bluemold: (by the jealous hyungs)

"Yeah, that'd be awkward." It could be quite the challenge, but they'd gotten good at distracting the guys at the gas station and thankfully that was just a twenty minute walk. "We're there! That's our front door." Yoongi pointed excitedly, bouncing in his seat suddenly and kicking Hobi, so he'd move to snatch the meds, which he promptly did.

They just needed to get Jimin to take the meds, then things would get better again. Hobi hid the meds under his jacket and Jackson focused on stopping the car and staring incredulously. He looked at Namjoon. This had to be a trick, right? "...I'd say we hold on to them while they show us their home."

"Yeah, there's a monster in there," Yoongi said with a straight face, "Your partner's gonna get eaten."

"Suga! You're scaring me!" Hobi slapped Yoongi's arm playfully, then wrapped an arm around Namjoon's shoulder. "We're good boys, sir."

Yoongi nodded in agreement as he watched the door, not surprised to see Tae open. Not the best, he supposed, but the only other option - with Jimin's current state - was Jungkook. At least Tae talked, even if he sometimes said really weird things.

Right now he just looked at Jackson with big eyes and Yoongi frowned. He really had to get them more food. Damn it.

"Don't take my hyungs to jail!" Tae already sounded panicked.

"You have to ask Suga." Tae might be young, but he knew better than to tell adults anything they hadn't agreed upon beforehand. He knew what adults were like. Hobi and Yoongi could handle that. He glanced past Jackson to Jungkook, just to make sure he wasn't running off. Not that he thought he would. "Suga knows."

"That's nice for Suga, but it's not like he talks to us." Jackson muttered and leaned forward to look into the place, frowning. All he could see where piles of some stuff - small piles - and one old mattress with yet another pile on it. No sign of anyone else that he could see. "They live alone here, don't they?" This was horrifying.

And there was a toddler trying to open the car door.

"Hey!"
bluemold: (Their source of income with my fame)

Yoongi grabbed Hobi by the arm immediately, although he did find the time to ruffle Jungkook's hair as he passed him. He headed past Tae and the cops into the building, letting go of Hobi to leave him by the exit so he could maybe block the adults from interfering just long enough.

Then he crouched down by the mattress and, as far as Jackson could see, picked up a pile. But then he looked closer and realised that he was cradling a tiny boy against his chest and hurriedly getting the pills out of the package they'd stolen before.

Jackson didn't really get emotional easily, not like that, but the entire build-up of having caught punk kids that were actual kids, not teens, leading to them coming here, finding even smaller kids and now the revelation that the theft had been because one of those tiny kids appeared to be sick? That did tug on the heartstrings. "Damn."

What did they do?

"...should I call an ambulance?"
bluemold: (I’m the guy that will carve)

[personal profile] bluemold 2018-11-10 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
"Shh, it's okay. It's okay, Jiminie. Hyung will take care of you." Yoongi promised it, even though he had no idea whether it was an empty promise? An ambulance? He supposed. Fine. They could do that. Maybe they'd be in the system, but he was sure he could find his kids again, they could be together, they'd just run off. He'd done it often enough by himself and with Hobi. They could do it with the kids too. Right now, Jimin's health mattered.

Tae sat down by Jimin's side, gently gripping his hand and looking at his friend with so much concern. "Can the ambulance make it better, police man hyung?"

Jackson was making the call, feeling sick from both the smell and mostly how awful this was. How could something like this happen to kids this young?
bluemold: (I’m the crazy guy)

[personal profile] bluemold 2018-11-10 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
"I'm TaeTae. That's Kookie. That's Hobi-hyung. That's Suga-hyung. And that's Jiminie... We are same age." Tae's introduction was probably not that helpful, but presented sincerely.

"It will be okay," Yoongi promised, hoping it wasn't a lie. He didn't like lying, but sometimes he had no choice. He had to do what was best for his boys, even Hobi.

"They're on their way," Jackson assured his partner, still looking on with concern. "What do we do with all these kids?"

They could hardly all ride in the ambulance, right? Although, from the looks of them they all seemed as if they might be malnourished at the very least, even if only one of them was feverish. "I guess we take them all to the hospital?"

Yoongi was thinking, pulling Jimin close. "I'm not leaving Jiminie."
bluemold: (Those childish and jealous people)

[personal profile] bluemold 2018-11-10 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Yoongi lowered his head, knowing that he had to be strong and doing his best. He was so worried. "Kookie, can you stay with TaeTae?"

"We'll be in a police car, Kookie!" Tae knew that when Yoongi suggested something it was bound to happen, so he smiled encouragingly at Jungkook and even held out his arms for him.

Hobi sat down next to Tae, looking at Jimin with worry that was much more obvious than Yoongi. He'd have to be all right, right?

"It's fine, J-Hope," Yoongi assured him, not knowing if it would be. But Hobi needed to hear it.

"I can hear the sirens," Jackson said, "Ambulance is almost there."
bluemold: (that I'm an idol)

[personal profile] bluemold 2018-11-10 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
"No. I got him." Jimin would hate if Yoongi let go of him right now and even if he might not be entirely aware right now, he wasn't going to betray him. Even if he could barely hold him, he wouldn't let his Jimin down. Yoongi walked slowly out the door and Hobi quickly moved next to him, leaning in to whisper something in his ear. Yoongi nodded, but said nothing and Hobi gathered Tae and Jungkook, herding them to the cop car.

Hey, riding a cop car without being in actual trouble wasn't so bad.

The ambulance had already arrived and Jackson explained what little he knew, gesturing to Yoongi holding the sick boy. They were professionals, so it didn't take them long to be on their way again, leaving Jackson and Namjoon with the three boys. "So. We got here with two, we're leaving with three? I don't like how the numbers keep getting worse."

Jackson was just saying. He looked at Namjoon and frowned. "What's even the story here? Do you think any of them are related?"
yourhope: (for the environment I’m given)

"Good point." Not something that Jackson wanted to think about either. He got into the car and followed the ambulance quickly, as if that would somehow be of help. As if that could keep the boy alive. It was an illusion, but it felt better than just standing there and doing nothing.

"Wow! Jungkook, can you hear?" Tae cuddled Jungkook, staring on with a lot of fascination and watching the people outside. "They all think we are hunting down bad guys! Do you shoot the bad guys? Have you shot a lot of them? Are any of them aliens?"

Hey, he was just curious. Hobi was smiling, although he wasn't really feeling it. Whatever, had to keep the kids perky, especially Jungkook while he had to go without Yoongi. "I don't think they'd tell him if they were aliens."
yourhope: (If I were to say about me)

[personal profile] yourhope 2018-11-10 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Hobi wrapped an arm around Jungkook to reassure him, although he already knew he'd not be able to get him to talk anyway. Mostly the boy only talked to them when he felt like it, when he wasn't feeling it only Yoongi mattered and Yoongi wasn't here right now. "He's three. I think."

He couldn't be sure, but that was what Jungkook said. Maybe he was four by now? "Suga knows for sure."

"It's amazing how much Suga knows and how little he tells," Jackson observed wisely, glancing at Namjoon when his phone vibrated. Easy guess there, he hoped Jin could help.

Sure, love. Is he injured?

"Suga knows everything," Tae told them, oblivious to the sarcasm, "Except about aliens... You know more about those." Which was very intriguing to him.
yourhope: (A lifetime of thanking)

[personal profile] yourhope 2018-11-10 11:34 pm (UTC)(link)
I think he just got here. I'll tend to him!

I'll hug you later. <3


"Why do you need a full name to give Jimin medicine?" Hobi was asking with a frown, not that naive. And very happy to have covered Tae's mouth just in time. Tae was still young and got attached way too easily, he'd probably happily blab out all their secrets. Hobi wasn't going to do that, especially not without Yoongi there.

"What's you name?" Tae was curious, now that his mouth was free, looking at Namjoon, who seemed pretty awesome. He knew he couldn't talk about Yoongi, he wasn't an idiot!
yourhope: (A positive rather than a negative type)

[personal profile] yourhope 2018-11-10 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
"His name is Jiminie and his face is really cute." So there, that was relevant. "But I'm sure you'll get his name! Fighting, hyung! I believe in you!" Hobi gave him the thumbs up and, looking up from the badge, Tae copied the gesture, smiling just as happily as Hobi.

"You'll do it!" There, he could be encouraging, just like J-Hope.

Jackson laughed. Well, these kids were ridiculous, he couldn't help it.
