[Your POV]
Everyone stared at the dark structure before us, black plumes of smoke pouring out from one window.

My eyes darted around my surroundings as I finally could see the outside world of whatever place I'd landed in.

The sky was a blanket of stormy midnight and in the short distance, a massive black city could be seen with impossibly massive towers rising up in the sky, some even disappearing into the sky it seemed. Eerie blue and indigo lights sprinkled the city.

The actual event of the explosion all seemed to blur in my mind in one confusing mess of heat and terror despite it occurring less than five minutes ago.

One minute Taehyung had just begun to set one corner of the board on fire, the next minute Jungkook began to yell something frantically, and then it was like a massive shockwave had sent me flying backwards followed by the loudest boom I'd ever heard.

By the time I'd begun to recover from the shock of the shockwave, a certain blue-haired demon had appeared and grabbed my hand to yank me out of the still burning room with the rest of the demons all scrambling for safety.

A certain blue-haired demon who was arguing with the other companions on how exactly to proceed and whose fault it was for causing such a "blessed event" at the moment.

"Do you know how much the lady at the insurance office is gonna kill me?" Namjoon demanded. "This'll be the eighth time this month I'm coming in!"

"Yeah! And who's fault was it for the broken refrigerator door and setting the microwave on fire because he tried to warm a burrito when it was still in the tin foil?" Jimin fired back.

Namjoon, obviously offended, had to take a few moments to find his voice. "Well... besides the point, the lady is gonna kill me!"

"We're all about to be dead meat," Jin cut in, lowering what looked to be a phone (demons had iPhones??) "Yoongi is coming."

As if in a scene of a horror movie where a character announced the dreaded villain was approaching, silence fell among the group of bright-haired soot-covered demons.

In fact all of our clothes were streaked with black ash and some of their shirts were practically tattered.

"I mean... he won't be too mad right?" Jungkook broke the silence with a small squeak. "It's just a human and a half-exploded house."

Jin scowled at Jungkook, a vein popping out in his neck. "We interrupted his cuddle time with Hoseok."

"Oh Satan take my soul already!" Taehyung wailed in despair.

"He doesn't know about the human though," Jungkook leaned forward in desperate hope. "We have time before he comes right? Let's hide Y/N before he comes. He'll never know then!"

"Yeah!" Taehyung pounced on the idea immediately. "For now she can hide in those rose bushes over back."

"Are you crazy?" I yelped aloud, getting the demons' attention. "I'm literally right here and I'm not jumping in a freaking rose bush."

"Please cooperate with us, human," now Taehyung pleaded, earnestly. "If Yoongi hyung finds out who knows what he'll do."

"Ah," a new, husky and deep voice pitted behind the five beings before me. "But Yoongi hyung already has found out."

The demons immediately split apart from each other and whirled around, revealing a shorter man behind them with bright purple hair and matching violet eyes.

At the moment, those pair of eyes was glittering like dangerous amethysts.

"Y-Yoongi hyung," someone almost whimpered.

Behind this newcomer, whom I assume was the infamous Yoongi, was a taller man with orange hair.

Both were just as handsome as the other demons.

"I get a call from Jin hyung saying that some bird-brains exploded the house, and I come back to find indeed half our home blasted off the face of this dimension as well as a human." Yoongi growled, feral.

"I mean, a couple broken windows and a small fire that's already dying out doesn't really count as blasting the house off the face of this-" Jin began nervously.

"You!" The purple-haired demon finally turned to look at me and for the barest of seconds he couldn't seem to conceal what I assumed was shock at his first sight at me. "Why the blessing heck are you here?"

My mind blanked at the genuine fury in the little-guy-who-was-a-solid-five-inches-taller-than-me's eyes.

"B-because some b-bird-brains summoned me?" I stammered.

The violet eyes searing into mine darkened to almost obsidian.

"Alright," he took a few heaving deep breaths, obviously trying to reign in his emotions. "Well, we can just send her back then, right?"

"Um," Jungkook twisted the hem of his half burned grey shirt.

I was pretty sure it had been white before the explosion.

"So we, uh, originally summoned her accidentally through an Ouija board. And we thought we could send her back by burning the thing..." Jungkook trailed off as Yoongi set the youngster with a dark look.

"And?" Yoongi pressed.

"Um, it turns out we needed the Ouija board to send her back with this reversal spell thingy," Jungkook cleared his throat, shooting Taehyung a look. "That's why I'd been yelling at the last minute."

There was a few moments of silence as realization sunk in with everyone.

"The Ouija board is destroyed." Yoongi stated flatly. It wasn't a question.

"Hang on," fear and a feeling almost like claustrophobia thrummed through me. "Does... that mean I'm stuck in whatever place this is?"

Jungkook hung his head as Taehyung swallowed hard. Jin and Namjoon averted their gazes from mine and the orange-hair seemed to be finding his fingers extremely interesting.

The only ones who met my gazes were Yoongi and Jimin.

"All of you are nothing but blessings from heaven!" Yoongi finally yelled at the companions.

"You really shouldn't bless, Yoongi," Namjoon muttered.

"You numbskulls know what happens if the news that a human is in Itzborough reaches the wrong ears!" Yoongi yelled, causing me as well as the other members to flinch.

"Its-boar-what?" My voice was still an octave higher than usual in my fear and shock.

"Itzborough," Jungkook piped up quietly. "That is what we call this place. This dimension. Home of demons."

But what about hell...?

"You know what this means," the orange-hair said in a low voice.

"I'm stuck in the Home of demons?" I guessed in a strained, tight voice.

"No one else can know a human is in Itzborough," Namjoon pressed on. "So until we find a different way to get her back to her world, she'll need to be supervised at all times."

Pause.

"So... like a babysitter?" I asked; things were getting worse and worse.

"Yes," Namjoon nodded curtly. "A babysitter."

"Oh heck nah, I won't be tied down like that," I crossed my arms defiantly.

"So naive," Yoongi exhaled heavily. "Well, one of you twerps are going to do the honors. Come on, Hoseok, let's go inside and see how much damage there is."

The shorter purple-haired man stalked off towards the house trailed by the orange-haired who had just enough time to shoot me an almost sympathetic, apologetic look at me over his shoulder.

I bit my lip a little as the original five demons stood before me, all making awkward eye contact or averting their gazes altogether.

"I got a 4.9% on the Unit test over Earth and humans," Jungkook finally burst out. "So obviously I can't take care of the human."

"I have to go to school," Taehyung joined Jungkook's excuses. "You know, we're learning about photosyntaxes. Very interesting."

"It's photosynthesis Taehyung," Namjoon pursed his lips a little. "I can't do it since I have to go talk to the insurance lady and, um, work. Yeah, can't miss work."

"I'll go with you to the insurance office," Jin jumped in. "Can't have you breaking the front door as you enter am I right Joon?" The wide-shouldered demon chuckled nervously.

Now everyone turned to the blue-haired demon who had not said anything yet.

He and I exchanged horrified looks.

Oh no.

"Jiminie!" Jin abruptly called in a sing song voice.

"NO!" Both Jimin and I yelled before the older could continue.

"Unlike Jungkook over there, I value education!" Desperation laced through Jimin's voice.

"You're the top in your class though and, aside from Yoongi, you know the most about humans," Jin pressed. "You got a 99.2% on the last test right?"

"Yeah but... but..." Jimin continued to sputter.

"It's a match!" Jin crowed. "Y/N and Jimin, I pronounce thee Babysitter and babysittee!"
