"Do it." YG's command was resolute.

Blood sprayed across Rosie's face as Irene's arm jerked to the side.

Irene released Rosie's hair and Rosie slumped sideways back to the ground.


Irene grabbed at her side and spun around, the unstained weapon still in her hand.

Ji-hye turned her head as well.


"Freeze!"


Irene moved her hand away to look at her bleeding wound. She glowered at the two soldiers who had exited the stairwell some 100 meters away.

The tall and muscular gunman who had fired a single shot kept his rifle trained on Irene. Like all YG soldiers, their reflective helmets made it difficult to see their faces at a distance.

"Aren't you idiots supposed to say that before you shoot someone? Can't you see? I'm Irene, the leader of Red Velvet. We're taking care of the trash that you couldn't handle."


The other soldier was much smaller and wearing only a bulletproof vest slung over a civilian YG uniform. The soldier was holding a pistol, pointed at the ground.

Neither of them moved a muscle.

Irene looked at YG with her mouth twisted in an uncharacteristic pout, making it clear that she expected the CEO to handle the situation.

Instead of taking charge, Ji-hye stared at the soldiers with a strange look.

The smaller soldier spoke softly. "Good shot Harry." 

Rosie groaned weakly and began to try and push herself up.

Irene half turned, threatening with the blade.

"I said freeze!" Harry called out threateningly before Irene could grab Rosie.

"Weren't you listening-!" Irene began angrily.

"We heard it the first time, Miss Bae!" Sylvia yelled over her confidently. "Now step away from BLACKPINK and put your hands up!"


Lisa quietly opened her eyes at the yelling and shut them again as her vision spun in wild circles.


Irene again looked at YG in confusion and was shocked to see a terrifying smile had appeared on Ji-hye's face.

YG's jaw hung open and she let out a grating laugh.

"It is time for us to leave, Miss Bae." YG used Jisoo's head to help her stand upright. She took a deep halting breath.

More YGE soldiers, catching up to the commanders who had rushed ahead, began to exit the stairwell behind them.

"What is happening?" Irene asked in disbelief.

Jisoo tried to push YG away and rolled over to face Sylvia and Harry. "Shoot her now!"

Despite her apparent and sudden growth in confidence, fearful of one of her soldiers hitting the members of BLACKPINK, Sylvia hesitated.

Whether that hesitation mattered was unclear as before Sylvia could even open her mouth, Irene swiped her hands across her pockets and numerous grey pellets appeared in between her fingers.
