UNDER SUPERVISION [COMPLETED]

03 - BUDDY?

Chan's POV

"Is... Is this the Pledis University you talked about?" I asked the professor who dragged me here.

"The whole block is HYBE but this part is Pledis Uni alright," he clarified.

It was so sleek. Glass panels lined up against each other. Although it was a bit block-y but for what he told me, it housed more than just the university. HYBE is where he worked.

Entering through the automated door, Professor Choi simply shoved me past a door which had the letter 'B' bubbly stylised with a gradient of Blue and Purple. What kind of room was this? A blue room? What for?

Seungcheol's POV

"BUDDY! I have a new person to join here!" I shouted.

"Hello, Professor Choi. Please state the name of the new person," BUDDY went. The room glowed in all it's funky glory. Changing the colours' order with each reply.

"Go on," I nudged at the kid.

"Lee Jung Chan," he stated.

BUDDY continued to process the given information.

"Please move closer to the screen," rippled the colours of the room. He moved the screen, where the camera would check him and his background. Nearly every kind of scan!, as quoted the BUDDY system's creator.

The loading nature of processing data stopped.

Red took over the lights.

BUDDY repeated, "Threat Identified."

Chan started to panic. Crouching to the ground and covering his ears.

"BUDDY HOW IS HE A THREAT?!" I shouted at the program. "WHAT HAS HE DONE??"

"Lee Jung Chan has been seen in many areas around the block, using his ability to kill people," BUDDY responded showing surveillance footage from nearby street cameras and even cameras from inside nearby establishments.

One of them showed Chan walking into someone who then collapsed and stayed there. This freaked out Chan causing him to close his eyes as well. Poor boy. The amount of guilt caused by all this.

"CAN'T WE TAKE THEM AWAY INSTEAD OF PUTTING THEM ON SURVEILLANCE??"

I'm genuinely mad. Sojung needs to fix this problem.

The red was overtaken with the previous blue, purple, and white once more. Calming Chan, who I helped raise up from the ground. He seemed to use his hoodie as a buffer. I do wonder why.

Ah shoot. I must've freaked out the kid with that statement. After thoughts are horrible. I also used my ability again on BUDDY. Sighh.

"Ability?" BUDDY requests.

"What does it want?" Chan asked.

"BUDDY only takes in Ability names, nothing about how they work," I explain to him. All details about how each Ability works is hand written and archived.

Chan's POV

That makes zero sense but I guess they have another system of sorts for it. And Professor Choi's outburst also didn't make sense. What did he mean 'take them away?' am I going to be locked up again? Well that's besides the point.

Mister doesn't have a name but from what I remember before entering that building. My parent's always called Mister, Scribe. And Mister always texts me when he kills someone for me.

"Scribe's Text."

The rings of blue, purple, and white danced around the room. It was really cool and flashy and stylish. I wonder who designed the room?

"Lee Jung Chan will be under the surveillance of Choi Seungcheol for 7 days," the speaker blasted. So, I'm not locked up. Phew.

A 'ding!' was heard after just a minute. And there was a card with a lanyard.

"Put it on," Professor Choi ushered and I did. He then dragged me out the other door. I could see people walking about from one corner to another. And even on the different floors.

"Welcome to HYBE!"
