It had been a week since Jisung had been kidnapped, and most of the members had congregated in the living room, their now typical hangout spot during their hideout.

Chan settled down in the living room in the afternoon, the other member's eyes flicking over his bare arms. "Something's up. We need to get more information from Lucifer."

Jeongin looked up. "I thought we were just asking for money?"

"We were before, but I realized something. Why was Jisung out by himself? Why didn't he try harder to escape?" Chan put a hand to his forehead. "He's supposed to be the best they have and he was cornered in ten minutes?"

"I dunno, looked like he was doing his best. And he was cornered seven to one." Jeongin said doubtfully, trying to cover his nerves. He needed a good cover story as to why Jisung fell into their hands so easily.

"True, true," Chan assented. "But I still want to know what he was doing."

"Why not just ask Jisung?"

"I doubt he knows anything, he's so new. Can you get in contact with one of the Lucifers to ask?"

"I doubt they'll give anything up." Jeongin mused. He would have to get in contact with Yeonjun or Soobin and tell them about Chan's suspicions.

The next morning, Jeongin called everyone into the dining room for a meeting, wiping his hands on his shorts under the table. He looked up from his tablet. "I have news," he announced as Minho walked in. "The Sons of Lucifer didn't give up any information about what they were doing. I even contacted Kevin and Eric last night, the leaders of the gang Venom, and they refused our offer of Jisung in return for their data and money." The others seemed unsurprised, either having already been told by Jeongin or just unsurprised by the dealings with these gangs.

"On the bright side, I'm glad Venom didn't agree. We would've been way in over our heads dealing with multiple gangs. Lucifer would've come after us for handing their precious child to those snakes," Changbin spit.

Minho sleepily slid over a bowl and grabbed the box of cereal on the table and shook some in. "What are we going to do?"

Jeongin glanced at Chan, who only shrugged in response. "The usual, I guess."

Milk glugged into the bowl as Minho's hand shook. With every other kidnapping victim they brought into their townhouse, they had to record video of them mildly torturing them. It wasn't even true torture, as the victims always knew they wouldn't be hurt at all, but the look of fear on their faces always made the whole situation so much worse.

None of the Vamps really cared about the fear of their victims, as it made the kidnapping seem more realistic and got them more deals settled their way.

"So who wants to do it?"

No one said anything immediately. The thrill of pretending to torture people had worn off after they all went through the process multiple times. But this time, Minho felt an urge to, his sadistic tendencies coming out.

He tried to make it look like he didn't want to by saying, "I'll do it if Hyunjin feeds him this morning."

"Why me?" 

"Because you haven't taken care of him at all, you lazy ass." [bruh I fvcking miss Hyunjin so much can jyp stop being a dick]

Hyunjin grumbled but assented, getting up and going to the kitchen to bring up leftovers.

"When are you going to do it?" Chan asked the cat-like boy.

"Probably later tonight, so the video looks scarier."
