Chapter Text
Jimin hated winter, and everything that came with it.
The snow-coated ground, the chilly winter air and the cold gust of wind that blew past him as he ran through the woods for dear life. He felt his legs burning, but he couldn't afford to stop now. He was being chased.
Then he tripped. Over nothing. Air, perhaps? He has indeed always been clumsy.
But right now, that's not important.
He tripped, and he fell and rolled towards the bottom of the snow-covered slope.
Only to land directly into a freezing pond.
Well, to crash would be a more appropriate term, seeing as the fall wasn't exactly soft and was the total opposite if what one would call a "landing".
Still, he swam and swam, till he couldn't feel his numb and half-frozen body anymore, to the other side of the lake. He was shaking and gasping for breath when he finally reached it, and for a moment he imagined seeing a glowing pair of blue eyes from behind a rather large bush amidst the darkness of the unforgiving forest.
He should have known he wasn't capable of imagining them.
His brain barely had time to process everything that happened within the span of a few minutes.
"There he is!"one of his attackers shouted from the other side of the lake. The next moment others emerged from the left and right side of the forest and into the small clearing.
He was trapped.
"Think you could outrun us, you stupid thing?" the man sneered, grabbing a handful of his hair and yanking it back, so that he was gazing up at him. He held up his gun, aiming it to the side of his head.
"Weaklings like you deserve to die!" he was about to pull the trigger when a low growl interrupted him, and suddenly, a large wolf coated with black and white fur emerged from the darkness of the forest.
It was roughly five times the size if a normal man.
It bared its large, sharp fangs and a loud growl, far more menacing and terrifying than the last, made its way past its throat, awakening the sleeping forest and making the birds fly away from the trees they were perched on.
Within a few seconds, everybody was running for their lives, scrambling away from the huge animal. Everybody, that is, except for Jimin, who was still kneeling on the ground directly infront of the massive wolf, freezing and shaking because if his still wet clothes.
The wolf stepped closer and closer, clearly not aware of what 'personal space' means, until he was nuzzling against Jimin, sniffing his neck. Much to his confusion and surpsrise, Jimin immediately relaxed upon the proximity and the claming presence of the creature.
Then he passed out.
