Bangtan Gal - Tumblr Posts

Hi! Starting over again!

Idk how many people may remember this blog but hi! I'm Val aka Smolwritingchick.

I used to post The Bangtan Gal here on Tumblr. A BTS Jungkook love story about an 8th member of BTS, Jennie Walker.

I'm starting over. I have two stories I want to post on here that I deleted. A wrestling story called Forced To Believe which is about a female member of The Shield from WWE (I posted that on fanfiction.net many years ago) and my BTS story, Bangtan Gal. Currently editing chapters and will post them soon.

I took a long break from writing due to my mental health and just lack of motivation to write as I focused more on work and had other passions. But I miss it and would love to repost my work. I'm not a big fan of the fanfiction.net site these days so I will be posting my stories on Wattpad, Tumblr and Archive of our own for now on.

I'm hoping to continue The Bangtan Gal as I plan out new chapters after editing the old ones. For now, what matters is that I'm having all these chapters up from what has already been written so people can reread.

This blog will focus 95% on my K-Pop story The Bangtan Gal, so expect a lot of posts and asks regarding my K-Pop story and fewer posts about my wrestling story. I'm more focused on that, so sorry in advance.

I don't really care about the notes or views. I just want to post these up again and see where it goes.

I keep rereading my stories and I really miss it so why not?

Stay tuned.

OK OK!

First batches of my wrestling story are out! Next up I will work on editing Bangtan Gal chapters and when I get to a good spot I'll post the edited chapters in a big group like I just did with my wrestling story. Stay tuned! :)

Just like BTS have their own individual playlists, here is Jennie's on Spotify

Reposting again, Jennie's Playlist <3 I think this was made back in 2017 when I was working on the story.

I didn't want to go overboard and put a bunch of songs but it looked like I did lmfao. Around 60 or so is more than enough in comparison to them having like 20 something songs.

I want to edit the JenKook playlist too.

OK 6 out of 16 Bangtan Gal Chapters are edited. I should try to have the rest done with gifs and so on by the end of the week hopefully.

'BTS Chef Korea'

Rap Monster and Jennie stand before the camera in the middle of the kitchen. "Hello everyone. We're Bangtan Chef Korea's MCs. Rap Monster and Jennie."

"Aye!" She threw up a peace sign.

"Cooking in English is cooking!" He mentioned in English as she nodded in response.

"That is correct."

"Even just hearing it isn't it a word that makes one really happy."

"Well, food is really awesome."

"The taste of all these fresh ingredients laid out right here. Harmony." He picked up a vegetable.

"Food~" Jennie sings while Rap Mon follows suit in a lower tone before they harmonize.

"Hey! We did it!" He cheered, looking relieved.

"10th times the charm!" She high fived him. "Today is a very special day. Why? Because it's Rap Monster's birthday!" She clapped while he smiled at her.

"Thank you, Jennie. Today our 6 members with the exception of Jennie and I will be up against each other 3 vs 3 in a cooking battle. And now we'll reveal how it works and the main theme of today."

'Look for BTS's Cooking King! Today's theme, prepare Rap Monster's birthday cooking! Bangtan's cooking strength Jin Chef with Jimin & Jungkook. Hidden cooking player Suga chef with V & J-Hope. A cooking battle that tangles in their pride, this is the start! Complete your cooking within the given time. Time of 40 minutes. Satisfy the taste palates of our 4 judging panel. Winning team gets dining vouchers and relaxing rest time. Losing team gets the job of cleaning up the post-war venue!'

Rap Monster and Jennie stand in between the two opposing teams. "The theme of today's battle! I'm so, so satisfied. September 12th! What day is it, everybody?!" Rap Monster asked.

"Rap Monster's birthday!" Everyone cheered.

"It's nice that it's your birthday and to have a celebration too. But exactly why are we made to cook from early in the morning." Suga complained. "Writers, is this some sort of trickery!?"

"Yeah, this is the writer's trickery. Suga chef team five points deducted." Rap Monster demanded, making Jennie laugh. "You can just think about such things on your own. Since at the end of the day, we're the ones judging you guys."

"So in front of us are the ingredients the writers have prepared for you. beforehand." Jennie announced, gesturing to the different foods.

"Having looked at the ingredients, you'll be given time to have a discussion and to decide on your menu." Rap Monster explained.

"Y'all got five minutes!" She said bluntly, showing her five fingers to both teams

"Five minutes?" The boys repeat.

"And the cooking discussion starts now!" Rap Monster commanded.

Both teams eagerly discuss their menu deeply. Jin's team discusses making seaweed soup and salad, while Suga's team discusses having good taste. Unimaginable terror cooking.

"I'm going to die today, aren't I?" Jennie smiled nervously at Suga's team after they expressed their love for Rap Monster.

"Don't worry, we love you too." Suga reassured.

"Uh huh. I think you still want revenge after you drew on my face."

"You deserved it. I see the marker came off." He pointed out with a smirk.

"Wow, Suga. Wow. Thank you for being such a great friend." She shook her head.

Both teams gather around Rap Monster and Jennie. 

"What menus have both our teams come up with and also what ingredients they have chosen? That I'm very curious! Right now we'll be choosing our ingredients. To quickly get the ingredients needed for your respective cooking is the most important right?" Rap Monster asked.

"On your mark...GO!" Jennie yelled as both teams scrambled to the food.

"What happened to set!?" Jin exclaimed, grabbing onto Jungkook who was in front of everyone, trying to get to the food first and trying to push Suga away.

"Good grief!" Jennie looked on in surprise as the guys started pushing and pulling on each other. Everyone starts fighting each other for the ingredients, and it turns into a mess. "What happened to teamwork!?"

Suga manages to latch onto a fish cake while J-Hope tries to snatch seaweed out of Jin's hands. Jin has none of it and snatches it back, making J-Hope flinch when he is about to hit him. Chaos ensues as they all start throwing and tossing stuff at each other.

"Are ya'll throwing stuff!?" Jennie yelled in English before getting hit with a bag of rice that flew past her. "AYE! AYE! I should not be getting hit!" She goes back to Korean.

After the guys settle down, Jen and Rap Monster stand in between the opposing teams.

"And now we'll be giving you guys exactly 40 minutes of cooking time. In exactly 40 minutes you'll have to end your cooking and garnish your plate prettily." Rap Monster informed.

"All right! Your 40 minutes of cooking starts now!" Jennie announced.

Both teams start to get right to it with the cooking as Jin starts to forget what his team's cooking plans are.

Jin (I lost whatever I planned beforehand so my mind was all confused)

Jin tells Jimin to boil water as Jennie looks on. Jin looked a bit disorganized and it made her start to chuckle. "You guys have a plan right?"

"AH! YES! Yes, Jennie, why wouldn't we?!" Jin hesitated with a nervous laugh.

Jennie 'Amused Judge' (Poor Jin...I'm sure he'll be fine!)

Meanwhile, with Suga's team, V tries to bribe Rap Monster with some food. "For a fair judging, I can't." He smiled, trying to resist the offer.

"Ah, no no just, don't overthink and just take it!" V persuaded.

"No, no."

V 'Accused of Bribery' (It was bribery. Take a good look at us, we're such a team. Our cleanliness is good, our giving of bribery is good, too.)

Rapmon ends up eating the food V had given him, complimenting him on how yummy it is.

'After breakdown, midst of mental restoration. Jin Chef team'

"Should I put this in first?" Jimin asked.

"Just do what you like." Jin replied.

"Hyung then what should I do then?" Jungkook asked while Rapmon and Jennie sat beside each other, watching both teams.

"Looking at these ingredients, I really don't know what to do..." Jin sighed.

Jin 'Stolen Meat Victim' (When we were obtaining ingredients I only had seaweed and meat thought of in my head. After getting back to my senses the meat disappeared. When we gathered our ingredients I saw the meat with the opposing team. My mind went really confused. I really don't know what I should make anymore.)

Jungkook 'Baby Chef' (I wanted to make a dish of mixed veggies. I thought about what I should do then went to cut up the vegetables.)

"So who do you think is gonna win, birthday boy?" She turned to Rapmon, punching him on the arm, getting a chuckle in response.

"I honestly don't even know. I just hope whatever they're cooking will be all right."

"We shall see!"

"Jennie~ could you come over here for a second?" V called out with a boxy grin, waving at her.

"Yeah, sure. What's up?" She stood up and walked over to him. "How's the cooking going?"

Jungkook's ears perk up as he glances at the two of them, watching V's every move while cutting the food. What did V have under his sleeve this time?

"Here." V showed her a clean carrot. "I wanted you to have this."

"That looks so good right now, I love carrots." She looked at it with happiness.

"It's yours. Go ahead!"

"Jennie! Don't take that! He's bribing you!" Jungkook warned, walking over to the two.

"Wha? I'm doing no such thing!" V tried to look innocent.

"Jennie won't be fooled. No more bribing."

Jennie 'Confused Judge' (I have no idea what's going on around this kitchen, haha)

"Let's go back over here where you won't get bribed." Jungkook steals her away, ignoring V's complaints.

V 'Annoyed Briber' (Darn it Jungkook! He ruined my plan.)

"Here. Sit back down." He placed his hands on her shoulders, lowering her down to sit back in her seat. He grabbed a clean carrot from his station and handed it to her with a smile. "Here's my carrot. Enjoy, no bribery. Relax, and don't go near V."

"Hah hah! Okay, I won't! Thanks!" She happily took a bite of the food as he goes back to his station.

Jungkook 'Hero for Jennie' (I felt really happy saving her from V's bribing. She really enjoyed the carrot. Now V seems to be at a disadvantage since he hasn't bribed any of the judges. I think we'll win for sure!)

Jennie 'Happy Judge' (I got a carrot! It was so good! Thanks Jungkook! But I want another one...maybe I can sneak the one V was supposed to give me...listen to Jungkook...or get V's carrot...hm...)

"Do we add Tuna into the seaweed soup?" Jungkook questioned.

"Firstly since we don't have meat," Jin replied, before dripping a lot of sesame oil into the food. Jennie cringed at the sight.

Jin 'Sesame Oil Supporter' (I like sesame oil so I added a lot into it. I'm sorry...that was a great mistake of mine...)

Jennie 'Non-supporter of Sesame Oil' (So I was looking around and couldn't help but come across Jin just splashing all this sesame oil into the food. WHY!? That's too much! It'll overpower the food! Won't it!? Ah Gosh, make him stahp! STAHP~)

With V's team, J-hope begins cooking the meat, making Rap Monster happy as he watches in delight.

'With the meat J-Hope's definitely sure of their win'

J-Hope 'Meat complimenter' (Ah the meat is really a defining ingredient. Let's say if without it, J-hope's food lacking of that very meat. Ah really to me it's definitely an important ingredient.)

Rap Monster 'Hates to eat his birthday cooking' (The most frightening people are the ignorant yet diligent people. V is exactly like that. He's totally ignorant when it comes to cooking...)

'Among the members, whose cooking is the worst?'

Jungkook (V! That hyung has never even cooked before in the dorm.)

Jimin (V really....i think today really all just comes down to V.)

Jin (The opposing team has their black-hole. V. The best black hole ever.)

Jennie (Ah...V...I asked him to make me a microwavable meal once in the dorm, when he gave me the noodles, it wasn't even half done.)

V 'Cooking Black Hole' (Yeah I do like it.)

Jungkook finished his plate by throwing in all the ingredients they had and red pepper before frying it. But then Jimin threw noodles together with it to cook it again

Jennie 'Horrified for her life' (I really am nervous to eat that.)

"Guys you have ten minutes left!" Jennie announced as both teams put the finishing touches on their food. "Jungkook! What are you-never mind." She sits down after watching him pour milk into the combined noodles and tuna. She walks over to J-Hope who is stirring Kelp, pork and onion soup. 

"Ah, it's going to be yummy!" He said confidently and took a sip. Almost immediately, he freezes and gets quiet as Jennie starts snickering.

"It has an interesting flavor!" He coughed.

"Uh huh. Just looking at my death here. I've lived a nice life."

"Ah, i-it's not that bad, you'll be fine!"

"There's five minutes left! Five minutes!" Rap Monster announced.

"Five minutes left?" Jin repeated in surprise.

"10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1 Battle finished!" Rap Monster announced. "Finally the disastrous spectacle has come to an end."

"More like disasteriffic!" Jennie replied. "Nonetheless it is time for us to taste test the food you've made."

"This is not a punishment, right? This feels like a secret prank camera." Rap Monster examined the food nervously.

"Look at our visuals!" Jimin pointed to his team's food.

"It is not all about the visuals!" J-Hope fired back.

"Since I can't eat it on my own, sacrificing together with me is Jennie and two other judging panelists that will be doing the tasting."

'Evaluation time!'

Jennie, Rapmon and the male and female judges stand before the dishes. 

"Let's start from this side." Rapmon said, as everyone grabbed their chopsticks and carefully tasted the ramen dish.

'Jimin Chef's fried red pepper paste noodles. Using the mixed veggies Jungkook fried in fury and directly added cooked noodles into it.'

As soon as Jennie takes a bite she winces as she continues to chew. "Too much salt!"

"Yeah, it's super salty." Rap Monster agreed

V 'Accused of throwing salt' (We were lacking in visuals. If our taste couldn't make it...what's left only is to sabotage! So I sprinkled salt into Jimin's cooking)

Jimin 'Case victim' (Ah-V!! I had made it so delightfully. What exactly will the officers do about it...)

'J-Hope chef's meat regulation. J-Hope chef's exclusive meat! Even if it's just stir-fried the taste is undeniable.'

"This is a product we're really looking forward to." Rap Monster anticipated as they all took a bite of the meat.

Jennie looked confused as she continued to chew. "Where's the flavor?"

Jennie 'Passionate Meat Lover' (I LOVE Meat. In my household, the meat is always filled with flavor. I was disappointed when there really wasn't a taste to it.*Sniff*)

"There's absolutely no taste at all." The female judge noted, nodding in agreement with Jennie.

"The menu I knew was pork meat. In the meat, there's a plastic smell." The male judge added.

'Suga Chef bean rice cake. Cooking made for variety right from the start. 119 on standby for the judging panel'

"This is another I'm looking forward to." The manager said

"Me too, I think it'll taste good." Rap Monster replied as they all tasted a bite. Before Jennie could take a bite, she had to wait a couple of seconds because of the horrible smell. "You all right, Jen?"

"Ah...just peachy." She groaned. 

The smell was horrible. She'd eaten foods that smelled bad but tasted really good, so maybe this would be the case here, she wondered as she took a bite of the food.

"To describe this dish's taste in the simplest terms...a house that only guys live in. The fragrance returning after heated sports...that smell has been represented in this dish. Just from listening you can feel the bean rice cake's slashing." The male judge explained

Suga 'Midas' Hands' (First I put the bean paste in. Bean paste and ketchup, fish cake, fried onion, fried mushrooms. It was an intricately chosen combination of ingredients. A smell of men's feet came out from the food. I had a taste of it and came up with the dish's sub-set. Bean paste ketchup rice cake pasta's sub-set.)

'J-Hope's chef meat regulation soup'

"Next up this is some kind of...laundry water!" Rap Monster pointed out.

"Ah...the color." Jennie sighed. It did look like laundry water.

"This is not end-plate king right?" Rap Monster laughed. "I thought this food was a punishment from end-plate king."

Jennie 'Nervous Miss Bangtan' (D-Do I really have to try this?)

Suga 'Cooking Destroyer' (Actually it was end plate king, for the judging panel...I hope Jennie enjoys it. HAHA.)

Jennie takes a spoonful of the soup with Rapmon. She places the spoon down and closes her eyes as Suga starts snickering to himself while Rap Monster squints his eyes, laughing to himself at the horrible taste.

Jennie 'Victim of soup' (What did I do to deserve this? Is this almost over!?)

"If the seaweed soup was sesame oil soup, this is salt soup? It's half water, half salt." The male judge mentioned.

'V Chef's V-Roll. Standard seaweed rolls be gone! Confident seaweed roll made by the alchemist.'

"We'll first give this seaweed roll to Rap Mon." The male judge placed the roll in front of the rapper as he took a bite of it. As soon as he starts chewing on it, he begins losing color in his face.

"That bad, huh?" Jennie chuckled nervously and reluctantly took a bite. Handing the roll to the other female judge, Jennie starts coughing, reluctantly chewing it.

Jennie 'Passionate Seaweed lover' (Y'know...I'm not liking how they're killing my favorite foods here. This is tragic!)

Rap Monster 'Taste Buds gone' (The V Roll that V made, made my face lost all color. I think my members have a lot accumulated displeasure against me...I'm sure of it.)

"If we were to evaluate these cookings as a whole, a middle doesn't exist! It's either salty or too sweet or inedible." The male judge declared.

"We're alive! We survived the taste testing." Jennie clapped, sighing out of relief.

"Thankfully." Rap Monster sighed. "We still did it somehow. Now it's discussion time."

Jennie and the rest of the judges compare their ratings and discuss what they thought of the food, before going back to stand before the two teams.

'Results time!'

"Yes and the tasting time has ended. Because it's a broadcast I can't swear..." Rap Monster mumbled, earning a few chuckles from his members. "Still we can't go without picking the winning team, right? Jimin, Jungkook, Jin chef team, red spoon. J-hope, V, Suga's chef team Blue spoon."

"All right, at the same time, we're going to reveal our selections and the side with the most votes will be the winners of the cooking battle." Jennie informed.

"In 3, 2, 1, we'll raise our selections."

Once the 4 judges revealed their votes, Jennie voted for Jin's team in the process, Jin's team was declared the winner.

"Congratulations to the winning team of Jin, Jimin and Jungkook!" Jennie applauded with a smile while V's team started to complain.

"We cannot acknowledge this!" Suga yelled with V.

"So what if your ingredients are expensive!" Jungkook pointed to the food while both teams began to bicker.

"Anyway since you are the winning team, I'll be presenting to you, your dining voucher. Congratulations." Rap Monster handed them their vouchers.

"Thank you!" Jin's team happily accepts while Suga's team is frustrated and in despair.

"And also we can't possibly leave out the punishment for our losing team." Rap Monster pointed out.

"Oh yeah. Looks like you guys are gonna be cleaning up the place! Woo hoo~" Jen clapped, as the losing team playfully glared at her while everyone else clapped.

"This has been an overwhelming Bangtan Chef Korea, but we've come to the end already. Next time we'll be back with an even better program!" Rap Monster closed

Suga 'Chief of losing team, made judging panel lose their taste buds' (J-Hope was a bit too greedy...believed too much in his own skills. I think that it was because of his greed)

J-Hope 'Laundry Water's Creator' (Combining Eastern and Western flavors, what in the world... it just doesn't make sense really. Suddenly bean paste and ketchup, what kind of combination is this?)

Jin 'BTS Cooking Champion' (I'm really thankful to Jungkookie. Also very thankful to Jiminie too. And also Jin-ah you've worked hard. Mine was yummy too! The taste of sesame oil was a bit too strong.)

----

'End Plate Unlucky King/Queen'

"Hello, for today's end-plate King/Queen we're here at a Karaoke Room!" Rap Monster announces as everyone applauded

Everyone gets their cards. Once they flip them over, V is the elected King.

"V is a truly lucky guy!" J-Hope commented.

"What even is he!?" Rapmon questioned

V sits in the middle of the table, while Jen sits in between Rap Monster and Jungkook. 

"We will now begin the first stage of the game," V announced

"I won't lose this time!" Suga said with determination.

'STAGE 1′

'Criminal Disguise. Use black tape to disguise yourself as a wanted crook!'

"Can you explain what this is?" Suga asked.

"I think we're putting black tape all over our face." Jennie replied as he nodded

Everyone grabs a card quickly. "1-2-3!" V announces as everyone quickly flips over their cards, revealing J-Hope with the skull.

"AHHHH" They yell, applauding and fist pumping while J-Hope stares at his skull card in disbelief.

'Finally! J-Hope selected for the very first time!'

'7 peasants cheering in the background'

"At last!" Jimin cheered

"This round is invalid!" J-Hope tossed his skull card down on the table while standing up.

"Now it's only Jennie!" Jimin pointed out.

"Wait she didn't get caught at all?" Suga questioned, looking surprised.

"Nope. And I won't this round." She said confidently.

"We shall see~" V grinned

J-Hope is placed on top of the table, lying on his back while everyone starts placing pieces of tape all over his face. Jennie places a piece of tape right on his upper lip before Jungkook wraps J-Hope's head like a gift basket.

"I'm gonna plug your nostrils." Suga placed a piece of tape right on J-Hope's nostrils.

"I can breathe through my mouth." He said with nonchalance. Once he sits up, they get a full view of his taped up face.

'This far has been boring! Let's try peeling them off!'

Everyone starts peeling the tape off his face one by one despite J-Hope's yells of pain. 

"Sorry J-Hope." Jennie smiled apologetically and ripped off the tape on his upper lip.

"Ahh! I thought you would be gentle~" He whined, rubbing his upper lip. "Seriously this hurts so much." He giggled

"Do you know my pain now?" Suga asked while Jungkook plucked another piece off his face and Jimin snatched off the last piece. The room was filled with J-Hope's yells of pain and whoas from everyone else.

"Really guys...?" J-Hope sighed

'STAGE 2'

'Stick a piece of raw skate under the nose.'

Everyone yells and groans at the punishment. It was not going to be a favorable one. "I think Jennie is gonna get this one!" Jimin happily addressed

"No way!" She objected, shaking her head.

"Man this is really cruel...it really is." Rap Monster shook his head, thinking about the punishment. 

Everyone gathers their cards and flips them over to reveal Suga with the skull card.

"YEAH!" Jennie and everyone but Suga yell and applaud. "WOO~" She fist pumps while Suga starts laughing, looking dumbfounded.

'Once again without fail, today is Suga's punishment time!'

"I am so happy!" Jin sighed out of relief.

"Suga, Suga Suga Suga~. Suga Suga Suga Suga~" The group sings and claps.

'Enter fresh skate express shipped from Heuksan Island'

Jimin holds onto Suga as V places it right on his mouth with the tape. Jen grits her teeth, watching nervously while J-Hope massages the raw skate that was taped against Suga's face. Having enough, Suga snatches it off.

'STAGE 3'

'Insect hunting'

'Kill all the insects stuck to various parts of a member's body using a fly swatter'

"No, it can't be! I can't even kill cockroaches..." Jin murmured

"Don't let it be me. Don't let it be me. Do not let it be me." Jennie mumbled to herself.

"Let it be Jennie. Let it be Jennie. Let it be Jennie." Jimin mumbled to himself, looking straight at her.

"Let it be Jimin. Let it be Jimin. Let it be Jimin." She narrowed her eyes at him as they stared each other down.

"Let it be Jennie!"

"Let it be Jimin!"

"Let it be Jennie!"

"Let it be Jimin!"

They go back and forth while everyone laughs at their bickering. Everyone receives their cards and flips them over to reveal Jimin with the skull card.

"YAAAAHHHHHHH"

"HAHAHA! Lady luck is on my side to-day!" Jennie stood up with her arms up, celebrating. J-Hope and Jin start dancing while Jimin is in disbelief.

"Don't mess with Jennie and her luck." Rap Monster chuckled.

"Why couldn't it have been Jennie!?" Jimin whined

"I wonder when Jennie will get caught." Jungkook wondered.

"Yeah! When Is Miss Bangtan ever going to get caught?" Jin asked.

"NEVER~" Jen laughed evilly.

Jimin lays on his back on top of the table. The guys start messing with him, flying the toy bugs all around him, making him squirm until they lift up his shirt. Suga places the bug right on his belly button while the guys talk about Jimin's abs.

"Jimin is flexing as usual." Jennie poked one of his hard abs. "It's so hard."

She had to admit, she was looking forward to getting abs when she was ready to start working out. 

Suga smacks the bug right then and there, making Jimin yell and clutch his stomach. J-Hope was next, buzzing around and placing the bug right against his cheek. Jimin tenses in nervousness while being held down.

"I'll keep to my manners and hit gently." J-hope spoke before smacking the side of his face.

Jimin sat up in shock. "Did you just lie to me?"

"Ah well, you know I-" He was cut off by his laughs when Jimin grabbed him.

"The cheapest act in the world is hitting the same place twice." Jin said, placing the bug on Jimin's cheek when he was on his back again.

'Cheap grand Satan king Jin loses his innocence'

After Jungkook smacks him hard on his chest, it is Jennie's turn. 

"Let's hit him on the face a third time~" She decided and placed the plastic bug on his cheek.

"Jennie you're going to pay for this!" He declared

"HIGH-YA!" She smacked him hard, earning loud laughs.

"That's it!" Jimin quickly sat up, grabbing her before she could run away. 

She shrieked when he put her head around his arm, giving her an old fashioned noogie while everyone else continued laughing at the sight.

"Not the hair! Jimin!" She smacked him on his arm a couple of times but he didn't let up.

'STAGE 4'

"I want to stop getting picked! Please!" Jimin pleaded in desperation.

"I hope you get picked again!" Jennie called out.

"I hope YOU finally get picked! I hope this is your punishment!" He pointed at her, glaring at her playfully

'Don't crinkle your face'

'Remove every post-it on your face using only facial expression'

Once everyone gathers their cards and places them down in the middle, Suga declares, "It's rigged if it's me again..."

"Well I'm a lucky guy, I can't be picked," J-Hope commented, staying positive.

"3-2-1!" V countdown, revealing Jimin again.

"Yah!" The guys laugh and clap happily for themselves. Jimin stood up and yelled in despair before sitting back down.

"End Plate King/Queen is actually a Jimin and Suga show." J-Hope chuckled

"Of course, for the reason that they are the most popular members." Rap Monster agreed

Jimin had a bunch of Post-its stuck to his face as he began scrunching up his face, trying to take off the Post-Its. Then he had to deal with Suga's gross breath thanks to his punishment from earlier when he kept blowing in his face to remove the post-its.

'STAGE 5'

"Without further ado, we will now take a look at Stage 5." V announced as he revealed the next punishment.

'Put on pants with no hands'

'Put on a low drop trouser without using your hands!'

"Do we have to take off our pants right here?" Jimin asked.

"Of course not!" Suga bluntly replied.

Once everyone flips open their cards, after tons of switches, Rap Monster gets the skull card. Everyone yells in happiness and claps. After a long time, Rap Monster couldn't seem to get it, so Suga suggested that he do the bug punishment.

Taking his suggestion, Rap Monster was not placed on his back against the table. 

"Flip over!" Jin requests and places the bug right on his butt.

"Ha! This is going to be hilarious." Jennie watched in anticipation as V put another bug on Rap Monster's behind.

Everyone laughs after Jin smacks him twice on the butt as Rap Monster squirms around and rubs his butt. "Owie, it hurts!"

'STAGE 6'

'Don't Stop The Beet!'

'Drink a full glass of Beet Juice'

"Full glass of Beets!?" Rap Monster asked in horror while Jennie widened her eyes.

"Please don't let me get this one..." Suga pleaded.

Everyone gathers their cards and places them in the middle of the table.

"3...2...1!" V counts down as everyone flips over their cards to reveal Jennie having the skull card.

"NO!" She screams but gets overshadowed by BTS' whoops, screams and hollers of excitement.

"YES!" Jimin screamed while V & Jungkook fist pumped and J-Hope started jumping up and down on his seat.

"ABOUT TIME!" Rap Monster yelled, raising his hands up in the air.

"FINALLY!" Suga clapped

Jennie buried her face in her hands, while they continued celebrating. She couldn't believe her luck had run out. She was so close to being two rounds without getting the skull card.

"MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED! MISS BANGTAN HAS BEEN CAUGHT!"

"THANK YOU! THANK YOU!"

"JENNIE IS GETTING PUNISHED!"

Running her hands through her hair, she throws her head back and puts her hands up in the air.

"WHY!?" She cried in despair. "This is rigged!"

"Muahahahah! How does it feel Ennie?" Jimin teased.

"Jennie, Jennie Jennie Jennie~. Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jen~" They sang and clapped as she sighed loudly, accepting her fate.

A glass of beet juice was presented to the table, grabbed by Jin as he took a big sniff. "Nice and fresh." He nodded in approval.

Jungkook takes it and takes a whiff of it, too. "Strong stuff." He sets it down in front of Jennie.

"Well, Jen...it's all yours. Go wild~" V presented.

"Drink up Jennie!" Jimin said with a smirk. This was going to be so good to watch. Finally, she was caught. He was thrilled.

"Ah...I just remembered I left the oven on so-" She tried to leave but Jungkook wrapped his arms around her waist from behind and hugged her tightly as she tried to escape. "Nooooooo!" She yelled in desperation while everyone laughed at her. No matter how many times she squirmed around in his arms, Jungkook wouldn't let up.

"Drink the beet juice," Suga demanded in a low tone, trying to scare her.

"There's no escaping your fate Miss Bangtan." J-hope played along in a dark tone and laughed evilly with Rapmon, Jimin, V and Suga. They were staring at her weirdly, trying to scare and creep her out.

"STHAP~" She shrieked at their intense looks and laughed, shaking her head at a fast pace while Kookie continued to hold onto her.

Jennie felt the vibration of Jungkook's chest when he chuckled against her, amused at how to guys were acting, while Jin giggled next to her.

"Your hair smells nice," Jungkook mentioned

"Ah, good to know when I got you guys staring at me like you're the killers in a horror movie!" She replied in a sarcastic tone as he laughed in response.

"Keep holding her Jungkook. She might escape." Rap Monster requested.

"What? I'll do no such thing!" She decided to get comfortable in Jungkook's arms and grabbed the glass. Looks like she wasn't going anywhere.

She takes a deep breath and puts it between her lips. The strong scent made her groan, knowing it was the real stuff. Defeated, she reluctantly takes a small sip and automatically sets it down, gagging.

"Oh my God, this is so gross! I have to drink ALL of this!?" She turned to the cameras as the guys laughed at her freak out.

"No escape. Drink up. Or I'll write on your face again." Suga threatened.

"You'll do that anyway!" She declared before picking up the glass again. She started chugging it, trying to ignore the bitter taste against her now tasteless taste buds as the guys looked on in wonder and shock. Cringing with each big gulp, she finally slams it down, finishing the whole drink. "UGH GOD! Oh my God! Can I PLEASE get some water!?" She started coughing.

"She chugged it all!" V picked up the glass and looked at the bottom.

"Wow~" Jin looked on in surprise and Jimin giggled at her pain. 

"My mouth is suffering!" She exclaimed as she was refused water for the time being.

'Stage 7'

'Jitting the ddakji on the back'

'On your back let's play the memorable ddakji'

"Oh dear." Jennie looked on as she still tasted the bitterness in her mouth. At least she'll get health benefits from the beets. 

Once given the cards, they flip them over to reveal J-Hope with the skull card. Rap Monster starts acting hyped while Jin yells 'Yah!'

J-Hope sat there in despair and disbelief. "Why do I feel as though my hopeful existence has disappeared." He grumbled.

Once he's laid on his chest, on top of the table, they pull up his shirt to reveal his back. Jennie looks on in amazement when everyone hits him. Mentally thanking her luck that she didn't get this punishment.

'Stage 8'

"It's the last stage, right? A really impacting punishment is awaiting us." V mentioned

"Watch it be Jennie again!" Jimin teased.

"Jimin, hush! You had two punishments. Watch this be your third one!" She stuck her tongue out at him while he continued to giggle.

'Sing a song!'

"I was wondering why we came to the karaoke room!" J-Hope mentioned.

Everyone flips their cards after they are given a chance to change. Jennie decided to not take any chances and kept her card. Once they flip them over, Rap Monster gets the skull while everyone else rejoices.

"I knew it was going to be me!" He yelled

'Exactly what is the theme of the song-singing mission?'

Getting prepared for the punishment, Rap Monster wears a wig and changes while Jennie and the rest of BTS sit, preparing for his performance.

'Costume and Makeup setting complete! Wonder Go Soyoung Rap Mon's looks are? Falling in front of the screen it's a seaweed curtain.'

Rap Monster starts singing Ddokdo is Korea Land while Jennie covers her mouth at the sight.

'Southeast from Ulleungdo its 200 miles. Solitary island for migrating birds.' He continues singing while everyone else dances. 

Soon Jennie starts getting into the rhythm, dancing along with the beat, laughing at the sight in front of her.

"Swag!" Rap Monster ends the song.

They were all so weird, but she couldn't help but feel so comfortable around them. They were great guys to be around. She was looking forward to seeing what the future holds with her and BTS.

'Chuseok Special'

'Bangtan State Merit Exams'

All 8 members of BTS wore Hanboks, while Jennie wore a light pink Hanbok. She was reluctant at first to even put it on since she wasn't even from South Korea, and didn't want to disrespect anyone. But after some reassurance from everyone, she finally decided to put it on. 

A bell is rung by Eunuch who hosted the exams for BTS. "Gather bachelors and bachelorette!"

Once they all gathered around, Eunuch sighed at their goofiness. "Everyone who has come to Bangtan State Merit Exams, welcome."

'3 Liberal arts exams and 3 military service exams to distinguish BTS' true merit scholar! During each exam, first place will get three points. And last place will get 1 point. The bachelor or bachelorette with the most points will receive a department store gift card and a king/queen's rights during End-plate king/queen'

Once inside, everyone is seated, sitting pretzel style, applauding for what's to come in excitement. Jennie had to admit she was nervous. She wasn't used to this yet and had no idea what to expect. She might as well forfeit right here. But she really wanted that Queen's right for the End-Plate King/Queen.

"Chuseok special Bangtan State Merit Exam please meet our seven bachelors and our bachelorette who are here for the liberal arts exam." Eunuch read from a card, while Bangtan greeted him. "I'll tell you about the first subject coming up!" He revealed a scroll, that opens down to say, 'Write lyrics bragging about yourself'

Jennie 'Hopeless Bangtan Girl' (GAH! I have A LOT to work on with myself. I can't write lyrics in like ten minutes!)

"We'll start now!" Eunuch banged on the bell as everyone started to write.

Jennie sat there, looking at the blank paper in front of her. "This is not going to end well." She chuckled nervously to the camera in front of her.

'Exam time end'

"And now we'll go into time for publication!" Eunuch announced

Once all the guys had gone, singing their goofy lyrics, it was finally Jen's turn as she nervously stood before everyone.

"Oh boy." She cleared her throat. "Who is that girl over there? Oh, it must be BTS' adorable female maknae. With nice smelling hair and the prettiest smile, no one can compare to me~" She sang in a cute voice.

"Whoa~" The guys look on in wonder as she feels her face heat up.

Jennie 'Embarrassed Bangtan Girl' (That was so embarrassing! I promise I won't make corny lyrics like that for our songs! J-just bear with me here! Ahh I hope my sisters aren't watching this! *Covers face in shame*)

After the judges judge their performances, they go to the results. 

"Bangtan state merit exam, liberal arts first exam, second class....Jimin! In this exam, there are two people awarded second class. Another second class is Bachelor Jin. The owner of honor of first class? Golden Makane Jungkook!"

"Hah hah hah!" Jennie laughed with the guys as Jungkook started doing his victory dance, standing on top of his head, and doing a pose.

"What are you doing?" Jin questioned.

"Bangtan state merit exam, liberal arts second exam!" Eunuch revealed the next scroll.

'BTS 5 Elements'

'Complete your 5 elements with BangTanSoNyeonDan. Time limit of three minutes'

While the guys were writing, Jennie sat there, staring at her blank paper yet again. 

"I am seriously having a brain fart." She murmured, shaking her head as the time ran out.

"Jennie, why is your paper blank?" Jungkook pointed out.

"I didn't write anything~" She admitted and put her head down while the guys laughed.

"She's disqualified!" Jimin yelled while the guys agreed.

"Looks like Smartie isn't so smart today, huh?" Suga teased.

"Yah! Give me a break!" She waved them away.

Jennie 'Failing all exams' (Eh heh heh...I am not off to a good start, huh? I dunno what's wrong. Why I am not writing and trying to win this? My brain just wouldn't come up with anything. I ate breakfast...I had some smarties...I wonder what's the problem. But I will be coming back with a vengeance. Just a matter of when. I'm staying optimistic. Don't give up on me, just yet!)

Once Eunuch announces Jin as the second class winner and J-Hope as the first class winner, they transition to the next exam. "Bangtan State Merit Exam, before we start with the 3rd liberal arts exam, I'll let you know of the mid-way results."

So far, Jungkook and J-Hope have three points, Jin has two, and Jimin has one. Jennie, Suga, Rap Monster and V have zero points.

Jennie 'Triggered Bangtan Girl' (ZERO! Zero POINTS!! ZERO! This is UN-Acceptable! I need to get my act together.)

"Liberal art's 3rd exam." He reveals the next scroll.

'Draw the member's faces'

'Get to know the seven bachelors and bachelorette's drawing skills! Liberal arts 3rd exam! Draw the member's faces!'

'Time limit of 10 minutes. Draw the face of the member you love the most'

'Expressing of the key point details in the face and creating a masterpiece to be awarded first class!'

'Judging criteria 1. Grasp the member's specialties with sharp eyes'

'2. Quality more than quantity a masterpiece!'

Jennie 'Optimistic Bangtan Girl' (Let's see what I remember in art class!)

Suga and V drew J-Hope, Rap Monster and J-Hope drew Jimin, while Jin chose Rap Monster, Jimin chose Suga and Jungkook chose Rap Monster's loss of color face.

"Who did Miss Bangtan draw?" J-Hope looked on in anticipation.

"I...drew Suga." She revealed her drawing with a smile. The drawing she drew was of Suga rapping in his No More Dream outfit. She put a lot of detail into his face, showing his gummy smile, which really caught everyone's eye.

Suga looked on in surprise. "M-me?" He looked at her drawing in awe. She really nailed his gummy smile. He had to stand up and take a good look.

Suga 'Shocked' (I wasn't expecting her to pick me. I'm really surprised and touched that she really likes me the most. I wonder why.)

Jennie 'Inspired by Suga' (Why did I choose Suga? I really admire him. I love his passion for music and his rapping. Even though we do bicker and I'm still not over him drawing on my face, I still think he's awesome and a great person. I hope to rap like him, one day. He has inspired me to learn about rapping. I...wanted to ask him if maybe he could teach me, but I'm so nervous, I decided that I'm not ready to ask him for that request yet. I hope he doesn't see this confession. Soon I'll tell him how much I admire him, face to face! Don't show it!)

"Can you imitate him?" Rap Monster requested

"Yeah, I can imitate him." She cleared her throat, changing her demeanor to look more serious. "I wanna big house, big cars & big rings. But sasireun I dun have any big dreams. Haha nan cham pyeonhage sareo. ggum ddawi an ggwodo amudo mwora an hajanheo!" She rapped successfully, moving just like Suga on stage with attitude as everyone applauded.

"That was pretty good." Suga nodded in approval.

"The second class goes to Jungkook and Suga." Eunuch announced. 

Suga was shocked and didn't hold back on the complaints. "Shouldn't I get first class? This is a fraud! It's the writer's conspiracy! What else have you to say? It's a fraud by the writers!"

"The highly anticipated first class goes to...Bachelorette Jennie!" Eunuch points to her as she looks up in shock.

"That doesn't make senseeee~" Jimin whined in a loud voice as she started to jump around, cheering.

"Yeah! I'm back with a vengeance! Let's go!" She cheered

Jennie 'Making a comeback' (Perseverance! I hope I'll able to be the Queen of the plate this time. Watch out boys! This Bangtan Girl is about to claim that throne! Woo hoo!)

After the liberal arts exams, have been finalized, it was now time for the military service exams. Results so far are Jungkook with 4 points, J-Hope and Jennie with Three points, Jin with 2 points, Rap Monster and V with no points, Jimin and Suga with 1 point.

Standing outside, the group changed their clothes as they prepared for their next exam which was archery. Suga vs J-Hope was first. J-Hope kept missing the target and ended up getting beaten by Suga.

With V vs Jimin, V hit the bullseye but it fell off, not sticking enough. V ended up winning the battle anyway. Once it was time for Jin vs Rap Monster, they both kept missing the target, making everyone laugh. It took forever and they had to change the rules. Whoever hit inside the red circle would win. Finally, Rap Monster prevailed.

'Jennie vs Jungkook.'

'Battle between the Maknaes. Who will triumph?'

"This is going to be good." Jimin looked on.

"The battle between our two babies! I wonder who will win." Jin wondered, proud of his children.

Jungkook faced off with Jennie, as they stared each other down. He crossed his arms while she put her hands on her hips.

"Jennie, I hope you know what your fate is. You're going down." He teased.

"All I gotta say is that you're going down and I am not backing down. So be prepared."

"I'm the golden Maknae for a reason."

"Not for long." She smiled

"Jungkook is good at everything but not archery." Rap Monster mentioned.

Jungkook draws his arrow back first and releases it quickly. However, the arrow ends up hitting the floor as the guys laugh hysterically.

"That was...pretty golden Kookie." V teased as the Golden Maknae looked on in disbelief.

Meanwhile, Jennie got her bow and arrow ready, slowly drawing the arrow back. Taking a deep breath, she focused on the target. 

'One...two...release!' She released the arrow hitting it close to the bullseye.

"Yes!" She shouted with excitement

"Oh~" The guys yell, getting hyped.

Jungkook just stares at her arrow and back to her. She sticks her tongue out at him, making him glare playfully. This was the start of a competitive friendship. He attempts to hit the target again but fails as Jimin laughs at him. "Shut up, hyung!"

Back to the female member of BTS, she managed to hit the target in the bullseye but it fell off.

"YO! Unbelievable!" She shouted over the hollering guys who were saying how close it was.

Jungkook failed yet again to hit the target and once Jennie hit her arrow near the bullseye, it became clear that she was the winner as he accepted his defeat.

"WOO!" She started jumping up and down, spinning around. "That was pure luck!"

'Semi Finals'

'Suga vs V.'

Suga's bow and arrow skills were impressive as he kept hitting the same place while V couldn't hit the spot. When it was Jennie's turn against her leader, Rap Monster, she won quickly thanks to him missing each time.

Jennie 'Elated Competitor' (I'm finally getting the hang of this!)

"Wha~ why am I defeated!?" Rap Monster squinted his eyes shut, clenching his fists in despair.

'Finals'

'Jennie vs Suga'

This was an intense battle as both continued to hit the target near the bullseye. But it wasn't until Suga finally hit the bullseye, that he was declared the winner. The members playfully question why he chose rapping when he's so good at archery.

"The winner of the first Military Service exam goes to...Suga!" Eunuch announced as everyone enthusiastically applauded his win.

Jennie obtains 1 point so now she has 4 while Suga and Jungkook also have 4 points.

Jennie 'Cool and Calm' (I'm tied for first place with two other guys. As long as I keep trying to at least get a second place spot to gain more points, I should be A-OK.)

'Together with the flying tinker bells. Second exam, horse-riding! Two bachelors will ride their own ponies. First person to go one round and return back, wins!'

Jennie 'Determined' (I really want to be the Queen this time. I NEED to win this. Do you know how cool that'll be? No more punishments like drinking that disgusting beet juice!? I need a break!)

"That's easy!" Jimin pointed out.

The first battle consisted of Jimin and J-Hope. The intense bout was close but then Jimin decided to stand up and run the horse to the finish line after J-Hope created a big gap, taking the lead. Nonetheless, J-hope was declared the winner.

Next was Suga vs Jin. Jin started with a fast start but Suga quickly caught up and took the lead. The oldest member decided to stop while Suga took the finish line, and a roar of laughter escaped the members' mouths.

'Jennie vs Jungkook'

Jennie adjusted herself on the white plastic toy horse. "This is too goofy." She admitted while Jungkook sat on his horse next to her.

As soon as they get the OK to go, adrenaline goes around Jen's body as both she and Jungkook quickly move their feet to accelerate. Both equally take a fast pace, neck and neck.

"I don't even know who's winning!" J-Hope said with excitement in his voice.

Rap Monster (I definitely see a fire in Jennifer's eyes. She really wants that Queen of the End-Plate privilege.)

Once Jennie and Jungkook circle around the post, Jennie's heart starts to race as Jungkook gets a little bit ahead of her. The atmosphere was loud with the members watching, cheering and yelling out goofy commentary.

"Who shall win this battle?" J-Hope spoke in a dramatic tone

"Will it be the beautiful Miss Bangtan? Or will it be our handsome Golden Maknae!?" Jimin added to the fun.

Their goofy banter almost got her distracted because she was close to laughing. But getting back on track and focused, she increases her speed despite the pain on her behind from the tiny horse. Her efforts are rewarded when she ends up going ahead, with Jungkook high on her tail.

"OOOHHHHHHH!"

The loud, goofy voices of the members stand up, jumping up and down.

Jennie let out a sigh of relief when she made it to the finish line a second before Jungkook.

"BOOYAH!" She celebrated, throwing her arms up in the air.

"Again?" Jungkook groaned, throwing his head back.

Jungkook 'Mindboggled' (How? She was behind me!)

"Sorry Kookie. I just really want to win that end-plate position." She grinned sheepishly. "No hard feelings?"

"Don't talk to me." He playfully brushed her off while she chuckled lightly at him.

Jennie 'Behind really hurts' (Y'know those tiny horses really take a number on your butt. My butt hurts.)

When V goes up against Rap Monster, V wins by a landslide, making the leader throw his horse.

"Ahhh! He threw the horse!" Jennie laughed out loud.

Jennie (RIP Horse 2013-2013!)

"If I wore better pants, I'll win!" Rap Monster blames.

'Semi-finals'

'J-Hope vs Suga'

"J-Horse and rapid speed' vs 'Getting merit 2 times consecutive'

When they both were on their horses, Eunuch requested that they say something to each other.

"Honestly, since he's J-Horse and he even looks like it too, I feel burdened, I'll try my best." Suga said.

"I'll win this coolly," J-Hope responded with a bright smile.

When it was time to go, J-Hope quickly dashes away, leaving Suga in the dust while everyone whoops and cheers. Suga laughed it off, taken aback by his speed.

'V vs Jennie'

"Do you have anything to say to each other?" Eunuch asked

"Let's have a good match, best friend!" V happily smiled at her as she gave him a big high five.

"You bet! Let's do this!" She responded ecstatically.

Once they were ready, V continued to waddle and gain speed on his horse, with Jennie right behind him. But as soon as they circle the post, Jennie gains her speed and dashes forward. 

"Ah! She caught up!" Jimin acknowledged, clapping his hands.

"No~ Jennie!" V laughed as he tried to catch up with her and ended up losing.

'Bachelorette Jennie enters finals!'

'Finals'

'J-Hope vs Jennie'

"Right now, my legs are hurting so much. I don't know what to do about it." J-Hope admited.

"Hey, my butt hurts." She replied, making him giggle.

Once the sound of the gong is heard, both parties dash forward but J-Hope quickly leaves her in the dust. 

"Bro!" She exclaimed with a laugh as she circled the post, with J-Hope way ahead. He wins after going through the finish line.

"How can he be so fast!?" She laughed, arriving at the finish line.

"That was not even humanely possible." Jungkook addressed.

At the end of the exam, J-Hope obtains three points while Jennie obtains 1. So now Jennie has five points.

BTS and Jennie stand in between Eunuch and his gong as they applaud. 

"Finally it's the last!" Suga looked relieved.

"Last exam! A traditional game played by all ethnics. Chicken fight!" Eunuch announced.

'Bangtan State Merit exam Military Service last exam!'

'Traditional game played by all ethnics chicken fight!'

'All eight bachelors and bachelorette will start together in a single match'

'The last bachelor or bachelorette standing wins'

"Our seven bachelors and bachelorette please step forward and get prepared." Eunuch announced as they get into the chicken fight ring

Jennie 'Asking for Strength' (My tiny behind is in a chicken fight ring with seven guys. SEVEN. I need ALL the strength I can get for this. I WANT that Queen of the End-Plate position!)

The guys stretch and Jennie follows suit by stretching out her arms and then her legs. Once Eunuch says go, Jennie tries to keep her distance from everyone as she holds her crossed leg by the ankle, standing on one leg.

Jungkook and Jin meet in the middle, while Jennie stands in a corner, watching the show.

Jennie 'Keeping Distance' (I think I know how to win this. Let me let the guys fight, and then I can think of a plan from there. I just need to keep my distance and wait it out. My strategy is patience and defense. I'm more of a defensive person when it comes to competitions like this. Offense, not so much.)

Hopping forward, Jungkook attempts to attack Jin with his strength but Jin maintains his balance. All of a sudden, Jungkook does an aerial flying attack with his knee, surprising Jin.

"Rapmon! I choose you!" Jin pointed as Rap Monster and Jimin began to battle it out. It was hilarious watching everyone hop and jump all over the place.

Jennie watched as Rap Monster bumped into Jungkook and Jimin while Jin hopped right over to V. She quickly hopped away since she was right near V. Out of nowhere, she shrieked when Suga roughly bumped into her on purpose.

"Cut it out!" She swiftly hopped away from him as he laughed. He almost knocked the wind out of her. Any harder, she would've been eliminated.

V bumps Jin, resulting in the oldest member putting his leg down, eliminating him. Suga tries to bump everyone since he was alone and it ends up backfiring when he gets bumped three times. For his fate, he's bumped by V and falls out of the ring, making everyone laugh.

"Jennie! Whose team are you on? Join me and Jungkook! We'll protect you!" Jimin called out.

"I'm Switzerland!" She called out, trying to escape the drama.

Jungkook ended up slipping and falling down when he tried to hit J-Hope when he countered it.

"How could you do that to our Jungkookie!" Jimin yelled and tried to attack him but got hit and fell down.

'Jungkook's Pokemon Bachelor Jimin eliminated!'

After managing to hide for so long, Jennie goes full defense mode as J-Hope starts to go after her.

"Oh come on! I was doing so good!" She started hopping all over the ring, with him following her.

"Nope!" She evaded his bump and lightly bumped him back.

"I got your back!" V comes to her rescue, bumping into J-Hope, but ends up falling on his butt in the process.

"Awe man, V!" She laughed.

Staying away from Rap Monster and J-Hope's battle, Jennie watches as Rapmon's powerful hit, causes J-Hope to twirl around and falls down.

"HIII-YA!" She yelled, bumping Rap Monster with all her might, making him stumble from behind, once he recovered, he remained unfazed. "Are you-are you serious!? That didn't work!?"

Jennie 'Shocked' (HOW!? *Throws her arms up in the air*)

"Any last words, Jennie?" He teased, hopping up to her.

Hopping back for her life, she shakes her head. "Wait! Wait! I want a redo! AH!" Swiftly moving to the side, she escapes Rapmon's strike. "Let's talk about this!"

No matter how many times Rapmon would strike her, she would manage to avoid any type of contact.

Rap Monster 'In Charge of Destroying' (Jennie is small and quick. But soon I'll catch her. She can't avoid my attacks forever.)

"Wow~ she's really good at her defense!" Jimin praises with a big smile. "Go Jennie~"

Jennie 'Defensive Bangtan Member' (Obviously Rap Monster is stronger than me, so I had no choice but to go on a defensive route until I could find a way to make him lose his balance. I can smell the Queen of the end-plate prize already. I won't back down now! I have to win this!)

Noticing Rapmon getting a bit tired from putting all his strength into attempting to bump her, she finally takes advantage. When he attempts to strike her again, she finally counters, making him lose his balance.

"WHAAAAA~" The boys yell, getting hyped up.

While he was wobbling to stay on his foot, she bumped him on the shoulder and he fell on the ground.

"AHHHHHHH~" The guys start cheering.

"YES! YES! YES! YES!" She jumped up and down after putting her leg down.

"Aish...so close." Rap Monster sighed. 

He takes Jennie's hand and gets helped up by her. After receiving three more points, she had 8 points in total, declaring her the winner.

'Miss Bangtan has come back with a vengeance and won the battle!'

'Welcome the Queen of the end-plate!'

At the end of the exams, she gets carried easily by V and Jimin as she wears a hat with Sakura flowers on top. While being carried, Jungkook and Jin toss sakura blossoms at her while J-Hope, Suga and Rapmon dance and sing around.

"Y'know I can really get used to this. I feel like a princess." She laughed, goofing off with the guys.

Jennie 'Queen of the end-plate' (Girl power! Don't ever give up! You can always bounce back and come back to win! I am so anticipating the end-plate. No punishments for me!)

'We are curious about BTS' favorite songs! The 7 men and woman karaoke real show time!'

'Bangtan Karaoke'

Jennie sat on the couch with Jin, V and Rapmon. Suga, who was the MC for the day, grabbed a mic.

"To the people that's joining us in Bangtan Karaoke, welcome!" He announced while everyone applauded. "It's time for us to listen to a song with a special story. Everyone are you ready? You guys ready? You ready? Then please shout!"

"WOOOOOOHHHHH"

"Guys we will start off with the song no.18, Dynamic Duo's song by J-Hope." Suga announced.

'Her Man'

'Overcoming the disappointment from a relationship, coming back as a superb solo. J-Hope's favorite song full of meanings'

'Original singer: Dynamic Duo"

'Song title: Solo'

'Song from: J-Hope'

J-Hope (The song that I'll be singing is, Dynamic Duo's solo. In the past, I had a girlfriend that I liked a lot but she left me for another man. With a really upset heart, I rode the bus. That time I owned an MP3 player and played it. After turning it on, by accident, this song started playing. This song was one of my memories. And do, my favorite song is Dynamic Duo's solo.)

"Whoo!" J-Hope yelled on the mic. "Put your hands up!"

"Put your hands up!" Jimin repeated, putting up his hands with everyone else. 

Jennie stands up with the rest of the guys and starts dancing around while J-Hope starts to rap the song. Overall, it was a great start to Karaoke.

"The next player is...Golden Maknae, Jungkook!" Suga announced and handed him the mic.

'The last practiced song'

'Right before debuting, Jungkook still with the title of a trainee, the last song he received a lesson for'

'Original singer: Primary (Feat. Zion.T/Gaeko)'

'Song title: See Through'

'Song by: Jungkook'

Jungkook (The song that I've prepared is Zion.T. See Through. Before debuting, I received one last lesson. The lesson that I received was on this song. If you look at Zion.T he has a way that he sings that's quite unique. I tried singing as he did, but I couldn't do it that well. It was a song where I was scolded a lot.)

Once Jungkook starts singing, Jennie and the rest of the guys nod their heads and start moving around in their seats.

'A hurtful memory'

'During a school festival, because of the missing MR, he lost the chance to sing it. A song filled with Rapmon's heartbreaking memory'

'Original singer: Supreme Team'

'Song title: School bell is ringing'

'Song by: Rap Monster'

Rapmon (I will be singing, school bell is ringing. Actually, during a school festival, this was a song I wanted to sing that time. With that, I practiced really hard for it. On the day of the festival, I didn't have the MR of the song and I couldn't perform on stage. And so today I would want to try and sing it today.)

For his performance, Rap Monster goofily raps the song, copying the rapper.

"Yo..." Jennie broke out in a grin. "Uh huh!? UH! UH! OKAY? OKAY?" She nodded her head at the beat, hyping Rap Monster even more with Suga rapping with him.

"LOUDER!" Suga sang while jumping up and down.

"What is going on!?" Jennie threw her head back, laughing out loud as Rap Monster started messing up, and the performance began to become a funny mess.

'The beat is wrong'

'I don't care anymore. Let's just dance'

'Audition memories'

'During the audition for the company, he sang it ambitiously. But the expressions around him was darkening. After that, so was the song'

'Original singer: 2AM'

'Song title: This Song'

'Song by: Jin'

Jin (I will be singing 2AM's this song. When I auditioned for the company, Big Hit, I sang this song. Seriously, their expressions weren't really impressed. I'm not sure how I'll do this time.)

Jin begins to sing, passionately while Jennie holds her hand over her heart, watching in awe.

"Ahh...so angelic..." She sighed in happiness.

With J-Hope's occasional YEAHs and Jungkook's oohs, Jennie couldn't help but snicker as she tried to cover her mouth to muffle the laughs. Jin ends up laughing thanks to Jungkook's background singing as J-Hope and V stand up to dance around.

J-Hope releases V and makes his way over to Jennie, grabbing her hand and making her stand up. 

"When did I agree to this?" She ended up giggling when he spun her around and dipped her. They begin slow dancing around the room.

Jin (I sang it with the same emotions while auditioning but I'm worse now. That's why it was quite disappointing. I will work harder to be able to sing better next time.)

"All right, next up is Miss Bangtan! Let's give it up for Smartie!" Suga yelled on the mic as the guys whooped and hollered for her.

"Yeah! Let's go Jennie!" J-Hope yelled and clapped loudly with Jimin and Jungkook.

'Introduced To A Whole New Perspective of Korean Music'

'Listening to more variety of music in Korea, Jennie came across solo artist Ailee and immediately was hooked. Ailee's voice sparked Jennie's motivation to continue perfecting her singing skills'

'Original Singer: Ailee'

'Song title: U&I'

'Song by: Jennie'

Jennie (I have TONS of favorite songs. But recently, I started to listen to more Korean songs and fell in love with Ailee's music. It was so funny, I was just shuffling through random K-pop songs and all of a sudden I heard this strong voice and I was like, "SLAY ME!". I thought it was an English song by mistake but I was so wrong. Her voice is amazing and so gifted. I hope to sing as well as her one day. She's really great. I love how smoothly her voice moves with such powerful instruments like the trumpets. I love that style of music and I hope to sing songs like that, too in the future. Songs like this really wake up the crowd and get everyone moving. Her voice has so much soul and passion. I want my voice to touch people, too.)

"HHHHHHheeeeeyyyyyyy." She starts strong when the song comes on and the guys immediately start dancing while she shimmies to the left and right when the beat drops. "Hey, hey. Yeah, yeah yeah~. Ha! Cut the beat now! Wait a minute, wait a minute, mal jalla mianhande."

Jennie (Of course I don't sound anything like her and tried to make the song my own. I do want to sing this song again in a couple of years to see how much I improve. I want to watch the before and after to see if I made progress with my singing.)

'Bangtan's muscled cutie, Jimin!'

Jimin (The song I'll sing today is Taeyang's only look at me. A really long time ago, I had a one-sided love. When I look at her, my heart would st...hahaha. My face would go be as red as a tomato when we stood 5 meters apart. Just like a censor...those were my memories of it.)

Once the song comes on, Jimin starts dancing, with some quick footwork. Jen drops her jaw when Jungkook and Jimin sing together.

"Bring up one note, can I do it again?" Jimin asked as he stopped singing.

"I'M DONE!" Jennie shook her head, throwing her arms up in the air.

'My one and only chorus to sing to keeps getting missed'

"Stop! Stop! Be quiet, please." Jimin tried to remove the mic from Jungkook but he kept on singing.

'Stopping the song in a rush'

"Whoa! How did he get 82 points if he didn't sing even half of it?" Jen laughed, pointing at the screen.

'This is not supposed to happen'

Suga made Jimin sit down as he complained. "Is this really the end of it?" Jimin questioned in disbelief.

"Can you please sit down? You only have one chance." Suga ordered.

Jimin (They didn't give me a chance to sing it again. I really wanted to sing it. I wanted to voice out the feels I have inside me. The members wouldn't give me a chance to do so. *Sigh*)

'It's such a pity, maybe next time...(will there be a next time?)'

"The song that V has prepared?" Suga asked.

"I will be singing Lee Juck's rain." He answered.

'The raining day'

'A song with a painful memory. He listened to it during the rainy day he was trying to confess his one-sided love'

'Original singer:Lee Juck'

'Song title: Rain'

'Song by: V'

V (I've prepared a song from Lee Juck called Rain. I had a one-sided love with a girl in the past. I wanted to confess to her via a phone call. But it was raining that day, because of that, she didn't pick up the call. I was really sad... on my way home on the bus, this song suddenly played. That's one of my memories.)

Once V starts singing, Jennie waves her phone around, pretending it's a lighter, while the guys goof off in the background. 

"SING IT!" She shouted. "SING IT, V! TELL US YOUR STORY! YEAH BOY! WOO!"

"How come you weren't this enthusiastic for me?" Jimin called out, feeling offended. "I thought we were best friends!"

"YAH! She's my best friend. Get your own!" Jungkook pointed at him.

"Hush, Jungkook!"

"Best friend or not, clearly she likes V more than the both of you." Suga bluntly replied while Jen let out a short chuckle. Before she knew it, she was joining the guys to chant 'Kim Taehyung' before he finished the song.

"To carry up this momentum, a fun and enjoyable song should be played next, right?" Suga asked

"Ddaengbul!"

'Karaoke's classic song'

'The song middle schooler Suga sang to heat up the mood'

'Original Singer: Kangjin'

'Song title: Ddaengbul'

'Song by: Suga'

Suga (The song I'm singing today, it's called Ddaengbul. In middle school when my friends and I went to a karaoke, we sang this song. Whenever we sang this song, it always boosts up the mood. I will be singing this song, since it reminds me of the fun I had when I sang it with my friends.)

'The enjoyment is felt from the start'

Everyone starts goofily dancing while Suga sings with random expressions as they all dance around. It felt great to let loose and just act wild and weird for a change. The song was a great choice to end karaoke.

Suga (I don't think it was just hectic. It's been a long time since we've been to a karaoke together. I really think we enjoyed it a lot. I think it's fine to say we lost our minds.)

"Bangtan Karaoke with Bangtan, it was really fun. I hope you go home safely. Let's see each other again, next time!" Suga wrapped up.

"See you again, next time! Yo wassup!" V yelled.

------

'Unlucky King/Queen'

Located in a gym, the 8 members of BTS gather around and flip their cards over to see who would be the King or Queen. When Rap Monster is crowned King, he sits in the middle while Jennie sits in between V and Jungkook.

'STAGE 1'

'Woongnyu's candy'

'Woongnyu who ate garlic to become a human!'

'A sweet garlic candy from Woongnyu'

"Starting from the 1st stage, things are quite...serious," Rapmon mentioned.

"Is this a joke?" J-Hope asked in a nervous voice.

"There's such thing as garlic candy?" Jennie questioned in disbelief.

"You wanna volunteer to try it?" Suga offered.

"Yeah, sure." She shrugged

"Really!?" V yelled in a happy voice, breaking out into a grin.

"Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-Heck no!" She yelled back, making the guys giggle at her comment.

Once they flip their cards over, it's revealed to be Jimin who the skull card as a chorus of yeahs surround the room.

"Eeeeuuuaaaaaaa!" Jimin yelled out of frustration

'Punishment inherent Jimin. A forceful skull present to you'

"There's not even once where I'm not caught!" Jimin yelled in despair.

Once the candy is presented, the candy goes around as the members examine it. 

"This is not garlic, it's lemon candy." Rap Monster observed.

"It does smell like it a bit." Jennie pointed out. Maybe this wouldn't be such a bad punishment after all.

When Jimin opens the candy, he takes a sniff and confirms that it smells like lemon candy and puts a piece in his mouth at ease.

'The devils are only waiting for him to chew the garlic'

All of a sudden, once he chews it, he starts to cringe. "The candy is quite hot." He confirmed. 

J-Hope unfortunately gets a whiff of his bad breath and covers his mouth.

"Don't open your mouth, please." He laughed, while Jimin finished eating the rest of the candy.

Jimin starts coughing loudly and pulls himself together. "Thank you for giving me such delicious candy." He managed to say.

"Why are you crying, Jimin?" Jin asked

"Must be because the candy is so delicious," Suga replied.

'Chewed! Opened! Tasted! Bangtan Garlic Candy'

'STAGE 2'

'Sweep down the face'

'As much as you love the member, use your hands and sweep it down their faces'

Once they flip over the cards, it's revealed to be V with the skull card as Suga jumps up and yells "Finally! Finally! Finally!" while banging on the exercise ball behind him.

V lays on his back on the mat nervously. 

"Since his name is V, I'll do it with a hand gesture, V." Suga announced but ended up catching him off guard when he ran all five of his fingers, roughly against V's face. 

Jungkook goes next, running his hand quickly across his face. Once it was Jimin's turn, he evilly blew in V's face, making him sniff his foul breath. V squints up his face immediately.

'The vampire who ate a handful of garlic'

Jennie winces at the sight when Jimin slowly runs his hand against V's face. "Ahh his poor face." 

V starts kicking around while the guys laugh at his pain. Then Jimin blows his garlic breath in his face one more time, making him sit up and roll away in discomfort.

'STAGE 3'

'I'm not really laughing on the inside'

'Making a smiling face with an audio frequency'

Once they flip over the cards, it's revealed to be Suga as he starts kicking and punching the workout ball in anger. When he is laid across the mat, 

Once laid across the mat, connected to the equipment all over his face, Suga begins to tremble.

"Why are you trembling when it's not even turned on yet!" Jimin pointed out as Suga continued to tremble.

"Eeeeummm~" Suga mumbled in pain as he began to tremble for real once they turned it on.

"OMG! Yooo, he's shaking like crazy! Is he okay!?" Jennie covered her mouth.

"He'll be fine..." Rap Monster reassured before everyone continued laughing when Suga twitched and popped all over the place, getting electrified. "Stage 3 was boring." He declared after they unhooked Suga and his punishment was over.

"It wasn't fun at all." Jimin added.

"It looked painful, though!" Jennie said.

"IT WAS PAINFUL!" Suga shouted.

'STAGE 4'

'Firm biceps'

'Show off your real strength! Eat a jelly with a heavy fork'

"Firm biceps like these?" Jennie flexes her not so visual muscles.

"Very, very nice Jennie." Jimin pointed out. "But mine are better." He flexed his big muscles.

"Show off..." She muttered. Once she's older, she'll start working out more and compare muscles with Jimin.

Once they flip over the cards after Jimin trades the card with V, it's revealed to be V with the skull as they start acting hyped yet again. V bangs his fists on the mat while Jimin jumps up and down.

"I've made the right choice!" Jimin celebrated

When the jelly is presented, Jimin reveals the dumbbell that's connected to the fork. 

"What kind of shenanigans is this!? HOW!?" Jennie said over the guys' laughter. "This is...very creative."

"It's a 10kg dumbbell! Eating a jelly with a dumbbell?" Rap Monster questioned. 

This had to be the weirdest punishment ever.

"Jelly is even hard to eat with chopsticks!" J-Hope said

Once V grabs the dumbbell, he tries to pick up the jelly with the fork connected to the dumbbell but to no avail as Jennie starts giggling.

"Wait, why are you picking it like that?" Jin called out.

'In the end, frustrated Rapmon couldn't stand it'

"Look here, V. Bring it near to you and scoop it." He motioned

The guys and Jennie look on in frustration as they try to explain to V what to do but it doesn't get past him as he continues to struggle.

'V lost in his own world'

"You're joking right?" J-Hope lets out a short laugh.

'Finally the jelly touches the fork'

In the end, V finally picks up the jelly and takes a big bite.

"Finally!" Jen clapped over the guys' loud whoas and ohs.

'His expression darkens with the peculiar taste of the jelly'

"Do it like a man!" Jungkook motioned as V lifted it up and ate it. He ended up setting it down and bit into it while everyone laughed at his actions.

'The punishment totally differs from the production team's actual intention'

"He's crying." Jin laughed as V's eyes started to water.

'Suddenly thinking of his mom'

"Aw..." Jennie placed a hand on his cheek and wiped his tears. "The pain is only temporary, my friend."

'STAGE 5'

'Bangtan juice drinking'

'Every green veggies that are good for the body is in it. A healthy green juice for BTS'

"This juice could possibly be good, but the jelly just now, what was that!" V complained.

'Venting his anger from the inedible jelly from before'

"I'm curious, are you feeding us inedible things?" Suga laughed.

"I hope not!" Jennie called out.

Once they grab the cards, they flip them over to reveal Suga as he stands up and slams the card down.

"AWEEEE YEAHHHHH!" Jennie cheered. "Go Suga! Go Suga!"

"I can't help but think this is a scam." He declared. He lost count of how many times he's been caught.

"Suga, Suga, Suga, Suga~" Jennie and the rest of the members clap and sing.

"Isn't this a green tea latte?" Rap Monster asked as the beverage was presented.

Jimin sniffs it and says it looks edible. Once Suga takes a whiff of it, his face shows that something is really wrong. His face freezes as he takes a sip at the bitter taste.

"Suga is really good at holding it in." J-Hope pointed out. Once he reluctantly gulps two more times, he succeeds in the mission.

"He's a man! A true man!" Rapmon applauded.

Once Suga sets it down, Rap Monster goes to grab it but ends up spilling it. 

"Wow!" Jennie said with a sigh.

'Rap Monster the master of destruction'

"As expected the king of destruction," The guys clap while Jin facepalmed

"Isn't this poison?!" Suga pointed to the mysterious liquid.

'The green marks are like radioactive pollutants'

"I'm sorry, everyone!" Rapmon grinned sheepishly

'STAGE 6'

'HOT! HOT! IT'S ON FIRE!'

'Eat a whole bowl of different peppers'

"3! 2! 1!" Rapmon announced as they all flipped their cards over.

"YEAHHHHHH!"

"NOOOOOOOO!" Jennie screamed, slamming her fists on the mat multiple times as she yelled in distress. 

In the background, Suga, Jungkook, Jimin and J-Hope jump up and down, dancing all over the place. 

"Jennie, Jennie, Jennie, Jennie~" They sing.

"The Bangtan Girl has been caught, yet again! Thank you!"

"I was waiting for this!"

"Finally!"

"WOOOO HOOOO!"

Raising her head up, she glared playfully at the guys celebrating her punishment. "This is not right! Of all punishments!"

"Are you ready, Jennie?" Jimin asked her with a sly grin once the bowl of peppers were presented to her.

Jennie observes the peppers and looks away. "...No..."

"Well too bad!" Jimin laughs evilly with Suga and J-Hope.

"You know...I really don't understand what I've done to deserve such punishments like this." She sighed as she picked up the first pepper. 

It was a dark green Poblana pepper. She takes a bite of it and starts to chew. She could start her tongue starting to tingle from the spiciness but it was tolerable. 

"Okay...we're making progress. Not bad. I can survive this." She swallowed it and picked up the next one. The Jalapeno pepper. It was dark green as she examined it.

"Eat it!" Jimin eagerly yelled.

"Don't rush me, man!" She pointed to him. 

She places the whole thing in her mouth, and grimaces. Tears shimmered in her eyes as she threw her head back, trying to ignore the laughs from the guys. They were really enjoying this.

"I really can't stand you, all." She coughed a couple of times after swallowing. Her tongue was really burning now. It was really uncomfortable. Lastly, she tries to Habanero pepper. It was bright orange.

"I believe this is the hottest one." Jin declared.

"Is she going to eat it?" Suga anticipated.

Letting out a breath, Jennie pops the whole pepper in her mouth and starts chewing fast. The bitter, spicy taste evolved all around her mouth, making her yell out in discomfort. Standing up, she jumps up, fanning herself as she continues reluctantly chewing.

Tears began to stream down her colored skin as she dropped down to her knees, coughing. V rubs her back and tries to comfort her while everyone else continues to yell and cheer that she finally did it.

"Can I PLEASE have some water!?" She yelled. "I CAN'T GET ANY WATER!?" She shrieked and started coughing. "My GOD! WHY!? MOM~" She yelled in anguish as V wiped her tears with his thumb, returning the favor from his punishment.

'Miss Bangtan continues to suffer'

'STAGE 7'

'Tearful brushing'

'To make them a healthy idol, BTS's special brushing method'

"I'm ready to get this over with cause my tongue is numb, thanks to those friggin peppers." Jennie crossed her arms.

"Well, I just want to say that my tongue feels perfectly fine." Jimin teased with an eye smile.

"Hush Jimin!"

Once they flip the cards over, it's revealed to be Jimin with the skull card as he throws the card and starts walking away. Jennie holds onto Jungkook and laughs.

"Give us a statistic table! How many times have Jimin and I been caught." Suga requested

'The King of punishments has become a proper noun to Suga & Jimin'

"I'll do it like it's nothing, big!" Jimin reassured as he started brushing his teeth.

'1 minute is still far away but he freezes as soon as it entered his mouth'

'A fresh taste of wasabi toothpaste lingers in his mouth'

"Jimin's mouth smells bad?" Rapmon teased as he started blowing his breath at everyone once he was finished brushing.

"Ahhhh, put that away! It reeks!" Jennie covered her mouth. The foul stench is sickening and not a good mix.

'I'll blow you up with garlic + wasabi breath if you touch me'

'STAGE 8'

'Since you're at the gym, let's ride the treadmill?'

"Oh boy. Look like we're working out." Jennie assumed

Once they flip over the cards, it's finally revealed to be Jin for the last punishment.

"YAAAHHHHHHHHH"

'Pretty shoulders Jin is picked'

Suga picks up the exercise ball and celebrates while everyone else cheers around him. "Ah, why..." Jin complained

'The entrance of the exotic woman on the treadmill, what is her identity?'

Jin had a Chinese dress on while Jennie started laughing at him. "I really envy how nice his legs look," Jennie admitted while Jin started walking on the treadmill in the dress.

Once he starts jogging and trying to adjust the dress, Jen covers her mouth and falls to the ground, filled with laughter. "I can't!"

'I'm the Pink Princess Jin!'

------

After the show, Jungkook, Jen and Jin were back at the dorm while the rest were scattered. Either at the dance studio, getting food, or other errands. Jin was currently in the bathroom, taking a shower, while Jen made her way into the kitchen in her grey sweatpants and gray hoodie. Her hair was in a messy, curly bun on top of her head.

Taking out the tub of chocolate ice cream, she shuts the freezer door, to see Jungkook standing in the living room with a pillow in his hands. His eyes darted to her as he studied her every move.

"Uh...hey, buddy...what you got there?" She asked with a hint of nervousness.

"Oh, this?" The Golden Maknae glanced at the large, soft item in his hands "Just a pillow." He replied in an innocent tone.

"Ah...a pillow...for sleeping?" She questioned, uncertain of her fate.

"For hitting." His mouth curled into a smirk.

"Hitting...well I believe I-GOTTA JET!" She drops the tub of ice cream on the table and makes a run for it. Jungkook throws his pillow on the couch and dashes after her.

Running to her room, she tries to slam the door, but he catches it and manages to clasp his warm, strong hands with hers. She starts laughing as they both try to overpower each other. 

"Leave me alone!" She begged.

"Nope!" He laughed and attempted to trip her down.

"No! No! Aye! Aye!" She finally dropped to the ground.

"Nowhere to go now." He grabbed her ankle and started to drag her back to the living room.

"Wait! Wait!" She desperately cried out, trying to grab onto anything as she dragged her hands on the carpet. "Please! What did I do!?"

"You think I didn't forget about you ruining my white shirts?"

"I said I was sorry!"

"They were my white shirts, you did it on purpose! You're not sorry!"

She manages to squirm out of his grip and tries to crawl away but groans when he smacks her back with the pillow. She turns around and tries to block her face while he continues attacking her with the pillow.

"That's it! Gimme that!" She grabbed a hold of the pillow and pulled him down to the floor. 

Luckily she swipes the pillow from him and begins to whack him with his weapon while he tries to cover his face from the assault. As Jennie quickly gets up to her feet, Jungkook grabs a pillow from the couch and stands up. The two teens face off, with their hair disheveled as they stare each other down.

"This means war!" He yelled as they both attacked each other at the same time. The room was filled with laughter, the sound of the pillow attacks and occasional battle cries as the living room turned into a war zone.

"HIYA!" She smacked him right in the face with the pillow but gasped when he stood there frozen. "Oh crap, I'm so sorry, Kookie! Are you okay?" She walked up to him, reaching out to touch his cheek.

"Now I am." He quickly grabbed her before she had time to react.

"Jungkook!" She screamed when he picked her up over his shoulders. "Wait! Wait! Time out!"

"There are no timeouts when it comes to your punishment." He said with amusement and spun her around a couple of times.

Once she gets out of his grip, she manages to put him in a headlock and they stumble around until they end up bumping into a lamp. When they hear the loud sound of glass breaking, they release each other. Frozen still, they stare at each other, wide-eyed.

"WHAT DID YOU BREAK!?" The sudden booming sound of Jin's yell from the bathroom made the both of them scatter.

"Abort mission!" Jungkook yelled as they both ran to Jennie's room, with him quickly shutting the door. "Pretend we're sleep!" He quickly opened up the covers as she got in. He follows suit and they shuffle around before closing their eyes.

They were under the covers together with her head against his chest. She could feel his heart beating just as fast as hers. They really wanted to avoid Jin's lecture.

"WHO BROKE THE LAMP!?" Jin yelled while Jennie tried to muffle her laughs. Jin was really funny when he freaked out.

"Shh." Jungkook puts his index finger to his mouth, grinning in amusement, himself. 

Barging into Jen's bedroom, Jin looked around, in his towel. "JEON JUNGKOOK! JENNIFER!" he grabbed the covers and pulled them away. "Wh-oh. They're sleeping. NAMJOON!" He turned around and walked into the living room. "I told you to leave the stuff alone! Why did you break the lamp!?"

"What the hell?! I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING! I JUST GOT IN THE DOOR!" Namjoon yelled back, confused.

Jen and Jungkook laughed at the situation they were in. They make a good team when it comes to stuff like this. Jen was looking forward to what was to come, next time.

The Bangtan Gal Chapter 11- We're Proud Of You

Chapter Summary: Jin helps Jennie when she has an unexpected period. Jennie has another annual event that she created and decides to just go alone without letting BTS know. Little does she know, she can't hide things from her boys and they'll always be there for her.

Words:  3,000+

----

Hissing in pain as a sharp cramp wakes her up, Jennie groans and slowly sits her, clenching her stomach.

"What the heck...?" She grumbled. Grabbing her phone, she read that it was Saturday, a little after 9:00 am. Throwing the covers off of her, she gasps in shock.

"Oh no..." She said in a tight voice, getting butterflies in her stomach.

Blood was stained on her bed sheets and so were her pajama pants. Quickly getting out of bed, she paced around, taking the scarf off her head that she slept with.

"What am I gonna do-what am I gonna do-what am I gonna do!?" She cried out in a hushed tone. 

She could not let the guys see her, like this. What would they think? Would they be weirded out? She had to clean this up fast. Hopefully, none of them were awake, yet.

Taking the bed sheets off her bed, she quietly walks out of her room, looking around for any of the members. When the coast was clear, she made her way to the laundry room. 

"Clean the sheets, then take a shower. Simple. They'll never notice." She sighed, opening up the washer.

"Is everything okay, sweetheart?"

A deep voice asked behind her. The voice made her flinch, dropping her bloody bed sheets. Slowly turning around, nervously, she looks at the person anxiously.

Of all people...it was Jin. Her whole body was starting to heat up. She really wanted to crawl into a hole, now. Was he going to scold her?

"J-Jin! What are you doing up so early?" She stammered.

"I was going to cook breakfast but heard something in the laundry room." He responded, looking down at the bed sheets curiously. He walked up to the sheets and picked them up. "Unexpected period?"

"Oh my God, this is so embarrassing...I'm sorry." She facepalmed but got a laugh from him.

"Don't be. Let me help you. Take a shower and get dressed. We'll go to the store so we can buy you the things you need."

"Wait, Seriously?" She looked at him, astonished. "You aren't weirded out?"

Smiling warmly, he shook his head. "Not at all! Now go shower! We gotta buy you things to help you with your period."

Sighing out of relief, she obeys, grateful to him. "Thank you so much, Jin."

Jin was so kind to her and so understanding.

After showering and getting dressed, placing some tissue paper to aid the bleeding temporarily, and eating breakfast, the two of them head to the supermarket. With Jennie pushing the cart, following a happy Jin around the store, and getting ingredients, they finally come across the pads.

"You don't feel embarrassed to be buying me pads?" She asked, placing two packs in the cart.

"Not in the slightest. I've dealt with this, before. Do you want any chocolate? Other snacks? To help?"

"Yes, please!"

After putting all the snacks she thought would help her with her period, Jin continues going through the aisles until the stack of magazines catches his eye. Smiling, he grabbed one magazine in particular and turned to Jen. 

"Did you see this, yet? You look great."

"Holy crap, I didn't think it would be out, so soon!" She grabbed the magazine to the page where she had a small interview for High Cut Magazine.

'Meet Miss Bangtan! The Bulletproof Girl Scout, Jennie!'

The picture had her jumping in midair with her trademark grin and arms up in the air, looking cute.

'Who Is Miss Bangtan?' Was another caption on the page.

The article talked about her being an African American female in a male K-Pop group in America and how she has been talked about even before BTS' debut. There were even sections of her interview with High Cut magazine.

They asked her 'What do you hope to accomplish here as a foreigner in South Korea?' and she responded with, 'To break all the boundaries while having a successful career, here. Break records with BTS and make new friends. I'm super excited with what's to come in my journey with BigHit Entertainment.'

She had been getting talked about more. Good and bad. Some thought it was a bad idea to put a girl from America in BTS, but once she proved her Korean skills, and how serious she was, her critics have been having a hard time. She hopes to continue to grow with BTS and prove the doubters wrong.

-----

On October 13th, in the practice room, with the lights off and candles lit on the cake that Jennie held, BTS surprised Jimin on his 19th birthday, singing Happy Birthday to him. He was overwhelmed with joy as he laughed. Once he blew out the candles, he was met with loud cheers and claps.

"Hahah, jeesh, don't hurt him!" Jennie laughed when the guys started smacking him on the back, along with Suga yelling for Jimin to cry.

"Faster cry! You have to cry!" J-Hope yelled while V grabbed Jimin from behind, yelling at him to get down on the floor.

"Wait! The chicken!" Jennie warned with a giggle. "The food!"

"Hey, the chicken! Chicken, chicken!" J-Hope grabbed the bag of chicken that was held by Jimin. "I'll return you, your chicken later."

"Don't forget about your cake!" Jennie presented it to him with both of her hands. It brought joy to her heart seeing the guys so happy, like this.

"Ah, it's pretty! Thank you." He happily said, holding the cake in one hand and covering his mouth with his other. "Ah, it's my bare face."

Glancing at him like he was insane, she playfully snapped at him. "Boy! If you don't hush! Your bare face is fine! Embrace that naturalness." She gave him a birthday smack on the back while he responded with giggles.

After taking out the candles on the cake, Jennie and the rest of the guys smear icing on Jimin's face before taking a group birthday photo with him.

---

On October 15th, Jennie told Bang PD about the traditional Singing Exhibit she had back in America and wanted to continue the tradition here in South Korea. Liking the idea, he allowed her to work on the project and planned to have 'Avid Vocals' in a small venue in Seoul. Once the information was out about it, ARMYs quickly planned on going, shocking her the most. She still wasn't used to the overwhelming support from the fans.

But having bad memories of her old group not going, she had asked Bang PD to keep 'Avid Vocals' from the rest of the BTS members since she didn't want to bother them. They would probably want to work on their dancing anyway. 

When it was October 18th, it was time for the free event. She stood up on the stage, looking around at how many people had come. Even nonfans of BTS came along just for the simple fact of singing. It filled her heart with joy.

"Wow! So many people! Hello!" She greeted. "Thank you so much for coming! This is the second annual Avid Vocals. I had the first one back in America, and it's an event where we come together to happily sing and have a great time. Whenever you can sing good or bad, just being here because you like to sing, is more than enough as we all support each other."

She was met with a big applause as she smiled, feeling her cheeks heat up. She didn't think over 170 people would show up. "I shall keep this short and simple. If you want to sing, there's a signup sheet, right here at the front. Pick any song, we'll get the instrumental, and that's that! Let's get this show on the road! Please enjoy the event!" She announced with even louder cheers. 

Once she got off the stage, performances started in 30 minutes. She took the time to meet and greet with some fans. Security guards had to make them form a line and give her some breathing space. She could hear fans cheering her name, and yelling that they loved her. It was touching. While taking autographs and pictures, she also had deep conversations with people about singing. Asking questions like, 'Why do you like to sing?' and 'Why do you like to listen to others sing?'

Hopefully, Bang PD will let her do this every year because this event seems to be going successfully.

There were a lot of Korean songs that Jennie was not so aware of when she heard people perform. She made mental notes to research and listen more to Korean music for future reference. An hour into the event, it was finally her turn. She grabs the guitar that she borrowed from Big Hit and sits on a stool, on the stage.

"I'm going to sing one of my favorite songs from America. I hope you all enjoy." She began strumming, playing the first few notes of She Will Be Loved by Maroon 5.

In addition to the first notes that she played, the crowd immediately knew what the song was and started cheering. Covering the song in a soft, gentle but strong voice, she happily sang her heart out. After she was done, the audience cheered loudly, but familiar voices caught her attention.

"JENNIE~!"

"YEAH! GO JENNIE!"

"WOO HOO!"

"GO ENNIE~"

"THAT'S MY GIRL!"

"WAHHH SHE'S SO GOOD~"

The sudden obnoxious whoops and cheers of BTS made her widen her eyes. Looking ahead, she could see them at the back, goofing all.

"No way..." She murmured to herself, in disbelief.

Jungkook's bunny smile...

Yoongi's gummy smile...

Hobi's goofy dancing...

Jimin's eye smile...

Tae's boxy grin...

Namjoon and Jin's weird yet unique dance moves...

Were they here, right now?

"G...guys?" She suddenly said on the mic, standing up. 

Some people started to turn around to see the members of BTS at the back. ARMYs quickly make their way to them while security guards manage to keep things safe and simple.

How the heck did they know she would be here?

Getting off stage and heading to the back, she waits for them backstage. Before she knew it, they finally found her.

"Ahhh how come you didn't tell us about this?" Namjoon playfully scolded.

"You did great!" Tae smiled, patting her head.

"Yeah. Nicely done. I liked your singing." Yoongi mentioned.

"Me too! Love the guitar playing!" Jungkook beamed.

"Jennie, you're really good at the guitar. We should play sometime!" Jin offered

J-Hope screamed, jumping up and down. "JENNIE~ How dare you not tell us! That was amazing!"

"YEAH! Why didn't you tell us!?" Jimin added.

Looking down with guilt, she sighed. "I...I thought you guys wouldn't be interested." She admitted

"Hey." Namjoon placed a hand on her shoulder as she raised her head, to look at him in the eyes. He smiled. "That's not true. It won't be true and it never will be true. We're a group, we stick together. We always support each other. You are the Bangtan Girl. You are a part of BTS, just like the rest of us. You know that. We're proud of you, Jennie."

Hot tears of joy formed in her eyes. Before she knew it, they were streaming down her face as she sniffed and turned away.

Jimin started laughing. "Ahhh she's crying!"

"YAH! Namjoon what was that!?" Tae playfully scolded.

"You made her cry! How dare you!?" Jin hit him.

"I-I didn't mean to! Oh my god, Jennie, I'm sorry!" Namjoon started stumbling over his words, trying to make her stop crying. "I'm sorry!"

But before he knew it, she wrapped her arms around his waist, giving him a big hug. "Thank you. Thank you, guys."

"Awwwweeeee." Jimin and Tae cooed, enjoying the cute scene in front of them.

Chuckling, Namjoon hugged her back. "Don't mention it,"

"AHHHH! GROUP HUG~" J-Hope yelled, happily wrapping his arms around the both of them.

"I wanna hug too!" Tae joined in, as the others followed suit.

"G-guys you're squishing me." Jennie groaned out.

"Embrace the love!" Tae giggled before they all let go while laughing.

Jin wiped the tears from her eyes and handed her a tissue. "Make sure to tell us when the next one is so we can come and support you. We may even sing ourselves."

"How'd you know I'd be here, anyway?" She looked on curiously.

"Bang PD told us!" Jungkook answered.

"Insane."

"I also saw fans tweeting, about it." J-Hope added. "And then I asked him, so then he told us."

"I'm glad he did. You guys are the best."

It was a special day for BTS as they were seated on stage for the ARMYs in a fan meeting. They were celebrating their 100 days and it was time to read their personal letters to the ARMYs. After some funny banter and sad music in the background to set the mood, as well as the dimmed lights, Rap Monster goes first to read his letter. Jennie, seated in between Suga and Jin, eagerly listens to his heartfelt letter.

"I am Rap Monster. When I look at ARMYs, these thoughts come up. I wonder if I've ever supported and cheered on someone so passionately. Looking back, I realized I used to live only caring for myself and I find that really embarrassing. Back then, expressing my feelings for another person was doing something I wouldn't even think about doing. I knew one way or another we would get hate, but meeting our ARMYs truly changed and is still changing my outlook on the world and my life. I learn so many things from you all every day. The thing that I'm most scared of is disappointing you all. It's because like I always say, without you all, I don't exist."

His words made everyone 'aw' as he let out a short chuckle. "ARMYs, there's a saying that if someone fulfills their dream, it becomes the dream of another. I want to be that kind of person. I want to be your dream. I think that's my role. Tomorrow will be better than today, and the day after that will be better than tomorrow. I, Rap Monster, will work towards being an artist and leader like that. I love you, all."

After everyone's applause, it was Suga's turn. "Hello, ARMYs. It's Suga. Thanks to our busy schedules, my body is always tired but meeting the ARMYs who cheer for us always gives me energy. ARMYs are the reason Bangtan exists. I'm not good at saying embarrassing things and I can't express my feelings easily but I trust that you all know how I feel. I love you, and thank you. ARMYs, I love you!"

When it was Jin's turn the ARMYs 'aw' when he started to tear up. 

"Truthfully, in the past, I never had much thought that this was enjoyable. When I think about it now, even while I was preparing to debut, I remember always wondering if this was really the right path for me and this prevented me from trying a lot of things. After meeting our ARMYs, I'm thankful because I'm smiling a lot more and have become a more positive person. I'll work hard from now on to make you all smile and show a better side of myself. Thank you."

Once Jin finished, it was J-Hope's turn to read his letter. "As a trainee, I always wondered when I'd be able to stand on stage and how it'd feel to hear the loud cheers from the people who genuinely like and support me. My fantasy became a reality and now I'm here, making music, receiving love from fans and working hard on promotions." He read.

"Truthfully, I can't believe it. I loved dancing so much, I didn't study and often left the house early in the morning to practice. After suffering for a long time, I finally got the chance to go to Seoul. The people who were the happiest for me were my parents. At that moment, my dad's smile..." He trailed off, tearing up while he was hit with a chorus of aws. Before everyone knew it, everyone started tearing up.

Jennie managed to fight back the tears, blinking quickly. "Ah, J-Hope, lower the intensity a bit and try reading it, again!" Suga spoke up on the mic, earning a few laughs to lighten up the mood.

After J-Hope pulled himself together, he continued reading. "More than anything, our ARMYs who love us, thanks to you all, I'm really, really thankful. To be honest, each day is tiring and difficult but I believe that the sole reason I can make it through is because of our ARMYs. I want to say thank you for always coming to cheer for us. Just like our lyrics, I want Bangtan to leave an imprint on the world. Our ARMYs, I love you." He smiled and wiped his tears with a tissue.

Before Jennie knew it, it was her turn as she looked down at her paper, taking a deep breath. "Ah...actually, I'm going to read from the heart." She set the paper down and looked up at the ARMYs as they whoa and cheered.

"Okay, Smartie. Trying to show off, I see." Suga said on his mic, as everyone laughed.

She let out a short, low chuckle before getting serious, and looking back at the crowd. "It's...hard for me to express my emotions. I try to keep them to myself and not really get too emotional, but when it comes to you all, I can't help but express my love and appreciation for how much support you've given me. My family..." She breathed out shakily and closed her eyes.

ARMYs aw and some yell, "We love you, Jennie~" and "Don't cry~ It's okay!"

"I'm so thankful for them for allowing me to do this..." She exhaled again and paused, looking down. "Sorry. This was much better in my head."

"You all right, smartie? Do you need some smarties?" Suga asked while everyone started to giggle.

"Ah, that would be great, actually." She turned to him.

"I brought them, just in case. Free of charge." He took one out of his pocket and handed it to her.

"Wow! This is the nicest he's been to me all day." She joked and popped one in her mouth. "Getting back on track, I just want to say that...my family has made a lot of sacrifices for me and I'm happy that they allowed me to be here today. Although I was only a trainee for a very short amount of time, I hope to inspire people with my singing and dancing."

"To be honest, not a lot of Americans can say that they were able to be a part of a K-Pop group, and I'm grateful that you all have given me the chance to prove how passionate I am about this opportunity." she continued. 

She'll never take this for granted. This has been such an amazing experience so far.

"Thank you for welcoming me with open arms, and allowing me to show you my strengths and weaknesses while in this awesome group. I will continue to stay positive and I hope you look forward to watching me grow. I will continue to work hard with BTS and get better every time I perform. Although I still have a lot to learn here in South Korea, I hope that you continue to support me through my accomplishments and struggles. I love you, all." The corners of her lips curled up into a bright smile as she bowed while everyone happily applauded and cheered for her.

"Hello, ARMYs. I'm the member in charge of attractiveness in the team, Jimin." He joked. "Maybe it's because we're still rookies but the promotions for our second album seem to be flying by so quickly. You all probably don't know this but as a trainee, I really didn't know if I'd ever get to debut. My training period was only a year and was one of the shortest out of all the members but..." He trailed off and covered his face with his letter.

"Jimin-ssi...yes. I...I don't know what to say to comfort you..." Suga spoke up to him while everyone laughed once again.

Pulling himself together, Jimin continued. "Really, I cried a lot, was exhausted and thought about giving up frequently. But after having debuted like this-ah, I'm sorry." His voice got shaky as he teared up.

"Please wait." Suga asked the ARMYs.

"Don't cry!" Jin added.

"Aw, Jimin..." Jennie looked on with a sad expression.

Pulling himself together again, Jimin spoke up, again. "It's so fun, amazing and dream-like that I can sing, dance, pose and act silly in front of you all. As the days pass by, I want to develop and show you all a better side of me. ARMYs, I hope for you to always be by our sides and watch us grow. To the ARMYs who love Bangtan and I, I love you all! Thank you!"

After the cheers, V was next. "Hello, how are you, all? I'm V from Bangtan, the group that has already reached their 100th day since debut. The fact that I'm a singer now, I still can't believe it. Everything is still fascinating and the fact that I can speak like this in front of our fans is exciting, difficult and makes me feel so many different emotions. There are still things that I don't know and are new to me but I'll work hard to improve and hope to become a Bangtan that ARMYs can be proud of. Our ARMYs, I love you." He smiled

"Jungkook, are you crying? Okay, the last member is Jungkook!" J-Hope announced

"Hello, I'm Jungkook. I try hard to tweet, post on the fan cafe, and write letters, but it's harder than I thought. To bare someone your honest self and true emotions, that's something I find really difficult to do. Having promoted up till now, I developed a small but big goal. I want to become a singer that can touch people with his voice and also to become such a singer that people can, without hesitating, proudly and being not embarrassed at all to say "I'm a fan of BTS!". You are all such an important existence to us, so I feel really upset when you say that you are sorry. I hope that we can be thankful for each other. I believe that as time goes on, we will continue to make memories together and will even be able to talk to each other simply by making eye contact. ARMYs, I really love you, all. Thank you."

After Jungkook's letter, J-Hope began to speak. "And like this, we will be wrapping up Bangtan Diary Ch. 1, Autumn. It was really...really...really touching. How was it? How about we get everyone to talk about how they felt?"

Jin went first. "First of all, I want to say that I'm sorry because I think that I'm the one who made the mood like this." He laughed. "I also want to say that every single thing our ARMYs say to us poses as a great strength. We'll be a Bangtan that will never disappoint you so please continue watching over us! Thank you!" He bowed.

"I love you and thank you." Jungkook said before he covered his face with his letter and ended up crying. Everyone aw'ed while Jennie started feeling her eyes sting as she fought back the tears.

"Ya'll really gon' make me ruin my makeup, today, huh?" She fanned herself as she tried to get rid of the developing tears in her eyes. Everyone ends up laughing at her comment while she cracks a smile herself. Her comment lightened up the mood as Jungkook pulled himself together.

"I always try to show that I love you all and am thankful but it's still extremely difficult," Jungkook mentioned. "But now I've managed to show a little bit of how I feel here, so...I love you." He wiped his tears with a tissue.

"Really while getting to be here like this, I think I've realized what kind of person I am and have to become." Rap Monster said. "ARMYs, we're really thankful that you exist. We'll work really, really hard. Thank you! Up till now, this was Bangtan." He stood up with the rest of the members.

"2,3!"

"Thank you!" The members of BTS bow.
