two worlds: jaeyong

28

(events include kidnapping, if you feel uncomfortable, then you can skip the parts.)

the doctor woke up and when he looked around, he was that the room he was in was...not his room. getting up was his first instinct but once seeing how he was bound to a chair, with strong ropes, it was clearly not possible.

"hello, dr. lee?"

taeyong's head whips to the side and he sees saalima also tied up.

"saalima, are you ok? are you hurt anywhere?"

"yes, i am fine, but i'm worried about you. you were hit pretty hard on the head."

"hit..." taeyong was confused and even when he tried to remember where he was before, he couldn't recall anything.

"it was after donghyuck was saved, everyone went out to make sure he was ok but then you were hit on the head, same with me. i woke up first and then you did."

"but who-"

"ahhh, so glad to see my two favorite people still alive!"

a tall brunette walks into the room, swinging his keys in his finger before catching it and putting it into his suit pocket.

"you two seem to have it easy here," arnold kneels in front of the two bound people and smirks. "especially you saalima, when my back was turned for just a day, i see that you went missing. you know, rashif was crying when he saw you were missing."

"don't try, i know he didn't," saalima growls back. her captor just laughs at her and turns his attention to his other prisoner.

"surprising how even after being out for a couple of hours, you're still this pretty," he brings his hand to stroke taeyong's cheek, which he avoids by moving his head.

"what do you want from me?" taeyong whispered.

"nothing, just that you seem to be one of much value to me," arnold smirked as he pulled back. "you know, in all the time i've known jaehyun, i've never seen him so infatuated about someone like you."

"yah, if you're looking for money, i can't give it to you," taeyong said, looking into arnold's eyes. "so if you really want me to do something, might as well be clear."

the man just laughs at how fearless the doctor is acting and in the time span of a second, taeyong feels his lip split opened while saalima gasps.

"i may not know what you're saying doctor," arnold puts his face in front of taeyong's own. "but i do know that this should remind what the situation is."

a pistol is then brought out and taeyong flinches when he feels the metal against his forehead.

"you don't have any control over this. whatever you say will only make your situation worse, not better."

the doctor looks to the side and he sees how saalima is shaking. that gives him the anger he needed to fuel himself with courage.

"if you really want to scare me," taeyong just stares at the gun on his head. "you have to try harder than this. you're not gaining anything by doing all this."

giving a hollow laugh, arnold just takes the gun back into its holster on his belt.

"you know doctor, you seem to be a good source of entertainment for me."

dragging his finger along the korean's face and using it to make the chin face up, he smirks.

"and considering what a beauty you are, i'm sure that we can put it to use."

again, the doctor didn't know what the man was saying but he hated the position he was in right now.

"boss."

thankfully, one of arnold's henchmen came down and broke the moment.

"what is it, can't you see i'm busy here?" the american dropped his farm and stood up straight.

"manager lim is here to see you, he has his payment."

sighing, arnold gets up to his feet and follows after the man.

taeyong's heart thumps at the mention of the familiar name. why was manager lim here and how is he related to arnold davidson?

"what do you mean you can't find them?!"

currently, the whole base was in a frenzy after it was reported two important people were missing and currently, the superhuman team and medical team were in the dining hall, talking about the next steps. for hours since the bomb threat, the others had noticed saalima and taeyong went missing, prompting for a search party to be set up. but even with that, they were no where to be found and this sent doyoung into a state of either a heart attack or craziness.

"doyoung, calm down," taeil tried to calm the anesthesiologist, but with no avail. he swears this is probably the most drama the military has been in since...forever.

"calm down?!" doyoung stood from his seat. "calm down? my best friend is missing along with a patient of ours and you want to tell us to calm down!?"

"yes, because nothing is going to help if you act like this!"

doyoung knew taeil was right. no matter how much he shouted or could get mad, it wouldn't be able to bring taeyong or saalima back.

"then what's the plan?" donghyuck sniffled while asking. he felt guilty, saying that it was his fault and how he shouldn't have brought the box inside in the first place. then it wouldn't give the base the distraction to kidnap the two people.

"we have our team coming in from china and they're helping us with this. it may seem like a stretch but if we start planning tonight, then we can be ready by tomorrow evening," yuta tells the group.

"do you have any leads on them?" taeil asks his team. "any clues or ideas on who could have done this."

"that's the thing," jaehyun ruffles his hair. "taeyong isn't in a position where he would be kidnapped. saalima, maybe..."

he trails off when a realization hits him.

"hey mark, did you take note of the serial number on the bomb? or any manufacturing numbers that could still be on it?"

"yeah, let me pull it up," the canadian takes out a laptop and starts typing at it. "bingo!"

he shows the screen and sure enough, it's one that was familiar to jaehyun and confirmed his thoughts.

"hey johnny, doesn't this look familiar to you?" jaehyun nudged his best friend.

"yeah, from training," the giant looks closer to the screen. "wait... is that what i think it is?"

mark nods and he types a few more keys, bringing up a file.

"it's some variation of the ironilver bomb, and it's a model that can only be purchased from the usa," he reads from the section.

"does this mean anything?" jungwoo asked the captain, who looks at his co-captain and they nod together.

"it means we found a lead."
