A/N Hi :)

I sat in class, my mind wandering as I looked at the whiteboard.
"Y/N, pay attention please." My teacher asked.
I blinked. "Sorry sir.." I said.

It had been around twenty-four hours since I received the call from Kara.
I haven't heard anything back since.

Hyunjin and his friends aren't here, but Jimin, Jungkook and Taehyung were.
That made Ji Woo happy.
I was still wary around Jungkook. His grip was strong, and that terrified me.
Plus, he had contact with Beomgyu and Taehyun.

Which meant he may be involved in Kara's disappearance.
Neither her nor Gabs were at school, which made me more worried by the minute.
As soon as the final bell rang, I stood up, rushing off.

"Hey, Y/N!" I heard a voice call.
I turned, seeing Jimin running up to me.
"Hm? Can I help you?" I asked.
"We've got a few classes together.. and you see, well.. I don't really get what we're doing in biology.. so could you maybe help me a bit??" Jimin asked, chucking awkwardly.

I just smiled gently, chucking ever-so-slightly. "Of course I can help. Do you want to go back to your house, mine, or the library?" I asked.

"Whichever you want to go.. although, my house is a mess at the moment. Blame Jungkook, he's so messy.. do you want to go back to your house?" Jimin said.

"Sure! The address is xxx-xxx. Follow me in your car." I said.

"Jungkook drove me here.." Jimin said, looking to the floor in embarrassment.
"Oh.. then you can just come in the car with me." I shrugged, walking to my car, placing my bag in the boot, Jimin doing so as well before he hopped into the passenger seat.
I got in the drivers seat, driving off quite quickly.

"I know this may be a sensitive topic, but you've got multiple personality disorder, right?" Jimin suddenly asked.
I glanced at him from the corner of my eye.

"Not multiple, just two. But yes. Why?" I questioned.

"I just wanted to know how that works.. can you remember what happens with the other personality?"

"Well, it depends. Sometimes I can, sometimes I can't. That's why you take medicine for it. So that I don't accidentally change. It could be bad for me, trust me." I laughed awkwardly.

"What caused it?" Jimin asked.

"The doctors reckon stress as a young child. See, I don't really remember where my parents went. Not much about my childhood. All I could remember was trying to get through high-school in Australia. I stayed there for awhile. Then I moved here when I was sixteen, and here we are." I explained, pulling into my driveway.

Ji Woo was already here, along with a more expensive car.

"That's Taehyungs car." Jimin pointed out.
"Oh gosh.. they better not be making out on the couch." I whined, hopping out the car and grabbing my bag.
Jimin grabbed his own, before closing the boot for me.

We walked inside, only for me to let out a groan.
"Ji Woo, go eat Taehyungs face off in your bedroom, please." I said, pulling Jimin away from the living room.

"Why, so you and Jimin are left alone..?" Ji Woo called out, her voice mocking.

"I'm helping him with work you dirty minded freak!" I yelled back, before clearing the kitchen table.

Jimin just chuckled, before getting his work out.
"So what are you not understanding?"
"Uhm.. mostly everything.. science isn't my strong point." He laughed awkwardly.
"That's okay, maths isn't mine. We've all got weak points. Now, let me help you through your worksheets." I said.

We sat there for around an hour or so, working while chatting about school, and other dilemmas in the world.
"Where were you this morning.. you didn't come until third period." I asked.
Jimin just glanced at me, sighing. "I had a doctors appointment. See, I do dancing as a hobby.. I'm decent at it, but I accidentally pulled a muscle in the wrong place, and it really hurts. It still does. So, I went there for medicine, and for a referral to a physiotherapist." Jimin shrugged.

"Where'd you pull?" I asked.
"My leg." He sighed sadly.
"That must suck." I said, before checking the time.
"Do you want to stay for dinner? Me and Ji Woo always have leftovers, so you're welcome to." I asked.
"What time is it?" Jimin asked.
"Around five o'clock." I shrugged.
Jimin stood up. "Oh.. I think I've got to go. Namjoon hyung expects me back by 5:30. It's just business things. I help him out a bit. So does Taehyung. Can you.. go get him? I don't know what him and Ji Woo are doing." He said, hiding his face in embarrassment at the thought.

"I'll go get her, and Taehyung." I said, running up the stairs.
I knocked loudly on her door.
"JI WOO! JIMIN AND TAEHYUNG HAVE TO GO, SO STOP YOUR MAKE OUT SESSION BEFORE I BREAK THE DOOR DOWN!" I yelled.
Ji Woo opened the door quite quickly, looking at me with narrowed eyes.
"We we're doing homework, you dirty minded freak." She smirked.
"Now you're using my own insults against me." I hissed.
Taehyung stood up from her desk. "Oh shit.. sorry Ji, Namjoon hyung expects me back soon. I'll see you tomorrow." He said, kissing her on the forehead as he headed downstairs, bag in hand.

Jimin stood at the door awkwardly as I ran down.
"Thank you so much for the help, Y/N! We'll stay for dinner next time, okay?" Jimin smiled.
"No problem! Our door is always open." I smiled back, giving him a small hug.
"Y/N and Jimin, sitting in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g." Ji Woo whispered to Taehyung, earning her a chuckle in response.
I scowled. "I heard that."
I then looked to Jimin quickly. "By the way.. did Jungkook tell you what happened?? Something happened to Kara and I'm worried.."

Jimin stiffened, before relaxing. "Oh you mean with Taehyun and Beomgyu? Don't worry, we're getting it sorted. Us and Bang Chan, and the others. She's safe, just a bit injured. You heard the gun, didn't you?"

"Yeah.. when you find her, tell her to message me, okay? I'm worried sick." I smiled sadly.
Jimin nodded. "Of course. Alright I've really got to go. Bye!" He exclaimed, opening the door and heading out himself.
My smile dropped.

I didn't expect him to know so much. So she was safe? Well, he knew where she was.
If Kara was okay, why wasn't she at school?
Why wasn't Gabs responding my calls?
Why has their whole friend group gone quiet.
There's something going on here.

"Did you notice that Taehyung was limping?" Ji Woo said.
"What?" I asked, tilting my head.
"He was limping. He must have hurt his leg or something."
"Maybe he pulled a muscle like Jimin."
"Jimin wasn't limping." Ji Woo pointed out.
"He wasn't..?"

"If he pulled a muscle, he wouldn't put so much weight on his leg." Ji Woo said again.
"That's what he told me he did.." I whispered.
"Tae didn't tell me what happened. He wouldn't even let me touch his leg. It's a pain, but boys have their secrets, just like girls do, and everyone else." She shrugged.
"I suppose you're right."








BTS POV
"Did you really have to go hang around Y/N and Ji Woo's place? I don't really think it was necessary." Namjoon sighed.
"It was to ward off suspicion. She already knows that Jungkook knows Beomgyu and Taehyun. So might as well act like everything's okay." Jimin shrugged, grabbing a rice ball from the table.
"That's fair.. but you cut it close. The suns setting. Stray Kids will arrive soon." Yoongi pointed out.
"It won't happen again. But I had to see my girlfriend y'know." Taehyung whined.

"Is she really your girlfriend though?" JHope asked.
"Originally she wasn't, but she's quite an enjoyable person to be around." Taehyung responded.
The sun had almost finished setting once the inhabitants of BTS's manor had eaten.

Then the gunfire began, from Stray Kids and their accomplices.

"You boys know what to do." Namjoon said into a microphone, as eight hitman ran through the house, armed with multiple guns and knives.

This wasn't going to be an easy fight.







Kara rolled over, sluggish from sleep, only to see a figure pacing the room.

"Just who the hell are you?"
