[Chapter 26]

Gabs sat in the back of NCT's van nervously, gun in hand, rows of ammo in her belt.
Johnny sat next to her the whole time, giving her comforting smiles.
Gabs was worried something had happened to Kara. She was already injured, and BTS were evil. Who knows what they were doing to her.

"You can kill everyone you see if you want, it doesn't particularly matter if they survive or not. Just don't die, okay?" Taeyong said, looking at everyone.

"Yeah, we know." Jaehyun said.
"We're assuming Kara's going to be heavily guarded, so kill whoever is guarding her, too. BTS are just a thorn in our friends mission, anyway." Kun said.

"Well, that's true." Gabs grumbled.
They arrived soon after, parking across the road from the front gate.

"Let's go get her then." Gabs said, standing up, clicking her gun into a ready position.

"Just who the hell are you?" Kara hissed, facing a mans back.

"I'm not meant to talk to you." The voice grumbled out.
"Well, I want to talk to you, so we'll talk. Turn around." Kara grumbled, sitting up.
"Just shut up, would ya? I've just been sent here to stop people from entering." The voice exclaimed with a sigh.

"Wait.. do I know you?" Kara questioned, feeling recognition at the sound of his voice.

"Kara..?" He questioned, turning around.
"Seonghwa! I knew it was you! The hell are you doing here? Working for BTS?!" Kara asked, running up to him, into his open arms.

"Hongjoong accepted the job offer. We're hitmen, remember? We just do the job, and get paid.. we're not meant to have allegiances or relationships or anything." Seonghwa sighed.
"I'm assuming they're paying you a lot?" She questioned.

"Yeah.. that's why he took the job.." He said with a weak smile.

"Wait.. my friends are coming to get me- they're going to kill you.. you've got to go. I can't watch you die." Kara said, ushering him towards the door.

"I've been ordered to watch you, Kara." Seonghwa said.

"Okay..? I can watch myself. Please just go." She said, pushing at him in what direction she assumed the door was in.

"Kara, we need the money you know. We haven't been able to get jobs recently." Seonghwa admitted, looking away from the girls eyes.
"You know you could always come to me. I'd lend it out to you." Kara said with a small smile.
"We owe a lot of money to a lot of bad people. You couldn't help."
"But I could try to."
"Well, we're here now, and I'm guessing I might die. Although, my team is some of the best hitmen." Seonghwa smirked.
"If you kill anyone coming to save me, I won't hesitate to put your own bullet in your mouth." Kara hissed, staring at him through narrowed eyes.
Seonghwa just looked down at her, before chucking slightly.

"How would you manage that? You're in restraints, plus-" he said, pulling a small remote from his pocket.
"I was given this as a gift from Jimin. Pretty neat, eh?"
Kara stepped back, glaring at the man with annoyance.
"Click it, I dare you." She grumbled.
"Nah, I don't want to waste its batteries." Seonghwa joked, placing it back in his pocket.

"You're an asshole."
"Why thank you." He grinned, before sitting on the floor.
"Wouldn't we have heard gunfire by now? Are you sure they're coming?" Seonghwa questioned, tilting his head as he looked to the girl.
She tilted her head low, shaking it slightly.
"I told them not to worry about me too much, so who knows. Maybe they're coming, maybe they're not."

As if the man had jinxed it, loud bangs began to sound from outside the white room, a thunderous storm compared to the usual silence of the house.
The war of the two teams had started.

"Well, this is my cue. Go sit down, would ya?" Seonghwa asked.

"Nah, I'll stay here." Kara said, standing next to the middle table.
He pulled out the small remote, looking at her again.
"Go. Sit. Down. On the bed, please." He said, almost glaring at Kara, his face etched with annoyance.
Kara raised her hands in defeat. "Okay okay, calm down there."
With that she went and sat on the bed, cupping her head in her hands.

"Ji Woo, Jimin left his books at our house. He's got a test tomorrow! How the hell is he going to study!" I exclaimed, packing them into a plastic bag.
"I'm sure he can figure it out, Y/N. Don't worry. If he wanted them he would've came." Ji Woo sighed, taking another scoop of ice cream from the tub.
"What if he forgot? Technically if he fails it's my fault, because he can't study because he left it here. Do you know their address? Like him and Taehyung's and that." I asked, looking at Ji Woo with wide eyes, almost pleading.

"Nope. They moved recently and I haven't gotten the new address. Maybe try messaging him?" Ji Woo suggested with a shrug.
"His phone must be off, since they're not sending." I said, letting out a low sigh.
"Have you tried any of his other friends? Y'know, Jungkook, JHope, Jin, Namjoon, or Yoongi." Ji Woo asked.
"No.. I could try. I'll message Jungkook."
I said, quickly sending him a text.

Jungkook

Y/N
Hey Jungkook, Jimin left some of his stuff here. Could you send me your address so I can drop it off?
Seen

Don't leave me on read.
I'll just drop it on the doorstep if you're busy.
Seen

Seriously Jungkook, this is ridiculous. You're being such a child right now.
Y'know, I'll just get your address through the school.
Seen

Jungkook
Sorry Y/N, now isn't a good time.  Whatever it is I'm sure he could do without.
Have a good evening!

Then the messages stopped sending through, making me curse in frustration, throwing my phone at the couch.
"Ji Woo, let's hack into the school system again, okay?" I said, looking to her.
"It's just a few books." Ji Woo said, rolling her eyes.
"Well I also feel we should know where they live. They are our friends, after all." I said, shrugging lightly.
Ji Woo let out a sigh, before wandering over to the computer, turning it on, and logging in for me.

"It's all yours." She said, opening the coding screen.
I let out a small smirk. "Thank you computer camp."

Within twenty minutes I had gotten into the school system. It's fire wall was quite weak, after all.
I looked through the files of students, then found Jimin.
"Gotcha." I smirked.
I grabbed his bag of books, and headed out to my car.
"Stay safe Y/N! I'm going to stay here! I've got an episode to catch up on the new series we've started anyway!" Ji Woo called out, waving at me from the door frame.
"I won't be too long!!" I called back, before driving off on the road.

When I arrived at the address, I pulled up to a small cottage.
This didn't seem like his house.
I knocked on the door hesitantly, only for an older woman to open the door.
"May I help you?"
"Uh, do you know of a boy named Park Jimin? This was his school address.. he left some books at my house and I wanted to return them."
Something seemed to click in the woman's mind as she stepped aside.

"Ah yes, he's my son." She said, smiling gently.
"Come in, I can get you a coffee. You can just leave his books in here, he's not home. He's out with his friends, like most days." She said, as she wandered into the living room.

I followed, sitting down slowly on the couch.

"May I ask for your name?" The woman questioned.

"Oh. Y/N. Park Y/N." I said, shuffling uncomfortably under her gaze.

"What a lovely name." The woman smiled, before disappearing into the kitchen.

The woman's smile faded as she left the girl alone in the living room.
Brewing the drink, she grabbed a small dissolvable tablet from the drawer.
"As your assistant, BTS, I should help you with this, shouldn't I.." The lady whispered, placing the tablet inside the drink, watching it fizz, as a small smirk slithered onto her face.

"We win.."
