Fractured Obsession

Chapter 1

[Scene 1: The City of ECLIPSE]
The world isn't dead. But it's not alive either. Eclipse, a city draped in neon and decay, thrives in the space between—where human souls can be extracted, sold, and erased. Where the rich own eternity, and the poor sell their bodies for a second chance. Love is outlawed. Emotions are a commodity. And somewhere in this void, two souls are about to collide.

Eclipse has a new ghost
Yoongi
Yoongi
Define "ghost."
Unknown1
Unknown1
Unregistered entity. No digital footprint. No records. Nothing.

Another glitch in the system? Seen this before. Just a lost memory fragment.

Not this time. This one is breathing

…You’re saying a real person doesn’t exist?

No. I’m saying he shouldn’t exist
Jungkook

Name?

They're calling him "V"
[Scene 2: A Chance Encounter]
(The rain never really stops in Eclipse. It only shifts—falling in streaks of cold neon light, bathing the streets in a haunting glow. In a back alley, lined with the smell of rusted metal and burning circuits, a man moves like he belongs nowhere and everywhere at once.)
Jungkook (typing...)
Jungkook
Jungkook
Who are you?
(V) (typing…)
v
v
You don’t want to know
Jungkook
Jungkook
I think I do.
v
v
Then you’re already doomed
(Jungkook shouldn't care. He doesn’t chase ghosts. He erases them. But something about the way Taehyung moves, the way his presence disrupts the very code of the city, tells him this is no ordinary encounter. It’s a glitch in the system. A dangerous one.)
And Jungkook has never been able to resist a broken thing.

Chapter 2: Glitches in the System

[Private Chat: Jungkook & V]
Jungkook
Jungkook
You shouldn’t exist.
v
v
And yet, here I am.
Jungkook
Jungkook
Tell me who you are.
v
v
Delete me.
Jungkook
Jungkook
Not happening
v
v
Then you’re already in too deep.
(Message deleted by V.)
Eclipse thrives in shadows, and Jungkook has always known how to navigate them.
A cyber-hunter like him doesn’t chase ghosts. He erases them. His job is simple: track down anomalies, extract their code, and wipe them from existence. No traces. No memories. No mistakes.
But V isn’t just an anomaly—he’s a fracture in reality.
Jungkook leans against the cold steel of a rooftop railing, eyes scanning the streets below. Rain distorts the neon lights into eerie reflections, making the city look like it’s glitching. A perfect illusion.
Just like V.
And then—he feels it.
A breath against his ear.
A presence behind him that wasn’t there before.
Jungkook’s Apartment – 3:42 AM
(He doesn’t know how V got in. The doors were locked. The system was armed. But none of that seems to matter now, because V is here—too close, too real, too much.)
Jungkook exhales, but it barely steadies him. The room is dark except for the neon bleed from the city outside, casting shifting patterns on V’s skin.
“You’re sloppy,” V murmurs. “A hunter who lets ghosts slip through his fingers.”
Jungkook moves before he thinks—gripping V’s wrist, twisting, slamming him against the wall. But V doesn’t resist. He lets Jungkook press against him, lets the tension coil thick between them, lets Jungkook feel the impossible heat of him.
v
v
You like touching things you don’t understand?
(His voice is silk over steel, teasing, testing. His breath ghosts against Jungkook’s jaw—close enough to taste.)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(gritted) You hacked my system.
v
v
You let me
(A slow, dangerous smirk curves on V’s lips. Jungkook’s fingers twitch. He should put distance between them. Should end this.)
(Instead—)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(low, rough) Tell me… what are you?
(V tilts his chin just enough to be an invitation. Just enough for Jungkook to feel the phantom of his breath on his lips.)
v
v
Something you should stay far away from
(But neither of them move.)
And in the silence, the air crackles—a pull, a glitch, a warning Jungkook knows he’ll ignore.)
(Because he doesn’t just want to understand V.)
(He wants to consume him.)
(Obsession always starts like this—quiet, insidious, inevitable.) (And Jungkook is already falling.)

Chapter 3 : Fatal Proximity

[Private Chat: Jungkook & V]
Jungkook
Jungkook
You broke into my apartment.
v
v
You didn’t stop me
Jungkook
Jungkook
Maybe I should have.
v
v
But you won’t.
Jungkook
Jungkook
Why do I feel like you already know everything about me?
v
v
Because I do.
(Message deleted by V.)
[Live Chat Activated – Jungkook’s Apartment]
(A glitch in the system. A breath too close. A presence behind him that wasn’t there a second ago.)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(breathing heavy) You’re playing a dangerous game.
v
v
Am I?
(Jungkook can feel him—heat pressing into his back, the ghost of lips near his ear. He clenches his fists, jaw tight. Every instinct tells him to push V away.)
(But his body says otherwise.)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(gritted) You shouldn’t be here.
v
v
And yet, here I am.
(A pause. The air between them crackles—thick, suffocating. Jungkook swears V isn’t just standing there. He’s pulling him in.)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(low) Tell me why you’re here.
v
v
You already know.
Jungkook
Jungkook
Say it.
(Silence. Then—lips grazing his jaw, barely there. A tease. A taunt.)
v
v
You want me here.
(*Jungkook’s breath stutters. His control *fractures.**)
(*V hums, stepping closer, pressing their bodies together—slow, deliberate. Jungkook’s back meets the wall, and V is right there, trapping him without touching him fully. Letting the anticipation *simmer.**)
v
v
I know you won’t stop me.
(Jungkook’s hands snap up—gripping V’s waist, pulling him flush against him. Hard. A warning. Or maybe a mistake.)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(growling) You sure about that?
v
v
You like control.
(V’s fingers trace Jungkook’s chest, nails scraping lightly over his shirt, stopping just below his collarbone. Pressing. Teasing. His other hand drags down Jungkook’s side, fingertips barely touching, sending heat pooling low in his stomach.)
Jungkook
Jungkook
(sharp inhale)
v
v
You like this
(Jungkook’s pulse pounds. His grip tightens. He could shove V away. He should shove V away. But—)
(V leans in. His breath is warm against Jungkook’s lips. Their noses brush. A heartbeat away from crossing the line.)
v
v
I know exactly what kind of monster you are.
(Then—he’s gone.)
(The air turns cold. Jungkook blinks—V isn’t there anymore. Like he was never there at all.)
(Then—)
[New Notification: Unknown Sender]
"Come find me."
(Jungkook exhales sharply. His fingers twitch. His body is still burning from V’s touch, his mind still reeling from the way V played him, the way he left without giving him what he wanted—or taking what Jungkook would have given.)
(His system pings, the coordinates flashing in his vision.)
(Jungkook should walk away.)
(Instead, he follows.)
