a kid.
"Why isn't he out yet? Is he ok? I want to see my hyung please!! He's dying!"
His pupils were dilated, and the nurse pushed his fingers in his neck to get his pulse.
"He's panicking. The bleeding is under control but he's lost so much blood he will need transfusions and surgery on his arm."
"His heart is beating way too fast just get him inside."
"Administer a shot of sedatives if he keeps on fighting."
Doctors shot back and forth above his head, and nurses pushed him inside and he was engulfed in warmth that made his body surrender. He called out for Namjoon hyung and Jimin, but they couldn't help him. They were injured and there was no guarantee that they would be fine.
They could die before even reaching the hospital. They were in a car accident and it was terrible. Jimin could die by choking on his own blood. Namjoon could have a broken neck and die just like that, it would be easy. Taehyung could bleed out from his cuts and die, and Yoongi seemed dead already.
They all could've died right now, and Jungkook didn't even know! So he started thrashing and trying to get himself free, but then he saw a flash of a needle and he was out like a light. He didn't even get the time to properly panic.
Fortunately Jimin had passed out as soon as they pulled him out of the dented car door. They delivered him to the ambulance without a problem, and did the same for Namjoon. He couldn't move his neck, but they had managed to take care of his bleeding and it didn't look like a serious problem. They were more worried about his neck and head, but it had to wait till they reached the hospital.
Taehyung was walking around, worrying over his hyungs and Jungkook, but doctors got them out fairly quickly. The only one remaining was Yoongi, and Taehyung had seen how bad it actually was. From the outside. A full view. A picture burned in his mind that he couldn't ever forget.
He needed to make sure that Yoongi was fine as much as he could be, but there were nurses following him around non stop and trying to treat his still bleeding deep cuts, but Taehyung was more stubborn than them. He stood his ground, not letting them to take him away from Yoongi.
The others were already gone, 4 individual ambulances leaving the crash site, including the truck driver that was apparently simply drunk. This makes Taehyung's heart clench.
A simple drunk man had destroyed them, and Taehyung couldn't help the rage that he was feeling, because some irresponsible sick bastard thought that it was ok to drink while he knew that he would be on the road, carrying dangerous cargo. He wasn't sure if he could ever forgive that man if anything happened to anyone of them...
He was looking at the doctors trying to somehow help Yoongi and stabilize him, and he was startled when he saw a fire truck pull aside near them, two men running out with a weird device in their hands towards them.
He pushed the nurse dressing one of the cuts on his neck away, and limped towards the car, getting to the car before the two fire men, and standing between them. He knew that they were going to do something with that device to Yoongi, but he didn't trust them with that bog, scary another one. He just wanted to protect his friend, and the device looked too scary to let it around Yoongi hyung.
"Son, move away. We're trying to help."
"No! What are you gonna do to jim with that?!!"
He beckoned to the device with a jerk of his head, and then looked the man in the eye.
"We're going to cut out the metal rod so he can be moved, now back off or..."
"Or what?"
He dared the man, not knowing why he was being stubborn but he just couldn't let them hurt Yoongi more.
"Or I will sedate you and take you away with your waiting ambulance, do you want that?"
A female doctor threatened, the syringe already in her hand, ready to put him out.
So Taehyung shook his head vigorously, stumbling aside and letting them through. One of the nurses injected Yoongi with something he assumed was a strong dosage of morphine, and another one grasped Yoongi's shoulder strongly to prevent him from moving. The two fire men stepped forward, turning the device on, and started cutting through the metal.
Immediately Yoongi started screaming at the top of his lungs, his cries of pain and agony like a hundred needles on Taehyung's skin. Blood was pouring out of his open mouth, his skin sickly white like a ghost.
Two of the nurses grasped him in time, hard, not letting him break free and run to his friend; no matter how much he screamed and pleaded with them, they wouldn't budge.
So Taehyung stayed there, struggling against now three nurses, watching his hyung be tortured even more, and not being able to do a goddamn thing...
Yoongi screamed himself hoarse, and Taehyung was begging him in his mind to pass out, nut he didn't. The metal was cut, and nurses immediately put him on the gurney, doctors surrounding him right after, talking constantly over his head, and rushing him to another ambulance. Those three nurses pushed Taehyung inside another one, and by that time he was unresponsive.
He didn't talk anymore, and his eyes were glued to a spot in the distance. Like he wasn't here anymore, and doctors used this opportunity to start treating him at last.
