"Everyone look!" Jake announced, "The one who has been killing all of your men is here! And he is clearly not one of ours!"

The gangs watched in pure loath, snarling and growling as Ni-ki dragged him to the centre. Sunoo did as Ni-ki wanted him to, not even hesitating to fall onto his knees in the centre of the room.

He would die, if Ni-ki asked him to.

"Now, watch one our real members kill him right here, in front of all you." Sunghoon voiced angelically with a graceful expression, his hand resting on Ni-ki's shoulder.

The entire room watched in anticipation, the light solely focusing on Ni-ki and Sunoo. The air had turned menacing, screaming for blood. Everything felt like a curse to Ni-ki.

"Go ahead." Jake said.

Ni-ki didn't gulp nor did he show any sign of being troubled. He simply held his knife to Sunoo's neck and spoke, "I know you want me to kill him, but what fun is it to just let him die so easily?"

Jay's clicked his tongue when he realised what Ni-ki was planning to do, "That slick bastard." He murmured under his breath, alerting Heeseung of what was happening.

Ni-ki was clever, he was impossibly sly. He had been trained and drilled to be a wonderful spy, so it was almost no surprise that he managed to pull such stunts. But the meaning behind these stunts was something that was not just blurted out randomly, Ni-ki had to be planning this for days.

"Watch me make him bleed here in front of all of you, and then later I will torture him on my own. Give this as a gift to us, the ones who suffered the most." Ni-ki convinced them all with a genuine expression, a hand on his heart.

How easily Ni-ki cornered them all.

By doing this in front of everyone, he convinced all that the Nidra was not their enemy. By asking them to let him kill Sunoo on his own, he made them believe that he hated Sunoo.

But all four of the Nidra knew that Ni-ki was never going to kill Kim Sunoo. To the others, Ni-ki was the spy that managed to betray the officer, a victim of the law enforcement groups. But to the Nidra, he was nothing more than a little weasel, trying to run away.

But what could they say right now? There was no way they could openly reveal Ni-ki's lies without getting themselves back into the hit list of countless groups.

Sunoo closed his eyes as Ni-ki dug the knife deep into his skin, crying tears of blood from all over his body. The room cheered on and on as he painted the cream floor into a darling red. His skin bore carving from Ni-ki's clever hands, his skin screamed as he felt himself lightheaded.

But Sunoo didn't care, this was Ni-ki after all.

He'd do anything for Ni-ki.

After a time period, whose length Sunoo couldn't decipher, he heard all the people in the room calm down and turn easily. He also heard Ni-ki's voice stating that he was leaving, and then, he could feel someone carry him.

Sunoo could barely speak in his current state and therefore resorted to making random noises from his throat. Ni-ki hushed him as he ran down the stairs as quickly as he could.

"Did you come here in a car?" He asked Sunoo, to which he answered in affirmative. "Then lead me there." Sunoo nodded and showed the direction with his blood soaked fingers.

Ni-ki dashed to the car and quickly opened it, placing Sunoo inside with utmost care. He ran to the driver's seat and blasted the engine in a hurry to leave.

He couldn't waste time, god knows when the Nidra will start chasing him.

"What are you doing?" Sunoo whispered, "Things I should have done long ago." Ni-ki stated bitterly. Then with a swift turn, he continued, "I'm leaving the Nidra, I'm done with that life anyway."

"Why?" Sunoo asked, "Are you okay with doing this?" Niki chuckled gravely at this, "It doesn't matter if I like it or not, I betrayed the Nidra to get you out, Jake would kick me out anyway."

'I did this for you' was hanging around in the air.

Sunoo smiled softly, "Okay, then. Come with me, I can take care of you. You can even attend college if you want." Ni-ki's breathing relaxed for a while and for the first time, he smiled truly at Sunoo.

But then, as if just on cue, he saw another car right behind them. It was the same vehicle he got into to came to this place, the one from which Jake was glaring at him

"They're here." Ni-ki muttered. Before he could turn away, the other car came running up behind them and collided into theirs, sending them down in a jerk.

"HOLD ON!" Ni-ki screamed as they slid down into the beach that ran parallel to the road. The car soon came to rest in a single piece, which was a blessing honestly.

Then Ni-ki held Sunoo's hand, "I'll face them now. I can't keep running." Sunoo nodded and closed his eyes, trying his level best not to die from the bleeding.

"And if I survive, you send me to college right?" He asked. "Of course." Sunoo answered coarsely.

Now Ni-ki definitely had to survive.
