Star Illusion | ATEEZ Pirate AU

Chapter 2 - First encounter

I'm being held up by a scary looking pirate as the pirates notice me, an uninvited guest on their ship. Scanning the crowd, they all look intimidating. I gulp nervously at the sudden attention.

Then I see him, standing in the front of the crowd.

The perfect body proportions are covered in pirate costumes. His sharp and flawless features make me fangirl inside my mind. His hair is as dark as starless night. His side bangs cover left eyes while the right side is undercut hairstyle revealing a sharp piercing eye. And that eye is staring at me coldly.

His glare is scary but this is him. The man that I always want to meet in real life.

Seonghwa

Oh my god! It's Seonghwa!!!!

Am I really transmigrating into an Ateez fiction?! I can't grasp the idea yet but Seonghwa is literally standing before me.

Unintentionally, I let out an ugly squawk sound.

I quickly shut my mouth.

"She's scared," Someone chuckles in the back but that person is very wrong. Because I'm so happy right now.

"What's the meaning of this? I ordered you to get that girl with a mermaid tear necklace but you come back with an extra." He turns to look at his crewmates. Anger hinting in his voice.

"We follow your order, quartermaster," A man speaks up, "But we didn't know she followed us onto the ship."

Seonghwa's face turns into scowl when listening to the man's explanation.

"I'll deal with you later." He glares at his crews and me.

He then turns to order other crews, "Gunners take down those ships."

Several men respond back with Aye.

After that loud bloom of cannon firing at the ship that I was on a minute ago and the other pirate ship. The other ships fire back but they're no match to Ateez.

My ears have gone deaf for minutes.

Ateez's characters in this faction are truly merciless.

I watch the 2 sinking ships and pray for all characters that are being sacrificed for the sake of story. If I were still in that ship, I would have been dead. My heart knots at the thought of Lily.
This is the fate of a side character, you'll be missed Lily.

Then the quartermaster or Seonghwa strides toward 'Y/N' who is held by a giant pirate.

She's crying and shaking badly but she still manages to look gorgeous.

Well, she's the main protagonist of the story, of course, It makes sense that she looks perfect all the time.

"Let's get into business, shall we?" Seonghwa smiles but it doesn't reach his eyes.

The girl recoils back in fear, avoiding looking at Seonghwa.

"Don't be scared, Miss. We won't hurt you if you give us what we want." He says, a smile from before turns into sinister smirk.

The girl whimpers at his threat.

In this story, 'Y/N' and Ateez don't get along in the beginning but as time passes they'll warm up to each other and fall in love.

But in the first few chapters, the hatred between them is really intense.

Especially the first encounter I'm witnessing right now.

I watch the scene unfold in front of me. Too bad there's no popcorn.

"Now, tell me where is the map?" Seonghwa gets straight to the point.
