"I know you are here, but you aren't relevant. Don't you remember? You aren't king. You don't rule anyone. I've told you what you are. We've been over this." Yoongi gave him a jerk, not quite as violently as he could have. He knew that Ten would be pissed, but he couldn't risk being separated from him. Anyone could kill him. Anyone might. This was the only way he could trust that wouldn't happen. "I was a leader for the rebellion, Namjoon."
Yoongi opened the door to the bedchamber and walked inside, waiting for Namjoon to follow and pulling Ten along. "There's no rebellion any more."
"True, we just have to work out the next step. What comes next, you know?" Namjoon had no idea that he was going to become leader, he was very happy to listen to his hyungs and follow as he was told. Even if he was doing most of the work, he didn't see himself as an authority.
"He thinks you can be a ruler but you can't. You're pathetic. No one would follow you. You have all the charm of a diseased mutt." Ten sneered, jealous and stung by Yoongi's cruel words. He didn't want Namjoon to rule - he wanted to rule. He wanted to be treated nice and be taken care of like a king always was. Not this! "Your precious rebel leader is a coward."
Namjoon glared and put his hand on the hilt of his sword. "What is he talking about?"
"Shut the fuck up," Yoongi told Ten again, this time tightening his hold a lot more than previously, wanting it to be painful. He had to deal with this properly and Ten wasn't making it easy. He knew he had to talk to Namjoon about this slowly. He would understand, if only he had the time to get through to him. But, of course, Ten wouldn't give him that.
So he marched him over to the closet and opened it up, turned him around and pinned him to the still closed door, catching his eyes. "Are you going to submit or do I have to get cruel? You are a prisoner right now."
"I'm not your prisoner, I never will be. Don't you dare treat me like one!" Ten raised his voice, clearly not happy with being treated like shit. He was a king, he had royal blood. Who the fuck did this guy think he was, treating him like this. "You don't understand who you are provoking." A fallen king with no power but that wasn't going to stop him. He was determined to be a total pain until the bitter end.
"Are you sure you don't want to kill him...?" Namjoon was just saying. He trusted the judgement of Yoongi but at the same time, he really didn't see the appeal of keeping that spoilt brat around.
Yoongi's eyes narrowed and he hauled Ten against himself, opening the second door. That done he pushed him inside the closet, holding on to his bound hands. It only took a few moments to tie them above his hand to the clothing rack, making sure the knots were tight, secure, and outside his reach. He grabbed a hold of some cloth and forced it into Ten's mouth, not going easy on him now. He had given him his chance and this was ultimately for his own good.
So he gagged him tightly and then bent down to tie his legs together and off to the back of the closet as well. Not much sound possible that way. All in all, this had only taken him minutes. He stood in front of Ten and looked right at him, mouthing the words 'You are mine.'
Then he shut the closet and walked away from it to Namjoon, shaking his head. "There is no need to kill him. And, no, I don't want to."
Ten tried his best to make noise and cause a racket but it was very difficult. It wasn't exactly quiet from the closet but he wasn't able to cause the kind of chaos he wanted. He could barely whimper around the cloth forced into his mouth.
"So the plan is to keep the king alive and ... hope he never does anything or tries to reclaim the throne." Okay. Sounded dodgy but okay. "Hyung... do you really want me to be the leader? Cause I can't be. I'm too irresponsible!"
"The plan is for the king to be gone. There can't be someone who the people might look to, negatively or positively. Not like that. That's why I have to be gone too. If they just replace him with me, we'll have accomplished nothing." Yoongi shook his head, frowning as he tried to think of how to explain this. "Just notice how they look at me. They are so used to see someone as chosen to lead, by some higher power. I'm not that person. I don't think there should be such a person. I think you should choose who you want to lead you. How you want to be lead. So I'll be gone, and Ten will be as well."
"You and Ten will leave and I'll have the kingdom... I dunno how much I like that." For many reasons. Yikes. He was going to rule. He really didn't see that coming. "I guess I can try. Maybe I could set up a government. I could have people come in and then we could create something that is less single ruled and more democratic."
He heard Ten make an annoyed sound from the closet and he had to admit, it was impressive that he was still able to react. Namjoon shook his head and then turned to Yoongi. "If you want me to do it, I will."
